It's an April Fools joke. That is the engine out of the 787B.

Did anyone else see how many spark plugs there are on that engine? Am I a noob to just realize this? Incase you didnt understand that, Look how many plugs there are per housing. Why?

It's not.. the 787B has 3 spark plugs per housing.

However.. the intake system resembles very much to the 787B. You can see the guidance bars for the trompets to slide up and down.
