yes your the twat. think about it. ford's V6 is a wide angle V arrangement. you stick them together sideways your going to have a very wide engine. the reason VW have the W12 is because the VR6 base engine is a small 15 degree V. they even used one head in the VR6 engines

oh 
but its true, it is essentially one block, and therefore a new engine.
and i thought it was a W12 instead of V12 too.
so if a V12 has 12 pistons in the V shape, whats the point of a W12??? more balanced? less balanced?

No it's simply a 12 cylinder engine arranged in a different way  may have been designed with more torque in mind or so u don't have to have a 20 ft long engine don't know....
