Say something about 8.0L, I was going to talk to saintly engineering about getting a alloy block made of a V12, 8.0L using falcon 6 heads.

Estimated targets 450Kw @ 5800 rpm , 800Nm @ 2600 rpm. A 380kw @5250 rpm version may be provided as a engine for limos, boats and aircraft.

Removing spare tyre, adding 40L fueltank in depression, 100L total. Upgraded brakes, Carbon fiber front guards, bonnet, boot. 380mm front brakes.

If your going to make something, make it unique. A 8.0L V12 four door sedan would be unique.

A Sainty motor that only makes 450kw would be pretty unique

:
Why the hell would you get a V12 "made" with such low targets, you could make more that that with an I6. You give Sainty a call and see what they reckon.
