Auto Credit Based on LordofLego's Two-Cylinder Engine

I only made minor adjustments to make the engine just that little bit more correct. I highlighted all of my changes in orange so the changes are more obvious and to show that it doesn't take much to improve the design just that little bit more. Also i got rid of the end of the crankshaft (where the belts/chains connect) as I felt that it wasn't putting the vtol engines to good use (they now help keep the device on the ground).

Also, with the structure in the centre of the crankshaft, it creates a bit of a wobble when starting it up but it usually dies down after a few rotations.

Credit to LordofLego for the original design.

    @LordofLego I just found that thE engine was jumping a little to much for my liking, so I used the flywheel viol things to point down and keep the engine as grounded as it can be.

    Very good. The only thing is that you removed the flywheel. It didn't actually do anything, but in a real engine, you need a flywheel to keep it running.
