    W9 Four Stroke Engine

    Yes... 9 cylinders in a W configuration. 3L engine for a mid-mount sports car - impressive engineering to say the least!

    It's better to not pass and know that you could have than to pass and find out that you can't. Wait for the straight.

    The W format was used in the early years of aviation - the Napier Lion engine being one such design....it used to run at 1250 rpm......not quite the 12500 of your one.....check out
