came across this at work today, just hanging around on a hoist and wondered if any one would notice if it dissapeared into the back of my Doka

sure would sound phenomenal

continental aircraft engine, so probably not cheap.

If you want some SERIOUS air-cooled grunt you could always try to shoehorn a Magirus Deutz air-cooled V8 truck diesel in there. That cavernous engine bay suddenly starts to look a bit small!

most likley to an aircraft motor.
They only rev to around 3000 rpm at redline.

Anything more and they require a build.

Unless in Tractor Pulling Spec !

But then they are very short lived.
