ive just worked this out i think its right. a caterpillar d8k engine has 300 hp at 1400 rpm. they dont give a torque figure but 1126 lbft / 5252 x 1400 = 300 hp so must be correct musnt it ?

That's nothing, a Scania V8 makes 620bhp at 1900rpm which is over 1700lb/ft and 2212lb/ft between 1100-1400rpm..........

A man B&W 6S70MC ship engine makes 20940bhp at 88rpm with a torque of 390Tm (2820871lb/ft) and imagine that the biggest engine of this brand makes around 120000bhp so scania and cat are just small toys!!!
