[V3]Compact - V8 Piston Engine | High Power

Description
This V8 engine is based off of my flat 8 engine, packed into a compact V8 engine form to fit into compact vehicles. This engine is a lot more powerful, with more torque good for heavy weight or large wheels.

This version is designed to have 8 piston firing instead of 4. The better timing reduces the top end rpm from 290 to ~275 rpm, however, the engine is lot more reliable and has greater torque.

This engine can be shortened from 9 blocks to 8 blocks in length by removing the 3 pipe pieces on the front for shorter engine bay tolerances. Make sure however, to connect the timing system bearing to the vehicle.

>This engine fits in a 9x5x4 area, or 8x5x4 if shortened.
>This version of the engine [CAN NOT] be built by hand in creative or survival as it uses glitched blueprint editing methods. However, This can be done using a glitched piston on a bolt as seen in Version 1.5

Slower, yes, weaker, no. It was designed for low speed high torque application, ie with 7u wheels or heavy vehicles. The timing ensures all pistons fire at the same interval each, and in the normal way where one piston is firing on time and the opposite bank is 90 degrees early. But besides that, I did this as a personal project (like all things I do) because I thought of the idea and went with it because it was something different that I have never really seen anyone else do, and honestly could care less if it is actually better or not.

Side note though, the new pistons are great, I just have not put them on anything because I made these before the creative implementation of survival parts :)

old Pistons are a lot weaker than the new ones

the different timing is just making your engine weaker and slower it shouldn't do anything other than that

why is it rly slow
