VILLIERS V6
Villiers have been working on this variant of the V10 for the last 12 months. We now have the block machined and the crank installed. The heads and intake manifolds cast awaiting machining. All the internal components are ready so it shouldn’t be too long before we have a running engine ready for testing.
The V6 shares the same design and architecture as the V10. Its 22,5 degree V design make for a very compact V6, so much so sister company Levis Motorcycles are using it to power their upcoming Café Racer Motorcycle and other variants in their planned range.
We also plan to twin turbocharge the engine for use in sports car applications. We will release further information on this at a later date.
