OMG ! Is'nt that something. I saw a Boss Hoss recently but I think this is much more appealing. Looks to be very well done.

1600ccs? I guess that is two 800s together?

I saw the V12 vid once - I think it was the 2600? two 1300 I-6s made into one motor like the one pictured above.

I thought that guy did a 1800 first? two 900s?

the two 1300's turned out to be 2300 or 2400 due to the airplane like rod design, i'm assuming he used the same design on this motor too.

where two pistons are applied to one bearing via a joint on the rod that splits into two, like the old radial aircraft engines.
