I have some suggestions for making best the game:
1. The "V" engines can use only a 1 turbo.
2. The aluminum engines is in use since 1950, not 1970/1969.
3. The mechanical injection is this:

4. Use one intercooler or two for twinturbos or single turbos.
5. Can select dry sump (the gravity center is lower than a wet sump and is used in most supercars and is more expensive that wet sump) or wet sump (is used in cars that the gravity center don't need more lower and is more cheap).
6. Can move you the ubication of parts of the engine.
7. The engine radiator and (optional in your engine design) an oil radiator.
8. Select the angle of cylinders.
Is only a constructive criticism: with these points, the engine designer will be better.
P.S: I have a 3d engines and I have experience in real engines.
Bye.

1. Single turbos will be available eventually for V engines.
2. That has to do with the research system in game, you'll be able to unlock them earlier, but you'll have to invest research effort, just like the real companies did.
3. I don't see how moving the pump to a different place in the engine bay would make any actual gameplay difference to how the engine was built. We've replicated one paticular style of injection pump.
4. Maybe eventually, depends how intercooler placement in the car designer ends up working.
6. I don't understand what lubrication parts you're talking about?
7. That happens in the car designer, as the radiator size could be different depending on what car you're putting the engine in.
8. That's almost impossible to do from an art standpoint, as its difficult enough as it is getting all the different components to fit correctly on all the engine types.

You can do it by creating fixes part and moving others, scale system and rotating point system, etc...
I mean, the cylinder, conrod and the bank could move around the crankshaft, etc.

Anyway, this is a graphic enhancement, and should be done at the end of the game development.
