[Trav]

I wouldn't want to be the guinea pig for this one. BTW this is a good website.

Jeez, another April Fools joke?? Har, har, har!!

Lol, two inline four cylinder engines, arranged in a v, sharing a common crankshaft.

That's a good one.

 

[KrisZ]

I would call it Twin Force.

 

[Trav]

No takers? Oh well.

 

[Y_K]

More like V8 is abandoning GM

 

[Trav]

Sad but true at some point.

It's the new Dual Quad Four! DQF.

 

[joegreen]

Not going to lie. When I read the title of this thread I was concerned for a moment.

I bet they could make one helluva dual-triple by cutting a cylinder off each 4 ba ger and joining them at the crank.

"Queen Mary has spoken.......bahahaha

 

[Shannow]

LOL, that was good.

 

[FCD]

Yeah, apparently all Ford trucks are going electric in 2019 too!

If VAG can call a common cranksaft a "W", then anything is fine.

I don't know. I look at that engine and see quad vee twins sharing a crankshaft...
