By: FuryPaul 11/23/2010 7:41 PM I shot this at the Gearhead Get-Together at Thompson Machine in September. The cab is from a '46 Chevy COE 2-1/2 ton work truck and the engine is a 702-ci GMC Twin-Six. The four heads make it look like two V-6es hooked together, but it's actually a single twelve-cylinder block. They were made for heavy trucks for many years. According to an ad I found while researching the engine, they made their peak horsepower and torque at only 2500 rpm! |

By: ChaserX 11/25/2010 5:08 AM Ahh The hot rod. Goen back to the 30's. Later they designed V12's with two V6 supercharges, operating with dual ignition. Interesting to see they've choped the front |

By: jonx4x4 11/26/2010 10:35 AM I actually got to see one of these V12's in person once at the USA6x6 shop in Lawton, OK. Now that the shop has closed down, I find myself often wondering what happened to that cool old industrial engine. |
