This has been floating around the "other" site for some time. Thats really an engine. Ken... Look at those head studs. I'll bet the test out to about 10,000,000 psi breaking strength each.
I've seen this many times over the last couple years. My favorite line is...
"Even at its most efficient power setting, the big 14 consumes 1,660 gallons of heavy fuel oil per hour."
How would you like to pay that fuel bill at todays prices. That would be $4150 per hour at $2.50 a gallon
Heavy crude oil is also called bunker grade. We ran it in the boilers in the generating stations I worked at. We had to heat it to about 150 degrees before it was injected into the furnace at around 1500 lbs. The filters we cleaned were terrrible to work on and time was always working against us. The bunker would freeze up at 102 degrees and acted like stinky black candle wax. If it got on your clothes we just threw them out. It wouldn't come out with anything. Even gas wouldn't cut it. We ran millions of gallons every day of that stuff.
