Mercury v8 marine engine in action

[@tylerstains]

Would love to see what the oiling system looks like

[@nightmareinaction629]

Thats what i was interested in

[@Everybodysucks919]

I mean its probably just a dry sump system

[@Vade1313]

Was thinking the same! How does the top cylinders stay oiled and the bottom ones not break something due to being submerged in oil behind the piston?

[@TheSaltyBalls]

Mercury Verado engines capable of 300-400 hp stock depending on variant You think that’s nifty they added one with 600 hp that the engine can’t swivel, only lower unit does. Super cool 😎 Loaded down they sound a lot more quiet. There’s a mode where it passes more exhaust gas underwater to go “stealth” vs “sport” lets some out from some kind of bypass Science rules

to be honest those engines dont have to be running at their highest rpm to be effective, i think the propelly would spin too fast most of the time if it were to be true 1:1 ratio

Os motores de alta rotação têm a configuração super quadrada ou seja, o curso é bem menor que o diâmetro do pistão. Dessa forma a velocidade dos pistões durante o giro dos motores é mais amena.

Wow, never seen a vertical v8 so compact. I see the commets about oiling which is understandable and the first thing I wondered about, I used to aircraft engines where some have oil systems for any orientation so not that unusual, but they work best the right way up whereas this will obviously always be on its end. Lets hope its a really great crankshaft seal otherwise the water behind you will have awesome rainbow patterns in it.

[@epicpeppy2977]

This reminds me of when I was a kid and my family was testing the aircraft engines we would build. My dad and grandfather would be outside the shop with system similar setup to this except it was much larger trailer. I can still remember the feeling of the wind whipping around me and rumble from engine.

That sounds awesome, I never thought families would build aircraft engines. Always seemed too complicated. If you don’t mind me asking, how that came to be?
