The most powerful internal combustion engine in the world.

Not even a Scoob's drivetrain could cope with this!

*$(^&&kin hell !!!!

I thought our V16 twin turbo KV major's at work were powerfull, but they only have 10,000 bhp

Mind you 109,000 bhp at 2300 tonnes only comes out at 47 bhp/tonne, which is poor really so I don't think I will be doing a swap

Imagine if you put a rod through the block !!!

We had a cam lobe come off and that was bad enough.
