  Lada engines don’t have valve / piston interference. They won’t explode. But yeah: the 3D-printed parts won’t last even a trip to the supermarket.

    Glorious soviet engineering saves the day half-trip to the supermarket xD

    Luckily it’s so empty that you won’t have your car weighted down by your groceries

        Is that comment supposed to be mean ? (I genuinely don’t understand, sorry)

    What about filling the oil pan with plastic, blocking the pickup, and starving the engine of oil? lol

      Cam gears are on the outside of the engine though. No danger of all of that.
