I work in the nondestructive evaluation..NDE..field. One of the short term jobs I had when I got into it about 20 years ago did some wet magnetic particle testing, which some may know as Magnaflux on semi-huge crankshafts. They were about 15ft long, someone thought they were for locomotives. I say semi-large because these would be baby sized compared to a ship engine crank. To go another route I have always been amazed by the offset throws of the crankshaft used in the even fire GM 3800 engine, see example in the link. In the late 80s Buick produced the Regal with a turbocharged 3.8 V6 245hp stock. A quick Google showed someone has a modified one pushing 800hp. The amazing part to me is that 5 of the 6 cylinders push their power through that offset throw at the back between cylinders 5 & 6. Any kind of reliability to that arrangement seems incredible to me.
