Cobra four cylinder

[kadora]

Hi friends
Please allow me to introduce my first four cylinder flat head engine.
Engine was machined from castings of my friend Arnaud Mucherie

See http://fabrication-moteur.over-blog.com/pages/Cobra_7_side_valves_air_cooled-8872029.html

To build engine took me 6 months .
Engine data:
capacity 32 ccm
one ring per piston
3 main crank bearings
assembled and TIG welded crankshaft
aluminium castings
glow plugs
suction and exhaust port my own design.
Sound of engine is like full throttle dragster /unfortunately my camera
is not able to record it in its full beauty/

Very nice engine and the video shows that the engine also runs perfectly. Thanks for the link to the web-site, which is one of the best I have ever seen...interesting projects, beautiful photography, and great information, and greater inspiration.

Very nice! You and your castings maker have it down. That should be kit marketed. Enjoyed the R/C car with the home made engine too!

He is creating working models from single cylinders to
jet turbines and a lot more , even castings according your requirements .
