Brutus & Mavis shouldn't be parked that close together... only in Satan's own most fevered dreams can the offspring be envisaged. That, or those of some really twisted engineer...
@0:10 the positive camber freaks me out. Imagine if they knew a bit more about suspension geometry and worked a bit of neg camber on the I beam front ends! They would have worked so much better
No it's V12 Packard from WWII. Variants were used in airplanes and as marine engines. This particular one came out of a PT boat, which had 3 of these. Each cylinder has 4 valves. Each exhaust valve has its own port, thus 2 pipes per cylinder when you straight pipe it.
That's because all of the fuel is being detonated in the cylinder instead of burning up in the exhaust. It looks beautiful but it's extremely inefficient. A V12 engine built to Honda specs would have been the greatest racecar of that era and would probably have set the land speed record without even trying.
That's because a civic combusts more efficiently. This is basically spitting fuel out of the exhaust and the hear is igniting it. A civic probably has more power too.
