This one's for Ken Block. ???? Thanks to Scarbs for joining us once again! Go follow him on Twitter for F1 Tech news! ???? https://twitter.com/ScarbsTech Formula 1 engines are INSANE - let me explain. This is a 1.6 litre, turbocharged engine from a Ford Fiesta ST, and it produces a maximum of 197HP. AND THIS is a 1.6 litre, turbocharged engine from a Formula 1 car, and it produces over 1000 horsepower. But what makes them so different? Well, to start the F1 engine costs 2 thousand times more, at around 10 million dollars. So why do they cost so much? Let’s get into it. ????

The folks at LinCo Diesel Performance recently surfaced this 12V Cummins head. There aren't many things more satisfying than seeing metal shine again! #engines #enginebuild #machining #cummins #cylinderhead #surfacing #diesel #dieselengine https://www.enginebuildermag.com/ https://www.lincodieselperformance.com/ ]]> Mon 24 Oct 2022 10:39:29 +0200 https://www.gnarpowpow.com/videos/19256/watch-a-12v-cummins-head-get-surfaced-to-new/ https://www.gnarpowpow.com/videos/19223/finishing-touches-on-the-new-sml-cylinder-heads/
Steve Morris Engines (SME) and the shop's new Centroid CNC machine have completed the billet aluminum SML cylinder head. Now it's time to mock up the SML engine! https://www.enginebuildermag.com/ https://www.stevemorrisengines.com/ #engines #enginebuilding #machining #cnc #cylinderhead #horsepower #performance ]]> Wed 29 Jun 2022 10:36:08 +0200 https://www.gnarpowpow.com/videos/19223/finishing-touches-on-the-new-sml-cylinder-heads/ https://www.gnarpowpow.com/videos/19230/creating-the-sml-cylinder-head-part-3/
Steve Morris keeps hashing out the new SML cylinder head design on the Centroid CNC. Watch to see what makes this new cylinder head special and why the SML engine is special as well. https://www.enginebuildermag.com/ https://www.stevemorrisengines.com/ ]]> Wed 22 Jun 2022 10:36:34 +0200 https://www.gnarpowpow.com/videos/19230/creating-the-sml-cylinder-head-part-3/ https://www.gnarpowpow.com/videos/19234/machining-steve-morris-sml-heads-part-2/
Now that Steve has everything setup in the 5-axis Centroid CNC, the real machine work has begun. Check out the progress on these billet aluminum heads. ]]> Wed 08 Jun 2022 10:36:53 +0200 https://www.gnarpowpow.com/videos/19234/machining-steve-morris-sml-heads-part-2/ https://www.gnarpowpow.com/videos/19236/inside-look-at-steve-morris-engines-sml-heads-part-1/
As Steve continues to develop his SML engine platform, he gives us an inside look at the development of the cylinder heads, which start from a raw block of billet aluminum and turn into a work of art thanks to a Centroid 5-axis CNC. ]]> Wed 01 Jun 2022 10:37:14 +0200 https://www.gnarpowpow.com/videos/19236/inside-look-at-steve-morris-engines-sml-heads-part-1/ https://www.gnarpowpow.com/videos/19254/steve-morris-reintroduces-his-smx-wagon-project/
It's a rare occasion that engine builders get to work on their own projects, but Steve Morris recently got his wagon back out and is showing the ins and outs of his personal SMX engine build, which will debut at Sick Week 2022. In this episode he covers the SMX block characteristics. ]]> Mon 07 Feb 2022 10:39:10 +0200 https://www.gnarpowpow.com/videos/19254/steve-morris-reintroduces-his-smx-wagon-project/ https://www.gnarpowpow.com/videos/19271/rechecking-valve-jobs/
In this episode of Steve Tech, Steve Morris covers why it's a good idea to always check the valve job on cylinder heads, even when they are brand new from the manufacturer. ]]> Tue 25 May 2021 10:42:22 +0200 https://www.gnarpowpow.com/videos/19271/rechecking-valve-jobs/ https://www.gnarpowpow.com/videos/19275/engine-sealing-with-hoops-and-receiver-grooves/
When building engines beyond 2,000 horsepower, cylinder pressures can get intense, making the head gasket's job of sealing the engine a tough one. To create better engine seal in these high-horsepower applications, engine builders such as Steve Morris of Steve Morris Engines, use hoops. In this Steve Tech, Steve walks you through how today’s hoops work, why they’re better than old-school o-rings, what they actually do, how he installs them, and ultimately why it matters and makes a difference when it comes to performance. ]]> Sat 20 Feb 2021 10:43:10 +0200 https://www.gnarpowpow.com/videos/19275/engine-sealing-with-hoops-and-receiver-grooves/ https://www.gnarpowpow.com/videos/19289/engine-block-resurfacing/
No matter whether you have an old or brand new engine block and cylinder head, resurfacing the decks on those components is vital to getting high performance out of your engine. Steve Morris tells you all you need to know in this episode of Steve Tech.

Fine Tuning Turbos..at 120,000 RPM!! (Germany: EP-5). Enjoying a bit more “spirited” driving in the brand new Audi RS3 we rode out in after a detour at Pannhorst Classics, (where we drooled over an unfathomable wealth of rare European classics for a few hour)s, we found ourselves back at our original destination, Ladermanufaktur. Housing a virtually spotless facility full of new, worn down, or completely destroyed arrays of turbos and parts, this small shop specializes in packing a strong competitive advantage into turbocharger applications through precision parts and tweaks! We were fortunate enough to see the process in action as they fired up some of the machines for us to show us how compressor and turbine wheels are balanced and trimmed to remove vibrations all the way up to 120,000RPMS! Seeing the high level of care and precision Ladermanufaktur applies to their turbocharger applications and facility, we can easily see why they are so busy! Not only that, they were cool enough to save us a few days of riding in our rental Skoda by letting us borrow a baller diesel work van that we put to the test as we got back on the Autobahn and headed for the RACE1000 1/2 Mile!
