If VW made a flat 8 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
Brazilian Flat 8 I know, not a Type IV, I would think it would be close enough to a Type I to be done the same way? |

@Mueller are you still on the board?
Did you find anyone making cases or cranks? I am close to starting up this project Mill and lathe here, just getting them hooked up. |

@Mueller are you still on the board? Did you find anyone making cases or cranks? I am close to starting up this project Mill and lathe here, just getting them hooked up. I still think copying the original flat /12 design with the center supported crank could work for two stock /4 cranks welded together. You need to eliminate the tendency of the crank to want to bend in the center under torque. It was also bloody brilliant to run the fan in the center straight off gears on the crank.
