THE SOLID MOUNTS THING WAS ABOUT HAVING READ THIS THREAD I WAS REMINDED OF A THREAD FROM THE CAL LOOK FORUM WHEN THAT GOT STARTED...

THE THREAD STARTED SOMETHING LIKE ... "WHAT ARE SOLID MOUNTS LIKE ON THE STREET?"

YOU REPLIED SOMETHING LIKE...

"WHAT? I CAN'T HEAR YOU?"

I DON'T THINK IT WAS THE BEST SET UP FOR A DATE IN A STREET CAR? I CAN'T REMEMBER HOW IT WENT EXACTLY BUT IT STILL MAKES ME EVEN LAUGH NOW. WAS ONE OF THE FUNNIEST VW THREADS I REMEMBER (IF ONLY IN PART!)...

ALL THE BEST TO YOU.   8)

when I was a teenage punk kid, my dream was to work for your dad, Doug. I think back what I might have learned working @ 1725... you want to talk "volumes"? Anyway, laying awake in bed @ 2:45am... reading, reading, reading then taking all and screwing it into action, I guess something had to stick after 24 years, huh?
Thanks for your posts, Doug and your self reflection.

I still need to call you back!  ;D

thanks Doug. We gotta talk sometime, moving lobe peaks around, the "hidden meaning" behind some of the VZ grinds (how funny would it be to see that one of the blasphemous VZ cams plots the valve the same as one of the "cool guy" cams that everybody says is ok to use).
Small cyl cc, smallish, whistiling ports (think organ in a church) and lots of cam timing, Vs big cyl lungs, cavernous ports and stumpy cams. The age old debate... if guys look into what some race motors out of factories did (for more than 11-12-13 sec), we'd move forward.
And the beer-fueled hours in jr college trig, figuring out where piston was at opening/closing, and taking swept volume from there.... there's your dynamic CR. Good ol' TI calculators!
talk soon,
Jim

HELLO,DOUG

   You posted high speed air bleeds pictures and info, 7 hp down low and 12 up high --thats great!!

   Was wondering was that w/ the rifel drilled venturies also or just the high speed bleeds?

   If w/ the both what is the hp gains w/ just the bleeds and what apx. hp gains w/ the rifel drilled venturies?

   Can I get a set of venturies?

  I run 50mm venturies in my 58s but was wanting to up them to 52mm. If I were to put rifel drilled what size should I run?

  Are they drilled at a taper/angel or straight down?

  I am very interested due to the fact that my egts are up to 200 degrees off per cylinder!! And I was wanting to step up my venturi also.

  Thanks for your post very nice work!

Night time is the right time for thinking, someday I will tell ya about the night in my room, the album and the revelation when it comes to rocker geometry. The light bulb clicked on brightly that night. Cough.
We cut a 94mm cylinder too, one night, to make a "track" to see on degree wheel, there the slug was @ 50% stroke, supposedly the place of max velocity. So where does full lift belong to have 100% (+) VE and highest bmep? At that point? Still trying to figure that one out. Dema Elgin taught me more in a few nights than I've picked up in the time brackets around those nights.

when you turn up the revs, you're closing the time the lungs of the motor have to take a big deep breath. But, the airspeed into the cylinder goes up (to a point) too? I guess for ultimate in high rpm filling, you want that In valve to close as late as possible. I think of it like, just because you turn the garden hose tap off, you still got that column of water in that 15' hose going somewhere (unless you have a trigger sprayer on the other end, in the closed position). here @ sea level we're all under pressure, literally. Can't see it, feel it, smell it, but it's there, and good thing or the blood would boil in our veins.
Makes hp too, if we harness it. (I'm not a turbo VW guy. )
What's facinating, is that these modern engines with VVT or Variocam or whatever acronym each manufacturer chooses to use, they ALSO retard cam timing for a smooth IDLE. Less cyl pressure? Alfa was doing it way back in the early 1980's. Maybe they were rusting but...
Fun to think about this stuff while you ride a big inner tube down a CA river... you can see it for yourself, what's going on in between the air horn and the comb chamber.
Sometimes I wonder what my car would do if I backed up my cam back to 108ATDC, from the 104ATDC the intake f.l. is at now. Maybe become a wet dish rag.
Imagine a cyl cc of 332ccm and a intake profile of IO 104 BTDC and IC 104 ABDC.... it's for real.

the 104/104 cam isn't mine... it's a factory Porsche cam profile for 2.0L six that did 220hp/8200 for hours on end (906, 911R).
My cam is similar to an Engle "135"  ;D. Lots of hand wringing and sleepless nights deciding, but Mario over @ Pauter turned me on to the stick in my car. Your bro "finished" the heads that are on my car (they were a few years in the making on my workbench up north, then ditched the project when I moved to Southern Calif, the guy that ended up w/ them sent to Clyde to finish up). More than e.t.'s I built this one for therapy. Therapy for me isn't a floorjack and wrenches strewn about, oil lines bleeding all over my garage.
If I were a rich man, I'd own (and drive) one of the Italian-engineered jewels I'm always clamoring on and on about... A Miura S would probably do it. But I'm never gonna have that kind of dough in my back pocket, so I decided to "use what I have" and give it a soul and character as close to what I see in some 12-cyl exotica as I can, which is probably the sign of a real misfit in the VW world. I did this motor to "pretend", giving similar characteristics (I hope) in power delivery (not amount, of course), sound, etc. I can get out on one of these Ventura County backroads and "pretend", as silly as it sounds, it's kept me interested in my car, a good thing. I can sit bored @ work, in a cube, for 8+ hr, looking forward to my 25 min drive home thru the canyon, Webers howling, power on oversteer, matched revs on the downshifts, and then roll it in the garage, pat in on the roof and do it again the next day. It works.

maybe my thinking is in error, but this is the way I look at it.....
let's say you have an elevator that has a max capacity of 1500lb, has an entry of 54 sq ft, and stops for a duration, with doors open for 2 min, so people can get in. No problem, right? You can get your 1500lb of people in, doors shut and off they go, the elevator is being used to its full capacity (never mind folks waiting on other floors for this analogy).
But what if the elevator sat for only 3 sec with doors open. It stops at the floor, doors slam open, closed and takes off. Think you're going to fill it with 1500lb of people?  ;D Maybe guys that set records in the 50 yard...  What if elevator stops, opens and closes doors in .5 sec?
I know, you're thinking air is compressible (so are people, to an extent).
But the cylinder, can go beyond its "1500lb capacity", right? That over 100% VE thing. I think the best motors are the (naturally asp) ones that show a pressure over 1atm in the cylinder somewhere before the piston gets to BDC and starts its trip north on the compression stroke. But at what rpm? I bet the point (degree wheel) where that cyl pressure nudges over 1atm moves all over the scale, dependent on rpm. We're talking a constant of full throttle here.
then we can drag rod ratio into play. I like to tell guys, a piston sitting still isn't doing its job (making vacuum or compressing air/fuel), and the more the piston is in movement, the more the carbs and heads "feel" the pull of the motor, maybe fooling them into "thinking" they're on a bigger motor. (if you take stock length rod, and hang it on an 82 crank instead of 69, with same bore... do the heads and carbs get a stronger signal? , above and beyond just the increase in cyl volume 8))
if you can get through the incredibly dry text, the book by Philip H Smith (Scientific Design of Exhaust and Intake Systems) is dated, but informative on this stuff.
At that point, before BDC, where we want the cyl to be big and full and fat (above 1atm)... what role does "venturi" effect of valve throat and closing int valve (low lift) play?

I have to say I enjoy reading this thread everyday since it makes me use my brain and think about things like volumetric efficiency related to cam timing-thanks Doug and Jim.

Hey Doug, did you mention on the last page that you have a cam grind with IO and IC similar to a K8 and EO and EC similar to a K10 or did I miss interpret that? If this is true, what made you decide on this custom grind? 

I understand you are trying to reach greater then 100% VE, NA, and to try to do this you are changine when a valve opens/closes as well as using the scavanging effect of the exhaust to force more air and fuel into the cylinder.  I think I am getting lost looking at the cam card numbers on the K8 and K10-either that or the cold medicine is kicking in!!!

Anyway looking forward to more discussions tomorrow.

k8   IO 24 IC 54 EO 60 EC 18
k10 IO 32 IC 56 EO 66 EC 22

k8/k10 IO 24 IC 54 EO 66 EC 22

what do you mean Doug,
depending on the choises made, the increase in power in the top end doesnt make up for the decrease of power in the low end?
so net power is lower?
like taking a cam with too much duration and then also retarding it?

I like setting the cams forward like that, to yes, 104 ATDC. Been setting them all up that way, with more duration than "the cool crowd" seems to go for.
I think the point of the long exhaust open door is "blowdown"... if I remember right, I learned that was # 1 "thing" in the hierarchy of a cam's job. This is going way back though...  ::)
I like the idea of the longer exhaust time, though I've never run one myself, let the waste product do some more work than "make noise", sure, why not increase the pull the heads and carbs see. I'm always up for more signal, but gotta be from bottom to top (no loss on top, or why bother with longer duration, 48's...etc)
For me to "get" why the advance in the cam's "job" works, I have to draw cartoons of what's taking place. easiest way to understand it.
Doug, did you ever read my bit about "plenum-ed" 48IDA manifolds? For race stuff. To make a long story short, which I can w/ you, because I know you'll get it... 1. join the two intake runners somewhere north of intake flange, but south of butterfiles (imagine a Skat Trak that, as it Y's up, joins into a common plenum, under BOTH butterflies)2. at high revs, on intake stroke ONE cylinder, while IO, can pull through TWO butterflies, vents, jet stacks...etc.
Yeah i know, what happens to low speed running? I have no answer here... I only looked at it from high revs, that big fat cylinder is basically seeing the sky as air/fuel source.
what do you think about that? Maybe you guys have fooled w/ it? I remember seeing a motor in the back shop one day your Mom was walking us around, and there was a drag motor on the floor with a DCNF per cylinder ... you?

Thanks for the fun,
Jim

It would be neat to have a set with a easy way of blocking the plenum, So on the dyno it could be back to backed. Also plenum volume would be important I bet.

Doug, The more I read the more stupid I feel ! This stuff is very interesting. For somebody as simple as me, What or where can A guy like me start reading and get educated a little more on this stuff. I relise it is a life time of doing it and haveing the passion. But better now that later learning for me. I like to make stuff and sometimes you have to tell your tools what to do, I have been lucky and sometime found some pre educated tools and they just end up doing the work. But moveing into areas not traveled it makes me a little nervous and I do not make a move and stay stagnet if you know what I mean. I want to build a engine for one of my cars and have the peices but kinda scared to go farther.

I'm kinda working on something on the side, that guys can refer to on "how stuff works"... we'll see how it turns out. I think a lot of figuring this stuff out is half science and half having in it your blood and half just trying stuff. Talking car stuff is what gives me a total rush, makes me forget the boring parts of life etc. Some guys like to solo on a Stratocaster, I like driving and talking cars. A lot. Don't feel stupid, dude, you have talents and tricks beyond comprehension (your whole deal with welding header pipes with the hose clamp.... genius if you ask me). Obviously, Doug is talented and gifted as well, just read the stuff he creates and comes up with. Maybe to some a little eccentric (so?) but no matter, if it's what "gives him wings" then fly. I thought about this "plenum" thing one night after a bottle of chianti and listening to tunes and going into "think mode" and I wish I had a dyno and could weld and so on... too cool to see it's been done. I just wonder if it worked?
I bet your area is looking nice up there this weekend.  8)

I have built stuff and it has ran and some for quite some time, But not at the caliber you guys are doing. Mine ran from luck, more than anything. I am in a place where I have been messing with these cars for over 30 years and I want to start learning more about what makes them run. Than makeing them shiney, If you know what I mean!

Danny, I could use your opinion buddy..
I have some extra '67 reverse lights, the shells are so so, but the frames and lenses are sweet. I think I am going to make courtesy interior lights out of them.... either in lower rear corner of door panels or one centered up inbetween on front kick panel. I mocked it up and it looks classy.

Great Idea, I think somewhere under dash,So if you needed to read or look at something while driveing. Plus its made from OEM parts. I try never to make anything you can buy. One thing does the bulb holder separate from houseing?  If I remember VW thing has a neat little interior light also.

A quick question. This has been puzzleing me. On exaust stuff in the vw industry. If this even matters, But I have noticed that guys spend all this time on porting and polishing heads, Then bolt on a shitty fitted mig welded mess they call exaust. The collectors got wire and stuff sticking through in the flow of the tubes. Ive been lucky enough to seen some of the stuff my friend lance has done for the IRL,CART,F1 and I am not compareing But the shit was very nice. He was probably the one that brought inconel to the race car industry, Makes burns stuff look like a first time welder. If anybodys listening?

                         "ALWAYS KNOW"   ONE SIDE IS "UP"  &  ONE SIDE IS "DOWN"  ON THE BUMPSTICK !!!   "104 IN".... IS "OPPOSITE OUT" !!!     

                                                                                            GET IT ???

                                                                                           LOVE   DOUG

                                                                                           LIKE 112 OUT!!!


                                  YES "4" 42'S ON "ONE ENGINE" IS  "ME"  !!!   TALK MORE ON PLENUMNS !!!   GOTTA GO  SEE "JOE" !!!

right... if we take a 108/108 cam, and shove it forward 4 deg, then we have a 104/112...or more specifically, 104ATDC and 112ABDC, unless... you had the exhausts ground 4 deg behind. Do guys do that? I haven't looked into the exh side of things as much as the intake, admittedly. What about different profiles for each corner of motor, dependent on your constraints when it comes to header (or lack of) design?
Nobody said every egg in the dozen had to match.

DG,
Exactly! It takes a long time to go in and clean that mess up before coating/painting! Then again, not many have metal & fab skills GabFab possesses ... wish I could.
If you taught a class, I'd enroll.
Love everytime you post some new pics of progress on BR's ride ... I should send you my '67 ... another project ...

OOJim,
My only question is how'd you come to 104? Makes sense, just would like to know how you got to that particular number  (trial & error?)... especially if you use that setting for different cams ... just very curious. Think I'll try it!
Also, the plenum manifold would be interesting to try on smaller carbs, like 40s. Possible they'd still meter low, but you'd also have both to pull on up high ... ??? Prolly depends on how much plenum you allow too ... and they'd need to be the same on each side ... starting to get complicated.
Too ... working on a small chamber street engine ... seem to remember you like that kind. Should get interesting when the chips start flyin off the flycutter!

DB,
Sorry to be late to comeaknockin on your door ;)
Diggin your stuff here ... you're an artist (have some of your art!) and a poet.
Valvetrain events are the things I'd really like to get to know much better ... I get the basics and understand the potential effects/affects ... just wanna know where it comes from. Where does the magic happen & why? I admire anyone that knows how to make the magic happen. I'd like to think I've come close a few times ... hmmm ... you've got me thinkin" I need to put together a 'trial' engine to try and get a better view of THE BIG PICTURE.
I guess I can't quite make out the trees in the forest ... YET!
Everytime you think you know, turn the page and there's another lesson to learn.

Thanks for the motivation ... ALL of You!

Now, I've got some work to learn ;)




Hi Tom, this has to be one of the most motivational posts round these parts in a while at least for me... it's a blast discussing this stuff.
I came upon 104 from a few reasons....  like I had posted somewhere up above, I was looking for point where on intake stroke (or exh, really, but...) where piston is at max velocity. Somewhere between (this was over 10 years ago now) the cut 94mm cylinder (cut in half longwise, like splitting a banana), a degree wheel, my Bosch handbook and screwing around with trig, it seemed that "104" was the magic number... it isn't, but ... the other reasons supported this, sort of, meaning a number of "engine guys" I talked to about cam timing, always suggested "104" (but they said "to make this cam run, advance it 4 deg"). One motor, believe it or not, I set up @ 102, but it was a 280@ .050 deal. Made good power too, peak @ 7100 with 40mm vents (2276).
somewhere I remember the number "72" coming into play, but now I don't remember where or why.  ::)

Post by: Jim Ratto on January 30, 2010, 00:33:50 am
It would be neat to have a set with a easy way of blocking the plenum, So on the dyno it could be back to backed. Also plenum volume would be important I bet.
Poor mans 58's

I wonder what the "other cylinder" is going to tell the pair of circuits though... meaning the one on compress or exh (Int valve still open?), with the usual manifolds, barrel # 3 has no clue what barrel # 4 is doing, unless one robs the other of fuel (dry float bowl).

I'm sure Doug has a better answer and explanation on "104"

hoping i can enter Doug's room and hope no one kicks me out by slapping the door on my back side on the way out  :D


total newb to vw's  , more on the honda inline 4 stuff's and oddly enough some wisdom in the vw world works for inline 4s and maybe some on the inline 4s would work, maybe not.. but im sure  since their both IC engines..  i know id enjoy the knowledge..


back earlier (hope its not too late) Jim mentioned about  camming,  (hopefully not too overcammed)  a decent/small port or high velocity port'd engine,  in theory i think that should up the VE  if done right, provided the induction system is working in conjunction to the engine+ rpm + displacement and rod ratio , together once again with the exhaust system,

obviously there is more : over cammed, big daddy ports and big jugged motor, that tends to be lazy.. 

is there room to ramble about high velocity ports (provided we dont go to sonic choke) and hefty cams (duration)

?

PETER ,,,

              IT REALLY DOESN'T MATTER WHAT CAM WE USE   (FOR THIS EXAMPLE)    (OR ANY OTHER PART IN "THE SYSTEM")   SO; HERE IT GOES...
                 ANY CAM MOVED FROM A -0- (ZERO POSITION)   TO A FORWARD OR BACKWARD POSITION  "MOVES"    "THE POWER" AROUND !!!
                  SO IF "YOUR COMBO" CAN TURN 9000 RPM'S !!! (MAKE POWER THERE)  AND YOUR NOT USE'N "IT THERE" .... ON THE  STREETS  !!!


       "AND THEN" ADVANCE IT TO "A FORWARD POSITION"  (SAY +2/3DEG.)  YOU "TOOK POWER"    FROM 9000 R'S AND "MOVED IT DOWN" !!! (SAY TO 8000)
          AND GAIN'D "POWER" DOWN LOW !!!      (MORE TORQUE DOWN LOW)      EASIER TO MOVE THE WEIGHT OF THE CAR... "FROM A DEAD STOP"
                                       WAY MORE DRIVE-ABLE      (YOU ALSO QUIT WEAR'N IT OUT SO FAST !!! "IF YOU WERE TURN'N IT THERE")         
                                                                 (YOU REALLY WONT "SEE THE LOSS" IF YOU NEVER WENT THAT HIGH !!!)


             ALSO IF YOU HAVE 42 VENTS .... (SAME 9000 RPM POWER CAPABILITIES)   "WE START'D AT"    (PRIOR TO OUR IMAGINARY CAM ADVANCE)
                          AND GO TO  SMALLER 40 VENTS...     ONCE AGAIN YOU TOOK POWER FROM UPSTAIRS AND MOVED IT DOWN !!!   
                         OR....    MORE "BOTTOM END TORQUE"      WAY MORE DRIVE-ABLE !!!       "AND LAST'S A  HELL OF ALOT LONGER !!!
                               AND YOU "REALLY WONT NOTICE " THE LOSS CAUSE "YOU NEVER "RAN IT UP THAT HIGH IN THE 1ST. PLACE !!!


       "THE SAY'N IS" ....  "IT TAKES ENERGY TO MAKE ENERGY" !!!                 "THE OTHER SAY'N IS" .... "YOU HAVE TO GIVE A LITTLE,,, TO GET A LITTLE"
                                OR....  HOW 'BOUT.....   "YOU NEVER GET SOMETHING FOR NOTHING" !!!          ONE MORE WAY TO SAY IT IS ...

                                                                         "YOU HAVE TO MAKE A SACARIFICE TO MAKE A GAIN" !!!   
 
                                                                AND.....     "THATS THE IN'S & OUT'S" .....       "OF PLUS'S & MINUS'S !!!

     I SAID EARLIER :   SO  YOUR "WIFES & GIRLFRIENDS" COULD GET IT TOO !!!    "CLARITY OF THE ROOM"      VERY GLAD YOU ASK'D FOR A CLARIFCATION !!!

                                  IN "THE REPAIR BIZ".....   NO NEWS IS GOOD NEWS .....     SO IF I DONT SEE YA "IT MUSTA WORK'D" !!!

                                                                                                      LOVE DOUG...

Thanks Doug for the clarification!
To be honest, this is one of your first posts I could completely understand  ;D
I know for a streetcar it would be best to have more power down low, for drivability and all,
now, drivability or good manners dont really interest me ( maybe ignorance or lack of experience ),
I drive a diesel everyday, so for my weekend car I want a beast that turns some revs and keeps going harder.
I know I will have to sacrifice reliabitity, and drivability in traffic jams etc, but for me I think it will be worth the power on top, I thought because of the rpms, the HP gain (with retarded cam)would be higher compared to the torque gain (with advanced cam) off course it all depends on what people want..
I just love the screaming of my motor in that region. I am sorry, I am stubborn :)

If you Do Not change the flow it Wont Go!Any MO, I never have retarded the cam LOL. The 72 degrees ATDC that hes was talking about ,is the rod is 90degree angle to the crank THATS where MAX piston speed is depending on rod ratio. NOT 104! No matter how long the rod it cant be over 90 degrees. Advancing or retarding does not change total power! RACE HARD OR GO HOME ya I remember putting that on the trailer, back in the 80's!

i have a question   ;D newbie time LOL

maybe DB or Rattocalone can help me (well im sure its been thought out by u guys, doubt i came up with sumthing)


is there, or would there be any drawback or benefit

in various "taper"  on the induction system? 

lets say from vstack entry to the carb entry (vstack's base) , the carbs inherent taper tract (including vents)  to manifolds entry/carb base  all the way to manifold base/headport entry ,

we have the usual offerings from the common aftermarket brands, and ofcourse GBE's manifolds

is there a limit to having too much taper?   
======================================================
and lastly, having the carb at a specific height / distance from the back of the valve
is there any benefit to having the carb farther up from the back of the valve? 

like better atomization?   i know on efi's with injectors, having the injectors far back helps atomization and high rpm efficiency..

im not sure if carbs need it? or are they alot better in the "atomization department"  ?


thanks Guys


Ralf
