At one point I really did think of recreating a S12 engine...
S12? Would that stick out the front like a Land Rover power take off?

Lateral space would be more of an issue I think... unless of course you'd make it a 12-in-line...

It's actually quite a compact engine.

What about a VW W12?

A straight 12 compact! Wiki thinks not: "A straight-12 is a very long engine"

I suppose that there's the 1905 Wolseley: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straight-12_engine

I assumed by S12 he meant Speed 12 as opposed to a Straight 12.
