Thanks V(ery) Max!

Just ate too much Xmas Sausages, Eggs and Hash Browns and laid down to groan.
As I was moanin, groanin and wanderin in and out of consciousness, I began to muse over the possibility of "bolting" 2 Yamaha VMax engines ... (let's see that will be a "V" 8 with about 260 HP) together all tunder the hood (bonnet) of a 7.
Is anyone as daft as I or has anyone actually done this?
Oh dear... Too much port... Floor rising to greet me!

You'd be my hero if you could pull that off..

But wasn't there some problem with the VMAX? I believe they turn the 'wrong' way or something..

So spin the diff over the other way around

The problem that I can see is that they are already shaft driven.
That means that the engine(s) will have to lay out transversaly (port to beam). Rescued attachment Vmax.jpg
