I used to work for a Waukesha engine distributor. They make a 16 cylinder
engine that is 9390 cu in. Yes Cu inches. Each cylinder has an individual
4valve head that weighs about 175lbs. They use a four cylinder engine of
about 1200 L (90 something cubic inches) as a starter motor. Sheesh.
How would an LBC That's LARGE BC run with that type motor.
