Wow! That's very impressive, I have worked on some very large engines in my time (Waukesha AT's and VHP's), but nothing like that! I wonder how long it takes to rebuild one in the field? Probably at least a few months! I would love to see the torque wrench used on those fasteners.

Man, the 2009 4Runner is gonna be HUGE.....

Kind of makes the Ford/Navistar PowerStroke seem like an engine for a model airplane. Yikes!

Think they'll put it in the new Tundra?

Wonder what an oil change costs for that baby. :biggrin2:

:bugeye: WOW. One cylinder displacement is a 1000 times bigger than a Corolla's entire engine. I imagine a hoist is needed to install the piston.

Is that what they use to rotate the Earth?

Oil changes have GOT to be a *****!
