Anyone remember when Warren Johnson ran a flat plane crank in his blue and white Olds Cutlass Pro Stocker? At the tree, the thing sounded like a cross between a chain saw and 2 stroke diesel motor.Last edited by studemax; October 28, 2021, 02:22 PM.Act your age, not your shoe size. - Prince

When I read the opening header,
I thought right away of a "Boxer Engine" !!
Corvette is going to build a Pancake Engine? A water cooled Corvair with two more cylinders?
Then I looked at the pix,....And same thoughts, in a V form, Shakes more than a Ugly Stripper !!!

Yes flat crank v8s tend to shake like mad. The old timers that ran flat cranks in flatheads had to safety wire everything. Probably the most famous v8 with a flat crank was the NOVI first raced just before ww2, and raced into 1965. It never won, but it was awesome to hear running.Doing it all wrong since 1966
