Back in the mid 60's GMC.put two 301 cu.in.v6 engines together they used one long camshaft and crankshaft,The blocks were made so they could be bolted together with dowels to align everything and made one heck of a v12 engine they put them in semi's. they had 2 distributors and 2 carbs,2 oil pans from the outside they looked like 2 engines AH,THE SOUND THEY MADE! kinda like an ALLISON aircraft 12cyl.they didn't stay around long tho, too costly they said also so much torque it was hard to keep a crank in them.they would run a 100mph pulling a double bottom gasoling tanker. SUNOCO oil used them for a while in the DETROIT area. only thing that would come close to catching them was the turbines that FORD motor was working on in their semi's at the time Ah the good old days of street racing EVERYTHING!
