May I ask a question please? What was the most number of cylinders ever proposed in a CMP engine? It is posible that this was actually achieved.
12 - there was a proposal to fit the Lincoln sidevalve V12 to (I think) the F60H.

As to the windscreens, it was an Aussie innovation to make them open to 90 degrees.
