I'm pretty sure there wouldn't be a problem fitting it in with a few minor modifications, I'm sure one of the engine builders will be along shortly to confirm this lol, on a serious note, that's gotta be the biggest engine I've ever seen, is it from a boat or something.

I honestly don't know, I stumbled across it on Linked In of all places. I can't see what else it would be for other than a large ship, that's a serious bit of engineering though and would love to see some facts and figures for it.

I think you might need a bigger fuel tank

Would save a few quid on lowering springs if you managed to shoehorn that baby in

Would defo be slammed


Have a feeling that may be an engine from a triple e type container ship
