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" |

Nice work Len and Jake. Too bad the plug is pointed in the wrong direction. But that is something that would require much more work.
I assume that you are using a certian ring from a certian company that sells a lot of Hype? doubt you will see much as far as gains on a street motor. It may even burn too much oil for the street. Most of the people I know using 2 ring pistons are running vaccum systems and not a top ring from the company that I am thinking about. Even the pros that run the rings from this company don't even run the same type of rings that this company sells to the average joe. |
