Most giant engines are cool, but not much to look at, but this one is genuinely beautiful. It's as if they made an effort to make it look good. It makes me want to buy a truck just to have Frank make an adapter for it.

My lathe is probably big enough But I had a thought about giving Jay Leno a call and tell him I would be up for building a hot rod or a trike for one if he bought the engine and the materials. Might even be a new series for the discovery channel the most ridiculous things to make with a boat engine
How about a chain saw now that would be a hua hua

The last place I saw it was in the timing hole when we were setting the injector pump But don't worry it probably sheared off during test firing it is probably in pieces in the bottom of the sump now

seen it happen, mechanic dropped a screwdriver down the open "valley" in a v six the cam eventually found it, broke the camshaft and the engine casting, but I think the screwdriver survived.
