An excerpt from my forum These puppies are amazing! Look at that odd valve train and weird coatings on the valves.. If you look close you'll even see valve stem seals, something thats unheard of today but made possible by the friction reduction properties of the DLC coatings that you can see here. http://www.aircooledtechnology.com/coatings_2.htm Its being assembled starting tomorrow and will be dynoed in the next two weeks.... Look here for more detailed pics http://www.aircooledtechnology.com/r_d_hybrid.htm These puppies are the next level of TIV development, all the best ideas from all the basic TIV head designs ever produced all compiled into one unit.... These heads are KICK ASS! Len out did himself on the work! Lookin to put this 2316 in the "200 club" on pump gas as a daily driver. "Excellence through Research" |

Whats wrong with pic #70??
The port is shaped that way for a reason.. If you are talking about the valve guide scratch, its very small the camera just blows it way up.. The first time you do anything like this is a total learning curve anyway- Who gives a damn what they look like! There is a TON of labor in these- its a wonder they don't have more scratches than that! The valve seats were swapped 3 times trying to find the perfect profile, guides were swapped 2-3 times to change profiles for flow impact comparison too... |
