Hand made Mini-V-12 engine
« on: December 01, 2011, 09:25:25 PM »
If you have always wanted to build a working V-12 internal combustion engine you can hold in the palm of your hand — and who hasn't? — this instructional video will show you how. And if you want to see the tiny motor actually run, place your cursor on the horizontal scroll bar at the bottom of the video screen and slide it to the 8:30 mark...I rather enjoyed the entire build!

How many HP we talkin' there? Thinking he needs to bore out the cat, remap the computer, & drop in some adjustable lifters. Could be the next CVO platform.

you have to salute a true craftsman.  I noticed no digital tools were used, this guy was real old-school.

Pretty cool but it's not running from combustion, but more as a forced air pump as a result of compressed air through the hose. Still, that's some serious craftsmanship there! Just watching him cut that crank was mind numbing. I wonder how long that took to build?
