1939 Junkers Jumo 223 48 piston 24 cylinder 2 stroke diesel. It's supposed to have made well over 2000hp. Google "Junkers Jumo 223" and there is more information and some photos too.

Did a bit of reading - apparently the real success of that style came with the Royal Navy's use of the NapierDeltic 3 sided design used in torpedo boats and some trains in the 50's. Cool stuff.

Note: The bottom left input and output ports are shown incorrectly as reversed

Looks like you could put a dial on the front and it would keep pretty good time

Wild stuff e-man. All I have is this for today...................

That's funny Gas

I found pics on a forum from the UK. http://www.rodsnsods.co.uk/ Some cool stuff on there ,, different ideas. I liked the fact they kept the radiator and hood on it,, makes you still see the the original body,,, and the black just makes it too !!! Dig the trunk !
