I know something even better: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stelzer_engine . Sadly the most sources on this one are only available in German. General Motor once offered him money to stop developing this engine. At least he says so.

Ooooo. That's a neat one. You should post it. There's another weird one out there too, Italian I think, but I don't even know how to find it other than maybe it will cross my path on YouTube again.

Here are more, but it's not there: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Proposed_engines
