You're just jealous you could never create such a piece

If I did it would be correctly done. Why go through all the trouble and not do it right?

That's pretty good - but someone has definitely done a better job than that.

I don't recall where it was, it was some big name (website or magazine?) sponsored contest, but the PC was awesome...

I've seen a better one done, actually, in passing (on the internet). nevertheless, it looks nice.

V motors aren't always 90 degree motors

There would be no reason to have a non 90 degree V8 unless you want to throw away one of the advantages of a V8, balance.

There's such a thing as 60 Degree V8s. 3rd Gen Taurus SHOs have a 3.4 60 degree V8
