Some of you may have heard of the little Savoia S42A engine, a little 600cc four-stroke boxer.
Apparently the company had stopped development of that engine, but have started a new 800cc V-twin conversion (four valves, per cylinder, EFI, etc).
No word on if/when it will go into production, but at $7500, it's not a bad deal, though probably expensive for the budget builders (though possibly much lighter than a VW?
I've attached the info brochure. Info below:
