Trends UK Haynes Build Your Own V8 Engine

Trends UK Haynes Build Your Own V8 Engine

Q: how big and reliable is this engine? and can it be used for anything? say a small go-cart to a full size vehicle.

no not a go cart just like say, a small spaceship you could go to the moon! just don't light a cigarette onboard and be safe kids! :D

Q: Some pictures of the box say that it contains over 250 parts, while others say it has over 100 parts. Are there two different versions of this kit?

I just built it. It has exactly 179 parts, not including the 108 screws and 2 washers. You actually have a lot of extra screws, too. The box is obviously including the hardware for marketing. At least the description is honest.

Q: I noticed it says "uk" in the name. is that part of the company name, or is it a different engine then in the us?

Trends UK is the company that Haynes Publishing Group (creators of the Haynes Auto Repair Manuals) chose to put the kits together for them. So it is just a branding issue. It is the same motor, albeit scaled down and in plastic, that you would find in an American car with a V8 engine.

Q: Can i use this motor instead of an expensive LS swap ?

Lol. Might be low on horsepower.
