Default RE: Capiche 140

Hey Dave, I ran up that little V8 tonight![8D]I videod it but have now gotta work out how to transfer onto here.I will keep you posted.Just to fill you others in, a mate of mine bought this 1/12 scale Cirrus V8 four stroke 4cc (yes thats 4cc!) glow engine up at the nats and it was being passed about at the bar in the evening!Amazing that I didn't drop it really coz I was quite pissedIts a really amazing bit of work with all exposed rockers & four needle assemblies.Only about 3 inches long an all.It was a sod to get going at first( just working out how to do 8 feeds to miniature glowplugs took a bit of effort)but now its dialled in it starts easily.Its really quiet and so smooth but probably hasn't got the power of a typical 15 motor, but hey, its got class![sm=thumbup.gif]
