how do like this size for a engine
Now that's my kind of engine!
It would consume vast quantities of fuel, however.

what's it for?
I want to know the same thing. It is huge. That is my kind of engine too. 
Impossible to run this:
1. Okay, the compression of the 8 cylinders, and the size of it would make it ****in hard to start (duh). The only way to get this going would to be using a huge tractor pull engine... or 20 chevvy big block engines.
2. THE SIZE! Imagine the vibrations and noise when going? It would be like... 40 on the rhictor scale... enough to snap in half.
3. Fuel! Each piston uses the whole width of the cylinder in fuel, and about 1/100th of the height of the piston. Now... this would be about 100 litres PER cylinder, x 8!! Not counting the fuel needed to START the engine.
4. Their pretty dumb for having such a huge sprocket on the end, as the smaller the sprocket - the more speed (Speed is what you want... right?)...
Bleh

Monster without any possitive aspects. Someone needed advert, and this is the best way to advertise some parts or oils...
The only thing i can think this would run IF it WAS possible, would be a super tanker.
Definitely not impossible, seen'em this big before. Probably a slow speed diesel for a really big tanker, as mentioned. The bigger they are, the more efficient they are. So if you looked at hp / fuel consumption, it would likely put most every piston engine we see day-to-day to shame.
That is quite an impressive engine. So much power at such low rpm as well.
Well, well, I'll tell you...
That engine is for my new sports car... Power, power, power!

Yea my engin is almost done 
It is going to power my wagon

The lighter, the faster.
Puting a hardcore engine in, doesnt have to make the car faster, but slower. Since the weight and air current, friction and more effects it a lot to. It would also put a lot of pressure on the front tires...

I belive that engine is more for a machine rather then a car. It is huge! So dont' really think it is for a car.
Yeah, defo an engine for a big boat. Very nice, would love to see it going!
Huge engine!!
Looks like is for a really big ship.
By the way, just 100 RPM, really slow yet really powerfull.

Everyone is asking what it's for...
Here's what I figure: (I don't have any inside informaiton)
Its for a oil-burning power plant.

I also think this motor is not going to move, prolly used for letting huge machines work.
HA HA FIAT PANNDDAAAA WOOOOO!!! lol probably less than 1.0!!!
Here is the smalle Fiat 500, which was replaced by the chinqechento. With only a 0.5 engine (500cc) The average man could lift the front off the ground.
Edit: I apologise, its a highly retro Seat Ibiza

Actually the larger the sprocket on an engine the higher the output speed.
Think about it. 15 teethe turning at 101 rpm or 29 teeth turning at 101 rpm, which will move the connected sprocket, drive chain or belt faster?
The only thing that I know... is that I want a ladder going down into my cylinders 
. No fair!
In fact, I would actually like the see the completed engine, or even just more pictures of it... google isnt being much help there though. And, of course, I would like to see the torque numbers on it :p.

I think the rotational speed is low because the linear accelerations and speed of the cylinder have to be low. Image a four ton cylinder moving at 20 m/s... You have to be able to stop ot and push it the other way !
There's loads of dynamics forces (bigger elements are needed)
Anyway, it's probably for a large boat... (Has anyone seen the titanic, you actually see the connecting rods, when they try to reverse their engine : it's 2 stories high)

I've seen that engine in a magazine. It was for a reallllyyyyyyy biggggg Truck that moves rocks or something, altough I'm not sure.
Grtzz,
Edit : It has 10 cylinders, There is also a 14 cylinder variant. 1820 liter/cylinder. It uses a couple of deciliters diesel for each Cylinder to make one turn.

It is probably for running a drill of some sort.
damn!, i only asking how many diesel spend that engine
It's probably counted in hectoliters !!!
Those engines are generally for large gunships and aircraft carriers and also freight ships. Discovery channel did a special on massive machines and they featured one of these engines. Simply amazing to think about the amount power these produce. These are truly engineering marvels.
with that engine i think i could fly to the moon

Now there's an interesting theory: it's ment for an airplane...
it would be an interesting theory, but the weight to power ratio would not be enough to get it off the ground. Maybe if you wanted to build a star destroyer, but then you'd need jet engines, not combustion engines. lol
