Description
This compact V8 piston engine houses over 400 HP and 15,000 NM torque in a compact (7x5x4) area. It uses direct sensor connections, a piston-bearing crankshaft, and compacted double pistons; 2 pistons per cylinder, 16 total.

Instruction:
-AFTER welding to ground/creation, paint yellow blocks Dark Grey.

Connections: (remove switches)
-Throttle control connects to BOTH logic gates.
-Reverse control connects to middle logic gate only.


Dyno data: (peak values)

Stock: (150)
-420 HP @230 rpm
-15,000 NM @10 rpm
-300 rpm MAX / 5 rpm STALL

Torque: (120)
-360 HP @190 rpm
-17,000 NM @10 rpm
-260 rpm MAX / 0 rpm STALL

MAX - maximum operating rpm.
STALL - rpm when engine stops/reverses.
(n) - rotation degrees in controller(s).



Please feel free to use this in any workshop creation if needed. However, please give credit.

Very nice, I like that it doesn't use logic gates per piston, and still has switch-based forward and reverse.
@Miobrot yes, 35hp/piston is possible with V8, however, that requires piston stretch, which would increase the block width by 2 blocks and block height by 1, which is not viable as this engine is all about power density.

Very nice!!! I am not planning on using this, but I did engine swap this with a trammeled unicycle and it did burn-outs like there wasnt any load haha. No offense to your build, but its possible to get 30+ hp per piston with the v8 configuration, otherwise very nice engine.

Just a side thought, If anyone wants to use this engine for the size, but find the game too laggy, glitchy, or it has too much power, 1 piston from each cylinder can be deleted, converting it into a normal 8 piston engine. Power and torque will be cut in half as a result.

In my testing, this thing absolutely shreds collision based gears/differentials because of the power. lol
