You can get a TT V8 made from two Hayabusa engines fused together.

With its separate cylinder blocks, this looks like something that’d be relatively “easy” to build.

What about the crank and front end belts, pulleys? Does someone make a kit for em?

Some company called Hartley makes them. I'm not sure I'd they sell it as a kit or only pre-fabricated.

They have a build page: https://www.h1v8.com/maxi-v8-build.html
Wow! Looks like the whole block is machined from a billet.

Engine only weighs 200lbs, and makes 400hp at 10000rpm! Perfect motor for an exocet Miata!

Need to call Nelson Racing Engines for a set or mirror turbos. But that is like my opinion. I like symmetry.

IKR! It’ll be so damn fast....
Dont know the rebuild interval on the engine tho (assuming it needs to be fairly frequent)

It’s been around for a while, I think; they used this engine for the Ariel Atom V8.

The crankcase is machined from a billet, and the crankshaft is custom, but the cylinder block bolts to the crankcase. It uses two cylinder blocks and heads, reversed from each other. cam drives opposite of the rod-journal offset.
Basically two Hayabusa I4 engines facing opposite of each other, joined to a common crankshaft. Then turbocharged on top of that.

i mean....hayabusa motors are good for the same life a car engine is good for. even at high RPM. just needs more servicing (comparativly speaking)
