    Drill in reverse, the bushing likely won't come out. In reverse, the bit will likely score up the inside, but that's not too big a deal. In forward, the drill bit will likely cause deeper scratches, water will get in with capillary action and cause rusting over a Long period of time. Good luck pushing the new bushing in with the drill. Little gain, imo.

    Back in the 80s, a friend of mine did the head work for a well known NASCAR team. He said after extensive flow bench testing, they determined there was better atomization of the intake charge when the intake ports were finished with a 120 grit sandpaper roll and the exhaust ports were finished to a mirror finish to minimize carbon build up.

    The dimpled inlet runner is done on wet intakes to aid atomisation, a polished runner can encourage fuel drop out on the runner wall. In a dry runner smooth but not polished approx cross cut with 120grit is best as it allows undisturbed flow while the flat surface reduces flow resistance caused by eddy currents at the boundary.

    Agreed. You see dimpling on some high performance cars' underbelly panels. They wouldn't bother if the effect were unmeasurable. The dimpling also increases the internal volume of the intake runner, which may or may not be beneficial. A good calibrated flow bench might give you some data, but you'd really have to do the test on an engine dynamometer to prove the hypothesis. In any case, I doubt it's really worth the effort if you were trying to get significant gains.

  • @jameslmorehead

    @jameslmorehead

    Жыл бұрын

    I was thinking the same thing. Dimpling breaks up laminar flow, which sticks to the smooth surface, creating a low pressure film. This low pressure film slows the air flow for a distance away from the surface, depending on air speed. The dimples create little vortices, with the direction of rotation going in the same direction as the air flow. This stops the laminar flow and the associated air flow reduction. Think of it as fluid ball bearings. The dimple diameters and depths need to be calculated based on pressure and flow rate so their effect does not go into the desired airflow area. Creating random dimples may or may not help performance. Automotive maufacturers don't do this as it's very time consuming to machine, thus increasing the part cost.

    The wrench in the screwdriver may not seem new to most at all. I’m glad you guys explained how the screwdriver handle is actually intentionally designed for box, open end and even pliers or channel locks. What that guy was actually showing is that he can now apply tremendous downward force into the head for less chance of tooling. It alleviates your arms focus on downward AND twisting force. You now divide the two perpendicular forces between two different more focused/balanced levers. and I have used the technique all the time even on the smallest corroded appliances or even in framing construction and carpentry. It’s basically the same as resting your chest or shoulder right against the impact or screw gun like it’s a firearm.

    Tension bands are the best imo. I replaced the original ones on my car when I changed the 32 year old coolant pipes for brand new reinforced ones (thicker). Used the braces with the bolt and guess what? One snapped mid trip and lost all my coolant in a rainy Christmas night, 30 miles from home in the middle of the mountains. Called my father that brought tools and materials. Had to dissemble the battery tray to get to that pipe and seal it, 30 mins in the pouring rain. Got lucky though because the 32 year old ECM warned with Check Engine light. Otherwise, the engine would be fried. Got new tension bands adequate to the size of the new pipes, took out all the braces and never lost a drop ever since. Suzuki knows best.

Take the aerator off the downstream faucet, turn on the water supply, and the bread plug vanishes down the drain.

    That power balance test. Aircraft (ones with internal combustion engines at least) use a similar technique, though they are designed to, to test the magnetos. While you're doing your ground tests prior to a flight, you have both sets of magnetos running. The ignition actually has a way to shut off one set, or the other. You sit at idol with both on. You switch to one on, switch to both on, switch to the other on, back to both on. This tells you how each set is performing. You do notice a slight power loss when running on one, but it tells you if they are performing nominally, or if one is doing bubkis. If you switch to your rights and you get knocking and a rough engine, you know somethings wrong. If you're flying and you get knocking and a rough engine on power input during runup, your piston sleeve has disintegrated on the ground at FIN.

    The "golfball" dimpling decreases the resistance the golfball requires to travel through the air by providing a small pocket of more still air surrounding and clinging to the ball that allows it to slip through air more easily. If you think of a golfball sized obstruction in a pipe, the mass flow around the ball would actually be decreased by the dimples but the force exerted on the ball is lower... so on your intake this would actually lower flow rate.

    As for the dumplings on the intake. Yes it provides extra turbulence so the air fuel mixes better, but it also increases air velocity. Because yeah it's not a golf ball, but physics are physics. Liquids move across a thin layer of itself and it actually reduces friction because the dimples create that microscopic layer of turbulent air. The rest of the air flow isn't even contacting the metal anymore. You can buy pistons with this, and I've seen it on alot of diesels. You need to RnD it to get a more effective pattern, (it doesn't have to look exactly like a goofball pattern) the people who make pistons have a patented design, but I imagine a couple hours of fluid dynamics study will help you figure out what patterns have what effect.

    Heya guys, so @9:18 , when he is dimpling the metal, that is a process to increase atomization of the oxygen and fuel. its more common to see them in the valve ports as well as the entire upper intake. Through micrometering, its shown that the increased breakup of the molecules helps with performance. There are slight out-weighs through Atomization>Surface area. But through some instances, it performs better. There is a picture on the internet somewhere talking about why some Top-Fuel drag teams cover their work areas and engines with towels, so the competition can't see the ports or intakes. the photo was of a candid shot peeking under a towel and seeing the entire inside if the top half completely covered in those dimples, but much more intricate.

    The second one is solved by a tool called an "Impact Screwdriver". You hit the butt of the handle with a hammer and it converts the impact into twisting the shank of the driver. That way you fully seat the bit into the screw so you don't round out the head trying to get it out.

    At 13:15 Those wires were also way to thin to handle that current that was running through them, and would be even if they were connected in the right polarity. That's why you should use wires that are capable of handle 350-400 Amps (2 AWG or 35 mm²) on cars to be on the safe side, as a flat battery will draw a huge amount of current from the other car, and even more when you try to start the dead car. When cables are going hot, they starts to turn into a resistor that will consume power rather than deliver power. So the the dead car is probably fine as those jumpstart wires are too weak to give enough power to destroy it.

    I think the overall takeaway from these videos is that TikTok and other social media can be a really good way to share car knowledge, but it's only really useful as a source if you *already know what you're doing* well enough to tell which advice to throw away. I think everyone in this video learned something new, but it was always a new application of knowledge they already had, and they knew what was trash because it was obvious from their experience.

    the vice grips on the break line-- I purchased a mustang and was going to fix it for a 16 yr old (6cyl car) so i went through the cooling system, fuel system and when I got to the breaks, it didnt even have a caliper on the passenger side so i got everything I needed to everything all the wat around and couldnt get any fluid to the driver side back wheel, so I traced it from front to back and decided to replace the line by the back wheel because I couldnt get any air through it even, tried to run a wire through it and what ever it was to hard to to clear with a wire, so i tried to heat it up thinking i was replacing it anyway, but to my surprise it had been filled with what I assume was soldering wire or lead, what ever it was it dripped out after heating it up, another tire burner that didnt have the power to so otherwise

    If I'm not mistaken, dimpling an intake pipe like that one clip is actually better than a smooth flat surface. The dimples create air pockets/vortex's and those air pockets/vortex's act as a cushion for the air and increase velocity of the air flowing through the pipe. Now, this would almost be negligible on a "low horsepower" car (I'd guess below 1000hp) but would be beneficial on high performance car (over 1000hp) where every little thing matters. I remember watching a video where some engineers were talking about the amount of work and effort that went into a 2000hp (i think) GTR and how they got to a point where the smallest changes would net them a few hp as they hit the limits of the turbos and engine. I'd imagine they would have done this to their heads as there is some scientific backing behind a dimpled pipe leading to higher air velocity. Feel free to let me know if I'm wrong but I'm pretty sure I'm right.

    Dimpling works on a golf ball by inducing turbulent flow, which follows the curve of the ball better which reduces pressure drag. This increases skin friction, but overall drag is lower. In pipe flow dimples would increase the size of the boundry layer, reducing the effective diameter of the pipe and reducing air flow.

    On the subject of that power-balance test, in piston-engined aircraft, we do essentially this test before every flight (although checking for the operation of the magnetos and the spark-plugs rather than individual cylinders) and we have switches in the cockpit to accomplish it. Flicking the switch grounds out the P-lead. Just as the good lady says, we are looking for a drop in revs (and to check that the engine continues to run smoothly).

    My understanding of the dimples in the air intake is that it's a carbureted engine and the turbulence helps with mixing the air/fuel venturi. I know that on carbureted low cc go-kart engines they will roughly sand the intake side of the head to help with the venturi mixture, but I don't know if the dimple strategy does the same thing or if that's even what they are trying to do.

    @@ColonelSandersLite Yeah modelling clay works too. I like the tack because unless you leave it on for a few minutes it doesn't really stick at all, it just isn't strong enough. I've had the same 0.5 " ball in my toolbox for about 15 years. It never really dries out, when it is left for a while it gets a bit more solid but you knead it for a minute or so and it goes back to pliable. If it gets dirty you just knead it for a while and the dirt goes onto your hands and you just wash your hands. Also have another ball next to my solder station to gently hold stuff in place too small or delicate for a vise/clamp - like I said loads of diy uses lol

    the way dimples work on a golf ball is because of goofiness related to the thickness of the boundary layer of flow, and only work because they prevent the flow from separating from the surface behind the ball as early, which shrinks the eddy behind the ball as it flies, which reduces drag. Whatever that pipe is, flow separation is not a concern, since the curve is not significant enough. the dimples here would reduce flow by unnecessarily adding turbulence.
