There is no way that V8 is really running. It would be impossible for a person to make all the internal parts on it. I don't believe any of those mini engines run. Do you ever see the pistons or anything in those vids? No.

It is definitely running, I hang out on a forum called 'homemade model engine machinist' quite a bit, people over there are doing amazing things.
