That was an intense course in the world of valve springs Ricky. I and I bet many more viewers had no idea how technical it gets, especially in the heady world of high performance engines. Thank you for sharing this with us.

Thanks for that!

Really pleased to see how well you’re doing since leaving us at VWG Ricky. Videos give great insight into the work you’re doing on the super cars but being old school I’d really like some content on the Dodge Charger in the background on the Matt Armstrong video!

Agreed I like the guys knowledge of engines and being humble with it, but you can keep the engines and cars they reside in (not a lover of modern supercars) but then I'm old school and also like the Yank V8 stuff inc the Mopar

Just started watching your content and it’s unreal! Really good info. Keep it coming! Great to see you’re sharing the info and not keeping it to yourself.

Loving these vids. Fantastic to watch and brilliantly informative. Even I can understand the theory. Thanks guys.

Great video! Would love to see a cylinder and port pressure tech video.

Loving the info and detailed information... .Keep more coming... Wanna see some tuning information videosnon how you started, how you tune etc etc

simple terms and understanding. Another great informative video. thanks

Thank you!

Great vids, love the tech stuff ! I've just recently rebuilt my engine (pistons/rods/cams/valves/springs etc), and doing the valve to piston with VVT took some time! Hopefully I got it right but that would also be cool to see how you guys do it too :) And any of the tuning work too, whether N/A or FI.

These videos are awesome 👌🏻

Brilliant videos - keep them coming :-)

Nice channel and very informative with lots of high tech stuf. I would very much like to see a video about gearboxes. Thanks so much. Cheers! Mike from The Netherlands

great video!

Enjoying your videos, appreciate your main work concentrates on four wheel vehicles but some motorcycle content some time would also be great if possible. Awesome work and very interesting details gents, thanks and best wishes.

Thanks Ian! I was thinking of doing something on my race bike. BMW S1000RR.

Do a complete engine build and what type or grade are the alloys used in various parts,especially moving parts which are coated with anti friction coating and hi temp coatings and also how much real balancing is done when building a V8 or V10 lambo engine and which parts are balanced and where the material is removed to make sure each moving part is perfectly as can get in weight and moving balanced etc.:) Love a upload about that?

Great videos, arrived here via Jayemm and Guy Martin videos. I’m interested in what sort of modelling and simulation you do as part of your development work. Don’t expect its anything like what the big players might be doing, but is there much beyond simple first principals / spreadsheet type analysis (as per spring preload in this vid)? I’m involved in mechanical analysis in a different field using packages like simulink and from the few videos I’ve watched so far you could get a lot of value from it (m&s). Possible video topic anyway 👍🏻

Also how much extra work is done compared to factory engines and what aftermarket improved parts can you buy, so that the engine and running gear will last a lot longer, even if your racing the cvar on weekends etc. :)

The stock springs have Marks on them and, I would like to know which one is for intake or exhaust.also you said the valve springs are identical that means the marks on the spring don't matter in I swapped it by mistake?

Is there a mark or way to separate intake or exhaust valve springs ,

Combustion pressure sensor? How does it work? Is that some modified spark plug with transducer?

Exactly that sir!

ever had a spring fly off out the machine/measuring device?

@REPerformanceUK

No, that machine is super stable so the spring can’t twist.

Cheap, fast, and reliability; reliability is the hardest one.

Exactly!

Why dont you show and calculate the needed spring strenght for this setup so it wont loose valve control but is not too hard to increase wear of the parts.

We will in future videos but have to start somewhere. If I said everything I wanted it would be a 4 hr video lol

Any reason you use pounds?

@REPerformanceUK

My measuring gauge is in pounds and the companies we work with making our springs work in pounds….so just easier really.

I’d love a video on meth injection and injectors 👌🏻

17:40 🤦🏻‍♂️rookie error, check list before recording (phones to silent or off) 😆

Also I got one more question. In one of your videos you mentioned: kzread.info/dash/bejne/goWFw5qYkrGvfrA.html Were the springs that lost 30% of their pressure taken out of twin turbo or out of stock Lambo engine?

"Thirty Free"

Why not just match springs. Test them and use only the springs that have consistent forces at the given compression. Why bother with shimming to match spring weights?

@REPerformanceUK

We don’t shim to match spring weights, we do that to increase pressure across the board. We do use matched springs.

I would like a job please.
