Reminds me a bit of a chap Called Wes Harrison
Not bad however the coolest sounding motor ever...in NZ at least....was the v12 Allison in Len Southwood's boat Red Head from the 60's racing on picton harbour...now in the Southwood museum....when it went by it sounded like a low flying spitfire which echoed off the hills around picton....absolutely awesome....

The V-1710 is a supercharged liquid cooled V12 with a bore of 5 ½ inches and a stroke of 6 inches giving a capacity of 1710 cu in (28 litres).reached 3800rpm at a boost pressure of 76 in hg corresponding to a power output of well over 2000hp on the chart. The deafening thunder of an Allison operating well beyond its war emergency rating was an experience not likely to be forgotten by spectators.
