Check out the attachment of Mercury Racing new 9 liter crate engine, 1350HP, 91 octane pump gas.
The 4 valve/cylinder is trick.
Mercury Racing has helped and provided engineering to either GM or Dodge for the Corvette or Viper; can't remember which. For them to design and build their own state of art engine speaks volumes.
Now to modify a bike frame to make it fit! This looks like a job for BH Concepts??

Re: Mecury Racing QC4v 1350hp crate engine
Crap....that would be a nice drop-in unit. Most HP I have seen in a V8 that could go into a bike or trike.

GM,Lotus Engineering,and Mercruiser formed a consortium to build the DOHC 32V LT5 V8's used in the 1990-1995 ZR-1 Corvettes.
Here's the engine in my 1994 ZR-1 Corvette.

That is nice; I never knew they was a 32 valve engine for the Vettes.
Exactly which engine is that? I know it's not a LS1.
What is the displacement and HP?

The LT5 engine was offered from 1990 to 1995,in the C4 ZR-1. There were a total of 6,939 ZR-1's built in those six years and only 448 were built each year from 1993-95. The 90-92 LT5's were rated at 375hp and the 93-95's were bumped up to 405hp. Stock displacement was 5.7 liters or 346ci.
In 1990,a pair of ZR-1's set a 24hr endurance record for production cars by averaging over 175mph,at Fort Stockton,Tx. These engines will easily tag the 7,100 rpm rev limiter and sound awesome. Just adding the $30K ZR-1 option would almost double the price of the car.
My Arctic White/Torch Red 94 is the 3rd ZR-1 I've owned.
