Real or fake?? FE SOHC V-12 Cammer

I've seen a picture elsewhere on the forum of a Ford SOHC FE V-12 Cammer and I was wondering if that motor does exist?? Could use some info on it also.... And more pictures!! Thanks guys!

 

like this one? don't know if it was ever m*** produced

 

That's the one! I was never able to find any info on that beast. Or any other pictures of it. Thanks for posting the picture of it!

 

Looks Photoshopped to me. I call BS.

 

That's what I'm thinkin' also.. Damn!

 

It sure had me fooled. Nice job on it though!

 

I was just imagining if something like this would have been capable of making at least a 1000 hp.

 

Yeah, it does. Look at the exhaust pipes. The two 'long" ones are identical at the top in the bends, pixel for pixel. It's fake.

 

If memory serves, the guy who did the Photoshop work on it is a member of the FE forum and clearly stated that it was fake when he posted it....just for fun...still received a lot of **** about it, though.

 

So you're saying it's not like the Oldsmobile Hemi?

Doc.

 

An army tank would be one of the only application's it could be used in!

 

The original.

 

Thanks Stu for posting the real one!!

 

It clearly has 2 engine mounts on the visible side.

The idea is cool though. 641 inches would be sweet!! Would have been around 980hp ***uming the "rated" power was 657 hp with dual carbs. 657hp / 427in x 641in = 986hp. And we all know how accuratly they rated engines back then.

 

There were so many great concept motors built in the 60's. I remember more than one cover of Hot Rod showcasing a half dozen or so very interesting designs. VERY interesting. I think one may have been all Pontiacs. Cammers/Hemis....

 

-The Corvair division supposedly toyed around with making a flat-10, as a musclecar upgrade from the flat-six.

Doc.

 

I found another original.

 

hmmm wioseguy! nyuk nyuk nyuk!

 

I think they're real. Ooops, sorry ... I thought this was the Linda Vaughn thread!

 

I liked those 60's Caddy V12 prototypes. I think they were El Dorado exercises.

 

I guess you mean these?

One at the top left was supposed to be a V16

 

bump......

 

This one's real...


Prototype flat 16 Porsche, built in 1969 or 70 when Porsche was still trying to figure out how they were gonna kick everyones *** in the Can-Am series... Mark Donohue drove the car this was in, and he said it was so long, you could hear one end of the engine fire up before the other!
