UNeil Riley kunye namaqabane amathathu bathenge iiNewco Performance Engines ngo-Okthobha ophelileyo. Ngoku baba yivenkile yeenjini zokusebenza eKentland, eIndiana kwaye benza iinjini ezifana nale 348 Chevy Stroker! Fumanisa ukuba le Chevy sleeper yakhiwe yintoni.
Xa uNeil Riley wagqiba kwisikolo samabanga aphakamileyo, wayefuna ngokwenene ukungena kwishishini leemoto. Wafumana umsebenzi njengomkhandi weenjini zedizili, kodwa kungekudala waba nomnqweno wokwakha iinjini ezisebenza kakuhle. Kungekudala wazifumana ekwikhaya le-L. Young Co. Inc., ivenkile yoomatshini eKentland, eIndiana. Waqala ukusebenza kule venkile kwiminyaka emithandathu eyadlulayo xa wayeneminyaka engama-25 ubudala.
“Ngokuyintloko senza iinjini zomdyarho ezikhethekileyo, iinjini zefektri kunye neenjini zakudala,” utshilo uRiley. “Ngumxube wazo zonke ezi zinto zingasentla.”
Umnini wevenkile yoomatshini ngelo xesha yayinguLarry Young oneminyaka engama-75 ubudala, owayeceba ukuthatha umhlala-phantsi. Ebona ithuba lokunyusa ivenkile iye kwinqanaba elilandelayo, uRiley kunye namaqabane amathathu baya kumniniyo, benethemba lokuyithengisa kubo. URiley wathabatha ubunini ngokusesikweni ngo-Okthobha ka-2018 waza wayithiya igama elitsha ivenkile ngokuba yiNewco Performance Engines LLC.
“Ndithenge le venkile kuba ndiyakuthanda ukwakha iinjini kwaye ndifuna ukuba ngumenzi weenjini odumileyo kule ndawo,” utshilo. “Ndifuna ukushiya uphawu. Ngoku sizama ukunyuka inqanaba, senze iinjini ezininzi kwaye siqinise ubukho bethu.”
I-Newco Performance Engines inabasebenzi abane kwaye ithatha indawo engama-3,200 square feet. Le venkile yivenkile yoomatshini epheleleyo, kodwa ayisebenzi ngokugaya ii-crank okanye ukucoca kakhulu.
“Siyamthumela,” utshilo uRiley. “Senza i-computer balancing, drilling and loning, full head rebuilds, scaling, TIG welding and custom assembly.”
I-workshop isandula ukugqiba ukuhlanganisa iChevrolet Stroker 348 kumthengi omtsha, eyathi i-workshop yaphuka nge-0.030 intshi yaza yandiswa ukuya kwi-434 cubic intshi.
“Sizenzele zonke izinto ezidinisayo, ezirhabaxa, ezilungelelanisiweyo nezisika izitulo eziyintloko ngokwethu,” utshilo uRiley. “Sikwasebenze nakwivalvu yedelta kunye nomsebenzi wokuxuba izitya kunye nokufaka izibuko. Sikwayiguqulele kwistud efakwe ngesikrufu.”
Kwizinto zangaphakathi zale injini yeChevrolet 434 cid, iNewco Performance isebenzise ii-cranks zeScat eziqingqiweyo kunye nee-Scat I-beams, kunye nee-piston ze-Icon eziqingqiweyo ezinomlinganiselo woxinzelelo we-10.5:1, iivalvu zentsimbi engagqwaliyo kunye nezihlalo eziqinileyo ezongeziweyo.
Injini inee-hydraulic roller camshafts, ii-Howard lifters kunye nezipringi, ii-Cloyes True roller timing, ii-ARP hardware, ii-COMP Cams Ultra Pro Magnum roller rockers, ii-Engine Pro 3/8 tappets, i-Melling high capacity oil pump, kunye ne-real air intake manifold kunye ne-carburetor. Abathengisi be-GM nabo batshintshele kwi-Pertronix igniters.
“Le yibhedi,” utshilo. “Le njini ifanele ukunika umthengi amandla ehashe angama-400 kwi-5200 rpm kunye ne-torque emalunga ne-425 lb-ft ye-torque.”
Iphephandaba le-e-injini yale veki lixhaswe yiPennGrade Motor Oil kunye ne-Elring-Das Original.
Ukuba unenjini ongathanda ukuyigqamisa kolu ngcelele, thumela i-imeyile kuGreg Jones, uMhleli oyiNtloko weMagazini ye-Engine Builder, ku-[email protected]
