Neutral Observer, has answered the question to my satisfaction. Neutral Observer 4 weeks ago Each cylinder of that Packard V12 had four valves: 2 intake, 2 exhaust. Each of the exhaust valves had an individual exhaust pipe. 12 cylinders X 2 exhaust pipes/cylinder = 24 pipes, or 12 pipes on each side.
I am confused, there are comments that it is a Packard V12, if that's the case can someone explain to me why there are twelve exhausts on both sides of the engine, 12 exhaust ports each side equals 24 cylinders, so it's a Packard 42 litre V24.

@@simonlane1277 No. This engine was developed by Packard alone before war time and though it was intended for aircraft, it handily fit the bill for use in PT boats and actually saved Packard from losing a gamble with this engine otherwise. This engine is ~2500 cu. in. displacement, much larger than the Packard Merlin of WW2..
What an inspiring collection of beauties!
Cars were once designed by artists, now the bean-counters are in charge...

I luv the rich mixture display.
A future electric car would NEVER be able to generate such happiness, love, emotion, as this car.
Electric Cars are certainly .......'EMOTIONLESS ' !
amen brother
He knows when he shows up he shut down the show.🤩
#14***** YES YES YES! I would love to drive this beast across Kansas on I-70 at speed. That would be a life time achievement. AWESOME it is.
Running it that rich can't be good for the plugs!
Good luck getting that thing to pass emissions.
One of the best beasts out there, with the s76 as well🥰
Holy crap, that's one of the coolest cars I've ever seen!

That makes sense, I just couldn't find any details of that engine, thanks, I wish I had one like it.@@neutralobserver3423

Perfect! The engine is a V12 - 24V, (PT boat marine engine). en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Packard-Bentley
@@mariobelfort4835 It's 42 Liter, V-12 - 24 V (valve)
Packard made this one race car.
Nice vid I was there to I think my favourite car was the beast of turin (fait)
Cameraman almost got roasted, literally
Was this a Packard v-12 racing engine built for racing, or the production car engine for put into a race car?
It's basically a plane engine with a few tweaks. Used in the American mustang fighter of ww2.
@@drd6416 It's sourced from an American World War II-era marine military PT boat, not from an airplane.
Wasn't this a Rolls-Royce (Merlin or Meteor) built under licence?

TOPSHOW EVERYTHINGS THIS CARS
The difference between Men and Boys ?
The cost of their toys.
It needs a turbo charger.
@charles Wesley, nah fooking great Blower!!!
It probably has a supercharger on it. The Rolls Royce Packards of ww2 in the Mustang P51s did.
