Looks like dual V8's to me. Can't help but think there's going to be some thermal issues in the middle. Gotta give whoever an A for effort though.

Cool With the shocks in the front

It look to be single cam to me? Especially With not-wide valve covers But I dont know what engine though, shallow V too, maybe a 60 degree?

There seem to be something familiar With it for some reason though.. But what!!?

Gary Kollofski's Pro Street W24... Twin V12 actually, he also is building a Pro Street V12... But not any V12, it's a boat's engine...

I think it is a BMW V12 like in the old 850`s and such?

Without the dual plenum/intakes it really shrinks!

Lots of head scratching on that one for sure. Definitely innovative.

Here's my question...how do you mount two engines side by side to a single transmission? How does that work?

Looks like a super stock pulling tractor multi-engine setup to me.
