Callaway Cyclone V16 engine

just a development thing, as I understand it... Looks like all they did was slap 2 V8's together...

........

yep, this is the way Peugeot constructed its V12 for the 907, by putting 2 V6s togehter.

i love the little spring thingy on pic 6, like thats gonna hold anything if things go hectic

lol...
But it`s actually very common to hold exhaust manifoilds together with smal springs like that in/on reducing-joints(don`t know anny good word for it:D ) on race cars... Not to much stress on those parts exept for the engien twisting.. therfore the springs alow movement in the exhaust joints... without the manifoild falling to pieces....:)

And by the way... this is one sick engien....:eek:
Cant wait to hear the sound of this!!!:D
But will it sound like my favourite 16 cylinder? the BRM H-16:)

a new cizetta?
