Stroker motor

[phat46]

Here's a setup for a big stroker motor! 😄 Actually that's a rod and piston from a 1000' Great Lakes freighter, the Mesabi Miner. My friend took this picture, he's a wheelsman on the boat. They are currently docked at the Soo Locks repairing an engine. They cracked a cylinder liner and wiped out two rod bearings. One of the engineers told him the rod cap weighs 167# !!!!! The ship has two 16 cylinder engines, each hole produces 500 h.p.!!!!

I'd need a bigger engine stand!

Must use an angle grinder to set ring gaps !

Those are balanced within what, 50 pounds of each other?

I have ground cams for that size engine. Good thing we had a bridge crane over the  grinder....lol

There's no replacement for displacement!
