Love the way he knife edged the crank and polished it. Turning the lobes on the cams....awesome. Great find Patrick, thanks for posting.

I wonder what he used for the ignition system?
Or is the compression so high it runs like a diesel??

Yeah, I'm not even sure how that thing is running. Maybe just air powered for the demonstration. There seems to be nothing coming out of the exhaust?

I've seen this before. And while very impressive machine work... It's not a running V-12. It's a V-12 powered by compressed air. There is no combustion taking place.
