Five Golden Porting rules - Rule #1 Part 2
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 27 авг 2024
- In this, PowerTec 10, episode 34, part 2 of rule #1, DV covers the importance of the bowl shape as this can utilize the kinetic energy in the main part of the port to step up the pressure at the approach to the valve seat.
Just as a matter of reference here this is about the most comprehensive porting info on RUclips and it will, from the tech aspect, take a novice right through to expert over the course of the 5 rule series. If you don't think we are going in that direction we would be happy to hear you comments concerning such.
Getting first hand knowledge from someone like you is a blessing. Underrated channel.
I have no doubt this channel is going to blow up big. Great stuff.
Holy moly, I thought I knew many of the procedures but not to the finer points you have patiently developed.
Ive been doing heads for almost 30 years and have read your books at an early age. Used a superflow 600 when I started. Built my own flowbench 15 years ago. That was something I had to go after. The fact that this kind of content is available free from such a legend is still baffling to me. Always wanted to attend the AETC from superflow but never could. In any case I'm glad to see your still at it and I know I will do this stuff till the day I'm gone...thank you DV
Book name please
This gentleman is a genius thanks a lot
Glad his info is uploaded for all to access from here on out
🇦🇺🙂
I'm just getting started at porting my own heads,first time doing this.lfind all Good. Info I can and soak it up. Really appreciate guys like yourself taking time to educate me. Thank you!
I dont respond to requests for a sub. But this deserves an exception. Thankyou for spreading knowledge sir
As a young (35) mechanical engineer and gearhead, knowledge like this is gold. I love the science and art of building high performance engines, understanding how and why upgrades work. I don't want the 'magic' of the internal combustion engine to fade. Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
Look up the patents for pivoting puppet valves. See if you can fix all the problems
Totally Bro, can't see the electric car community getting as excited over wire gauges and coil windings!
@@gregroles69 ,,,,ya mean the 4 or maybe three wheeled cell phones of the alien future,,,,,LOL,,,,I'll be dust in space........and glad I had my youth and era......
I get the feel this guy is an educator through and through. From the sound clips and art, to the rough cuts and I suspect that is because he has information he cares great about sharing concisely and straightforward. Which is all good, of course. Just an observation. This man is making me question the thumper head I purchased and to investigate to check his job. Which I do absolutely think is important. I originally came to see exhaust headers and looking to tune my own for a four cyl. But I obviously stayed! Lol. I do think there is verifiable truth to what the team has put together and I hope to put it to use as well!

Mr. DV, in my own opinion, the more detailed your information is on the topics covered from your deep knowledge, the greater our knowledge about it. I personally appreciate your teachings and dedication in these videos. Thank you very much. Greetings from Argentina
I can't see why anyone wouldn't like your videos. Keep it up!
I subscribed within 45 seconds of coming across the first video I randomly watched. I like that hones, no BS, no fake claims approach. I do think that isn't what the era favors, so don't beat yourself over what could you do to improve. You're a master and part of that is never stop looking for learning and improving. Nowadays people would watch your content and leave within 2 minutes without learning to go check stupid vids for 40 minutes not realizing they've lost precious time learning nothing. We're dinosaurs, in a way.
So did I!
Aerospace engineer teaching cyl.head porting wo😅w I learned from joe mondello the quote father of cyl. Porting and all he taught me how to do was hold the grinder better so you don't grind a crooked port. You learn from trial and error. Now if you can afford a CNC machine you can be a head porter no grinder and no dust to breathe. That shit put me out of work. Machines replacing humans. Terminator is coming!! Lol
Proud I found you!, I'm enjoying every second, Thanks D. V., You are the master!!!!
I want to thank you for all the great books and information you've published over the years, Ive read them over and over again! I still reference them to this day at 52 years old!
,,,,,,,,Agree............I,m 73......got many of his books,,,,,,,will buy any he writes.......
I just came across your channel, one before on ignitions. Both were very informative, and I look forward to watching more of your videos!
Thank you so much David for sharing all your wisdom with us.. most of us are just gearheads and not really engineers or designers, but with the knowledge you are sharing with us we can go faster which is what it's all about...
That was Great, thank you Mr. David Visard. My name is John Sartelle. AKA, 1967 Comet This video makes me feel good and bad. Good for what I have done correct, and bad for what I have ruined in the past. Thanks for all of the great books and videos. I love to learn and videos help in the process.
Years ago in the 1980's I ported the head on my 1978 Suzuki GS1000 when I installed a Weisco 100cc overbore kit following tips I learned from reading Davids article's. It was a beast, with an absolutely smooth pull from idle to 9500 rpm! Thank you David!
I remember when they hit the market!!, They were absolutely baddest thing around!!!
@@michaelhurley3333 That's true, I loved it so much I had trouble going to sleep every night for quite awhile, I just wanted get back up and go riding somewhere! It was two years before another bike took the lead from the GS1000 and if I remember it was the GS1150, that was it Suzuki being on top for several years though.
This is pure gold how can anyone complain he’s a legend keep up the amazing tips please.
You remind me a lot of my grandfather. I always wished I could have had the opportunity to have his help on my projects. These videos are extremely helpful and I respect the huge knowledge and effort you've put into all this.
Bless you for all of the incredible information, you've worked so hard to bring us over the years, David. I know you've worked tirelessly to help all of us build better, faster, and more reliable engines for decades. I appreciate you so much
I have been working on an intern basis for a heavy equipment dealer, and kind of took a deep dive into engines technology. This channel is even better than talking to the old racers, and they're very good in their respective fields. Thanks so much for putting this out there!!! Some of us young'uns need some more instruction on how things work, rather than shipping heads off for CNC porting and not learning a thing.
Please David, continue what you are doing. You are an absolute Gold mine
Don't change a thing David your videos are a wealth of experience and knowledge through testing. Australia.
I've seen a couple of video titles stating not to listen to David Vizard because blah blah and I know that's just to get views, I've followed your articles in Hot Rod or popular Hot Rodding or maybe Super Chevy since back in the 80's but the one i remember most is a photo of a Nova with the info on how to street drive a 13-1 motor. This info is a gold mine.
I watched this one year ago and hit the like button.
I wish i could add another one. Thank you David for your dedication to helping all the gear heads who want to learn. 👍
I really appreciate your input into all areas of an engines restrictions. You are a gem to the performance tuning world.
I can never get enough porting tips from you. Thank you so much!
I can't believe he gives this information out at no cost to the subscriber!
I really like these videos it has given me a lot of really good info on porting head's for A 350 Thank you very much and keep up the good work
Thank you for documenting and sharing your extensive knowledge.
I appreciate it, as I’m sure others do too.
Two kinds of guys in the racing world, loud one and fast ones. I choose the Latter. Thank you PROFESSOR.
DV. You Are Awesome as Always. I Have A Bunch of Your Books. You are My First Source. Thank You So Very Much for all of Your Technology & Wisdom.
David: I love your explanations. They are worth the time to listen. Your principles for commenting on your work and criticizing any details misguiding your viewers is so excellent too. Keep up with the good work.
Back when I was 16, I bought your budget build Chevy small block book, and built a 355cid! You have been an inspiration to me and on the engineering side of making power
Nobody goes into the details of how to make more power with our common auto engines than David Vizard. Thank you for providing this information.
To David Vizard, at the end of your videos, remind folks to click the bell twice (I think) to shown a "Black Bell" as new RUclips software places your new video in the home page cue. But the "Black Bell" forces a notification on the screen if notifications are turned on, yet shows them a new video has been released.
I now live in a world where I understand GM systems as a GM tech, technical seminar instructor, 2 day classroom instructor on contract with Raytheon. Now retired due to medical issues.
I truly enjoy your detailed explanation of cylinder heads, blocks, flows chart results and more. I wish to buy a book(s) or attend a class, but unfortunately it's not in my future but not dis-heartened. Thus learning thru your videos.
I am sorry for you family's loss as having an empty chair during the holidays can hurt!
I am just a humble self-taught repair tech who had an excellent apprenticeship with a knowledgeable fellow who is no longer with us. But, if I may say so, you remind me of my Grandfather, an electrical engineer. I was one of few grandsons that enjoyed his daily garage tutorials. God bless! Have an great holiday season and everyone safe!
DK, ASE Master Tech since 78, retired. Thanks Mr. D. V.
Dean, I think I followed that but humour me here. Could you go through the first part of your post again for me to be sure of what you meant?? thanks
DV
@@DavidVizard David, The way I understand it, is the click subscribe-click once and you get a white bell. It says "Personalized."
But hit the subscribe to select the type of notification and choose "All". So basically it now says "All".
With this selection, a subscriber gets a "Banner" of their choosing. It may to top, left side, right side or whatever setting a cell phone user in General Settings will get.
If a transparent or clear bell, it places that new video in the line of people who responded to you post or comment, shows up in a line in RUclips that is seen under "Home". If you have selected a black bell, you get a banner that shows a new "David Vizard: Explains Intake Porting #2" while a subscriber is in email, on-line at his-her bank, or sending a text message, it shows on the screen! You can click it and it takes right to the video or live feed!"
David, I never owned a cell phone since 2008, when working for Raytheon as I had to turn the phone in. I was contract labor for GM representing ACDelco and tore a rotator cuff and Dr pulled plucked plug on my career. So forced into retirement. I cannot figure out Facebook, Facebook Marketplace, or any other social media. It is not high on my list!
So I don't know, but on RUclips, once they made they change, everyone defaulted to a "Clear Bell" so they have to take action to change it. I would only be guessing but this happened 3 or 4 months ago. So if Analytics for someone posting videos saw a huge drop in viewers, this is why.
I can figure out most of these changes, but thought I would tell you, as I hold you dear to my heart and sharing of experience and learning after decades of doing not just creating theory. I just like to learn! If one is not gaining new knowledge, then they are stagnant or going backwards!
Peace, Love, Joy to you and all from a 60+ guy in Omaha building a "Retro-Mod" 1967 Chevy 10 with an "LS" series iron block engine from my son's wrecked 03 Tahoe engine and 700R4 trans I bench built 3 winters ago, updating all the internals.
Thanks David. I have a huge respect for you and you knowledge. I will tell you, if you had detailed information into the GM "LS" engine world as you do with GEN 1 GM engines, your numbers would climb to 60,000 feet in the atmosphere because this is the new thing since GM introduced it in the Corvette in 1996. 1998 in cars and trucks (I believe) but this is all of the rage for 400,000 per year we're sold in trucks & vans alone. A huge market that I never knew about because I worked at a Buick Dealer. God Bless you sir!
Good advice good detailed description 👍 hit the bell and choose notifications. Helps to get through the algorithm 😊
I can’t begin to tell you how much I appreciate this kind of information, thank you!
Thank you sir for a very informative video , i've known you since the hotrodding magazine days , that's a long time . Your the one lecturer im always looking up .
I Love your videos David. Please keep them coming! I'm hoping to learn through you how to port my own heads.👍👍👍
I appreciate the amount of science here, Not just myths and superstition like 99% of the old guys you meet at car shows or on the internet.
Very grateful for the immeasurably valuable information here on this channel
Thank you
2% wins races!
Thank you for your knowledge Sir
Good on ya David calling out the keyboard worriers. I port two strokes and really enjoying this series. Always looking to better understand fluid dynamics. Frankly I don't understand why you are going to this effort but I certainly appreciate it.
I've biult a few engines with my dad over the years. I have learned so much from him,my grandpa and my uncles. They never got into porting or anything like that until i started to. To me the info you are sharing for free is priceless. I love people like you good sir sharing your knowledge I am the same way love sharing knowledge i have of vehicles.
All your videos are outstanding. Read millions, lol of your articles and books in the last several decades. Well done.
I really enjoy all your free information. This is such an interesting subject. I was a student of much of the Bill Thomas techniques during that period. I wanted to learn about porting. My first attempt was a set of Chevy double hump FI heads for a new 327 that I was building for my 1960 Vet.The project turned out extremely successful. At the time I would look down the port and it was obvious that the bowl and its shape was an extremely important area. That was a long time ago. Thank you for enhancing my understanding of the porting process. Your information is golden.
Great content! Love the steps you layout in all your videos!
I find myself wanting the videos longer. It is like closing a book before the end of a chapter! At least the man who has this hands on experience is sharing.
During a technical service seminar, we where told by Raytheon to hold some information back, leaving them wanting more! Maybe, I am impatient because I don't know and want to learn. I may never be in a position to use it, but I want an area of memory filled with David Vizard has learned, plus the ability to share. DK, Omaha. Retired Tech. (Built race car assemblies, but never raced)
@@deankay4434 yes I'm a backyard motor head and have ruined several sets of heads by following what some other bone head did to their heads on RUclips. It's great to see the right way and the science that proves it! I'm a Millwright with 30 years in the trade, built and raced a little but can't afford to play very much .
Love your videos Mr. Vizard. I watch them over and over, to make sure I retain all this valuable information 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Awesome videos. Love them. Don't change a thing. Thanks again.
Per your opening instructions. I LOVE IT! But I’m not big on fluff and appearances. Facts is what matters and I’m very grateful to have found this channel.
I read Tuning for speed and used for reference about 30 years ago and now I'm watching your videos to see what's changed. I'm in to a 750 Triumph bike head with parallel inlet ports. A lot of what I've done matches near enough, what I've seen here but there are still a few small areas for improvement.
Thanks
Hola amigo gringo, se ve que eres un fregón en la materia, estoy recopilando información para hacer el mejor trabajo casero en un motor 6cilindros en linea de Mercedes Benz 1962 no voy a correr ninguna carrera, solo quiero que sea muy eficiente, pertenecía a mi papá, con tus videos creo que me va quedar muy bien Saludos desde CDMX!!! Y gracias profe.
I like what I see. Keep making these videos and thank you.
Love the pace of you content...smooth and precise.
this helps thks working on my harley heads...can't wait to get cutting...cheers..and thks for sharing ..
I am so glad you decided to make all this. I am loving this content, and I would consider myself a younger individual.
As part of the future generation of hot rodding, I can say that nearly all of my power theory knowledge came from David Vizard. This information is key to a younger person born in an era of diaposable vehicles. Years and years ago I sat down with "how to build max performance small blocks on a budget", and some very limited prior knowledge of engines, and built a reliable, snotty 406 for my daily driver. Once I understood how easy it can be, I got decent at it and quit my dead end job. Now my entire life revolves around assembling engines and doing cool things. I always knew what I wanted to do but it was always out of reach as a kid with no knowledge and no role models. We are so lucky to have this knowledge archived for this and the next generations
Thank you, I watch parts of this many times!!!
I have learned a great deal about head porting from your well detailed videos on RUclips. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us 👍
Thank you David, I appreciate your knowledge and insight on cylinder head porting.
Take care, Ed.
I just purchased one of your porting books the other day and then these videos started popping up on my feed, it's been a great addition to the written material cheers!
Had a local head porter do a set of big block heads for me once. His work slowed the work that I did down.
Anyone paying attention to DV will realize porting heads is not all about flow benches. Max flow number is useless to me and average flow is what I'm after. A flow bench is a tool used to check the productivity of your work. If you suck, then that flow bench will let you know, buy it won't tell you where.
Thanks David, you are the man
I always find your videos fascinating.
I wish I had come to one of your seminars when I was younger and you were tuning the A series engine.
Thank you Sir.
Absolutely priceless. To be shown by a master head porter like David Vizard. And it's free!! You in b
I have several of your books and followed your suggestions. All I can say is you are spot on. From air flow, ignition, carburetor, to camshaft selection, and exhaust. Everything I tried that your books suggest is worthwhile. Thankyou.
The music in your videos is so great really helps me focus
I respect yourself and this channel, looking forward to future content.
Great job explaining things to a average gear head 👍
Very nice. Cudos to Stan Weiss for helping to render the IOP. He's been quite good at revisions, updates, and an occasional epic manual on the Engine Parameter calc of his own CarFor program.
You have some very good information sir
Love your videos Mr. Vizard! I have been reading your books for years and was so excited to find you here!
I got the other in the youtube stream, now looked at both and subscribed. Have seen some other yt clips from you 6 months ago or something like that. Many thanks!
Another great video 😅 and am glad you mentioned the thing about using your own name, I always use my own name but was thinking of changing it to give me anonymity from scammers, cheers David, going to watch some other videos of yours right now 👍
Subscribed since uncle Tony recommended it. Actually, this channel is what I was looking for professional tuning.
Hey DV...loved the part about the importance of bowl shape and "hipping" the transition from the port to the bowl.....thanks for another excellent video!
Very interesting and well explained! And quoting Kevin Cameron just made my day! I love his articles in CW and Cycle Magazine back in the day 😁
I just hope my “bowls” are big enough!!! He he he! Thanks again David bud! You are the best source of porting and power making on RUclips! I’ve watched every single one of your power tech 10 videos!! Love them all!!
Great appreciation that you are sharing your experiences and the scientific verification!
Thanks for your time, the Aussie port had uk base case, 8 cylinders making 535+ hp long track, short 550+
You're my teacher you're a genius and you are God of all engine building and my idol Steve from Annapolis Maryland I learned so much from you thank you I'm not into race cars anymore I can't afford it
I have been a fan since "Theory and practice of cylinder head modification". Worked on my sprite and vw heads! Thanks. It makes sense that both sides of the port are not equal in flow. They can't be. Thanks for the work you do.
This is a brilliant explanation and illustration of how air really travels in heads. Really enjoying the science or how air flows and thus how we can then use this knowledge to improve things.
As a student of Judson Massingill,in the early 2000's,and messing with heads ever since,this content is great..
Love your approach regarding not liking the video!
This is very helpful information for a DIY guy like me! Thanks again
So far you got my attention thank you
Absolutely love these videos! The amount of knowledge is amazing. Feel the same when I watch Gale Banks as well!
Thank you for the detailed explanation, I am going to attempt to port a head for my sons mini bike and see hownit works out. It is a single cylinder motor.
David thankyou so much for sharing your terrific legacy of knowledge with us I can't wait until you get up to discussing 4 valve type heads and your polyquad paper also Individual throttle body manifolds and there designs
Thank you for your video. Information like this makes me think I can rework my afr185s on my 408w instead of looking at the afr 220s. Ima continue watching the rest of the videos
My hat off to you, I`ve been building engines for years and I`ve tried to port heads and found I don`t have the patience or skills to do it, can`t even make a few passes with a cutter without it chattering so I send them to Champion or HVH cause they are nearer me.. If I had access to a bench I might take another shot at it as I`m retired now and only pick and choose which customers I work for. By the way I bought my first book of yours on Holley carbs circa 1988ish and when I read it from cover to cover I knew you weren`t a journalist as I was told, your knowledge and explanations were way beyond journalism.
David, reading some of your works earlier on had a huge impact on my understanding of the small block chevy, and engine theory in general several years ago when I first took interest. Funny enough I'm actually at a weird crossroads where I'm building a motor based on some of the stuff I learned previously, and it's fascinating getting to relearn what you originally taught me.
When it pertains to actually attracting viewership, i can say that having an expert like Dave speaking has it's value, but that having pans, and shots in real life, and possibly demonstrations of some of the adjustments would be huge. Honestly, listening to an expert speak at an expert level from an entry level/intermediate theory position can be somewhat dry, and intimidating, and having someone available to simplify things further, or to actually show some of the work being done would be a huge boon for the page.
Thank you for continuing to share the engineering knowledge you have gained and fostered.
Me making a mental list of what I need to buy after watching this video: a small dyno, a small engine for which I could buy 20 cheap replacement heads so I can practice porting and know how far is too far and what is possible. This gentleman is such a genius, I think they misspelled his last name, it is probably "WIZARD"
Man this is good information I have your book I love that you’re explaining the 5 rules of porting , I have never ported ahead in my life, but I have five sets of heads that I want to port , as I seek understanding of porting
I am thankful and grateful for this channel and much respect to you, David , my hope is one day to snatch the pebble from your hand
I enjoy your work and time giving this information which helps me make better engines and more.
Thanks for your time and knowledge! I race dirt circle track super stock and I have a set of 23 degree Dart Iron Eagle 215 that HVH has cnc’d . As as racer always looking for more power lol I contacted Chad S. About having him rework my hvh heads. So glad to hear you reference him and it just gave me another reason to send them to him! Not sure how much power can be made with his special touch but I’m sure that there will be gains! Again thank you for your time!
U have taught me a great deal DV, ty for sharing
David,
Based on info in your books i have always started at the seat. Working back up the bowl & then out into the chamber. I progressed to doung the seat machining first. This is dangerous & most porters cut the seats after to avoid knicking the faces. But the care is worth it! I found air flow jump starting early.
Im a filipino and am watching today April 6 2024 in boracay,Philippines...we race small single piston engine in a small playwood boat ..thank you for knowledge..🧑🔧🫡🙏
You bring the science to me, great teaching! Thank you from Hemet, CA.
👍😎
Thank you for your engineering knowledge, courtesy, and sharing.
Thank you for including the tribute to Jacque.
Remember St. Jude's #1.
God bless y'all.
YeeeeHaaaaw!!! 😎😎
Great technical information
David is to engines what Moses was to the bible. For those of you who do not know David has been an inspiration for hot rodders writing magazine articles & books since I was old enough to read...in .the 1980's (probably going back to the 60's) . Every teen age boy who cracked a Hot Rod, Car Craft, or Super Chevy magazine would easily read dozens of articles he published every year.
Simply said. Thanks!!!
Back in the late 1980's. Built out a Ford cortina 250 ci crossflow torque monster with Lewis race engines. This guys books were my bible for port flow & velocity & how to combine that with the cam induction & exhaust as a complete package. The thermo dynamics were all optimised to fatten & flatten torque from 1500 to 5.5k Worked a little too well. Ripped the splines off 2 manual boxes and ate a diff. Before a bullet proof drive line was built that could handle its grunt.
But it usually needed 100 more seriously worked cubic inches to beat it on the road.
Taught me I could have my cake and eat it. Power is one hell of a drug!
Thankyou. God bless you.
