- This video demonstrates the firing order of the Buick straight 8 engines, which were used from 1931 to 1953.
Firing order shown here is 1 6 2 5 8 3 7 4.
Straight 8: Revs Higher than 6000 RPMs.
Realism: "Aight, I'm boutta head out."
lol
That's the beauty of this videos. You can play with "engines" without worrying about realism
Yeah at 4K I got scared already 😂
Toyota 1UZFE V8
*Mercedes-Benz M196 R has entered the chat*
Capacity: 2,496cc
Bore / stroke: 76.0 mm / 68.8 mm
Valvetrain: DOHC / 2 valves per cylinder
Peak output: 216 kW (290 PS) / 8,500 rpm
Peak torque: 250 Nm / 6,300 rpm
Redline: 9,500 rpm
Seeing an inline 8 again in modern times would be a breathe of fresh air. Love the look of any car with a long hood line.
Hell yeah
batmobile
A poop of old cum.
Strange how it almost starts as a 6 cylinder inline engine, while it starts to sound more and more like a V8 when it revs up.
Interestingly the opposite of a Volkswagen W8 - V8 low range, V6 sound at high revs
They sound like an airplane in real life. 😆
Chevy 3.6 V6 kinda sounds like the Northstar V8. I've heard them side by side (Impala and Cadillac) and they don't sound much different. Both had stock exhaust on.
They do start sounding like a v6 at lower rpm, but when they gas on em all bald eagles
As a (once) Buick L8 owner I can relate to this Sound very much. The coolest thing of the Buick L8 is that because of the firing order it sounds like a V8 at idle but at higher RPM’s and load its throaty voice has a unique character that is hard to miss and hard not to enjoy.
Thank you for putting in that effort, love it!
cheers!
@@WilliamMoser You probably already know Jeff Brock’s Bonneville Buick but listening to that car never gets old, so just for dessert:

That's pretty cool, never seen spats over the front wheels before

I've been on a binge watching these. They're fascinating and for the engines I'm familiar sound almost spot on to the real ones. Really awesome demonstration. Thanks TH-cam algorithm, nothing like dredging up old videos from the past and putting them at the top of my feed lol
Cheers! Stay tuned for more
@@WilliamMoser if you're making more I'll definitely subscribe. A lot of these engines you don't get to hear, like that strait 8 you made. These videos help give me a sense of what they were like and I'm a visual learner so it's much easier for me to see the firing order than read it in a shop manual.
@@spamcan9208 like the smash button! W16 will be up next/soon
Bring back the straight eight. This is what a v16 would sound like!
no no. the V16 is 4 banks of 4 cylinders. What the hell are you talking about?
Do you mean W16?
@@WilliamMoser lul yes 🤣🤣
@Jonathan Bovier I might do one of these too
Actually, this already sounds kind of like an Auto Union Typ C 😱
This sounds like it came straight from BeamNG drive.
Well the sounds in Beam are synthesized, but if they want true realism, having engine sounds simulated in this sort of manner would he super fucking cool! I wonder if I should pitch this to the devs on the forums and see what they say.
I thought the same lol
Gavril Grand Marshall anyone?

Do it, it is your destiny
Inline 8-cylinder engines are no longer made nowadays...but the V8s are still made!
Crankshaft at 6000 rpm: "bye, losers! these shackles wont bind me no more!"
9K RPM: What crankshaft? You mean the metal spear that just broke the sound barrier on it's way to space?
Damn, that's one hell of a username. Haven't seen someone do massive text art blocks like that in a long time.
Bro how the fck did you made that metal username
@@hathaway.1166 here bro, I made a mental from metal :D
Not if you go with a 6 bolt build
Looks like 2 crossplane I4's joined together. Interesting!
I believe the straight 8 crank is crossplane so you would be correct with it being 2 crossplane I4"s
Its actually kinda the same idea as an inline 6 where the two engine halves mirror each other and cancel out the primary and secondary balance. Problem is that the engine and the cams are way to long and are more fragile as a result.
This is where VW should have made the VR8
Ah, the straight-8. The right engine for it's time.
I love how the videos rumble like the real engine.
These videos are very fascinating and cool...
But NO Straight 8 ever saw the other side of 5000 RPM!! 😲😳
Not even in racing?
Someone needs to make a small-block turbo inline 8. Imagine something between a Skyline and a Charger.
Check out Brian Thomas's Packard Straight 8 if you haven't already. The Mad Lad supercharged it!
nice, id love to see a v12 engine or something related
when i watch these videos...
my neighbours be like...WHAT IS THIS GUY DRILLING???
It does sound a bit like rounding out the head of a Phillips head screw...
0:10 sounds like a Vw Bus Supercharged W16
Spot on! keep on the good vids like this one
I see all of your videos and almost liked all of them. Enjoy your job.
Will you do this for a W engine?
How affect the angle between banks the timing for the same crankshaft?
Have you considered a two stroke engine? Like Evinrude v6.
I want to replicate this, can you suggest me some lecture?
Best regards!
Thanks for the likes! I plan to do the veyron W16 some day,
Changing the bank angle for a given crank will change the sound and balance, an could make an even fire engine (firing intervals are evenly spaced over two revolutions) into an odd fire engine.(firing intervals are not evenly spaced over two revolutions)
I do plan to do some 2 stroke engines, will probably start with the 8V71, but I need to work out how to do odd fire engines properly as my code still isn't very robust.
I used arduino for these demonstrations, don;t know of any tutorials to do exactly this but arduino is a cheap and relatively easy way to do this kind of thing, and lots of other things.
Now i realize whats the purpose of the crossplane crankshaft, besides of forces balancing.
I will be waiting for the two strokes.
Hope i can reproduce this...
regards.
With this video, you basically did one side of the BRM V-16. That engine had mirrored crankshaft journals, so a normal 1342 crank and a 1243 crank.
-- I think you can do a Bugatti. It effectively has 45 degree journals. If I recall correctly, they take a normal V8 1342 crankshaft, and rotate it (forwards, or backwards, I can't remember, but they can also phase the crank pin groups apart by a multiple of 22.5 degrees, which I'm sure Bugatti has done) so that adjacent journals are obtusely opposing each other at the ends of the engine for balance. The W engine is like merging two 90 degree v8's together, and rotating them apart by 22.5 degrees (one clockwise, one counterclockwise.) Bugatti threw a curve and used 4-unit exhaust manifolds for the turbos. Coupled with that new crankshaft, you really only have to do one group of 4 cylinders to make the sound.
The interesting new capacity you have here is that you can estimate the sound of different long tube headers for the bugatti. Since the engine has 45 degree journals and a mid-engine layout, it may be possible to make long tube headers of the tri-Y design that pairs cylinders like a harley davidson in the 405/315 setup, as well as the 270 degree LS layout, concurrently giving us one interesting motherfucker of an engine.
I'm almost glad I don't have 16 lights or 4 speakers, though the veyron W16 could be interesting, using different speakers for the long and short primaries of the VR5 and VR6 engines worked pretty well and the veyron is kinda two VR engines put together.
Nice sounding motor
Sounds like a city bus ;)
Dat crank whip tho
William Moser, I'm actually really curious if a monocylinder of a dirtbike has almost the same timing as an in-line 4, wat do u think?
Awesome
damn this really souns like a staight 8
0:10 Pabllo Vittar Screaming
Can anyone explain exactly how/why they choose a firing order for various motors. Yes, I know they would need spread-out balance, but would there really be much difference if some numbers were exchanged?
there are basically 3 V8 firing orders that have been tried (out of a total of 8 possibilities for a given crankshaft design) at different times, it depends on a lot of things.
@@WilliamMoser
Yeah, thanks. I looked it up elsewhere and discovered it is a most complex equation regarding the alternating forces on main bearings, heat distribution, exhaust back pressure.
I bet an odd fire 8 that was actually an I6 with an I2 cut in half and merged to the ends would be awesome to hear! Try making a sound like this one:
1 - 90 degrees
2 - 90 degrees
9- 30 degrees
7 - 120 degrees
4 - 120 degrees
8 - 120 degrees
3 - 120 degrees
6 - 30 degrees
You should do the w12 or the 1gz-fe, viper v10
On the way, that V10 will be a bit tricky though.
Thank you!

Straight 8 would be the best sounding engine if it was made
straight 8 engines are a thing
@@emil.soderholm I mean in production cars not in a 15 meter long 50s race car

VW VR8 would be great . Bugatti gets a pair of them .
Can you do a inline 7 or 9 cylinder engine?
I didnt even know this existed
I did not even know inline engines would go above 6
Man Diesel & Turbo make inline 11 two-stroke low speed marine Diesel engines used in large container ships and power generation. In particular, the 11G90ME.
Inline-8 engines were used in normal production cars for many years
V10 and v12 that would be awesome

hey do u know the firing order for a 6 rotor engine I'm curious if it's the same as an inline 6
can't find any info for a 6 rotor but this four rotor th-cam.com/video/8u7bzoaWyZI/w-d-xo.html uses a cross plane configuration, not the flat plane a conventional 4 cylinder piston engine uses. I think it is because rotary engines fire each every revolution but a piston engine only fires every two revolutions (per rotor/cylinder)
William Moser hey thanks for actually replying to me and after some consideration of different firing orders when it comes to inline 6,4, and 3 engines either the firing order for a 6 rotor engine would be 1-5-3-6-2-4 or have essentialy 2, 3 rotor engines put together for a 1-2-3 firing at the same time as the 4-5-6 rotors for added torque as rotory engines lack torque any thoughts?
if a 4 rotor has the rotors offset at 90 degree intervals I suppose a 6 rotor would have them offset at 60 degree intervals, the firing order would depend on where the designer chose to put them. For the four cylinder crossplane configuration cylinders 1 and 4 are 180 degrees opposed and cylinders 2 and 3 are 180 degrees opposed with a 90 degree offset between 1/4 and 2/3. I would guess a similar configuration could be used with a 6 rotor?
Pairing rotors so the fire together could be done, but I'm not sure it would give more torque overall, you would have twice the torque half as often which could introduce nasty vibrations and be harder on the rest of the drivetrain and this kind of thing is fairly commonly done on motorcycle engines (making a 4 cylinder engine behave like a two cylinder for example) but it is more to combat traction issues which are less of a problem in cars due to (at least) twice as many drive tyres which are wider and flatter.
Having said that I have wanted to rephase the camshafts in an overhead cam V8 so it fires two cylinders at a time for a while just to see what it sounds like, "crankier" I would guess.
William Moser yeah upon looking into functions of the rotory engine I found that rotating each rotor by 1/6 or 60° would be the best bet and a firing order that of a inline 6 would be best and as for your idea on changing the firing order on a V8 to have multiple pistons fire at once thinking on it wouldn't that just add double the stress on the crank as well as alot of twisting/side to side motion. as a thought for a way u could do that is if u had a single inline w8 u could time the pistons to fire at the same kinda like 2 on the top left then bottom right next top right and bottom left in pairs like that but I'm not sure how efficient it would be for power but it sure would sound different maybe add a straight pipe exhaust to scare some people with it if it runs that is lol ^_^ and thanks for your help
" to have multiple pistons fire at once thinking on it wouldn't that just add double the stress on the crank as well as a lot of twisting/side to side motion. "
yeah it's a bad idea for sure, just kinda want to do it anyway. would have to be a tough/cheap/common engine like the1UZFE.
Yo siempre eh creido que un motor de 8 silindros tenia 2 silindros en explocion ala ves
does anyone know what is the crankpin angle in this engine?
90 degrees
This is fucking cool.
I keep waiting about twin pararel 180 degree
And to think Buick thought they could even do racing engines out of this...
Funnily enough everyone else did, and went through with it! Salt Flat guys, Grand National Privateer racers, Boats guys, Plane guys, and NHRA guys would run Straight 8's in sling shot dragsters. Mass Produced OHV V8's weren't a thing yet, and It made sense to use Straight 8's then since European makers and Duesenburg had great success with them in the past. Kinda like how the Big Block platform was successful then, and people still use it today. The reason Buick, and racers thought they had a chance was due to the engine's "Cam in Head" design, aka their OHV Contra-Reverse Flow head which was a way better option than every other current American Straight 8 make that was still using the Flathead design up until 1954. Buick's 320 was supposed to be their ticket, but it had a weak bottom end. Even though the Buick came equipped with OHV, it Unfortunately suffered from the same achilles heal of almost every Straight 8 engine ---> the 5 Main Bearing bottom end...thus making it a glass cannon. There was only one make in America that produced a 9 main bearing Straight 8, and no it wasn't Duesenberg. It was actually Packard! Funnily enough as bulletproof as the Packard was, it was still a Flathead. Though with Packard's 9 Main Layout in theory, can handle a fair amount of power!
That poor crankshaft...
