Overview

Build Your Own V8 Combustion Engine Kit

Build a realistic working model of a combustion engine. With illuminating spark plugs and ignition sound chip built into the base plate, to show the engine firing.

This is a fully functioning motorized model. It has all the tools you will require to assemble this model. Kit comes complete with 250 engine parts and its own Haynes manual.

The Haynes V8 engine is a greatly simplified version of a real car engine. The Irish Times called it 'the ultimate gift for the budding petrolhead' but in reality it's for everybody with an interest in cars or engines.

Customer reviews.

Bought this for my 16 year old son and he loved it, great detail on the engine. He had great fun building it and now he is all chat about cam shafts and drive trains. The model is mostly plastic that needs to be screwed together, the wiring is easy to understand and everything fits well. the engine noise is a bit of a cheesy electronic engine noise but it looks great when its running. Overall a great model and a really good price

i ordered this a couple weeks before christmas and it came all the way across the Atlantic via DHL faster than is takes the US postal service to deliver to me from Chicago! very fun project with my son. who doesnt regret getting an earlier start on learning about engines? great product!

This is a detailed plastic model with easy to follow instructions if you read English. The quality is good and you learn a lot about engines. Two things bothered me though. One is the engine sound that is played when you push the button. It is pathetic. It is a joke and it would have been better without it. The other is that the model is a bit small to get a really good view when put together and running. This is solved by the app though. And a bigger model has other issues. If you are interested in engines and like to build things, this is perfect. Lots of fun for the money.
