I tried, it takes about 1 to 2 minutes to start the simulator each time I change something so that was the bulk of the time it took me to make this since early yesterday about 30 hours ago, I had a brainwave this morning, to use fractions and whatnot to get around typing in long chains of decimals, and that nearly messed it all up until I went from degrees to radians for cylinder bank angles.
Anyways, it makes like 1900 horsepower and over 6000 pounds of torque, I was aiming for 1800 horsepower since the Wasp Major is basically two Twin Wasp E engines back to back, and those are basically doubled-up R-1340 Wasp engines, so 450 horsepower N/A times 4 is 1800 horsepower, so if this were put through DDev's turbo mod at around 13 psi of boost it would make its rated 3400 horsepower under the effects of its single-stage centrifugal supercharger. It revs to a massive 2800 rpm and because its 28 cylinders the sim frequency is down at 2200 Hz and I still can't hear its wonderful noise at full speed, I have to slow it down to 10% slowmo to hear it chuffing along without gauges pinging to inf and 0 and back. Frankly, its not really the sim, my pc may be a Yukon Gold among its kind but that's still a potato XD
