in australia the 8V92TA was rated 475 horsepower,
it possable it would make that with the intercooler fitted.
-
@MattytheDem TAB is twin turbo ,not TT like many think. TT stands for "tailored torque" which first came about in 1978 or 9.Those were the "fuel squeezer engines".

@The215x Rudolf diesels first engine was not 2-stroke,it was a four stroke
-
@kblackav8or and to the next person that wants to call it a supercharger: its a SCAVENGING BLOWER NOT A FUCKING SUPERCHARGER!!!!!!!!!!
-
@kblackav8or a motor that DID use the blower as a supercharger was the 275 or 300 horse iron lung cummins motors of the early 50s
-
@kblackav8or and also this motor would be an 8v92TTA because it has 2 turbos instead of one
-
@MattytheDem I know that. In fact I said that. I have to keep correcting the idiots that call them superchargers.
-
@kblackav8or a Detroit will not run without the blower
-
@The215x the blower on a detroit creates very little pressure. since the detroit has a sealed crank it makes no bottom end pressure to self scavenge. the blower is just there to move air through the motor. i believe it makes no more than 5 or 6 psi, i could be wrong on the psi though
Rated 643@ 1800, cranking out 450. A bit shy, it appears.

A 2 stroke diesel engine needs the blower, a 2 stroke diesel is considered naturally aspirated if it only has the blower.
