the infamous Bankrupter of Diamond Aircraft? the archetypical Debacle of Engineering? The engine so shitty that avweb guy used it as a case study of an engine with a long, protracted development cycle and numerous issues that only lasted as long as it did because of a series of unlikely coincidences?
I think I'll go with a Hitler engine, thanks. It isn't reputed to be very reliable, but at least I can build it from a kit and I'll know how to do maintenance myself.
