OK, I want to thank Ecky*, Frank Lee, Piotrsko, cRiPpLe_rOoStEr, mannydantyla, and Grinder74, for helping to guide me through this exercise, and showing me how various parts of it won't work, Synchronizing the two engines without much cutting into the engine cases, and the staggered firing pattern I came up with because of the unbalanced deactivated cylinder pairs (two trying to pull vacuum at the same time). Seems the only promising idea is the combined clutch/shift pedal, and I'm not sure there isn't a better layout for that. Anyway, I'm abandoning this thread. Thanks guys.
