    Mr. Sandlin, you’ll probably never see this but I am about to graduate from ASU with a bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering and you’ve been a major inspiration since high school. Thank you, you honestly have no idea how much this channel means to me (and I’m such other people).
  • You know Destin knows exactly how a combustion engine works and what the names of all the parts are. I love how he asks how it works and the names and sounds honestly so those of us who don't know don't feel stupid. This is one of the real ingenious ways Destin teaches. He lets everyone know it is OK not to know something and not not be afraid to ask questions and not be embarrassed. He is a great educator.
  • @jonnyphenomenon
    @smartereveryday Hey Destin, those weren't misfires. That's just how the firing order operates. Those flashes of light are hard to follow, but on quarter speed they are easier to catch. Most older v8's used a firing order of 18436572 - this engine was firing 18726543, which is the firing order adopted by GM on the LS engines to reduce crankshaft torsional vibration. I didn't have those figures memorized, but I knew enough about firing orders to want to know the truth, so I looked it up! :D
  • @willzone0295
    Great job bringing light to smaller creators!!
  • @BloodyMobile
    12:30 you can tell that he does stuff like that a lot by how "normal" he makes it sound. That doesn't happen until something's natural to you. And yes, it is impressive.
  • @theblubus
    Dustin I always love the human aspect you never neglect to include in your videos about people. This ended up being such a special video more about someone, their interests, and their life more so than the plastic encased V8 engine showpiece. Well done and thank you for sharing. It's a beautiful experience when people can sit down and chat about their lives and what makes them who they are.
  • @Shadow0fd3ath24
    As a car guy and LS lover...the car alone is nuts, let alone carbon chassis and transparent engine. So cool to see you help him out and show his invention
  • @integza
    I've never seen something like that! That's INSANE!
  • @John18435
    As a mechanic by trade and a gear head by hobby, I love seeing people learn more about these intricate feats of engineering that have become a part of our daily lives.
  • @KingGr33N
    Destin, I’ve been watching your videos for many years and I love your enthusiasm, kindness, willingness and enjoyment to learn, and your ability to share it to us in a digestible fun manner. Thank you so much man. I hope I get to meet you one day and build some fun stuff
  • @AntiSocialYogg
    Its a great day when, a new SmarterEveryDay video is released.
  • @Jonathan.Boring
    This reminds me of those small transparent engine kits. Very cool!
  • @GamingByOne
    As a car enthusiast this was amazing to watch! Working with all these parts individually and putting them together is one thing but seeing them all actually move in conjunction was something else
  • @shortymcsteve
    This was awesome! I finally confidently understand how an engine works thanks to both you and Brian. What a great explanation. I have a huge amount of respect to the people who figured out how to build this piece of engineering in the first place, and to Brian for his amazing build.
  • While watching this video, I couldnt keep a smile off my face and I wanted to thank you for making such wholesome and informative content. As an up-and-coming mechanic, I really enjoyed the explanation of that awesome transparent engine.
  • @KazRow
    Even if you know how to work on cars and how engines work, being able to clearly see the internals in action is so awesome. Brian seems like a great guy, incredible video!
  • @rustino666
    That's really cool. There's a Russian youtube channel that recently built an engine with a transparent block that actually ran on fuel. The first attempt failed spectacularly but the second one ran for long enough to get some amazing footage. Worth watching if you enjoyed this.
