Not on the one you posted pictures of. I just figured since you posted a picture of it that maybe you had seen or worked on it.

A buddy of mine saw it in person. He's an engineer and his company sends him all over the world working on different projects. Those arn't his pics, he just sent me to a link off those.

I seen that website a couple years ago. That engine just amazes me. That it can be that big and still one of the most efficient engines ever built.
