V8 Engine - Bojan Niceno - 2020-04-08
Dear all,
I use LDCAD to design my own models, but am stuck with the engine. I would like to build a V8, but can't find any engine components. Just to make sure, I am referring to the standard engine, like this one:

Anyone has an idea where they are?
Cheers,
Bojan

- Library sorted by function -> Technic parts -> Misc Technic part (last bin) -> browse down the about half of bin, or key in "engine" in filter field.
- Search the inventory bin (minifig with magnifier) then key in "engine" (or "technic engine" to narrow search) in filter field
...and remember that there is an awesome helper tool to place pistons and connecting rods (Scripts -> Technic -> Piston placement helper)
