 Lotus developed the LT5 Corvette engine for GM in the 1980's. It has the "bearing panel" design of the 907 as does the Northstar engine. These engines were certainly not two 907s grafted together but the technology carried forward.

The Lotus v8 was a product of Lotus and not another companies design. It used current racing knowledge to develop a lightweight v8 that would fit in the Esprit.

There's lots of info on the web.
