Call Advance Adapters and see if they make a transmission plate!

Ok, where can I find a tranny for it and do you think even the mighty ATLAS will hold up to this bad boy.

WTF do you USE an engine that size for?? Looks like it's in an indusstrial appplication, not maritime. Wow...
Lucas - are you from Korea, or of Korean descent? I lived in P'ohang for a year in 94-95 and loved the country.

Imagine one of those powering the worlds biggest blimp.
Or a pair of them in a (big) planing cat hull.

I'd be quite suprised to find a enigne of that size in an industrial application. Odds are, since it was the first one built, it was built in that bldg. for testing purpose's. Industrial users "typically" will prefer to use multiple enignes instead of one huge one, note the space that sucker takes up, and it's fuel consumption rate.
I'd fair a guess at either the next generatiion of fast panamax container ships or super tankers. BTW: check the spec's, 102 RPM, max is probably 200 RPM. Don't think that's fast enough to move a cat hull that'll suport it's weight!
Sure is a beauty though, man I love diesel power.
I wish I could post some photo's of my dad's cruise ships engine rooms, but I'd probably get into some form of trouble for that.

Some amazing stuff there........
" These engines were designed primarily for very large container ships. Ship owners like a single engine/single propeller design and the new generation of larger container ships needed a bigger engine to propel them."
"Even at it's most efficient power setting, the big 14 consumes 1,660 gallons of heavy fuel oil per hour."
