I'll share mine....here's a current picture. needs a little cleaning up but it there, in, and running. Also a side note....don't judge my overflow tank....desparate times called for desparate measures..... lol!

[dr.occa]

Sorry about your engine and bay decepcionez. The guys were telling me about it when we met up in Austin.

Chris, your overflow tank is actually the new factory one in a whole lot of 86s. Especially in GZEs for some reason. A friend here in HOU with his DLI GZE runs the same "factory" overflow catch can.

The Emma Maersk’s Wartsila-Sulzer RTA96-C turbocharged two-stroke diesel ship engine is the most powerful and most efficient prime-mover of super ships in the world today.

The RTA96-C is the largest engine in the world and is available in 6 through 14 cylinder versions, all are inline engines. These engines were designed primarily for very large container ships but similar large diesel engines run large ships of all kinds. Ship owners like the combination of a single engine and single propeller for reasons of efficiency and cost of production vs operation of these mega-vessels. As ships continue to get larger with new generations of larger container ships being built each year shippers like Emma’s owner, A.P. Møller - Mærsk, will need a bigger engines to propel them.

To help relate to the size of this monstrous engine consider that one cylinder bore alone is just under 38″ and the stroke is just over 98″. And the alone engine weighs in at 2,300 tons and is capable of delivering 109,000 horsepower.

I don't think you'll be able to find a replacement starter at Auto Zone.

[86boy]

oh I'm sure you could.... just too many idiots (at least where I live) would have a hard time knowing what a starter does....

even though the starter is probably the size of large SUV

[hotdoghogie]

Holy crap decepcionz this wasn't with the new carbs was it!? That is super scary man! My biggest fear. Looks like an excuse to redo the whole bay though. That could've gotten really hairy man.
