LA County ocean lifeguards find themselves in Ford Escape Hybrids
Is there anything that a set of LEGO bricks can't create? In the last few months, we've seen a Camaro and a Mustang
both built with nothing that wasn't manufactured by the LEGO
corporation, and each of those creations featured a V8 engine and
working transmission. While the entire process must be insanely
difficult and time-consuming, it's the engine that truly separates
these from mere toys. If an engine is really nothing more than an air
pump, as some like to say, then here is a working V8 engine
made entirely from LEGO parts. Following the build, it's easy to see
how many transformations that this engine has gone through before the
current pushrod version, which operates pretty well at an indicated
1,780 revolutions per minute. This is a fitting engine design,
considering that it's slated to get dropped into a Dodge Challenger
replica. Click past the break for a video of the engine in action. Thanks for the tip, Kyle!
