The V8 engine is probably the most popular engine configuration around, mostly because it has been around for decades.
However, if you've been wanting to build your own remote-controlled car powered by a V8, your choices for a model V8 engine are thin and most of them are pricey.
Toyan, a company known for making scale model engines, has released a V8 engine that's relatively affordable. Currently selling for a promo price of $1,799.99 at Stirlingkit, the Toyan FS-V800 can be bought as either a DIY kit or a pre-assembled version on a 1/10 scale. The video atop this page gives you a look at the assembly of its DIY kit.

QUIET!!! They are watching us, after all. The last thing we need is them getting more of their ‘brilliant’ ideas.

Reactivate the Combined Miniature Defense Forces.
Shrink for an hour, see if it makes any difference.

That sounds like a great engine to power a backup generator for an electric car!

A relatively quiet drone engine?
For a really long range small drone?
None of those 2-cylinder jobs.
