I don't think so. The ratcheting mechanism of a freewheel doesn't work like a clutch gear (as e.g. in the white 24t gear). So when the valve reaches its end point, the freewheel mechanism will still press on it, causing a lot of stress for the parts.

Personally, I don't believe that we will see the green part, as it's orange predecessor was basically introduced together with the old red (grey) 2 L driving rings in order to make a perpendicular half-stud offset possible (for the changeover catch) and is (in official sets) rarely (never???) used for other purposes. (I'm pretty sure, we won't have to wait long until someone will correct me... ;-) )

I see a lot of possibilities to strengthen the fake engine... Dashboard end: Maybe a connection on each side to the grey connectors attached to the blue biscuit part... Axle end: Maybe some more connection to the yellow No. 6 connectors or to the black 13L beams... Depends on the available space which is restricted in the next building steps... The official way the engine is mounted is truly not the way I'd prefer personally. However, maybe the wobbly mounting is kind of intended for the Nissan. One could speak of realistic motion of the engine when it unfolds its high performance in this sports car... just a thought... I don't like it, too. (And we all know, the real reason is half-baked engineering and saving costs...) Thank you very much for the praise. You're welcome. I like this kind of tasks.

Yes, the differential will interfere with the second flip-flop beam, so the setup shown in the image will be the right one as soon as the differentials are put back into the car. The space needed for the differential is the initial reason for the weird construction with the quarter-ellipses mounted to the steering rack.
