Before worrying about fitting it (which you should be able to without much issue) I would be more concerned about where you will be sourcing this V twin motor. My understanding is that the one in the video is a 1 off custom build. I know MHZ were building a V set up for sikk motors but cringe at the thought of what that may cost.

yes i noticed that was a custom build and im willing to do it myself no probs,anyway seeing it will fit , what prop and hardware shall i use? thanks

getting hardware and prop - least of your problems. Getting the motor together and running reliably would be my focus right now.

Leave prop purchase till near the end - any changes you may make in the mean time will make your prop selection redundant. For 2 zenoahs stock ungeared/unoverdriven I would think a prop like the 8015/3 propshop or similar would be a good choice (surface driven). If you overdrive then that choice would certainly change.

For hardware - Take your pick - theres tons of good options out there. If your considering doing the work to assemble the motors in a V then you may also consider building your own strut and rudder.

Those components look like they should be the style/size your looking for though just not sure what quality this supplier will deliver. They look to be copies of speedmaster components.

the other products are ok but if your running in saltwater the needle bearings in the stinger drive
will not last long so i've been told..

hmm good think you helped me remember,do i need to do any cleaning or washing after running ?thanks

stoddy

yes without a doubt you must also flush the cooling system with fresh water
to flush out the salt

This engine is called a v2 but they are 2 separate engineĀ“s and not an v2 carter like a harley does have.
