World's Biggest Diesel Engine

I used to own a sweet little 1984 Mercury Lynx diesel. That little car would get 50 MPG on the highway. The engine was a Mitsubishi, I believe.

Well, that was one end of the range of diesel engines. Today's FamilyFirst pick takes a look at the very farthest OTHER end of that range.

It's a blog entry giving info on an engine manufactured in Korea that develops 108,920 hp at 102 rpm.

Yowza!

You'll have to see the photos to appreciate just how huge this thing is.

The mechanics work on the engine from the INSIDE.

The completed engine has stairways to allow you to reach the upper levels.

So check out today's FamilyFirst pick to see just how massive engineering can get.
