{"product_id":"v8-engine","title":"V8 Engine","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe UGEARS V8 Engine is a 1:6 scale wooden model that replicates the main mechanisms of a real V8. Eight pistons move in cycle, with two cylinders firing for every 90 degrees of crankshaft rotation, while 16 spring-loaded valves open and close under the rotating camshafts. Run it from a USB-C cable with the on\/off switch, or turn it by hand with the knob below the switch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKey features\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e8 cylinders with pistons moving in cycle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e16 spring-loaded valves driven by the camshafts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTiming chain linking crankcase and valve train, plus a throttle valve on the intake manifold\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eElectric motor styled as a generator, or manual drive by knob\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccessories: A\/C compressor, alternator, power steering pump and water pump\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDetails including exhaust manifolds, spark plugs, oil pan and dipstick\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScale:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1:6\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePower:\u003c\/strong\u003e electric motor via USB-C, or by hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTiming chain:\u003c\/strong\u003e 32 links, tension adjusted with two tensioners\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAssembly:\u003c\/strong\u003e in stages (cylinder block, then valve blocks), no glue or tools\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInstructions:\u003c\/strong\u003e step by step, in 11 languages\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eMore engines are in our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/build-kits-for-adults\"\u003ebuild kits for adults\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"UGEARS USA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68047295381609,"sku":"70264","price":96.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0265\/1537\/4185\/files\/Engine_V8_Wb_1500x1500_-_69_75777183-b83a-4649-807b-8a0f3d9daf50.jpg?v=1794461446","url":"https:\/\/makersthings.com\/products\/v8-engine","provider":"maker's things","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
