How many cylinders?  Rember that only half fire in any one revolution, at
least if this is a two stroke gasoline engine.

OK.

Where to begin.  First 8000 RPM is a frequency.  Second, 133.33 is clearly
not a frequency since frequency has units of 1/time.

What you apparently mean is 133Hz.  Pay attention to details.  They matter.

If the engine speed is 133Hz and it is a two-stroke engine, then each
cylinder fires at a rate of 67Hz.

Again, none of these are correct as should be obvious since they aren't in
units of 1/time.
