"It is not based on any type of scaled down full size engine, no castings were used in this engine, this engine was constructed based on ideas I thought would look neat and be fun to machine."

I would like to see a scale reference maybe the guy standing by it or some model or something. 5.6 cubic inches... .09 liter engine that is probably small?

you can see the size of it when the guy standing near it in the clip. if i remember correctly.. maybe its olny his arms as he lets more air in the carb.
