The perfect engine swap!

[slyedog240sx]

It speaks for itself.The Wartsila-Sulzer RTA96-C turbocharged two-stroke diesel engine is the most powerful and most efficient prime-mover in the world today. The Aioi Works of Japan 's Diesel United, Ltd built the first engines and is where some of these pictures were taken. It is available in 6 through 14 cylinder versions, all are inline engines. These engines were designed primarily for very large container ships. Ship owners like a single engine/single propeller design and the new generation of larger container ships needed a bigger engine to propel them. The cylinder bore is just under 38" and the stroke is just over 98". Each cylinder displaces 111,143 cubic inches (1820 liters) and produces 7780 horsepower. Total displacement comes out to 1,556,002 cubic inches (25,480 liters) for the fourteen cylinder version. Some facts on the 14 cylinder version: Total engine weight: 2300 tons (The crankshaft alone weighs 300 tons.) Length: 89 feet Height: 44 feet Maximum power: 108,920 hp at 102 rpm Maximum torque: 5,608,312 lb/ft at 102rpm

[samxini]

I love how the motor has a deck surounding it so you can walk around on it.

[Chris28]

That turbo is small...

[duffman1278]

The crank bearings themselves are just massive.

[LOVERboy]

[Kalypso]

[gregfarz78]

[Black on Gold]

Will this drop right in my S14 or will i need to modify my crossmember?

[S13Joe]

Well this has nothing to do with 240's and its a repost.

[xX RB Xx]

s*** i wish i could have 102k hp at 102rpm

[urcaptnspeaking]

[mattblancarte]

Thought I was going to see a picture of a 13b rotary. It's the best swap.

[24j0hn]

[amolao]

[hilux30]

I wonder if an SR transmission can handle this one

[spooled240]

An interesting set of pictures of the assembly of one of those monsters

[phobs]

Will it pass smog?

[IanS]

That thing is freakin awesome.

From the pictures, it looks like the turbocharger alone is bigger than an S chassis.

[domiballa]

changing oil in that thing must be a bish

[spooled240]

if i was stupid rich, I would make huge performance parts for it. Like a giant FMIC a huge HKS mushroom filter and a giant BOV.....awesome

[DanThaMan]

you cant put a BOV on a diesel! especially a 2-stroke at that. I wonder how a gas engine that size would do? And I wonder how smooth this b**** runs.
