I came across this tonight on the interwebs, and got really interested all of a sudden...

Does anyone know of places in Australia that sell complete kits like this? So that it'd be an assembly job as opposed to a machining and assembly job like the link.. And a rough cost? I think they're pretty cool

[NickVR]

That is insane. Would love to find something like this, maybe a V8 version if possible.

[WogBoyz]

some serious detail gone into that

That is absolutely insane. That guy seriously has too much time on his hands though lol

[Kernal]

There are v8 versions (youtube). Ive been looking for one for ages.

[db_notso]

i think there custom machined and made at great expense
those drawings he had the crank etc on were proffesionally done to scale aswell $$$$$$
but still cool as!~

[Jezza]

there not cheap but if you want something similar then look up lego engines (youtube to see them) as they work out to be a bit cheaper

the testors model company did/does make a visible 426 hemi v8, assembly and painting required: TES452 Testors Visible Hemi V-8 Engine BEST PRICE ON THE INTERNET!

revell is another company that makes one, 1/4 scale visible v8 here: Revell 1/4 Visible V-8 Engine

those links are all really cool, i'm definitely keen on buying one soon.

mind you, it'd be cheaper to buy a dud car from a wrecker and get that engine running again on a benchtop lol

Something like this would be really good for teaching people how a V-Configuration engine works.

I just can't believe I've never come across this before.
