[N/A-PWR]

I have always wanted to put two red sixes together too create a Red  V12,

it would be called a XU4 as a XU1 is a 6 cylinder and a XU2 is an 8 and a XU3 would be a 10 so a XU4 would be a 12 Cylinder.

This would fit in the LC / LJ Torana and would be a lot of fun.

Tilting the red six so the cam is at the centre of the ''V'' the other half can use the cam.

There would be the case of recreating the Block, but all parts would be the same after that.

I have seen the almost use of the Holden prototype V12 using two V6's, but to no avail in the Prototype Car.

Any thoughts anybody on the Holden V12 ideas. Dave I

Hi DJ,

The opposing piston would share the same journal

Hi Chloe,

Great Information there, where I did not know that, but in saying that, cubic inch has a play, also short stroke and big piston diamenter does as well. Dave I

Correct, XU2 is a V8 (SLR5000), but XU3 is firstly a neutral headlining (up to HQ) and later (HJ on) either a 6 or V8 (14.5cwt Sandman). XU4 is a 6 or a V8 too - XU4 is a 10cwt HJ-HZ ute or van. XU6 is a V6 HSV abortion.

Damn - XU4 is already taken.

We will have to make it a XU12

Perth guys seem to have small pistons, you too Dave l ?

You must be hangin round the wrong blokes chole.

[Peter UC]

Would you have all the exhaust and inlet ports in the V or everything on the outside?

[Uncle Chop Chop]

Reverse fit one head, problem solved.

[N/A-PWR]

Hi Peter UC,

I think the Exhaust and Inlet manifold would be on the outside as the Cam is in the center of the 'V' and the Distributor, Spark Plugs and Oil Pump needs to be in the Centre from the Camshaft.

All a bit wrong but could be done. Dave I

 

Hi Vick,

Yes turn One Head around. Dave I
