J.J. Posted August 22, 2004 Report Share Posted August 22, 2004 M.A.N. B&W version of the same thing Yep, now we're talking. The 14 cylinder is a "paper engine" only, 12 cylinders are the only working ones at the moment. The main problem here is the lack of progress made in propeller design for large slow speed 2-strokes. Large 2-stroke engines and container ships are my bread & butter and I'm proud to say that at the moment our company has the largest container vessels in the world. This achievement will not last to long however, rumor has it that MAERSK Line have ordered ships with a container carrying capacity of 10 000 plus containers, these will be the first ships to have the 14 cylinder engines. Like I mentioned before, these ships are designed for the Pacific crossing, taking "Walmart-Made in China-by a Taiwanese businessman crap" from China to L.A. and moving empty containers back to China. As for the engine, BenBB came up with a design that had CPI out frames grafted on to it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

banshee04le Posted August 22, 2004 Report Share Posted August 22, 2004 Dayum. When I put my engine together, I'm always worried about making sure the crankcases and everything are cleaned up spotless. That big ass engine, you got guys walking around inside your crankcase with dogshit on their boots...dropping screwdrivers and shit... A crane and 3 guys to drop in one half of a main bearing .
