    Smile Miniature Honda engines? (Educational)

    Do they sell scaled down FULL engines?
    Literally the same with seals and everything.
    I'm pretty much interested in learning the engine inside and out so preferably a kit that comes in parts and you build it back up.

    So far, I only found this by Revell, but not sure how 1:1 it is when it comes down to parts.

    Living on the 3rd floor of a dorm with minimal storage so can't buy a real engine lol

    sounds fun, but i don't know if a model is worth that much to me.

    Thanks six7teen lol

    A lot of reviews say that it is so old (the ones they receive) that the parts are warped.

    well since i know how the engine works, it really wouldn't be teaching me anything. just something cool for me to look at and show off to my friends.

    $60 for something that small, i'll pass. $5k for something else, it better be a car.
