    Adhering to your principles, I built a Chevrolet 250 six cylinder that performed well beyond my expectations. That engine made so much torque throughout the entire rev range, it left me shaking my head in disbelief. It would absolutely destroy the 295 rear tires. It made a very difficult customer (putting it nicely) a very happy man. Thank you for sharing your priceless knowledge.

    David your in-depth study of all aspects of gas flow through engines is brilliant to say the least! Never have I seen such attention to detail explained to this degree, before.
    Watching your videos has given me a better understanding of harmonic imbalances, gas flow characteristics, and how to put into practice, these great lessons you give!
    Thank you for your time!

    I'm only three minutes into the video and this popped into my head, so forgive me if it's covered later.
    That spring weight only tells half the story, literally. The bottom half of the spring doesn't move much (distance or velocity, bugger all energy/inertia), but makes a large portion of the weight. Were you to support one end of the spring with a string and just weigh the small end plus retainer, the weight difference would be even more dramatic, and that's the bit that moves the furthest

    • @rcamacho364
      @rcamacho364 3 года назад

      Yes. Even then the top half, moving the most, on the beehive looks to have even less than half the mass of the top of the outer dual spring. Less mass=faster acceleration with the same energy exerted to open the valve.

    That was a good refresher talk. The really surprising thing though, it took motorsports 100 years to catch up with piston engine aircraft. When Suzuki came out with SACS engine in 1985 it was 'innovative' but oil jets directed at bottom of piston crowns was already 65~70 years old. Today it's pretty ubiquitous on many engines (even Harley Davidson for more than 10 years IIRC?)

    Great video David, I've been to numerous seminars of yours at the PRI show. great stuff.
    I have two suggestions. First, the tip on the dial indicator on your valve spring tester is loose. that will ruin your life on accurately measuring your springs.Second, the easiest way to set up valve spring tester height,with a multiple spring combination is to just use the comp spring measuring tool,WITH the retainer on top of it, to set up your height.then there is no math involved ,or guessing. that will also allow the inner spring to be measured accurately Hope that helps !

    Can you do one on spring tip prep? Such as that offered by PSI and carried out to a further degree in organizions such as TRD.
    Also perhaps address cryo benefits.

    Did you experiment with shot peening the competition springs to impart compressive forces? Maybe they are all manufactured that way. I know a lot of research went into finding the correct sized steel shot media for commercial springs.
    Great vid.

  • @gothicpagan.666

  • @MsKatjie

    Great stuff. Especially the clear rocker cover, hence the motion and " follow through"; of the spring. Was that 25 thou Mr. Vizard?Forgive the question but just double checking!

  • @TheEZGZ
    @TheEZGZ 3 года назад

    Question Sir. I am told that going from a helical cut camshaft gear to a straight cut timing gear set produces Harmonics that will drastically shorten the life or the valve trane. Is this true and will the beehive spring help? I'm more interested in Horsepower combined with longevity. Thank you for your time and sharing your knowledge.

  • @everydaypractical9975
    @everydaypractical9975 3 года назад +1

    David I was wondering would it be plausible to spec a half a set of valve springs for the intake and 1/2 a set for the exhaust with different spring rates to fine-tune the difference in lift of the two like for instance if you have a 520 lift on the intake and a 560 lift on the exhaust would it be worth it for the extra .040 lift kind of like when Chevrolet uses a 1.6 ratio rocker on an intake in a 1.7 on the exhaust

  • @peterjones6945
    @peterjones6945 5 лет назад

    That's the first time I've seen a taper / conical spring tested. interesting. Looks like it maxed out the spring tester? How much accelerated wear are you going to get though on a street motor? Would it be better to use them with a full roller valve gear? (followers and rockers)

    • @hotrodray6802

    @mikecondoluci53 5 лет назад

    HI DAVID ANOTHER GREAT VIDEO THANK YOU, WOULD THESE SPRINGS BENEFIT A STROKER ENGINE THAT WILL ONLY TURN 6800 RPM? OR WOULD I BE BETTER WITH THE SPRINGS YOU RECOMEND IN YOUR HOW TO BUILD HORSE POWER ON A BUDGET BOOK FROM LUNATI, THANKS AGAIN

    • @sc358.
      @sc358. 5 лет назад +3

      Yes they can benefit. Call up PSI (preferably) or PAC and they will hook you up for your application.
      I run beehive in my hobby stock and only turn 6,000.
      You will find on a spintron that losses of control of the valve motion occurs in different rpm ranges not only high rpm. Therefore having a valvetrain that works together as a system is important for durability as well as power even if not revving to ultra high rpm.

  • @ironguts1097

  • @magnusdanielsson2749
    @magnusdanielsson2749 3 года назад

    Commonly its recommended that springs has 0.06” left until coil bind. Am I understanding it right that behive and conical springs can(should) be used with only 0.025” margin?

    I was blind but now I see. Honestly this information is isolating until you start winning races with your builds. I'll just be telling the machinist specs and that's it. If you constantly engage in conversation about components it's a nuisance. Better to nod and smile.
