The compression ratio isn’t just a number: it’s one of the greatest determining factors in engine building. Compression ratio determines the type of fuel, how much boost, and has a significant ...
To measure both the deck height volume and the piston dome volume, the piston is initially positioned 1 inch below the block deck. An O-ring is used in place of the top ring to form a seal. When ...
At first glance, the concept of engine compression is simple enough:It's the ratio of the volume of the combustion chamber and bore when thepiston is at bottom dead center (BDC) versus when it is at ...
Every engine has a specific compression ratio. The air-fuel mixture is compressed in the cylinder to create an ignition, the force of which depends on the compression ratio: the volume of the cylinder ...
Finding the correct length for aftermarket shocks takes more than an axle at full droop and a tape measure. Many factors need to be considered, so we headed down to Bilstein in Poway, California, to ...
Increasing an engine’s compression ratio is a proven way of unlocking extra horsepower, but there’s a point of diminishing returns. The team at Garage 54, the Russian mechanics who built a V16 using ...
SAE International Journal of Engines, Vol. 2, No. 1 (2009), pp. 1574-1586 (13 pages) ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to examine the operating characteristics of a light duty multi cylinder ...
