Apparently they were developing up to 12 cylinder version of this engine. They had a 200hp 6cyl one in a impala converted to FWD. INTERDATSING~!

I'll never get used to that belt setup, brilliant as it is. Really clever to use the alternator (generator?) to change the direction like that.

I hope you noticed the mechanical fuel injectedness.

I noticed one of the velocity stacks was shorter. For packaging reasons? Ahhh this piston doesnt need to go as fast as all the others.

Wow, that is pretty freakish. Was belt life shortened as a result?
