Cripes! you would need a 2.1 to drive the fan needed to cool that 18 cylinder, 
twin row monster! 

As an aside, those�engines are very expensive to get parts for. They have been 
out of production for decades. I cannot imagine that their worth as scrap is 
more than thier worth as parts for any of the historical Warbird restoration 
groups, or even a private owner...
