Its a 25480L straight 14 turbo and makes 114800bhp and 5608312lb/f @ 102 RPM

pics....




Turbo



Crank journals



Its that big there are ladders going down



Pistons



Head studs



Puny 6 cylinder version.
The versions are 6-14 cylinders and use the same parts so some pics above are for eg 10 cylinder version.

The engine is in the ship the Emma Mærsk which has a top speed of 29.3mph and the fuel usage is Fuel consumption at maximum power is 0.278 lbs per hp per hour.
So by my calculations it does 10 metres to the gallon

ive seen a few that cant be much smaller than that, looks fuck all like an engine when in a ship though, including the exhausts its got to be 90+ ft high, about 5-6 decks on a ship. you should see the brakes these things have, the calipers are the size of a medium size hatchback

Brakes on a boat...? Or is it a brake for the engine itself?

The highest turbo/compressor in the world is 50.5 BAR so lower than that
