flukey-lukey Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 WOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWW!!! thats a nice piece of kit!! I want one as a garden ornament Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisSZ Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 jesus, that fookin huge, but something that big its not very powerful!! Yeah, but what's the torque like?? Bearing in mind it's a diesel I'd imagine it to be pretty high and it's making serious power at comparatively low revs!! Would be interesting to see a petrol engine of similar size/capacity as a comparison LOL :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wahey - that could be soooo much fun in the right hull :) Well, thats the rather dull bit. Theres two of these in our new 37 metre Yacht...near on 5500 bhp but in a boat weighing about 175,000kg, that will only push it about 25 knots (say 30 mph).
