Was looking at Buddy Bar castings site's picture gallery and found this pic of what truly seems to be 3-cylinder Vtwin+1 block.
Anyone know what it's for?

Maybe found it.
Maybe Buddy Bar piece is for the HD-Jim Feuling W project ... which seems to have been a reimagining of the motor the late Bobby Labrie created ca 1982 at Concord NH. Google's the cat's meow.

Does look like the Feuling block.
No offset between cylinders.
Rods connected like a radial engine.

Maybe they were made in multiple shops back then.midnightbluS10 wrote: ↑Thu Feb 18, 2021 12:54 pm Oddly enough, they have the same pic at
www.alloyproducts.com and
www.procastengineering
Buddy Bar didn't have much machining capability back then.
