How do I run the LEGO Technic V6 engine using a Lego electric motor? I am not into LEGO, don't know anything about it, so I will try to be as specific as possible.

My goal is to spin the LEGO Technic V6 engine (preferably at some realistic RPM's like thousands).

Since I can't combust air and gasoline inside, my simple idea was to run it with LEGO electric motor from LEGO Technic Power Functions Motor Set 8293.

Obviously, I need to connect them somehow and make them run. I don't have any other LEGO pieces available. What do I need to buy (the minimum) to get this running?

Here's the type of V6 that I'm referring to:



Hope that explains what I want and I hope someone can help me, I will be very thankful!
Assuming that your motor already has a Technic axle available, you'll need:


Any Technic motor. You probably want an M motor (8883).
An appropriate battery box or other power source. If you selected the above motor, you probably want the PF battery box that uses AA batteries (8881).
Any Technic elements that you want to actually mount the motor onto the V6. In the case of the above, you could get away with a shorter axle and a few Technic pins. If I were you, I'd either purchase a small Technic set (e.g. https://brickset.com/sets/42088-1/Cherry-Picker), or an assortment of Technic elements on Bricklink.


Most Technic motors aren't especially fast (~400 RPM). If you want an RPM up in the thousands, you'll need at least a couple of gears as well.
