Mini v8 gas engines
I know this is off the subject sorta, but anyway. Can someone tell me where I can find the mini v8 engines that actually run. I have looked everywhere with no luck. Any help would be very helpful. Thankyou

There was a guy at the Toledo show that had some exquisite small pieces of machinery but unfortunately I did not get his name. One even had a fully functioning roots blower. Prices were not in the public view for obvious reasons. Perhaps someone else was there that managed to obtain contact info.

Your absolutly right.I was at the scale master qualifier,gunsmoke in mesa a couple years ago and there was a guy there that had 3 engines on display,running.One of them was a 9cylinder bently i believe from WWI era.It was an actual rotary where the crankshaft was stationary and the cylinders and prop spun around it.Talk about a scale sound.

Yeh I talked with Gary Conley at the Toledo show. His engine is top quality.
He said they sell for about 5k and has 50 on order then.
Here is his web sit www.conleyprecision.com. He has vid of it running and
test drive in a cobra, I think.

I have a Conley 120 four stroke with overhead cam. It is a jewel and has never been run. He only made them for a couple of years. The V-8 is beautiful and I have seen it run in a 1/4 scale duce coupe...talk about torque.

He also sells spare parts and is currently working to rebuild/redesign his 427 as he lost the molds due to a fire at the foundry. Hope this helps ya ... D.C
