Decription of Detroit diesel 8v 92 series?

A Detroit Diesel 8V92 is a two-stroke diesel engine. It is an 8-cylinder engine with a 736 cubic inch displacement--8 cylinders with 92 cubic inches per cylinder displacement. If you've got one of these, don't try to get any more than 736 horsepower out of it--one horse per cubic inch. You're probably giggling: "more than 736hp?" Most of these are in boats or fire engines, where you need a lot of power. You don't see these in trucks largely because they're really heavy and trucks can only weigh so much. If you put a big turbo on one, you can pull 900 horses out of it easy...and shorten its life dramatically.
