I saw that the other day. It is incredible, but I'm having a hard time wrapping my ahead around why? And exactly how the drivetrain is going to work out :thinking Pretty bitchen though..

I have a swept with that motor. There are a lot of "how the ef" questions I'd like to see answered. Looking under my hood today, there is massive interference with the frame, steering column, gear box, linkage, brake master, leaf springs and more. Not to mention whatever is on the back of the motors connecting them to the tranny.

that's pretty amazing !
i wonder what the real world performance is like..

i've seen plenty of hotrods with two V8's mounted in line,
but i don't recall seeing this bantam style attempted before
is there a gearbox mounted before transmission go to from two output shafts to one input ?

Picture 25 in the last link might have some of the steering column linkage.
