    Wooden cylinder heads, novel concept.

    Easy fix if you drop a valve.

    Put the engine in the seating area and steer from the engine compartment
    The 4 waste gates may be a problem plping

    Ryan Falconer has been building V-12 SBC based engines for decades.
    The main problem w/them is, being SBC based, they are 90* between
    the banks, so they can't run smoothly.

    But George, That Falconer V12 looks simply gorgeous!

    Here's a Jaguar V12 that was re-worked and marinized.

    Sean, I suspect they don't all look that nice.
    There's one in the museum in Clayton with a
    hole in the side of the block. That would hurt
    as they start at about $60K!
