Cool stuff.. I'm pretty sure I would've have thrown that thing across the room trying to assemble it with my fat fingers.

I like this Chevy V-8 myself, sounds really bad. Check out the other video's. The Ford 302 just didn't run or sound very healthy. The Ferrari V-12 engine was in a class by itself, totally awesome

probably nitro-methane similar used in gas powered RC models. oil based, fired by a glow plug to start ignition, then heat takes over

I have a couple weed wacker motors that I am going to put in a handmade PT109 Torpedo Boat with remote control that the Grandson and I are going to build together.
Obviously I plan on having an operational air launched torpedo system and am trying to keep telling myself that I do not HAVE to make the Torpedos with functional, albeit miniature war heads
Still it would be fun to go to the park where the guys are sailing their remote control boats and go cruising up at High speed and sink one Nah.....

Probably wrong but it looks like the V-12 just runs on positive air pressure? No exhaust sound, fuel source, ignition. Still pretty amazing piece of workmanship

X3 on that but there must be some sort of lube involved.
