Following on from the handful of interesting engineering videos on youtube, I give you: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XlqhCA9NQmA

Five or six videos in the series, last one released yesterday. Ivan Dutton hears about a two cylinder mini engine and buys it. Ends up with a cylinder head and a block, and nothing else... no crank, no cam, no starter, no nothing... can we start it?

He seems a real old school engineer similar to back in my old college days, great knowledge combined with a bit off trial and error. Definitely worth a look smile

One of a few you-tubers I've subscribed to, very interesting chap. One heck of a racing career he's had too.

Gone Audi mad!
