Stronger and Faster: V8 Solenoid Engine

In the past I have made a 1 cilinder solenoid engine and a V4 solenoid engine. They turned out really cool, but today I’m going to improve on it by making a V8 solenoid engine.
To improve it I not only double the amount of solenoids I’m also going to make the crankshaft on my cnc mill and use infrared sensors for the switching of the solenoids.

Specs:
- Voltage: 12V
- Spool wire used: 0,4 mm diameter
- Estimated wire length per spool: 40 meter
- Spool resistance: 5 ohm
- Max rpm measured: 1000RPM
