the art of engine

wow.... thats crazy. how do you know that's the car?

It's kind of unique and well-known. I'm surprised it's on this side of the pond.

OMG never thought id hear about Nordbergs again yuk

Its hard to understand the size looking down the main journals of some of these

This puts it more into perspective

Not very arty but thought someone on here could id it for me...



Should be on craigslist with "just needs a tuneup".

Ours were 3000 hp each, and drove a single shaft with 2 pinions on one bull gear and had electric clutches. Maneuvering combination was one engine running ahead and the other one astern and selecting direction via clutch engagement. We never had any big problems with them.

This is my 6 Liter V12 Jag....



It's in this XJRS

I think its a 1926 Pontiac Split Six engine... a 186 probably.

This is on the GSF Explorer origanly built by Howard Hughes to to pick a Russian sub up off the ocean floor with a claw. It was converted in the late 90s to a deep water drill ship

'MURCA!

Very nice indeed.... I see these days here in Ulster you can pick various derivatives at anything up to £1500-£4000 ish....

I always liked the XJS and thought they were ahead of their time...

Thanks for posting such a fine example...

Don't know if it is exactly the same engine but I was looking through the window at out municipal power plant and saw something very similar with a Norberg placard. Big mother!

Gonna thread jack a touch. My brother was a Wartsila tech out of the Florida office for a few years. From '99 till 2004-5ish

Pry know him

I haven't been all through this thread, so I don't know whether you're into this kind of thing, but here is a triple you probably won't see in your buddy's Triumph.
