I hate to do another Tractor Pulling thing but some combinations are hard to avoid. Inspired by the 30's radial racing car post earlier today, I found an enormous Zvezda M503 143 liter diesel missile boat engine put on methanol to make 8,000 hp at 2,500 rpm, crammed into the German tractor puller 'Dragon Fire'. Details inside...

42 cylinders in 7 rows of 6. it should make a normal 3900 hp at 2200rpm but of course when you know diesels, like a PanzerBanks, and decide to make an adjustment, you use methanol and make an adjustment. given that the 8k hp happens at 2500hp, the math yields an insane 16,800 lbs. torque.

Do you hear that odd noise? Yeah, and it sounds like those guys from "Hennessy" trying to cram this badboy into a CTS-V coupe for that J-chin guy.
