Incredible piece of engineering.
OPERATIONAL
THERE ARE STILL SOME REAL ENGINEERS IN THE WORLD.
THIS IS AMAZING.....
Watch it all the way through, he machines, assembles and runs this little engine.....
This is not CNC technology; this guy made everything at home on his lathe and drill press. Took 1220 hours (a year and a half?) to make the 261 pieces. Note the end-loaded crankshaft into the block (like an Offy), 12 individual cylinder heads, TINY rods and pistons, dual "underhead" cams with pushrods to rockers in the heads. And, he did break-in runs using an electric drill driving the crankshaft!
Even if you're not an engineer, you'll appreciate this!
