That's got to be a petrol engine on some kind of test bead, or maybe a boat.
Straight 6 or V12 ?

Petrol V12 on dyno apparently. No road airflow to keep the exhaust cool.

advanced timing, such as highly tuned engines have, cause that effect, tho I have seen it happen on ex WD petrol trucks, such as 4x4 snowploughs working flat out....air flow and zero degrees didnt even stop it.

I used to work in an engine test facilty.....even turbo D's could glow like that at 900 ~1100 deg C

Currently driving Mercedes E300 w210 on 100%WVO that has been centrifuged and filtered. Water injection fitted .
Also ISUZU Big Horn ( trooper) 3.1 TD runs 100 %wvo also has water injection...now taking it's summer break.
