I received a email about the worlds smallest V12 engine and from what I saw it was pure engineering and a pleasure to watch this engineer at work.
i think it went for nine minutes but it was worth every minute.

Here is one that runs on fuel. They make big radials as well, excellent workmanship.

And here is the most amazing effort by Barry Hares. He built a miniture Rolls Royce Merlin V12, 6000 hours work to make 7000 parts including the supercharger. Just stunning workmanship.

I am about a third of the way through builing this miniture V8, got the block done anyway :)
