Hi all, hopefully some of you will be interested in my latest creation, a small V10 petrol engine.
It's fuel injected, controlled by Megasquirt. The ignition is full sequential, with 10 Toyota coil on plug coils, hidden under the bench.
Oil pump is 3 stage, with one pressure pump and 2 scavenge pumps. There is a hydraulic triple plate clutch, which I'll need later.
It sounds loads better than the v8 I had on here a few years ago.

Reading the terms and conditions I take it I'm not allowed to post a link to youtube to show it running?

Anyway, I'm just making a mini dyno, to try it out under load.

Yes, that is very similar to mine.
It's approx 1/3 scale, 125cc.

Could you please upload some photos with other things in too - a beer or coke can for instance. It would be nice to see the scale.

To echo the above posters - fantastic creation and lovely attention to detail.

Shame about the exhaust tho. And it would have been better if it was a V8.

As long as your clip isn't monetised you should be OK.

Thanks all. This one took about 2500 hours. Not sure what I'll do with it. Maybe make a 1/3 scale buggy type thing to put it in. Although I've had a good offer for it, so I may yet sell it.

My YouTube site is monetised. Not trying to hoodwink anyone, it's fine if the thread is deleted.
