One of our readers just sent in two videos of the amazing functional paper V8 engine in action -- previously featured on TechEBlog. Just to recap, it features many moving parts which include "a compound crankshaft, a rapid cooling fan, 8 rods, 8 pistons and a complex compound gearbox etc.". The engine is powered by 2x1.5V D Batteries and weighs 2.98kg. From start to finish this model took one year to design and construct. Videos after the jump.

Now that is one masterful piece of machinery. I could only imagine how long it took the creator to build

Umm Primo, maybe reading the article would answer your questions. "From start to finish this model took one year to design and construct."

You don't have to imagine how long it took to build... "From start to finish this model took one year to design and construct."

That is AWESOME! I don't think we'll see anything like this in a car, but it's still very cool!

impressive, but i'm disappointed to tell the truth. the link i followed to this site called the engine "fully-functional". i only linked to this site to figure out htf they managed to make a paper engine strong enough to withstand gasoline detonation, not to see a model.
