  • The V8 Engine is a vehicle upgrade featured in RAGE. It comes equipped on the Cuprino. The V8 Engine is a rather weak Engine and provides very little use unless alongside other upgrades. In Vehicle Combat, it most likely will not provide an advantage when escaping or chasing bandits unless paired with the C3C Evenflow Max Boost and the C3C Sport Suspension upgrades. In Racing, it is recommended that the player purchases the V10 Engine by the time they reach Subway Town as the V8 Engine will not provide the speed needed to win the Cuprino class races of the Subway Town Speedway.
  • A V8 engine is a V engine with eight cylinders mounted on the crankcase in two banks of four cylinders, in most cases set at a right angle to each other but sometimes at a narrower angle, with all eight pistons driving a common crankshaft.

abstract
  • A V8 engine is a V engine with eight cylinders mounted on the crankcase in two banks of four cylinders, in most cases set at a right angle to each other but sometimes at a narrower angle, with all eight pistons driving a common crankshaft. In its simplest form, it is basically two straight-4 engines sharing a common crankshaft. However, this simple configuration, with a single-plane crankshaft, has the same secondary dynamic imbalance problems as two straight-4s, resulting in vibrations in large engine displacements. As a result, since the 1920s most V8s have used the somewhat more complex crossplane crankshaft with heavy counterweights to eliminate the vibrations. This results in an engine which is smoother than a V6, while being considerably less expensive than a V12 engine. Most racing V8s continue to use the single plane crankshaft because it allows faster acceleration and more efficient exhaust system designs.
