Here's the Bugatti Veryon motor. It's a W16. I know, it looks like a V16, but it isn't. It's based on the VR6 VW motor - if you've ever seen the VR6 block, you'll understand the W concept.

Reminds me of an engineer I worked with, that used to go every week to the Harley-Davidson dealership, and drool over the bikes. Salesman said: Why don't you buy one? His answer: If I did the wife would divorce me! To which the salesman (a smart one) said: Well, in that case buy two, that way you will still have one after the divorce!

This gives you a different perspective of the motor. It's not as tall as it seems in the OP's picture - can't be to fit behind in that low area behind the seats of the car.

Notice how narrow the motor is. 60 degree V motor. Look at the difference between the Ferrari V12 and the Lambo V12.
