morabu Posted August 8, 2006 Report Share Posted August 8, 2006 i see the speedboats, and assume that's what it's for but is that a semi-truck turbo diesel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 4dooralero Posted August 9, 2006 Report Share Posted August 9, 2006 What size turbo is that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farkas Posted August 9, 2006 Report Share Posted August 9, 2006 Almost looks like a helicopter engine or something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparky Posted August 9, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2006 It goes in the hydroboats. They do 100-150mph barely touching the water. Im in seattle right now where they were racing. Pretty cool stuff. The blue angels were out the same days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buelliganx1 Posted August 9, 2006 Report Share Posted August 9, 2006 It's an allison V-12 aircraft engine from a WWII area aircraft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
desperado Posted August 10, 2006 Report Share Posted August 10, 2006 Fucking Allisons.... Those are 'the shit' for the tractor pullers. Problem is that they are from WWII and there are no parts around for them any more. They displace something like 1750 cubes, but they ain't all that for power any more. I will say this is the first of them I have seen with a turbo setup though. If any of you follow tractor pulls, you can always spot these a mile away, and can always expect the pulling tractor to be a piece of shit they are sitting on. Yea I know tractor pulls are a bit hill billy, but where else are you gonna find 5 Keith Black Hemi's bolted to one vehicle? Or better yet 3 or 4 J-53 turbines on a single platform?

Mensan Posted August 10, 2006 Report Share Posted August 10, 2006 I used to work on Allison Gas Turbines in the Navy. Badass. Edit: Allison = Rolls Royce. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
