The V8 isn't just an engine; it is a cultural icon of power and freedom. The CISON V8-440 "Small-block" brings that legendary thunder to your workbench. This is not a toy—it is a 1/6 scale, 44cc gasoline-burning beast that captures the soul of the golden age of muscle cars. Whether you are an RC veteran looking for the ultimate heart for your custom build, or a collector seeking the pinnacle of miniature engineering, the V8-440 delivers. From the first spark to the 10,000 RPM scream, this is mechanical art that you build, tune, and command.
Why Choose the CISON V8-440?
- The "Small-Block" Aesthetic: Inspired by classic American V8 heritage, this OHV (Overhead Valve) version features a stunning electroplated orange finish. It visually screams "high performance" even when sitting still.
- Real Gasoline Power (4.8 HP): This is a serious powerplant. With a 44cc displacement and a high-performance CDI ignition system, it delivers approximately 4.8 horsepower. It’s capable of revving from a low rumble at 1500 RPM to a screaming 10,000 RPM.
- Precision Meets Durability: Crafted with 5-axis CNC machining (accurate to 0.005mm), the fit and finish are exquisite. It features a robust 5-point supported crankshaft and hardened connecting rods, ensuring it can handle high-speed operation without flinching.
- The Ultimate RC Upgrade: Unlike static displays, this engine is ready to work. With enhanced torque and a compact footprint, it is the dream upgrade for 1/5 or 1/6 scale RC muscle cars, trucks, or boats.
Technical Highlights: Engineering Excellence
- OHV Architecture: The Overhead Valve design isn't just for looks; it provides the classic torque curve and sound signature of a real muscle car engine.
- Advanced Cooling & Lubrication: Features a double-layer gear water pump for efficient liquid cooling and an independent lubrication system with a reserved oil filter slot. This ensures the engine runs cool and lasts long, even under load.
- High-Performance Internals:
- Camshaft: High-stroke, wear-resistant, 4-point supported.
- Valves: Oversized intake valves for better airflow and power.
- Piston Rings: Optional dual cast iron rings for superior compression sealing.

Usage Scenario: The Garage Symphony
Imagine the scene: You’ve spent the weekend assembling the kit, learning the intricacies of the camshaft and crankshaft. Now, it's mounted on the stand. You verify the fuel lines, check the water cooling, and engage the starter. The V8 catches—a deep, rhythmic idle that vibrates through the table. As you open the throttle, the deep growl transforms into a high-pitched roar. This is the closest you can get to shrinking a real car engine. It’s a masterpiece that will be the envy of every gearhead you know.
Important Tips from the Expert
- Break-in is Crucial: Like any high-performance engine, the V8-440 requires a proper break-in period. Run it at moderate RPMs with a slightly rich mixture for the first few tanks to seat the piston rings and bearings.
- Lubrication: Do not neglect the oil system. Use high-quality 10W50 2T engine oil. The independent lubrication system is the engine's lifeline.
- Customization: The "Green" and "Red" color versions mentioned in some circles are custom orders; this version features the classic Orange electroplating.
