I have followed HPA’s work since probably 2015 or earlier and I still say it is the best place to get real information on how all of this stuff works, I always recommend them to anybody I talk to about performance and I always try to catch any of their media. Thank you to Andre and his team 🙏
The bit about carbon deposition on the piston was interesting. It almost seems like he was speaking to it being a physical barrier to the cylinder environment and not just a gauge/indicator of proper combustion.
It's a little frustrating that, despite being directly asked about it twice, he failed to answer what sort of gains have been actually documented from dimpling of the intake ports (if any). We get it - the homogeneity of the air/fuel mixture is of paramount importance and this is where dimpling is likely to show improvement vs increased CFM, but his response did nothing to help settle the debate on whether or not it actually proves to be effective in practice on the dyno/racetrack.
Cos there is none, if there was, every single N/A V8 would have it Multiple top level head porters have dis proved it Head games and 4 piston don’t do it
@@BrewedMotorsports cool, show me a dyno graph of it working, saying something works means FUCK ALL. He always builds relatively low power stuff Once your throwing a decent amount of fuel and especially methanol at an engine, you can golf ball port the intake all you like, your getting a liquid in there.
@bigcncguy I've also never seen anyone who says it works prove it. My little 2 .2l makes 860whp, the 2500cc injectors are at 75% duty, you are going to have liquid going into the cylinder. .. lots of it.
@@bigcncguyre listen to him explain, it’s not about power it’s about fuel efficiency/not letting any fuel/energy get wasted. It relates to running a target lambda leaner than 1 even under full load. When endurance racing good power with fuel conservation is the name of the game.
I love listening the podcast when im commuting, or in the shed. This one was so good and I was so excited when I seen it was 2+hours and what made it even better was that it was someone that has been at the forefront of automotive design. I absolutely love the K engine so i listened very hard and took notes with this one. I do wish the question was asked when the stroke and rod:length ratio was brought up why he chose to stroke the k20 and not destroke the k24? Thank you for another great episode. Keep up the great work
rod length in the K24 block becomes a problem. the increased deck height for the 99mm stroke is why. I kind of went down this hole when I first got my SI. 92mm stroke in the K20 block is the perfect compromise for displacement and revs with the K (IMO only for boosted applications). Sticking to the NA K20 myself since I enjoy a visit to the track more than anything.

It lost the 4 cylinder world record to Carl Brunet (who has held it before) and his GM based platform. We'll see if Carlos Olivo's K24 gets it back again 😎- Taz
I've noticed the engines that are considered great are usually the engines that are mass produced and have a lot of aftermarket support. Never been a fan of timing belts, not many people are even aware of morse chains. Most factory chains are roller link or solid pin silent chain, morse is so much better. Thanks for the podcast, enjoyed it.
Hilux Surf's 5VZ-FE has almost no aftermarket support for the engine. Also, has a timing belt. Granted, it is in the 'Great argument' solely because of reliability. Not the fastest, and runs pig rich, but can you imagine driving a 3,000 pound truck at 85mph, 5500 rpm, for 25 straight years (winters and summers)? I can, because I've done it and currently doing it right now. Never needed so much as a head gasket or fuel pump. That's pretty insane.

He explained in detail the benefits are focused on consistent fueling through avoiding pooling fuel in the port/on the port walls.

A: yes. apparently even a K motor went into the 5's a few weeks back at World Cup Finals. think it was the Pimar (Acura).

@@hpa101 oh that's right, it was the Napierville Dragway Pontiac (Canada eh?).👌
Where in the 0-9000 RPM are the 1st, 2nd and 3rd order in a stock 4G63 crankshaft?
This was a great one!
Really enjoyed this one
Superb podcast very interesting
I'm listening so hard watching the screen lololol 17min in just realized
hahaha that is awesome! Glad you got so in the zone with this one!
Occurred to me about 14 min mark, Spent a few seconds early one trying to "find" what you are referring to.
YES
FD2 JDM engine is supposed to be 11.7:1 yet Terry says (at 1;49 35s) it's 12.5:1 did he just make a mistake or have Honda been sandbagging ?
what I wouldn't do to pick Terry's brain for a while

I think its the best CHEAP 4 cylinder. VW/Mercedes make some great 4 pots which can take 500hp stock but they are still too expensive.
Not a cheap engine during production. Which 2001-2003 VW/Mercedes 4 pots were better?
