So , re-manufacturing a front pulley is " Child's Play" in comparison. I'd thought of having a 2 cylinder Savage but , more in the terms of putting a GS-500 engine on a Savage Frame and keeping the belt drive if gearing permitted.

There is a fellow that has video's on Youtube....he takes Honda singles and makes twins out of them. (He has no intention of making production models).

He also made a huge V-Twin using Pratt and Whitney cylinders from a radial airplane engine:
