how many cylinders does a v8 engine have
A V8 engine is an eight-cylinder V configuration engine with the cylinders mounted on the crankcase in two sets (or banks) of four, with all eight pistons driving a common crankshaft. Most banks are set at a right angle (90 °) to each other, some at a narrower angle, with 45 °, 60 °, and 72 ° most common.
