Had problems with the camera, the engine is taller than my mate, the light bit at the top is the turbo, and the flywheel is up to his elbow

With these stats im sure it is still more economical than my V8

 Even at it's most efficient power setting, the big 14 consumes 1,660 gallons of heavy fuel oil per hour.

   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

NICE  :twisted:
