I've wondered about old mech's idea of two separate engines. The output of each engine could be geared together with one of them going through a clutch or torque converter or maybe both.

Syncing them up, if it would be necessary shouldn't be much of a problem. You would have the two engine's coolant systems tied together which would keep the standby engine at operating temp.
