No love for the Offy?

Personally, I like high cylinder counts:

Miller V16:

Auto Union V16:

Don't forget the Duesenberg's little brother, also a Lycoming engine, the Stutz DV-32:

My absolute favourite (I have two Duesenbergs apart in the shop right now and this beats them by a mile) is the Horch 853's straight 8.

It's so clean and simple, pictures don't do it justice:

With over 8,000 hp, does it matter what it looks like?

Yeah! A new GGA thread!

I usually prefer pre-war engines for looks, but a lot of the engines that Falconer builds are pretty.

I don't think it's the prettiest, I just want one in each flavor. 1uzfe

Aside from the fact that this one needs a hose tuck (and less tacky stickers) a boosted 1gzfe is a cool thing

In reply to jsquared:

You should hear their V12 in a Thunder Mustang. Awesome.

Speaking of great sounding engines, but this one is ugly. BRM V16
