Making big power with today's high-performance parts is relatively easy. Just go online, choose the parts that match your performance target, andwait for the goodies to arrive. But after those extra ...

Indirect engine cooling system doesn’t allow air to directly contact with the surface of engine. It indirectly cools down the engine and its components with the help of a coolant circulating in ...

The temperature developed within the cylinder of engine during the combustion of fuel is very high (about 2000 to 2500° C). A large amount of heat is absorbed by cylinder walls and other components, ...

The "hot" in hot rod has meaning. High-performance engines make power through heat. Heat is as much a part of the performance equation as fuel, air and spark. Heat expands air and provides an optimum ...

Along with power, internal combustion engines make heat. They actually create so much heat that if it isn’t adequately channeled away, it can potentially damage an engine beyond repair. To solve the ...

Internal combustion engines — including those that run on diesel fuel — rely on various systems, accessories, and electronics to keep the pistons moving and your wheels turning. Of those systems and ...

Even if you don't know (or care) what a Btu is, you've probably seen a cooling system react violently once in your life. Usually taken for granted until it screws up, the cooling systems in our cars ...

The demands on modern engine-cooling systems are complex. Although increased performance, reduced fuel consumption, longer durability and cleaner emissions may appear to be at odds with each other, ...
