How about some flat 8 parts.
 
The pinion gear is interesting.

It is really cool. Similar design to the 4 cam engine, but a lot more cylinders and valves to time!http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1661780247.jpg

you'd think a set up like that would not ever hit the market... Your Canepa's, Woods, or other tenders/builder of old racecars would seem to be in the loop if it was legit & available... Those guys may have customers asking about these, but they ain't going the BAT route...

Does anyone here recognize the seller as a playah?

That’s a gorgeous piece of artwork. No wonder it’s in a museum.

These days heads are seen as a replaceable/wearable part. If anyone was putting together a Flat 8 they would probably remake the heads rather than trust decades old aluminum. Pieces like this cool, but will probably never see the inside of a motor again.

Good wall art, I like good wall art.

Whoa! Now that’s a man cave / workshop. Is that a complete body?

Just the outer skin. You should see the shop!

Holy cow. You’re killing me! Awesome.
Candy stores used to make my eyes go wide, but now….

Another version of Flat 8 madness.

That's a ridiculously cool engine!

BaT may be a good platform for my stub axle even though it would only be destined for a display car.

Wasn't there a rumored 911 race car that ran a flat 8 back in the 70's?

Not that I remember. But the Porsche family had a couple 914-8s for personal use.
