What's more, it sounds better than many big 4-cylinder engines.

@@rus1k169 right?! very impressive!

hey brother

Definitely not for no $999 though lol

@@bf2gammer ouch! that is quite pricey 😬. Still pretty cool to see

He did a video where he did so one I thought

@@RobertWilliams-mu7qx I think he means full size. Yeah, he already built a scale from scratch.

He doesnt have a cnc lathe?

@@AtMortenJ yes, he does. That's what the OP said in his comment. I don't know how you got to thinking that, that comment somehow meant he doesn't have one.

@@JesusDisciple916 he has a 5 axis mill, not a lathe

It's awesome

I think so too bro

Right! I've watched johnny build and run many engines but this one has a very satisfying sound to it. Sounds mean!

Definitely. It wasn't very long ago that an engine like this would be a custom commission from a grey-beard machinist that'd cost you new-car money. Granted the engine you'd get from that would be absolutely beautiful and run like a dream, but it's still two orders of magnitude more expensive and took a person like 3 months to make as opposed to this working micro engine that is made on an assembly line in probably about 3-6 hours. Wild that that's possible now.

@@Teth47 Our current factory production abilities allows way better than this. The limiting factor is to have customers. So it's the slow ramp-up of customers expecting more that is the limiting factor for progress. If you get only 100 customers, then the tooling/setup cost is huge per produced engine. No one wants to make "the best" engine and set the sales price the same as a high-volume competitor and just hope that maybe, maybe you will get enough customers to find the product and leave the multiple competitors same-price, less-quality high-volume products. Because more parts still means more production cost. So you need not just same but actually much higher sales volumes to shrink the tooling cost and manage to still get the same profit level.

How would a miniature dinosaur help him measure the performance? 🦖🦕

Dinasours are very vague so probably on a 1 - 5 scale with 1 being bad and 5 being good

@@stevenking8884 so is it 1 or 5?

@@jboymiller17 what am I the director of Jurassic Park?

You idiots, @JohnMiller means dyno like to measure the horsepower

When are people gonna start putting these is rc cars

Honestly, if it weren't for the high cost, I'd buy one right now. The fact that it seems to fully oil itself is, like you said, a game changer for reliability. And the fact that all the wear components seem to be replaceable is even better. As long as you can still get the parts, or can make them yourself that is. All it needs is a good transmission to go with it, and you could have yourself a hell of an RC car or truck. To be clear, I understand the high price for this compared to other engines, the build quality certainly looks to be worth it. I'm just broke as shit.

Hi there how’s your day going today?

@@lisabonesteel963 Great Thank you for asking

Just imagine a V-12! Search "man builds ferrari model car" it shows a video of a guy who built a fully functional Ferrari from scratch...

An upgrade to 5 main bearings, a bigger cam, and a multi-carb intake would be good to include.

What’s the oiling system like? What exactly does the pump send oil to with the crank and bearings themselves not having provisions for it? I can see splash oiling for the crank being enough, but it didn’t look like the head had oil ports. I hope I’m wrong, because I want one - but long term run time scares me with the oiling system not seemingly doing much.

Not sure, ill have to let you know when mine ships. Only the panhead has shipped so far. Im sure it has means for splashingor sending oil about. Wont know until i get ahold of it and assemble it.

Boxer with unequal length headers 🤔

Might as well get an engine from the junkyard and rebuild them for fun then resell them for a profit lol

@@Willppyro that would be one thing if it was my '67 V8 that I used to have. Before I had the truck that I have right now, I had a 98 Ford Ranger with a 4.0 V6. It was getting air into the coolant from somewhere. There was no oil in the water or water in the oil, but somehow compression gases were getting into the coolant system. A mechanic friend of mine came over and said he would help me take the heads off and put new head gaskets on. Holy crap! What a freaking chore that was. We ended up scrapping it because once we got in there we could see the Rings were bad and decided it was probably just needing a complete rebuild. Rebuilding a modern engine like that would definitely Not be fun for me. Way too much extra junk and no room to work. All these wires, plugs, and hoses just leave me scratching my head anymore. Give me an engine where the only wires going to it are to the ignition coil and the starter, and the only vacuum lines are going to the vacuum advance on the distributor and your vacuum brake booster. I would rebuild one of those anytime but these newer ones.. No Thank You. That's why these models are so appealing. It's just your basic engine with no frills. Plus.. I can't sit a regular engine on my desk.

@@Willppyro lol !

Or go individual carb per cyclinder. Though throttle tuning would be a nightmare.

@@sepg5084 I thought about that too and agree. Tuning 4 carbs would be near impossible.

Mind me asking what model you're intending to build?

@@nickksoares I won't be able to start such a project before I'm done with my apprenticeship and I do need the funds and time for it but it is a dream of mine to build such a thing. And with metal 3D printing rapidly being developed for the consumer market it is only a question of will and sadly cash too

@@sirmrmcjack2167 casting is also very accessible, if you want to look into that

@@Andre_Thomasson that's a great idea actually! I've seen people 3D-print casts, maybe that works well enough for this project. It would certainly help with tiny detail work like exhaust pipes, sprockets and viewports

@@sirmrmcjack2167 yes yes thats exactly what i meant!

for the fun of it just do itbs kekw

@@JohnnyQ5032 lol I smell a scam

Sounds like it's drowning ...In rocks.

This thing sounds incredible.. has a low tone unlike single cylinder nitros that sound like children screaming. You serious right now??

@@ThreeDPrintDesigns I am. This thing is straight-piped with even firing order, which means at 6k rpm it produces the exact same exhaust note as a 2 stroke single at 12k. So basically a 10ccm from a helicopter or plane at roughly half it's max rpm. Nobody, and certainly not me, made a comparison to a tiny 2.5 or 3.5cc comp. rc race car engine with a resonator pipe, screaming down the track at 45.000 rpm. If that's the only nitro engine sound you know (this 4-cyl. runs on nitro too btw. ) that's not my problem.

Are you autistic?

@@hellmonkey00 quality contribution, you just won the internets

the best carb you can get for thoses is a real gas carb, like the one on The honda GX25 by exemple, thoses carb are for glow engine, not really good in precise fuel metering.
