From what I understand, the new 12 cylinder 4400 prime mover is not of the hdl 6000 duetz design. I would tend that it is derived from the fdl 12 cylinder prime mover. I also heard that there are test beds of 16 cylinder fdl prime movers that have been tested at 6000 hp and above. The duetz hdl 16 cylinder prime mover has had problems with some crankshaft breakage. At least the 6000 hp ge's have run longer than several days in revenue service.
