[@M4A2Master]

Here’s what I would really like to know, what is the part # for the torque driver you are using please?

[@billlewsey7961]

@Johnnyq90 hi, what make and model is the torque driver please?

[@mohamadalhennawi842]

Pls do something with the engine, like putting it on a boat or drag car

[@ferrarikingdom]

Yes agreed. A twin v8 boat cat style would be amazing

[@ronsteelable9405]

Are any of these motors ever put in anything? I always thought that due to the cost of the motors, they were given to him on loan.

[@LowtusMob]

​@@ronsteelable9405They crank some 6-8 HPs, perfect for building DIY scooters out of a bicycle frame

[@associatedblacksheepandmisfits]

Into a Riva 😊

[@shaqtus3365]

@@ronsteelable9405 No, he puts them in rc cars, he has a few build series on some of them.

[@shaunolinger964]

You have GOT to do a 30s rat-rod coupe with this thing! Big ol' Mickey Ts on the back, side pipes, chop-top, no-hood rat-rod.

[@BIGSMOKE-bl2lq]

My thoughts exactly plus make a much much heavier flywheel so it runs somoother will sound and drive around way nicer

[@danbo9959]

Definitely 2rd this bro👆👍

[@samkal02]

I wanna see him turbo something. If he could make one that would be really cool but he could buy one and put it on something that would be cool too

[@shaunolinger964]

@BIGSMOKE-bl2lq only problem with a heavy flywheel is it will lose throttle response. This being a gasoline engine, he can tune it almost infinitely for fast response, smooth run, or low-end torque. As quick as it responds to throttle right now... I can see him blowing a pair of tires of a car QUICK... slow revving will ruin that, and that's what a heavy flywheel would do.

[@187producedit]

i second this

[@DavidKutzler]

The engineering and machining on these models are phenomenal.

[@BIGSMOKE-bl2lq]

Good yes ruff af compared to high end machining and tolerances in race engines or yet again those lunatics over in formula 1

[@driverjamescopeland]

For no more than they cost, I'm thoroughly impressed.

[@Claude-t9l]

Cela coûte combien ?

[@PedroM125]

At the beginning of the test run, it sounded like a 2 stroke mopped. I was even thinking if it was due to the small piston size however after the adjustment of the timming, man, it sounded like a baby V8! Great job!!!

[@ifunny2725]

Moped*** Lol

[@aviatrix2]

I can't believe how good that idle sounds on that tiny engine. Actually, the whole range and throttle response is awesome for such a small engine. I think that idle sounds better than the other engines he's built.

[@kainestefaniak2751]

I defiantly have to say this is one of the better sounding engines I've heard and seems very responsive

[@robosock380]

Everything about this build is a thing of beauty. And oh my, what a sound.

[@A.R.C.77]

Easy easy on the camshaft bro 😂

[@radcarmodifications]

I was thinking the same by by cam bearings

[@madmodsgarage1179]

​@@radcarmodifications as you can clearly see cam bearings are build into (onto?) The cam shaft. There is no way to slam a lobe into the bearing

[@braziliansheetbox2497]

What if you connect those engines to a heavy flywheel like thing, it would make easier to idle at a lower RPM and also show better the sound of it under load

[@BBROPHOTO]

This thing sounds AWESOME at idle! At first I was like 'man that sounds like a 2 stroke dirt bike' but after the adjustment, I was like gosh darn that sounds just like a V8!

[@pappaflammyboi5799]

I'm pretty sure that was the quietest JLPCB ad I've ever seen. Someday we may see and hear this expert craftsman. Perhaps, before I die...😂

[@TerraRoot]

He did do voiceover at least on one video.

[@alexpickering7725]

13:33 We love the Noctua fan

[@danehutchins3845]

Love the flat head sound.

[@danw1955]

Wow! This is REALLY different! First time I've seen a flathead with the exhaust ports actually run through the heads. I thought I was seeing things at first, until you put those little U-tubes coming out in between the intake ports on the manifold. It actually seemed to run pretty well after you advanced the timing a bit. Pretty cool little engine, and even cooler that it uses what looks like, almost the same block as the OHV V-8!😉👍👍

[@LIFEOFSTUFFEDANIMALS]

Wow that sounds incredible

[@starpuss]

Real Piston Rings , That is a Very Cool Looking Engine!

[@Michalis_Sideratos]

Φαίνεται να είναι ό,τι καλύτερο σε ποιότητα από όλους τους κινητήρες που έχεις δείξει. Συνέχισε έτσι είσαι μοναδικός!

[@meeester1418]

If you pull the head off one bank, a regular flathead V8 can still run off the remaining 4 cylinders (poorly obviously). Wonder if the the model can do the same

[@samleen]

Same with ohv pushrod engines. They used to make industrial air compressors with ford 460s with one bank compressing and the other running.

[@mattfranklin6763]

While watching.. I saw exhaust coming from the left side.. but no smoke on the right.. even after the tune. I was thinking the right side wasn’t running

[@Anubis78250]

Wasn't it? The whole video I only ever saw exhaust from one bank. You even see discoloration on the table beneath it from one bank only. If it is firing on all 8 it's got a pretty bad imbalance in the intake.

[@joshuavincent7884]

Probably not enough inertia

[@Squilliam-Fancyson]

even got cross-grinding patterns in the cylinder liners. quite sophisticated engine model.

[@ThePontiacgto65]

Always the beautiful CiSON manufacturing

[@HonorNecris]

After you put the lifters in I was like "Please spin the cam, please spin the cam.. .. . Yeeeaaaaaah" lol

[@craigkaschan4822]

Amazing how someone went to the trouble to make these kits. Awesome

[@Sponsoredbybaz]

Having the time and patience for building. This is something I could not do well done. Mate, keep it up, love the videos.

[@f0x4nn3]

This one has for sure one of the better looking camshafts

[@billynomates920]

so many nice things on youtube. like a kid in a toy shop. save your pocket money forever and can still only afford a pack of stickers! 😄

This was awesome to watch. It took like 5 minutes to find this video from a Facebook reel that was way zoomed in. What an awesome little thing and now I want one for a bench top engine in the shop.

Holy crap! They're not cheap

[@oceanman207]

I love the dual carbs

[@jamesgarvey8402]

Such an improvement from the last V8 you built. Please do another RC. Something awesome. I know you’re capable. You’ve proven that for sure!

[@gvii]

Wow, that thing sounds absolutely awesome. Took me a minute to figure out what they were doing with that weird intake setup, but now that I get what they're doing I find it actually pretty darn clever. I'd really love to have one of those, but it's a bit pricey for something that I would probably just having sit on a shelf to stare at and run once in a while. Lol. Anyway, that was a great build video. I can't wait to see what you end up doing with it.

[@tonywharton5220]

That little engine sounds amazing ✌️

[@jasonchillman102]

you need to build 1/5 scale ac cobra with side pipes for that motor ASAP lol

[@TCStachowicz]

All these build videos are great! Been watching your channel for years! I always wonder what kind of power all these little engines make.... An engine dynamometer to compare all these awesome builds would be so cool!!!!! Dyno Shootout between tiny engines!

[@JMB676]

I’m surprised you don’t need to put petroleum jelly on the sleeve before inserting it into the block and o-ring seals. Love these tiny motors. You know Johnny, there is a fellow that builds tiny motor to scale that make real power. I believe he machines everything in house. I think he works for Hendrix at nascar. The motors are miniature stock car engines and are quite a bit bigger then these, maybe 4-5 times larger. They make real horse torques and would be awesome in one of your projects and I’m sure you could go there and build it with him. It be an awesome project.

[@raymond_rayder]

I follow Hendrick quite closely and I hadn't heard of this before. Sounds awesome!

[@vi23a]

Woah, that sounds sick, are they uploaded to youtube or somewhere I can watch those small motors running?

Subscribed !!! Thank you for the inspirational content !!! I'd love to see some short gasser type exhausts added at least. Looking forward to seeing more excellent content 👍 .

[@dustinmiller9829]

Awesome kit. It's an interesting contrivance that the exhaust path travels from the head to the block, only to go back into the head again.

[@WhoIsOlton]

this one REALLY sounds like a pitched down big V8

[@davidmcclendon583]

That would look great in a model T-Bucket!

[@HighDefBNG]

The block the hot rodding world needs! So many good upgrades to the flathead platform would love to see it in full scale

[@awolslaboratory1388]

You should supercharge it but build your own Latham axial flow supercharger for it! You are seriously a machining wizard.

[@motorv8N]

Great work - fantastic sound!

[@UnreasonablyIrrelevant-gv8xx]

I think this engine and the last engine they made have one of the best water pumps I've seen on these small engines.

[@PinkysBane]

These are such cool builds and they are therapeutic for me

[@Cletrac305]

How do the exhaust ports exit the cylinder heads? Never saw a flathead like that. Best engineered model I have ever seen. Built like a heavy duty motor, it should actually be able to do some work for awhile. Block is obviously based on an SBC.

[@SmokingMan26]

Glad your channel is around because no way in hell i could afford these engines

[@MONKMIKE]

She sounds amazing Johnny, sorry to hear about the distributor though.. 😞 But I know that the mad engineer will get it goin again my friend. 👍🏻😎👍🏻

[@ogaugeclockwork4407]

The exhaust setup is wild! Running it through the cylinder head to get to the outside of the engine!

[@shahramrahman2752]

Very very thank for your video 💐

[@keeganplayz1875]

This V8 has one of the most interesting valvetrain design choices ive seen. Its not pushrods, but it still has a similar setup. The heads really are flat....

[@MannyARibera]

So much detail

[@b14ckyy]

When the Sponsored segment is fully part of the actual video and you WANT to watch it. Well done sir.

I’d have to say despite being a side valve and a step back in tech it’s appearance is of higher quality! I’m impressed with the main caps and bearings.

I'm listening. that one sounds pretty good. I watch this stuff on an amplified full surround system not a cell phone. anyhow, I like that engine it sounds really good. nice job.

[@Atomkraft14]

When will there be a RC DIESEL ?!?!

[@makatron]

Gotta be the tiniest common rail system 😂 but I guess it'll be way simpler electrically.

[@ilikemorestuff]

Just, wow!

[@TerraRoot]

Missed a shot of the combustion chamber/head? Would jlcpcb sponser a metal 3dprinted exhaust that doesn't go through the heads, that'd look so cool like that 60's honda f1 engine, all spagetti exhaust in the vee.

[@kyle207]

I think this is the best sounding one yet

[@vhr103]

You can add a supercharger too OHV and Flathead？

[@G-regular503]

These are so rad!!!! Have they made a hemi version yet?

[@RealistNda8]

You should make different custom exhaust and test different sounds w them. That'd be pretty cool to see and experiment with.

[@SamwiseOutdoors]

Now we just need some teeny-tiny Ardun heads!

Hello, I'm Indonesian. I really like that you make very nice miniature machines

[@longtime239]

Extremely Cool🤙

[@jcspeedshop]

Do you check ring gaps before installing? Just curious how consistent they are

[@HonorNecris]

Routing the exhaust up through the heads seems like a nice compromise, instead of through the block.

[@danilolattaro]

I know you said you couldn't use the torque screwdriver on the rod bolts, but then you used it for the sump pan bolts which are like M1.4 and also threaded on aluminum. What is the lowest torque it can be adjusted to? Rad little engine!

[@OffGridOverLander]

That is absolutely gorgeous and sounds heavenly!!! I need to find a diesel version 😂

[@JONMEREDITH]

Bravo! Great video!

[@pauls5745]

I think the flathead is fussy compared to Cison's other engine models. The sweet spot in timing advance is really narrow, runs rough 2 deg. on either side, but if you expect to run the rpm up, more advance is preferable than less.

[@sonixthatsme]

Like to see it on the dyno.

[@RoboCNCnl]

absolutely amazing |!
