    Hi everyone,

    I am trying to find out which models might have used this particular crankshaft configuration. I believe the 4CLT did but I am unsure regarding any others.

    one more thing! Also, Maserati patented this configuration in 1949 but for some reason I think Bugatti used a similar config but I cannot quite place which engine I am thinking of. Can anyone confirm?

    All I can add to this thread is that the Honda S600 (from the 60's) also a had roller bearing crankshaft. I believe some Porsche's had some too ... as Jay Leno mentioned it in the S600 video ;)

    I know of one (for a 4CLT I believe) sitting in a box.
