If you click on the link that someone provided it shows info on the engine.. Check it out-very cool. Peak hp and tq at 102rpm, thats a big bitch. The article states that the primary purpose of it is to power Container Ships.

Ahhhh. Nothing like having to climb a couple of flights of stairs to get to the top of your engine.......... I'd like to see the nitrous bottle for that thing and the intercooler for those hairdryers.

The NOS bottle would be pretty interesting to see, but intercooler is probably fairly small, since it would likely use an air-to-water heat exchanger maybe 20'x20'x10' or size of a bedroom but still pretty big.
