Well with a Italian coachwork, German transaxle, and American V8 already present and accounted for what's wrong with a little German, especially when it comes in the form of a V12?

Ahh, common now. What's a little tube bending and welding after a V12 transplant? With that firing order, equal length may be a bit of a challenge; lot's of collector cross overs required for that arrangment.

Hey thanks for that John. I'm working on an all alloy solid roller Stroker Fontana engine, IR EFI induction, and mocking up a set of stainless 180s right now. So muched polished aluminum you'll need sun glasses when the deck lid is up.
Good luck with your project and keep us posted.
Best,
Kelly
