lol!!! its ------- 2 stroke! he took the easy way out. Ive already posted mini v8's and v12's thay were supercharged with a hand built supercharger and they ran. and had things like valves and camshafts.... 2 stroke is deffinatly the easy way out on that project.

He looks like the Evil guy(Zeb was it?) from Saw 2.

"With 18 cylinders having a bore of 5.125" and a stroke of 7.25" per piston or 14.5" per cylinder, this engine had a swept volume capacity of 5,384 cubic inches or 88.3 liters. There were 3 stages of development from the initial design with engine driven blower for scavenging then being turbo-charged, turbo-charging with charge cooling and finally “Compounding” using an axial turbo-compressor unit within the triangular central void.
The performance ranged from 1,650 bhp at 1,500 rpm for locomotives, to 2,500 bhp at 2,200 rpm “sprint rating” for FTB`s (bmep 92.lbf/in2) both mechanically blown, to 3,700 bhp at 2,200 rpm (bmep 130 lbf/in2) when turbo-charged and charge cooled. Note that the complex “Deltic Compound” prototype reached 5,600 bhp output on test during 1956."

Funny how he took a gigantor engine and made it miniature... 88.3 liters!
