[QUOTE=whiskyBound;346885]what Ci and numbers does a cat that big put down? Considering some of the guys here have their 5.9's putting down Kenworth type HP and torque figures I'm a little curious and ya have any pictures of the ship that thing powers?[/QUOTE

If I remember right the Cat 3516C marines engines are made to run 1600-1800 rpm( so they are a lower rpm application than the 5.9 Cummins) and produce 120-160 hp per cylinder. It has been A while since I have looked any of the paper work from the dynos but it seems like thats in the neighborhood I remember,

i recall 3516C being putting out 187hp per cylinder & being 4210 Ci

~3000hp rating @ 1650rpm

*edit*

Sorry, 3000hp is rated for a marine engine that has been modified in a big trawler here in Iceland

OEM is 2,350 bhp

nice pics been a while since i have seen carnage that bad. hate to see the repair bill on that particular engine, we had a few 3508 powered 777 haul trucks and the repair bills were quite high when the engine had issues.

it was still under warranty, so they avoided a big bill.

Hey Chief... I've seen way too many tips blown off on C7's. Being a FORMER shop forman for a Cat dealer. The great pic's that you posted, reminds me of why one needs to keep track of water in the fuel. Thanks for the pics....
