Topic: Worlds smallest v8

Hi to all, my name is Andrew, only been drawing n printing for about a year n half now.I have a standard 1.0 davinci and it does fine for me, As i'm more then happy to lathe and or mill my prints to finish off. This is my miniture v8, It"s capacity is 9.88cc which will be the worlds smallest internal combustion v8 engine if i can get it running? Very soon i hope,,So i bought a printer to print my inlet manifold with abs, If it does run? won't be for long, so the manifold shouldn't get to hot?

Wow. I'm not worthy. If you have trouble with the ABS, there is a high temp filament that might help. ColorFabb is a name brand.
