-It is still possible to admire a V8 Rinek at the Yorkshire Air Museum.

-The 40-60 hp V8 engine with a displacement of 572 cu. in. is also from 1909.

-In 1910 Rinek made the 50-75 hp engine with the same water-cooled V8 formula, and another similar one of 80-90 hp in 1911.

“Rinek B8”

-The B4 model from 1910 was a 40 hp, in-line, four cylinder with a displacement of 201 cu. in.

-And the B8, the one in the photograph, mounted on a Voisin that was made by Rinek, gave 40-60 hp and had a displacement of 402 cu. in. (two B4 engines in V8). It was rotating at 1,200 rpm.
