They were beasts! They have quite a history of applications and uses as well as "cult following" in hot rod applications. Their weak point was their spindly crankshafts and were notorious for breaking when rpm or compression were exceeded...They made a unique and unmistakable sound with straight pipes and could be heard for miles on quiet nights... http://www.curbsideclassic.com/blog/...s-at-1600-rpm/

I think it's the same concept that the 2 stoker Detroits used. Basic configurations that used the same parts and could be attached together for a larger motor.
