All but the end cylinders use twin plugs too. What are the power specs on that?

Hey I think that might be the 16 Zylinder 917 spyder. "Porsche 917 the Winning Formula" by Peter Morgan mentions that the later turbocharged motor underwent a difficult development, but the flat 12 saw flash horsepower figures of more than 1,500 hp, and he describes the grinning test engineers as coyly "half petrified, half elated".
