Fascinating History of the 4 Cylinder Engine
The design of this 4 Cylinder Engine model is inspired by a pivotal moment in automotive history. In 1913, Jules Goux drove a Peugeot racing car to victory at the Indianapolis 500 Grand Prix. The engine powering this vehicle was an innovative in-line four-cylinder design by Ernest Henry, featuring the groundbreaking implementation of dual overhead camshafts and four valves per cylinder. This revolutionary approach to engine design established a new standard for racing engines that continues to influence modern automotive engineering to this day.
The birth of the in-line 4 Cylinder Engine dates back to 1894, when Maybach and Paul Daimler completed the development of an engine with a cast cylinder block, incorporating Maybach's newly patented carburetor technology. By the end of the 19th century, virtually every high-quality automobile worldwide utilized this 4 Cylinder Engine design from Maybach, laying the foundation for modern automotive engineering. This model faithfully recreates this important piece of industrial history, allowing you to assemble a working replica of one of humanity's most influential mechanical innovations.
