The largest engine I'd seen previous to this was the one that powers the Norweigan Cruise Lines M/S Seaward. I was on a cruise that I won through Engine Rebuilders Ltd (a Ford Reman back then), and the crew gave a tour of the engine room. Pistons were about the size of 208L drums. Hmm ... I wonder if they run those on bio-diesel from kitchen grease?

Of course the pay-off is a staggering 5,600,000 ft.lb torque at 102RPM I've seen a 12 cylinder version of this power plant and it is staggeringly huge. |

I have always loved the hood belts. These days with all the fake "barn finds" you see, ( I LOATH that trend) you don't know what is real and what isn't without doing a through inspection. I remember being at the NSRA Western Nationals in 79 and there was a 29 Roadster REAL fifties hotrod with those hood straps and I fell in love with the idea. Very "functional" get down and RACE sort of look, I dig it.
