      Back in the day in a communist country if you got the opportunity to have a car you kept that car on the road any way you can. It's how they have skills like this and that gets passed down. In a country like the US or Japan cars are much more disposible. My uncle who was a street sweeper mechanic and worked for the city and motor pool in the military HE had skills like this. Anyone working on regular cars in the US would just buy a new crack or a new car because they are so plentiful and available. A lot of these old cars you see in Cuba are like this, hardcore hack jobs but because of that they have no real value on the international classic car market.

    The cross plane crank in motorcycle applications was intended to help the drive tire have improved traction by controlling the power pulses released by the engine. Instead of the power pulses with the standard firing order assaulting the tire and making it harder to control, the cross plane crank allowed a pause in the firing and this allows the tire to gain traction.

    • @gordowg1wg145
      @gordowg1wg145 4 месяца назад +1

      Not quite, that ISN'T the reason the dual plane was designed, it was to counter the MECHANICAL torque fluctuations from the inertial fluctuations, which had much higher spikes than the actual power impulses - but you are correct in the intent being to give better drive traction.
      I had thought of having a proper conversion done, with custom crankshaft and camshaft grinds, for a 4 cylinder car, but there is no point because the issues it was designed to counter don't exist in that application. Well, maybe a BIG 4 cylinder, like THOR?

  • @honkie247
    @honkie247 9 месяцев назад +399

    Other than the possibility of the cam lobes and crankshaft throws being slightly off, the problem with the engine not revving lies in the intake manifold. It was designed for a flat plane crankshaft, and it was manufactured to flow well with that crank setup. Make a pair of manifolds with two runners each and a single carb on each manifold. The engine will rev until the crank falls out.

    • @Catrik
      @Catrik 9 месяцев назад +58

      The intake has four individual runners. It is not going to make any difference if its a flatplane or crossplane engine. It doesnt rev because the crank- and camshaft are complete junk, literally welded together from pieces. They should be turned and balanced, and even then you're missing a balance shaft, which is going to be a pretty diffcult issue to solve.

    • @honkie247
      @honkie247 9 месяцев назад +68

      @@CatrikI agree that the intake has 4 individual runners, but it is fed from a common plenum . The center two cylinders would run rich, because the carb is directly across from them, and those runners are shorter, so they make those runners smaller in diameter to lean the mixture. The outer runners are longer and of a different diameter. They were designed for that particular firing order, which has dramatically changed, which will make a different intake manifold design necessary.
      There are cam grinders that make a cam for Ford 351W engines to change the firing order. More horsepower results, but the stock intake manifold must be changed or two cylinders (I don't recall which two) run rich with the new firing order.

      It can make sense for a high power race bike since the power pulses to that single rear wheel can be safer and more predictable for the rider when accelerating out of a corner. The more trust the rider has in such a machine, the faster they'll be comfortable running it on a track. There's a reason even Yamaha didn't do this for models right below the R1. It's a complex setup that sounds awesome but really only makes sense for niche situations.

    The reason yamaha used the crossplane in the r6 was to change the firing spacing. Normally, the spacing is even but with the crossplane you get 2 cylinders firing in quick succesion then a breif pause the idea was the 2 quick pulses would accelerate you out of the corner while the small pauses give the tires a break keeping from exceeding the grip of the tires. Quick edit: This is why the cross plane motors were called big bang motors . The 2 quick power pulses acted as a bigger power pulse.

    Good effort! You are half way there.
    Now do one in a different way : cut the crank in the middle only, and rotate one half 90° away. You will see that Yamaha has done it wrong. This way, it can operate without balancer shafts, same as an URS engine.

      I guess I’m referring to an extremely advanced machine shop that can truly balance cranks, use dial micrometers to clock and rotate the cams and crank shaft. Basically actually build the engine like they were factory or aftermarket parts that are perfectly clocked and balanced. I love that they do stuff like this. But taking a flat plane crank to a cross plane with no adjustments to the counter weights on the crank is going to cause huge vibrations, like what broke the bell housing. It would be super cool to see a “built” cross plane Lada engine that they could put on dynos and take racing.

    The advantage of Yamaha's cross-plane arrangement, as i understand it, is to stack power stokes so traction will break momentarily when traction is near its limit.
    This is useful (as feedback) for motorcycle riders as they (we) apply throttle when exiting a turn to accelerate. As the rear tire begins to untermittently slip, the rider can optimally modulate power for the conditions.
    It seems to me, this mod would only help in a car; 1) if your engine has enough power to break traction, and 2) the car doesn't have ABS/traction control.

      Except in a car you have twice the number of tires and the drive train offers more ways to deal with similar issues, other than traction control (I'm not sure how ABS would be relevant here). The feedback you'd get pushing a motorcycle really wouldn't be all that useful in a car and the ones with enough instant power to matter wouldn't be a 4 cylinder anyway.

    A long anticipated episode and one after my own heart. Still cant beleive the welding skill of these guys, Lada must use forged steel (ie not cast iron) in thier cranks for this one to even survive being cranked to life (after chop and weld), let alone the lumpty dump torsional vibration it is subjected to with this firing order. One question answered here is how much low rpm idle vibration there is in a X-plane 4 without balance shafts. Best episode yet and many thanks for playing out a dream.
    In a dedicated production car all issues would be solved using a 270 degree crank boxer 4 layout, and sticking to a heavily built manual FWD transmission. There's absolutely no advantage to be held in this power dynamic accept acceleration and that head turning sound.

    The original intent of the cross-plane crank was to create uneven spacing of the power pulses as they made it to the rear wheel, this allowed a small moment for the rear wheel to regain traction in a corner, which increased stability at the cost of engine vibration, which is compensated for by using balancing shafts

    Very neat video. I know this comment is being posted to the video 2 months after it has been posted online, but I do have one suggestion for the balance. Besides Yamaha, GM produced an TON of crossplane I4s in the form of the Detroit 2 stroke diesel engine. If I'm not mistaken, they balanced those particular engines mainly using the crank itself via the counterweights. Cylinders 1 and 4 have counterweights while 2 and 3 don't. If this is implemented on this engine it should smooth it out to some extent, although due to it being 4 stroke and oddfire, there is nothing that can be done to make it run without vibrations from the uneven power delivery. The balance shaft in the Yamaha basically is composed of similar counterweights to take care of the primary imbalance, while the crank has counterweights for each cylinder. I think their solution was chosen to allow for the engine to rev quickly.
