The Worlds Smallest Running V-8 Engine

[BLHTAZ]

CHECK THIS OUT -- incredible... :eek: :rotf:

[aemsee]

Very cool

[89eliminator]

awesome!

:idea: Now if I could just get one of those it would make a perfect and more powerful replacement for my V6. Just think how easy it would be to install :doh:

cool :clapping:

 

but GM :ack:

[garmj]

Maybe he can engineer a way so it won't leak oil out of the rear main. GENERAL MOTORS can't. :fs1:

That's way cool, but I think he messed up on his calculation of displacement. How could a 1/6th scale of a 327ci motor displace only 1.10ci?

 

Area of the bore is 1.13sq inches, and stroke is 0.49 inches. So I get about 0.55ci displacement for each cylinder. Did he forget to multiply by 8 or something?

The bore of a 1964 327 is 4.001" with a 3.25" stroke.

 

So 1/6 scale would be a bore of .667" and a stroke of .542"

 

.25 * .667 squared * PI = .349 square inches * .542 *8 = 1.51 cubic inches

 

but he lists the bore as being 0.600" and the stroke as 0.487", so

.25 * .6 squared * PI = .283 square inches * .487 * 8 = 1.10 cubic inches.

 

Remember, PI r squared, or 1/4 PI d squared. The bore is diameter, not radius.

Divide the bore by 2 to get the radius.

 

And yes, way cool!

Totally awesome, but I'd like to hear it with a load on the engine.

[tallon2064]

I wanna know how it would do on the trail? :hmm:

[jtdesigns]

That'd be a hell'a sweet RC car engine..
