1.2L v8 - a little rev

[Sliphantom]

Automation players be like
"this engine makes sense in my minivan"

The guy at 0:40 looks like he just precisely determined the current RPM, oil temperature, crank deflection, the grade of aluminium and the social security number of the guy who packed the cylinder head bolts just by touching the engine.

It's 2 600cc 4 cylinder motorcycle engines mated together.

I loved how the little v8 calmed down after the old bloke put his hand on it. It's like "Calm down little fella"

Been wanting to do this for years. Glad to see it came to fruition. Now for a version built from twin Honda CBR250RR engines.

this little monster would be sick in a stripped out Miata track car. Insane power to weight but probably even more important is the convertible so you'd be able to hear it screaming better lolol

[peterpurpose]

The small capacity V8 of my dreams.... tis music to my ears.

[polloloci]

Sounds crazy. Reminds me of Porsche’s first formula 1 engine - it was a 1.5L flat 8.

Two older gentlemen spending their time wisely 👏🏼👏🏼 Sick build

First off, that sounds amazing. Second that's made from 2x 600cc bike engines which means the power doesn't happen before 6000rpm and only really gets going at 10, 000rpm, screaming to ~13, 000 before changing gear. Secondly, it means that puts out somewhere around 200bhp, which would make it stunningly well suited to a little, lightweight car, like the MX-5.
I need it. 🤤🤩

[THESLlCK]

officially cooler than every engine on the market right now, aside from the fury

[Hopeless_and_Forlorn]

Next step: Do an Allen Millyard and stuff it in a motorcycle frame. From motorcycles it came, and to motorcycles it should return.

[GuillermoSchimmel]

That old dude going barehand protection-less to touch it made my day. It's just a V8 without supresors on a closed room.

[brandonallgrim]

That old mans face after he feels the engine is priceless man is proud.

[gdlkinbi]

Cute, the 1957 Ferrari 125 Testarossa used a 1.5l V12 engine and this one sounds SO MUCH like it at this RPM👍
Looks like grandpa is having one fun retirement....

[DrippinSix]

Now that's a monster ass go kart engine if I've ever seen one. All it needs is the frame. Amazing 👏

[RedShirtGuy]

the old man looks like he can tell you all all the real-time statistics from that engine just by the feel

[chipcity]

How could 15 people give this a thumbs down? The mind boggles.

[strestoration]

Imagine all the other crazy stuff being built in garages across the country. Love it!!

I know it’s been 10 years now, but YouTube just recommended this video to me. Can you give us an update on this awesome engine?
