Thanks for sharing, that is some seriously cool stuff. Do my eyes deceive me, or is that wrist pin retaining circlip nearly the size of the S65 bore?
I won't be in for the swap any time soon....... Signing the documents for the new house with the builder tomorrow....... The cars will have to take a back seat for a little while!!!!

Yes you are right about the wrist pin circlip, it is roughly 2.5" in diameter!

Actually we have bigger! The CAT 3524B is 117L displacement and 4.875L per cylinder and we have them in our 797's

MTU makes an 8000 series for stationary and marine applications....... is is 8L per cylinder!!!

EMD makes great engines, and two strokes are great in boats!?

Might have to beef up the transmission........ This engine has approximately 6350 Lb/Ft of torque at 1900RPM. Not sure on the peak torque number, it is hard to find a dyno graph on larger diesel engines, they generally just list the peak HP numbers. I would assume the peak torque numbers to be between 8000 and 10000 Lb/Ft

Very cool photos. It's missing an Akrapovic Exhaust and some supercharger kit though....Do you have any 6-13mph times too?
It has dual 10" exhaust pipes and with 4 turbochargers I don't think it needs an SC!? Do You?
