Product Description

 

Product model:

DM118

 

V8 engine model kits, highly textured metal parts, bring you all the knowledge about the wonderful world of mechanical engineering in an immersive environment. You will build your own V8 engine

 

Features:

Wonderfully Detailed Model: Our V8 engine model kits feature genuine precision-cast and machined parts in anodized aluminum and stainless steel.  Each piece is accurate, detailed and directly correlates to assemblies found in modern, high-performance automobile engines. This is a superb introduction into engineering and mechanics.  
 

Complete Accessories: The kit contains over 500 parts.  Each finely-crafted part is labeled, and packaged in custom foam carriers to ensure they are organized, complete, and undamaged.  A clear, full-color instruction manual is included.  While the engine is complex, step-by-step instructions – along with some patience – ensure excellent results.  
 

Simulation Model: A real electric motor inside the starter motor housing drives the V8 engine through its 4-stroke process.  The crankshaft, rods and pistons can be observed through special viewing windows.  The intricate valve-trains atop the engine, as well as chains, pullies and accessories on the front, demonstrate the coordination among all the moving parts.  Even when not in motion, it is an impressive machine to see.
 

Excellent Learning Activity: This kit is not recommended for unsupervised children under the age of 14, due to its small parts.  However, it provides a great opportunity for adults to spend time with children.  The child will learn to understand and follow illustrated instructions, manipulate parts and basic tools, and to know the accomplishment of a job well-done.  It fosters an appreciation for the ingenuity in today’s technology as well as the need for it in coming generations.  
 

Gifts: The V8 engine kit is packaged in a colorful, durable metal gift box.  That ensures that the kit arrives intact.  Plus, it makes an excellent presentation when given as a gift.  It is a great idea for anyone interested in mechanical things.
 

For Ages: 14+

Exceeded by Expectations
The service from this company was outstanding. I placed my order and emailed regarding an update I wanted. I got an immediate respond and they completely satisfied by request. The product is as advertised and of very high quality. They also used the discounts that are available from their Facebook and website. Highly recommended

A really fun build!
It was a fun & challenging build. Instructions were very good. My one recommendation would be to use a light grease on many of the parts rather than a light oil.

Terrifically FUN DOHC V8 Engine Build

I so enjoyed building this engine! Just as advertised, every one of its 650+ parts is metal. Everything goes together excellently. I used this build as part of self-training for my building my 2023 LT6’s engine myself at the Corvette factory. When it was done, I flipped the switch and watched the pistons and valves go up and down, the crank and the camshafts all go around exactly at they should. Putting this model together was a treat!

High Quality Build - Good Fun

The kit shipped and arrived in a timely manner. The package is well-assembled and organized - it was very easy to find the correct parts needed throughout the build.
All the parts are precision-machined and finished - no sharp edges, etc.
Between the paper book and the posted videos, the instructions are excellent (though I did make an error and installed one sprocket backwards - in this case, it was easily remedied even after I had finished). It took 8-9 hours to complete the build and the model works very nicely. A mini/magnetic power screwdriver was helpful as there are hundreds of screws but it's not necessary and you'll want to manually hand-tighten anyway - the provided tools will do the job.
I shared my video with some family and friends and they were interested and impressed.
It's a bit pricey but IMO, good quality/value for the money.

Très bon moteur

Tout comme le 4 cylindres, j'ai pris beaucoup de plaisir faire votre V8, fabrication trs soigne et joli.
Rien de compliqu dans le montage mme sans notice fran?aise, pour ma part j'ai modifi quelques
dtails, feutrine sur les soupapes pour voir mieux l'ouverture, cot filtre bloc moteur agrandi une
ouverture pour voir rellement la bielle en mouvement.
J'ai aussi trouv bon de crer l'allumage, delco et fils de bougies, en dsignant les cylindres droits,
1-3-5-7 l'ordre d'allumage est sur votre moteur, 1-4-5-2-7-6-3-8 si je ne me trompe pas.
Voil pour mes commentaires, trs beau moteur une fois fini et, j'espre un jour le 6 cylindres
en ligne.
