Architecture configuration In-line engine The cylinders are arranged consecutively in a single plane V-engine The cylinders are arranged in two planes in a V configuration Radial engine The cylinders are arranged radially in one or more planes Opposed-cylinder (boxer) engine The cylinders are horizontally opposed
A model 5 cylinder radial engine built by Ron Lane. 1850hp Wright R-2600-29 Cyclone 14-cylinder radial. Note that this is effectively two 7 cylinder radials back to back with the rear bank of cylinders being rotated half the cylinder to cylinder spacing.
