Finally, a really BIG big block
Ok, it won't quite fit into a cobra, but this is the largest engine I have ever seen. And it's Japanese, makes 5.6 million lb/ft of torque

Big blocks
Is it real or a replica?
|
replica
It's a Replica of the one they built before this one!
grumpy |
Its the next Generation Cammer ! :D
|
Cool!
I'll take 2! Will they fit in my garage?:LOL: |
Mr. Fixit
....I figured if anyone can do it YOU can! Therefore, I've just sent you a deposit---the plan is---we forego the "significant engine setback" built into the Butler---and then...........**) :JEKYLHYDE :LOL:..well you take it from there---maybe with an assist from Ed Combs......
Chow, :LOL: |
How many QTS of oil will it take, and were is the dip stick??
|
Big block
I thought these were built in South Africa!
|
It's more like a great big block!
Catch ya later Ed |
Nah!
Its really a Stroker Small block!
Seems like the Stroke to Bore ratio is a bit excessive. I don't want to be anywhere near it when it throws a rod. Although at 102 RPM that's probably not a problem. :3DSMILE: JB |
At 102rpm on a scale that size I bet the moving parts are still moving fast enough to soil anyones pants standing near it during a catastrophic failure.
|
Yeah sure....
But can we hotrod it and put a supercharger on it?
Who said...."You can never have too much horse power" ?:LOL: That is one big Mutha. |
can I keep my TKO or do I need to upgrade to TKO 2 when I order this engine?
|
Re: Yeah sure....

I wonder how much torque it's starter motor has to make, to turn that monster over? |
I work on these. While they may be jap owned, Sulzer is obviosly a German engine, and German design. They don't use starter motors, it injects "start air" into the cylinders in the proper sequence, then you open the fuel rack and bang.....Bang...BangbangbangBabababbaba.....! If you want to go in reverse, you stop the engine, slide the cam for the fuel pumps and fire her off backwards!!!!!! And yes, you stay in line with the crank if you suspect trouble brewing! We could idle ours at 19 rpm.
|
Wow
I wonder if they'll be able to get it smogged?
|
Cool motor! What gear head couldn't appreciate an engine THAT BIG!!
19 rpm idle speed. I tell you the "numbers" on this thing are just amazing! Yeah, if it "feels" like trouble, get in-line with the crank, even at 19 rpm, LOL. Ernie |
Nope
You guys missed it.
Oldest trick in the book! Everyone knows Japanese are small people, the motor isn't "THAT" big! :LOL: :LOL: :LOL: Eric :MECOOL: |
DOH!!! .....and I fell for it hook line and sinker! ha ha
Ernie |
Will I have to go to a C6 to run that in my Mobra?
:3DSMILE:
