Great stuff Andy!! 8-) 8-) 8-)

That engineering is on the small size though

petrol or diesel - does it matter?

Not really. Then again, it's a blown V12. What could possibly go wrong, other than at the petrol pumps?

Kevin

that is the  sound of a two stroke deisel fantastic

ok it may not be heavy engineering but 8000 hp from 8 liters isnt bad going

I have reckoned that the German made film Das Boot is an absolute classic and may just be the best war film ever made,

Anyway apart from anything else I love the engine room scenes.  There is one scene were Johnna listens to the banks of lovely sounding engines after a major repair, but unfortunately I cannot find it on Youtube!  So I post another scene which incudes a couple of glimpses of those engines.  Just listen to those beautiful beasties!! :

How 'bout some aviation engineering? 8-) 8-)

Both examples of "heavy" engineering Zulu are superb!! 8-) 8-) 8-)

I've been working on a power upgrade for one of our engines recently.

delivers 850HP at idle and 1500 HP at full chat
..... with 3100hp available for very short bursts.

Is this for a certain British tracked vehicle?

Need to go British for a really good sounding two stroke Diesel

Even better with a V16 as well

[andyc]

this is proper engineering and where my roots are.

My great grandfarther was an enginer at Burrells. I've been on the foot plates of a couple of engines and they are a right bugger to steer.

The show engines i think are the best.

That's beautiful Andy! 8-) 8-) 8-)  A true piece of British engineering

Two more examples of heavy engineering at its best;
