    Yup. Only onboard fire I have been on the turbo got so hot it ignited the damn asbestos covering 10 miles off Hatteras. Found a whole new amount of respect for captaining that day. All he saw from the bridge was a tiny drop in oil pressure...

    My Detroit's are naturally aspirated, glad they don't have turbos. They will run forever. 44 years old 3700 hrs and running beautifully.
