Time was when a valve job was done with some valve-grinding compound and a vacuum cup on a stick. But no more. Today's high performance engines require the same machining precision in the valves that ...

Modern engines are packed with technology, yet the core hardware still follows a simple logic: air and fuel go in, power comes out, and heat must be controlled. When I understand the main components ...

While the engineering community continues to explore the benefits of electric and hybrid vehicles—i.e., the environmental and renewable energy factors—the automotive market is still dependent on ...

Your engine is composed of many moving parts and pieces. In order to move through the four stages of internal combustion, all of these bits and bobs are quite necessary. Some engines, however, take ...

Modern internal combustion engines — including those that run on diesel fuel — require a lot of special parts and systems to prevent dumping excess emissions into the atmosphere. Not only are those ...

A car engine is a piece of heavy machinery, and it isn’t surprising for it to make all kinds of sounds. The rotating shafts, the moving pistons and valves, the combustion process, and other engine ...

Cut valvetrain weight and scream past redline. PBM's titanium valves for Chevy and Ford heads stabilize high-revving race ...
