If you don't understand why anyone would want something so big and ugly consider this, Brucie has a nice platform about halfway up the engine that would allow Stooge #3 to stand atleast 3 feet over everyone elses' heads.  I think it's a power trip thing, but I'll just let the readers judge.  Here Brucie has one flywheel partially in place so that we can move the pistons, if they're not stuck that is.
