From what I've read, this one went into the Emma Maersk, one of the biggest ships out there right now.

1,660 gallons of heavy fuel oil per hour
and i thought $30 fill ups were bad.

That"s what I think of too! what the hell size are the machines that make this stuff? Even in components the size of them has to have one heck of a WIDE LOAD sign to deliver them.

Is that true? I haven't done the math so it could be true. That would be funny if it is true.

Yeah, probably true.

That makes 4.27HP/L but 220TQ/L

To give you an idea of that a 350 with those numbers would be 24 HP and 1254 TQ
