You guys come up with a lada ideas

Try to make a boxer engine from two lada engines😏

We need to band together around the world and do stuff like this instead of fighting! I only wish and hope! Thank You!!

The German engineers at Daimler Benz in the 1930's did this with their DB601 48 valve SOHC inverted V12 of 35 liters of displacement, used on the Messerschmitt BF-109 fighter plane and a few others. The BF-109 was a tailwheel single engine single seat airplane. Due to the tailwheel, the airplane sat at a nose up angle. The engineers at Daimler Benz inverted their V12 for two reasons: 1. The oil pan was really just a cover over the bottom of the crankcase. This it was pretty much a flat plate. This served to lower the nose profile, making it easier for the pilot to see over the nose of the plane. The propellor reduction gear was a planetary arrangement, since this mounting put the output shaft higher up. 2. This design allowed the heads and all the assorted intakes, fuel injectors, plumbing, and wiring to be serviced by a man standing on the ground under the engine. The British Rolls Royce Merlin was also a V12, but it was upright and servicing the engine required a scaffold or ladders. The upright cylinder heads made the nose that much higher up, reducing visibility, especially when taxiing. The reduction gear used upright gears, adding weight versus a planetary gear arrangement. -The only real negative about this is that when the engine is shut off, over time oil tends to drip downward due to gravity and collect in the low mounted cylinder heads. This can in extreme cases cause hydraulic lock. Radial engines have this problem, and it is normal to turn the propellor over a few "blades" by HAND in order to make sure that this is not occuring. If a strong resistance is suddenly felt, it is best to remove all the lower spark plugs and turn it over again. No automobile has been built like this, since there is no practical reason to do it this way, but dry sump lubrication via scavenge and then oil tank pumps are common on Porsche cars, and race cars generally do it this way. In this particular situation, he has the light on all the time because the electric pumps are just not enough, and in most engines, oil flow to the camshaft area is not very high. An engine that is inverted needs the oil system to be designed in a specific way to be inverted as a result. Many light aircraft engines have the "AE" prefix to their official FAA designation to denote aerobatic oil and fuel preparation, such as the Cessna 152 Aerobat, that used the AEO-235 four cylinder engine. Great video!

Nikolai: "I mean... when did we ever failed?" He speaks the truth! G54 never let us down!

Making the impossible look easy, every week! No one does it better than the one and only Garage 54... Cheers from Canada!

A Lada near these guys must feel like a lawnmower around project farm.. lol

The "Vlad explores other shops concerning his troubles road trips" are always a blast.PUT OUT the closed sign,,,here comes VLAD!!!

Still answering my unexpected questions I never had about cars in a practical way. I love the 'hack it up and make it work' approach, it's great

Looks like there could be a good market for this engine down under!!!

Well anything is possable in this shop the effort that went into this configuration is amazing. well done guys if it can be done this is the place to come for your modification..

Welding that aluminium bellhousing with big amps, in a t-shirt, you ruskies are built tough.!

Try putting an engine on a trailer and that engine to power the wheels of the trailer it’s on and connect the trailer to the car and how does it feel to drive like that 😂

“What about warranty?” “Just like every shop gives you, up to the gate” 😂

In radial engines, some of the cylinders are upside-down. They have been around for over 100 years

Need to convert to a dry sump system too.

Letting it sit while off, the oil would drain into the cylinders. Mercedes solved this somehow for the Messerschitt 209, but I don't know what they did

How do you come up with a new cursed idea in so many videos? This is truly one of the best cursed engines to date. And all the reactions to the absurd is fantastic.

This is one of the best yet! Going where no one has gone before. Amazing

World famous air race pilot Steve Whitman turned an Olds V8 inverted in his home built aircraft the Tail Wind and flew it many times. It worked great and sold plans on how to do it.

These guys are on a level of their own! Crazy but the good kind😂

Hahaha safety squint welding! 😂

Before I die needs to have a LADA😂😂

So many people getting a laugh and enjoyment out of this. Magic!

G54 doing more engineering tests than any car maker lol

Some of your friends need an oil change in their jackets.

Inchalada hot today, chilly tamale ...don't start tomorrow or some rods you'll hafta borrow~

Can I buy the invisible welding/safety goggles from an affiliate link somewhere?

Hahaha what a brilliant experiment! Multiple times I fell of my chair laughing 👍🏻😆

You’re right down on power because of the Oil bypass in the rings. also Down on power due to the weight of oil in the back cups of the pistons. keep up the good work, love all these mad modifications.😂

This is exactly what I was waiting for 😂

Well done fella's well done ..Have had this same talk with a few blokes in the past .. Thumbs up from Australia .

"Why is the engine upside down?". Answer, "KZfaq".

Try it at 90° have a flat four engine. might not burn so much oil

Ok, now add huge wheel spacers and put it on 2-3 meter tall wheels so you can flip the car with the engine upside-down upside-down so the engine is running right-side up again. Might be hard getting in the drivers seat.

Can already tell you the bearings are going to burn up from oil starvation, and it will smoke like hell.

Can you build your own engine? Casting the Block etc? So dont buy any manufactured parts.

I absolutely love it!! You all are the best! Please keep'em coming, friend!!

"It runs quietly, but why is the warning light on?" Love you guys and always entertained! Maybe burn 2 stroke oil in that!

Again when you start laughing from the thumbnail!!!

Omg I LOVE THE IDEAS you guys come up with. Ideas and literally experiments that answer so many good engineering questions ⁉️ good channel that will make you laugh

4:31 There is blue smoke coming out of the exhaust. The engine is burning oil as it’s running. Because the crank case is above the pistons, oil is getting past the control rings and into the combustion chambers.

Love the creative ideas you guys come up with! This is awesome!

You guys are absolutely incredible.

You guys never let us down. Always a new video for Sunday mornings. Keep up the good work😀

Absolutely brilliant hahahah .. This'd be an epic car show piece .. Engineering at its finest :) ..

Brilliant work. You guys are awesome.

The only questions I have are about coolant flow and getting that trans centered to make the clutch work!

Simple answer, Yes. It will start and run because of the combustion, the problem is oil starvation. Once the crank gets no oil cooling and lubricity it will seize. Fun video either way. Just to show what can happen.

Does that engine have a single or double underhead camshaft ?...

I just love how youse make look so back street but youse fellas have a huge amount of talent 😊. Best content going right here

This guy never runs out of ideas 🧠

Awesome, visiting the neighborhood was quite funny to watch hahah

Svaka cast i na ideji i na realizaciji 💪

He really said, “it should work, when have we ever failed?”

Fantastic, I liked the guy that said that's nothing unusual from one of your cars. Good Job

the mechanics brains is upside down watching this

Garage 54, going to place no one has been before !!!

Working to hard as usual-sure looks good-great show-thank you again

To start? Yes of course. To run or a while without self-destructing? Ahh there's the rub. The Daimler-Benz 600 series engines are fun to look at if you want to see ones designed that way. Lots of upside-down airplane engine designs, to help keep the axis of the propeller near the top of the plane

Still the greatest channel on KZfaq for automotive shanagins 😁

Take it to get an oil change at a shop with the upside down engine and see how they react.

11:39 looks like it needs a ring job!

The Messerschmitt bf109 engine was a V12 designed to be "upside down" with dry sump. That was a very successful plane, so it's definitely been done before.

I think you guys have peaked when it comes to ideas! 🤣🤣🤣

Love the videos keep them coming

I need that tool you used to put on the intake and exhaust

I have a video idea. Remove engine oil and run the engine on 2stroke fuel mixture

Next video vertical engine connected directly to the differential. 💪🏻🤯

Lmao I just started thinking about how this would work and then I realized all the oil will be on top of the pistons

Thank you for all the laughs

The most Australian thing to do to engine since Holden.🤣

I wonder if the original designer of the Lada or group of designers is still alive. I would love to see their reactions to what all these guys have done to these cars

LOL Free mosquito removal while driving. Nice!!!

Lada designers and engineers must be proud.

‼️”you can’t start a motor upside down” Rotary Engines: Exist

There's no dipstick... 😂

There's no reason am engine wouldn't run upside down. You would need better oil drainage to the valve covers, which are now the oil pans, and use a dry sump scavenging oil pump with a reservoir and full pressure lubrication. Many airplane engines of WWII had cylinders below the crankshaft, like radials, Junkers Jumo, and inverted V's. To prevent oil from flooding cylinders through valve guides or other means, you have to keep oil from pooling inside the engine.

garage 54 music always on point

Look at the Mercedes DB 600 Engines, they were "upside down" too. The difference they were made to be that way so it wont hydrolock.

Have you guys found what's the Lada engine limits with big super/turbochargers? Like a rear tire smoke machine...

Vlad: showing off to the world, on youtube is great, but, nuthin like showing the local boys, and shooting the breeze.

It's upside-down oil will drain into the cylinders past the rings. Put straight 50w or 90w maybe 5w50

I could swear I found WWI planes that had upside down engines, too.

Who would run an engine upside down ?...... Garage 54 LOL Nice video guys

The endless experiments that can be done with Ladas is impressive.

It will be so cool to make a 8 - cylinder lada boxer. Two lada engines with one common crankshaft.. 🤔😅

Where you come up with these ideas ill never know 😂

Thinking of the oil burning, do the same but with a diesel engine, how long till runaway?

Yo next time, Flat 4 Lada motor

Lada dee, Lada da, what has Garage54 got install for another Lada.

The ME-109 has an inverted engine has to be a dry sump to work right but im pretty sure this has to be engineered from the beginning, gratz you turned a lada into a BMW

awesome. Greetings from Slovakia

Some people never heard of a radial engine I guess. Piston is upside-down.

I really like the community reaction very holesome

This defiles everything that my grandson knows about cars and trucks and lawnmower’s and 2 stroke engines he says that 2 stroke engines only have compression at the top of the stroke and then the piston fires back down the inside of the bore

How about a rotated transmission : the output shaft is driven by the engine while the inputshaft drives the differential.

Keep the oil from filling the cylinders while off for ling periods of time without a dry sump will be interesting

Awesome build

At this point, Garage54 is just doing it to entertain all their mechanic buddies with the stupidest mods, love it haha!
