The issue I see with them facing each other is the rotation will be opposite , is there a way to Change that on these engines ? To get past this you could always do a figure 8 on the belting on one flank.
Edit: I did just envision a line shaft elevated directly over the axles of the engines , with extra pulleys to run accessories , I think Wilesco has some taller ones that may do nicely.
