I don't know that "that" one runs 8's. Most younger guys have no idea what these things were able to do. As mentioned above, a set of expansion chambers creates a monster of doom on a skateboard. The last 2 stroke that I rode was an RD350 that had been worked over. I'm not much of a biker, but this little booger made my CB350 look like a moped.

If I was going to suggest a list of some of the most important engines in history, it would be: The 2.9l flathead four used in the Ford Model T The Volkswagen aircooled four The early Oldsmobile V8 The Rolls Royce Merlin V12 (not car-related, but VERY history related)
Matt KDrive fast, turn sharp, signal sporadically for no reason.

No need to apologize. Those are some amazing pics of engines that needed to be seen. My contribution is the Nissan VQ30DE that is commonly found in the Maxima '95-99. Smooth, uber reliable, and combined with the manual transmission is a very fun car to drive. I think it pretty much set the standard for fun to drive V6's in a mid-sized sedan.

Weighing in at 2300 tons (the crankshaft alone weighs 300 tons) the Wartsila-Sulzer RTA96-C is the worlds larget internal combustion engine...and its turbo charged. It is 89ft long and 44 ft tall. It produces... 108,920 hp and 5,608,312 lb/ft at 102 rpm and consumes 1660gallons of diesel fuel per hour...

| Quote, originally posted by Juniper Monkeys » |  The Voss Nose Haupt/Grandmother V12. At over 19,000 long tons, it was the most economical power-plant built in the undying forges of the Voss Nose Fancy Juices Division. First fitted upon the '96 VN Box Box, it was used in over 84 different models, finally being summarily canceled in 2011 after it became hard to find loopholes in pedestrian safety laws large enough for the Haupt/Grandmother V12 to pass through, because it would occasionally electrocute the pedestrians with its prehensile spark plug wires. Nevertheless, the engine's fame was such that the fan club eventually became a full-blown cult, whose practices are seen above in a rare engraving from Il Boticelli's 1511 "Codex Holy Balls." Modern dietitians are unable to determine whether the bleating flock of Haupt/Grandmother disciples in the illustration are bowing or pooping. |

I'm very partial to the Audi inline 5.Why? They LOVE boost, make ridiculous amounts of power (someone is trying for 1700whp right now)...1300whp has already been done a time or two, and stock crankshaft and block will do that just fine. Also, they were built with such precision from Audi that they are known for not needing a rebuild up to 300k miles regularly. Plenty of people take them apart at 250k plus and the cylinder walls look like they just came from the factory. I've experienced this first hand with one of mine. They are fairly rare...so to me, there is some appeal there just because not everyone has got one. Here is one awesome example: 
one of my favorite videos of all time http://videos.streetfire.net/v...0.htm and just for the hell of it here is another example http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VDZwAURY3uw
look up jonus racing or paavola on youtube to see more glorious Audi I-5 goodness.

I didn't see a picture of one in here (but some of them are loading slow for me at work, so maybe I just missed it), so I'm posting one.Here's an LS7, but this basically covers the whole line of LS engines from GM. When it comes to being compact, reliable, light, and cost effective, they're hard to beat.
