Jake,
What is there about these steel cylinders that keeps them from having "Acceleration properties".? What would prohibit their use in an automotive application? Clayton |

What is there about these steel cylinders that keeps them from having "Acceleration properties".? Jake was talking about the heads specifically. Port design and valve size would likely to be tailored to provide specific advantages at a particular cruising RPM. An engine designed for specific applications would not likely do well in another specific application. Just compare 1/4 mile engines with sprint car engines with endurance car engines. |
