Default Modular V4 motor.
With Radiator, Transmission, TransferCase, Axles, and Frame.







Everything inside the motor moves appropriately, and comes apart very similarly to a real motor.

I have tons of other pictures, if you want to see something specific.

Why would you want all that crud besides the transmission if the motor you use already spins?
Looks very cool. I can't quite tell what's going on, but besides that it is very cool.

This is definitely not the first version of a motor, I have a couple pictures of previous versions, but not many.

Because it's a model. The transfer case was functional, you could select 2wd or 4wd, and the axles also worked. The rear suspension also articulated.

Very impressive. Any idea how many pieces are in it?

Just the motor itself is roughly 2200. Total I'd estimate 5-6000.

And it simulates (almost) every movement correct?

Do you hand crank it or do you use a motor?

A video would never be out of place ofc.

It runs off a motor that's where the starter would normally go.

Three vids.

Those videos are great, have you ever thought of making replicas of real engines such as a lamborghini v10 or the bugatti w16, that would be difficult! lol
