Have out 2 Engines and Tezzeret and proliferate 4 times a turn allowing you to use his final effect once every turn. I know that the popular opinion is that Contagion Engine is too slow but I know from personal experience that it works great in a control deck because with your removal and countermagic you can last long enough to play it.

the engine double proliferates at 4 mana per engine I would destroy your engine or walker long before that happened

would be brutal if you pulled this of though

Contagion Engine is fairly slow, and i can imagine getting one out in a control deck but two?? That seems nearly impossible, and even if you got both out, it costs 8 mana per turn to activate them both. If you really manage to get this out consistently, I'd seriously question the decks you play against.

I usually only get out one Engine and Tezzeret but I also get out Unwinding Clock to untap the Engine during my opponent's turn, I usually have the mana to tap it twice because I run all my decks 24 lands.

24 lands is pretty normal for 60 card standard decks. Without some of the insane artifact accel (blinkmoth urn), if you are getting out one-third of your lands, then either you somehow are hitting land drops for your first eight turns (which if you do, then I am quite jealous of your luck), or you're managing to get to the 12th or so turn. Aggro decks should have you killed long ago, Control/Removal decks should have been able to eradicate any of your threats like Tezzeret and Engines, and Life Gain decks would have such a ridiculously high life it wouldn't matter.

Either way, this seems like something that's improbable and inconsistent. In my opinion, Planeswalkers' Ultimates should only be a part of combos in truly remarkable circumstances. Planeswalker + Proliferate is more of a given than a combo.
