Here is another exceptional engine.
With which manufacturer was it developed? How many cylinders and how were they arranged? What was the special design feature? When did development begin?
Edit: In this photo, the engine is partially disassembled.

Sorry, please unlock. I would like to leave the puzzle-solution to other players. I am focused on much more important things in life. Have hardly any interest or time for AutoPuzzles activities. Sorry, once more  ;)
