Build your own engine!

Have you ever wanted to build a detailed engine for your car, plane, or boat but didn’t have all day? Well with Hoptro build your own engine, you can make any type of engine in minutes!

Hoptro build your own engine has over 400 combinations!
Including I4 V8 I6 and V12!

The dual over head camshaft or DOHC is a great option to squeeze more hp out of your vehicle. Most road cars have this setup including the Ford Mustang 5.0, The Mazda CX-5 and much more.

Overhead valve option or OHV is a great way to build lots of torque or “engine strength” as I like to call it. OHV options are included in these cars: 1972 Chevy Chevelle SS,RS 2003 Dodge Ram 3500 turbo diesel.
The OHV option is very common in classic cars and is a good option for utility vehicles and other high-load applications.
Valve covers make the engine look cool or give a rugged utility feel. All cars nowadays have valve covers. Only VERY old stationary engines don’t. If you decide to make one I’ll make you some rocker arms and other things you will need.

Turbos add engine Hp and torque and are rare not to find them in utility-diesel vehicles. There are intercoolers and twin-turbos.

Twin turbos are interchangeable between the V8s and the V12s other engines will require minimal tubing.

If you don’t know how to tube a turbo, watch this video.
(Not a rickroll I promise.)

Have a great day and happy building!

    @Sm10684 I probably won't. I don't really care what the engine looks like in simpleplanes. Now if that v12 made it's iconic sound, then sign me up.
