Re: How an Engine works
I might need to download an avi code to watch the video, all I could get was the running commentary.

Re: How an Engine works
Yeah, I have seen that one, it freaks me out when the pipes get red hot though! That would be one scary engine.

Re: How an Engine works
It's very clever stuff but nothing new, i have had a screensaver done the same way by Duetz that is about 6 or 7 years old.

Re: How an Engine works
I don't think you can buy the parts FJ. These guys would be machining their own parts would be my guess... :geek:
