Hi Andrew,

I thought that I would never see another "out of the box" thinker on this site! You must be ADD also :).

Have you calculated the rotational speeds that you will need for the final speed? You will need to establish a top motor rpm to calculate rotation forces to determine whether the B block will stand the stress. Your 180 degree crank is not a new idea, there were several drag cars build in the 1960s that ran 180 degree cranks in the hemi motors. they sure sounded funny at idle!

Have your boiler built by a certified shop for whatever pressure you need and don't worry about it blowing up. They make a myriad of pressure safeties to overcome that obstacle.

Regards and happy dreaming,
