Square 8? 

How about the "Twin Crank driven intermediate shaft, 32 Valve, 4 Cam, Oblong 8 cylinder".  LOL.

Brave and Bold. . .  Awards to Hold.

I like this innovative design. Wish I was on the team to create this engine(s). This is the part of LSR I enjoy the most. I'll love to watch the liner run, but more so, I'd love to see more of it back at the shop.

The best to ya Rick.

Coupled 4's - not quite square - how about Kinky 8?

Rocky had an exit speed with Ack-Attack at 394 with 2600 cc.

Costella went 352 in G/BGS with a 1520 cc, 348 in G/BFS.

400 seems kind of a stretch. But Jack is kind of a stretchy guy, ain't he?

Downright sexy. Any details or just a teaser? :cheers:

Well as most of you have guessed its a GSXR1000 based V8, U8, Square 8 .
Were calling it a V8. it's in a 22 degree V.
It's a project that my dad and I are working on with future versions in 12 and 16 cylinders
the engines in the NA state of tune we will be running in will produce about 220hp per litre.

Rex

we plan on using a c4 trans with a torque converter and will run NA first with a turbo in the future
