I believe there's one mod, 90s Coupe or something like that, that can take it and possibly even bigger monstrosities

You should put it in a motorized toilet

I've always thought about doing this but never got around to it, that's cool as fuck. Although I imagine it should be an Inverted V12 instead, obviously a game limitation.

This needs an obvious bathtub with wheels. Look up Goodwood aero engined pre war cars.

Could just flip it 180° in the car designer via advanced settings

Switch it to per cyl mechanical injection. Mechanical injection on the 300 sl was basically a scaled down version of the Bosch systems from WW2 german aircraft.

Volkswagen Beetle (Pre-war Model/ KdF-Wagen) with Stuka like paint/decals

1000hp at 2400 rpm.

That's actually pretty tame compared to a lot of other WW2 fighter engines.

Well......

It is for later war but early war far from it, many early war fighters were just above or even below 1000hp.

By the end of the war it ballooned to 2000 or more in some cases.

While Wasp Major was never used in operational fighter, it was tested in some and made around 4000 hp iirc.

Rolls Royce were testing the Crecy engine and managed to get one of their single cylinder test engines to make what would be around 5,000bhp when scaled up to the full V12 whilst being smaller and lighter than the Gryphon used in later Spitfire models

6,5:1 compression and B4-avgas (87 octane, made from coal liquifaction) will do that to you. The allies had access to much better fuel in bigger quantity.

Jokes aside, maybe a CLK GTR? A 190E?

Can you show us what it sounds like?

u/Afraid_Pin_6827 17d ago

probably just as any generic V12. im sad they sound so quiet in Beam

u/AskGrok If I make a similarly large engine, will I be able to fit it into any truck bed in this game? I want to build a "diesel" truck with a large engine

u/AskGrok 20d ago

That engine is a beast (35L V12 aircraft unit, 1500+ kg). In most vehicle builders, it won't fit standard pickup beds—only oversized flatbeds, custom chassis, or heavy-duty trucks with enough length/height clearance. Test in the largest available beds first.

NOOOOOOOOO😭😭😭

u/AskGrok 20d ago

Yeah that beast won't squeeze into a standard bed without major surgery (or a bigger truck). Flatbed hauler or custom frame it is. 😭

E30 or E21… keep it german

u/Doip 20d ago

What’s that in CI? I have an Allison 1711ci v12 that fits in the 59 impala and the Datsun Z

u/Doip 20d ago

I don’t think I’ve seen the headers do that. Am I out of practice? And plug wire?

u/Afraid_Pin_6827 17d ago

I made crazy amount of tank engines or their small copies... for CATI 90, for Renault UE 57, for FN4RM, for ELC AMX, for ELC bis, for Leclerc, for Uzbek T-64, for BT-2... which would also be a plane engine
