O YEAH I FORGOT TO MENTION THE MOTORS IN THE ENGINE BAY ARE V16 twin turbo twin supercharged EACH displacement Unknown
 
holy shit that engine would look good in my car... besides that good luck on the job..
 
wow, I think that just might fit in my batmobile-ish cars engine bay...just maybe ;) How much power does it put out?
 
if im not mistaken they told me in the ball park figure of 2000hp and 3100lb ft of torque somethin like that they even have a enigne dyno in house for these beasts i dunno specs on engine room ones though

man, I didnt know mtu's could spin up that high. I work on man marine diesels, are biggest motor is a 12 cyl quad turbo with 1550 hp. They only redline @ like 2300... I guess it depends on the duty (heavy, medium, light; light having the highest redline, but shortest lifespan) I know that mtu's are in much larger boats than what I work on, like those super mega yachts. good luck gettin a job!

You better realize how much fucking metal that is spinning around. Plus its almost all power off idle.
 
first...there was the SR20DET swap, then the RB25 swap, then the RB26, after we finished up swapping all the japanese motors we went to the LS1 V8...the next step...a 12 cylinder 32 liter twin turbo boat motor. FUck yes!
 
yea its sordove impossible seeing how the engine ways as much as the car it self, pluse there is no mounts in the world that can support that motor in 2 spots.

i'm down for the worlds first mid engine 240.

if a beete (and an eclipse) can support fighter jet engines we can have boat engines.

once again it is impossible, the car can not hold that wheight.

actually its impossible if there talking about the engine in the 1st pic because the damn thing is bigger that the 240 itself! pic just makes it look smaller :bigthumbu
