Air Powered Straight Eight

Remember back to the Great Depression, the economy was in ruin, but that didn't stop manufacturers. They continued to crank out cars and other materials non-stop. Imaging those sleek lines, the gleaming paint, and the hypnotic rumble of a straight eight under the hood. During this time many people couldn't afford many things, including gasoline to fuel the cars they may have had. That is a problem no more! This engine is powered by a clean, common, cheap fuel source. Compressed air. By using compressed air as a fuel source, this engine can be powered by an air compressor plugged into your wall, a compressor used to power airbag suspension, or perhaps a compressor powered by the rotation of the wheels of a car, the possibilities are endless.Danville Community CollegeInstructor: Rob Huffman
