That video is just a 3 cylinder engine, not a dual crank flat 6 cylinder engine as the headline suggests. Maybe if you couple the 2 engines in line.......... :D

have to get back with my friend over it he was trying to bring it up on his cell phone a couple days ago but it wouldnt.
He was talking like it was a flat six. I did work on a pancake 8 cyl for ford long ago but it didnt go anywhere for a couple reasons i pointed out.

Is it designed so the pistons form the combustion chamber as they come together?

Two crankshafts (pic from above article), sounds like the one described by the O/P.
The OP engine produces 270 hp and 480 lb-ft (651 N·m).
