That is bad ass!! 6 million lb.ft. of torque at 102rpm... that is some low end torque!!
The guy that did my heads has a, probably, 4 foot tall valve in the shop, from an old diesel aircraft carrier, and there is a crank out in Destin that is probably 20 feet long, but they are NOWHERE NEAR THE SIZE OF THAT THING!!!
(I want one of those pistons... 38" across? It'd make a nice TV stand!!!)
I wanna see the turbo for one of those things!!

I'd like an oil change please. Yes sir that will be 1.2 million. Holy shit. What I want to know is who turns the wrenches to torque the head bolts down?
