I thought someone would bring that up.

If I really wanted to be picky, I'd point out that there was no (stated) restriction on how wide the thing was--so mount it in a transverse arrangement.

Also, if you slightly tilted a standard v-twin or a very compact 4 , you should be able to make it fit within 2'. Problem solved.

And if that's too big, use an 85 HP competition go-kart engine. (Uses 100 octane racing fuel, no less, so it's a little safer....)
