VIDEO: How a V8 works

Nothing to it, really. You turn the key, and when you hear a noise coming from the front of the car, it's working!
It's like that WW II submarine commander who was interviewed after the war. The reporter said "it must have been really difficult to get that thing to submerge in a hurry." The skipper said "it wasn't difficult at all. I just yelled 'DIVE' and that SOB went down." It's all relative, I guess.
Heard a V8 at the shopping mall today....
looked up to see it was a Land Rover. Oh well....
