Thanks. Your critique is what I was asking for.

Big business has to wait, but the owner-builder doesn't. I think Scuderi's proprietary in-line VR-4 block isn't as suited to development work as a VW flat 4 boxer. The biggest problem I foresee is containing the pressure in any intercooler in the connecting passage. And sourcing a custom crankshaft and camshaft.
