bit more done: V6 engine (like the best engines)

engine components laid out


assembled the crank with pistons and rods


pistons installed into block



some gearing added to engine, am hoping for about 330bhp


engine fitted, didn't use a crane, just lifted in by hand


a few pics of more lego being added



two more electric motors fitted, these control the arms for scoop thing and rake thing
