Lego V8 - more refined

This time not more rpms, just a more refined machine, poducing its power more smoothly. The crank is stabbilised with 2 paralel shafts, which prevent it from twisting = more power. Switches use scotch yoke principle of operation.

What does it run on? oil,gas,electricity? Please reply!

@DavidDMAN22 neither. Compressed air.

this is the smoothest running V8 Engine i've seen so far. I really want to built that exact motor, because thats simply the best construction there is yet. Do you think you cold create a plan for that one, too. I have seen the plan for the older model still with a belt but this one is so much more beautiful.

The LPEpower V8 is MUCH MUCH better and alot smoother. Go check it out. I even sell the things on LPEpower . com

hey were do you get one of these lego kits

[nicjasno]

You can get them in my store. I make them. LPEpower . com

I dare you to put your finger in there >:)

What you should do is put these engines in lego race cars and design the transmission and all that, then get a bunch of guys who've built lego engines to do the same thing, then race the cars. You could put the pump on the car and make it radio controlled so you can control the pressure to go different speeds and even add a pneumatic brake system. It would be so awesome.

horsepower?

[DJSI3434]

what is the crankshaft design crossplane 90 degrees or flatplane 180 degrees

[vivalarey619]

what are the chances of compressed gas replacing internal combustion engines?

[magnum9987]

VERY NICE. I wish REAL V8s operated this smooth....

[squirrely911]

Now put a supercharger on it..

[ilykefishiecrackers]

this is incredible!
