This is just cool. Craftsmanship and a little imagination can get you a long way. How about a 5 Liter V twin engine based off a pair of Pratt & Whitney R1340 aircraft cylinders. The rest of the engine was hand made. Cast aluminum cases, Hand machined crankshaft and connecting rods. All the engineering proprietary to this build. Ultimately, this engine will wind up in30's board track racer inspired by a "Flying Merkel".
