5.5 liter 12-cylinder Camry by Garage 54: first drive

[@kenny3217]

I am impressed with how much more sophisticated the engineering and fabrication has become on this channel. A lot of the older vids (while still very entertaining) are basically just welding stuff together but things like the lada inline 6 and this really take some creative problem solving and precision machining.

[@kellypg]

You need to go back further if uou wanna see some of their really sophisticated stuff. They made a car with legs. Many people have put a 2nd motor in a car.

[@pflaffik]

This in a somewhat older video, was on the russian channel in 2019.

[@prozacgod]

I'm often surprised at how well stuff works with the lack of precision, it's amazing. That's not to say their work is bad or anything, it's just I'd expect heaps more precision to make stuff work, and .... it seems I'm way wrong!

[@offyouselfsbuddy1683]

I'm so damn glad KZbin didn't take down this channel, we Americans love Vlad, or atleast I do! It's such a breath of fresh air to see a garage fabricating outside the box without getting something off the shelf or using something common people can't afford, i also love seeing the Russian cars like the Lada, never knew they existed, just goes to show the all the barriers there are that will hopefully end some day!!! I would love to meet Vlad and his team someday soon, maybe even be able to work on one of his projects, until then be safe brothers!!!

[@martinleska4292]

I think both engines should always run. Even if you use one engine for propelling car, other engine should still run on idle because without running engine there is no oil circulating in automatic transmission because AT oil pump is powered by engine, not by wheels. Spinning automatic transmission in neutral without running engine for long distance will damage gearbox of unused engine.

There once was a company in California, I think, That you could order a special built Cadillac Eldorado from. The Eldorado was a front-wheel-drive car. When you got the car you got a 98 Eldorado Touring Coupe with a slight twist... Well, you know how the NorthStar V8 was a thing? They called their setup the "TwinStar". Yep. Two Powertrains. One front, One rear. All wheel drive, 16 cylinders. But from the outside, it looked stock. This reminded me of that.

[@isaactrockman4417]

Those were cool. Too bad they chose a car with a super unreliable engine to double up

[@Cammi_Rosalie]

@@isaactrockman4417 Yep. Shitty casting and ill-fitting head gaskets, along with sup-optimum head bolt arrangements and the differences in thermal expansion between the aluminum heads & blocks and the hardened steel bolts. All boils down to poor metallurgy and iffy assembly in the end.

Automatic transmissions generally dont like being flat towed without fluid circulating. When one engine is shut off and the transmission is in neutral....I see a transmission getting eaten up in no time.

can't pull 1 or the other trans without the engines running. the trans is still creating pressure and you need the trans pump spinning to keep the pressure in check, same reason your not suppose to flat tow an auto vehicle too fast or too long, the trans and torque converter don't like it.

[@routtookc8064]

Agreed. I was curious too, when they went on just the rear engine, they would lose power steering up front. I think it is supposed to go into neutral if the engine is not selected on their 3 way switch.
