I hate to think what the noise level was like in that workshop, and yet only one of the guys seemed to be using any form of ear protection... Shocked

The Detroit Diesel is a modular engine ranging from 2 upto 32 cylinders. The engine is a two stroke the supercharger blows the air in through ports similar to a bike engine, but in goes into the cylinders rather than the crankcase. The exhaust side has valves and a camshaft. Foden used a similar principle in the U.K.
