Impressive !!! :thumbsup:
Where's the oil system? I see no oil presence on the valve rockers & cams. No ignition system either. Is it running by air pressure? All I can see is a small hose to the engine.

I checked it out since I did not see any cooling system either.......
"Anyone who appreciates the precision art of engine design ought to get a kick out of this offering from a Spanish engineer named Patelo. Starting with hunks of aluminum, bronze and stainless steel, he spent over 1200 hours designing, milling, turning and drilling what he claims is "probably" the world's smallest V12 engine. Powered by compressed air injection (0.1kg/sq cm), this little marvel boasts a total displacement of 12 cubic centimeters from its twelve 11.3 mm diameter pistons and works like a charm. Best of all, you can see it come together in the detailed video that follows."
