Very impressive, but check out this video of a Ferrari 312PB model in which everything works, including the V-12 engine.

Didn't notice any bearings, seals, piston rings or gaskets.
What's up with that?

I don't think that engine really "runs". It looks to me that he's supplying compressed air through that tube, and that's what's making it operate. I also didn't notice an ignition system. Maybe it's diesel... :smile:
 
It's a very nice piece of work! Imagine making the cams and then the valve timing. Quite impressive, regardless of how he's powering it.
