yeah... look at the amount of diesel.... "At maximum power, the Liberty Belle consumes about five gallons of diesel in 300' (that's .05 miles/gallon)"
looks like the 4 turbos burn the diesel very good at higher speed... how much boost?????

Yea, straight six torque is simply amazing. Was watchin truck pulls the other day and the cummins powered trucks clearly had much more torque than the v12 detroit motors, the cummins truck's frame were twisted so much that the drivers tire was about 3 feet off the ground at the end of the run. But I have to admit the v12 detroits do sound cool, but not as cool as a cummins

By the looks of it, it seems that that engine has only two-stage turbocharging.
Six cylinders have been divided into two banks, each bank having 3 cylinders. Do a plain old two-stage charging on each bank, and hey presto, we have four turbos under the hood.

You mean there's an ENGINE under all that plumbing???
Yeah, I'm sorta curious about how much boost he's hitting too...
Look at that frame torque-up! Egad!
A 19liter "K" engine, hmmm...
Got a KTA-19 on a big genset at work... Cool engine... awfully big iron.. I am picturing it smothered in turbo's and plumbing... WOW!
What kind of inj system do they use on that truck?
