na... it only spins at 102 RPMs. That's 1.7 revolutions per second. You could probably focus on one spot on the drive shaft and watch it turn.Tracy

you can count the spokes on the starter wheel from a Gasplant Compressor running at 300 RPM (50,000 HP est). I am lucky to have been an oil feild welder, I got to see alot of very big compressor engines. Biggest I aver saw was a 12 cyl. with piston bores big enough for two of me to stand in. It ran on natural gas. It was cool to watch run as it ran at 250-300 RPM and you could see the push rods and rockers as they were on the exterior of the engine

Originally posted by smokeum99tabetter hope you dont have a back fireActually, if it is like a normal size diesel engine. Fuel is injected after the piston has compressed the air. The fuel ignites and burns as it is being sprayed into the combustion chamber.Originally posted by NightrageWhen the compressed fuel ignites, it must be like a decent sized bomb going off
This says it's a two-stroke engine also. Trying to find more info on it...
edit:yup, same as a little one...marine diesel

As sad as it is, even though that's blatently obviously sarcasm, there probably are ricers around that would think that. Just watched some of 2F2F tonight with my girlfriend. I can't believe that was passed off as a non-comedy.Originally posted by OverworkedThat's nothing there's a dude over here in a Honda who says he has 2x the hp and can smoke it.
You guys remember the ricers from that post about a week ago? The one's saying that domestic drivers are jealous of them because they can rev to 9,000 RPM's? lolRed 95 Trans Am: M6, Moroso CAI, Magnaflow, Spohn sway bars, back to life as of 2/15/10!!!
