Saw that at the Detroit Autorama a few years back, awesome engine!


The V-12's are getting a bit more popular with the traditional rod crowd, cool engines, and something different from the normal V8 flatties. The V16 would be cool, but I think the length would be an issue, and cost would be another one. V16 Caddy stuff is big $$$$! What about a V8 flat head with Ardun heads? The OHV conversion makes that little engine look pretty cool.

Definitely check out the H.A.M.B. killer site and a wealth of knowlede on traditional hot rods and their parts. Just do an intro first!

Hello Scott and Craig :cheers:

Yes we should have the caddy V16 as an crate engine for camaros :woot:

But the actual need for the nostalgia engine is old wooden boat. Not a chris craft runaboat but similar style boat from 40s.

I am working with the hamb site and let you guys know is something comes up!

Boat? :hail: :thumbsup: AWESOME!!! Go for the V16 then!


FYI- My great-grandfather was a boat builder and we have a 1955 Morrison in our garage. Not like the classic chris crafts, but who cares, my great grandpa built it 52 years ago.

Definitely keep us posted with pics!!!!!:unibrow:

If you don't have an engine builder, and you do have unlimited funds, you might want to check here: http://uncommonengineering.com/

They do some crazy stuff!
