W12 engine

[Swann, Benjamin R. (BSWANN)]

Yes - I just got an updated copy of Greg Ravens "VW Performance and tuning"
which show some pics and an even more outrageous W18 - three VR6 engines all
sharing the same crankshaft.

Wonder if I can squeeze that into the 4000Q.

The new issue of AutoWeek (hot out of my snailbox a mere 2 hours ago), 
  tells us that the new W12 will be unveiled at the Paris  auto show, *this*

  month, under the hood of a new A8.  "The compact, all-alloy, direct 
  injection gasoline 6.0-liter delivers about 450 hp, plenty of reserve over

  the 360 hp ["DUH!" ed.] found in the performance S8 (itself due on US 
  shores early next year as a late 2001 model)." 

  Sounds like two VR-6s, conjoined at the crank, to yer kindly ol' Unk...
