Repost. They also had a show about it, a year ago.

Still cool to look back at old stuff though. Cool pics!

[PoorManQ45]

ya, I didn't see it the first time.

[PoorManQ45]

wow, I just noticed that I'm almost to 500 posts. I think I should do something special when i reach 500.

Give me some ideas.

That's freakin' awesome. Only problem is, anything big enough to use that engine is going to NEED that much power.

[NIGHTfall_240sx]

Maximum power: 108,920 hp at 102 rpm

...pshhhh thats nothing, if they put a Vtec head on it they could easily reasch 500,000hp

[NIGHTfall_240sx]

oh btw, anyone know what the hell that engine is for anyways???

EDIT: These engines were designed primarily for very large container ships.

i should just read more

Answer: Creat a whoring thread with a title along the lines of "Woo Hooo" or "About Time" or "Finally Reached 500" or even better "Attn. All Postwhores"

Just make a thread about it like I did every time I reached a special number of posts. Any thread with this subject matter will attract postwhores everytime.

PS: Scratch my last thread title. It'll attract TOO much attention.

Oh and Ive seen that before, but my question remains. How the hell do they transport that thing into a ship? Do they just build the boat around it. I dont get it.

Where should I make it? In the General or Other section?

[MinisterofDOOM]

Others! Me and Repo and 1der could have a lot of fun with a thread like that!!

5,608,312 lb/ft at 102rpm <<<that impresses me more than the hp numbers

[Ace 2.0]

[D1SR240]

wow, very interesting engine

[StrangeLove]

Think that might fight in my 240?... I think i may need to bang out the firewall abit...

Hmm, I'm not too sure if that guy's all that right about it being made in Japan, from the writings on the banner in the background, it looks like it's being made in Korea.

It is made by the "Aioi Works of Japan's Diesel United, Ltd."

They had a special about that on the discovey channel or was it TLC, I can't remember. It was a good hour long segment.

....burnout contest...?

[prigo]

Oooooold

[Movingviolation240]

the latest varient of the F100-PW-200 turbofan will make just about 100,000hp @ mach 1 (NOT static) and it's small enough to fit in the bed of a normal pickup truck

Gotta love turbine engines..... continious combustion rules

That seems enough to tilt the earth off of it's axis. That's insane torque. It could burnout on soft-slicks until oblivion itself.
