Here is my V8 with 5 bearings. It has standard small block chev firing order, and uses the FOS system to simulate spark plugs/injectors. The only downside is that using the Technic mounts means it doesn’t have the correct 90 degree angle between cylinder heads.

i’ve seen the FOS system used before that way ;)

The mpeg is not working the last time I looked. I can email it to anyone interested.

Back to the radial engine, the design for the crankshaft is very nicely done. Any plans to put it in a model?
