The engine of insanity....

[Supracentral]

Some insane bastard is dropping this 27.9 liter 3,400+ HP 24 Cylinder Detroit into a 359 Peterbuilt. It has twelve 8-71 blowers:

Makes an estimated 7,992 ft/lbs of torque.

I'm guessing the Butterflies are in case it runs away and can't be shut down

 

[Supracentral]

Probably just to keep small children and pets from wandering inside of it when it's turned off.

 

[IBoughtASupra]

Wow. That's some power.

 

[hvyman]

I think that's a little ways beyond saying its a little too much.

Crazyness.

saw this a couple years ago, still bad ass!

Psh... not even using turbos, lame. :nono:

Just kidding... wonder what would happen if you changed out the internals for a light weight and balanced assembly, then fed it with gasoline? Wait... I know... you'd have what Chuck Norris would drive! :rofl:

And I thought we had long engines.. My 7m looks like it would be used to START this big bastard

I think I just dirtied my pants.... dude that thing is massive and I could imagine what it would feel like in a truck!

Pfft....that's the same engine downstairs in my supra right now lol. That's amazing, exactly how will that thing ever get traction?

Can you imagine how violent that would be..

Can you imagine how violent that would be..

I'd pay $$$ to watch it

 

[IndigoMKII]

I'd let you pay $$$ to watch it so you can record it and share it to the masses.

This guy sounds like he is a street corner vendor trying to sell me a burger.

 

[Eman14j]

Winning!

God help if one of those belts should suddenly break.....

In a tractor, you have 8 tires out back... fit some nice wide, tall slicks? Oh yeah buddy, talk about traction. It's the guys with 2000+hp cars that still resemble street cars to some extent that surprise me how they get traction.
