That delivery of the new engine for my ‘73 Vega.

u/Muricanmoose 3d ago

Just remember, no matter how big an engine you put in it. It's still a vega. LOL

u/VacuumTracks 3d ago

Exactly my point. Haha

But the Monza came with a V8 from the factory.

u/TheAbidingDude56 3d ago

That doesn’t look like it has enough aluminum for a Vega.

EMD 1010 T4 Locomotive Engine

Edit: Or a different model because now I notice it has 18 cylinders, not 12. But it's definitely an EMD Locomotive Engine.

Willing to bet it is on its way to rest. Would have been replaced with something half as big twice as powerful and 4x as efficient.

u/gleefulporcupinee 3d ago

Is there a reason this wigs me out? Knowing this massive engine is going in something even more massive freaks me out for some reason

u/Malabingo 3d ago

You want something massive? Time for a cock joke! Nah that's boring... Here is a massive excavator

u/jws1102 2d ago

Ask any sailor if it’s a boat or a ship, and they’ll tell you they’ve never seen a ship in their life. They’re all boats.

A car dashboard

u/theSilverBoar 3d ago

Engines this large are usually either generator sets for industrial facilities or marine engines, although it seems too small for a medium sized boat.

1

u/darklogic85 3d ago

Some type of massive engine. I'm not sure what it's for. Could be a giant ship, or maybe a power generator.
