i'm sorry i dont see the point, from an engineering prospective its amazing, but from a practicability point of veiw, a subi donk will deliver heaps
of power without all the fuss, if its air cooled you are after those chaps at porsche seem to have it nailed, personally i'd look at a corvaire flat
6 aircooled, but then again i'm quite happy with what vw fitted, i can pick up just as many speeding tickets with a 1.6 dak dak
