Kungakhathaliseki ukuthi ungumakhi wezinjini ochwepheshe, umakhenikha noma umenzi, noma umthandi wezimoto othanda izinjini, izimoto zomjaho nezimoto ezisheshayo, i-Engine Builder inokuthile okukulungele. Omagazini bethu abaphrintiwe banikeza imininingwane yobuchwepheshe kukho konke okudingeka ukwazi mayelana nemboni yezinjini kanye nezimakethe zayo ezahlukahlukene, kuyilapho izinketho zethu zezindaba zikugcina usesikhathini ngezindaba zakamuva nemikhiqizo, ulwazi lobuchwepheshe kanye nokusebenza kwemboni. Kodwa-ke, ungakuthola konke lokhu ngokubhalisela kuphela. Bhalisa manje ukuze uthole izinhlelo eziphrintiwe njalo ngenyanga kanye/noma ze-elekthronikhi ze-Engine Builders Magazine, kanye ne-Weekly Engine Builders Newsletter yethu, i-Weekly Engine Newsletter noma i-Weekly Diesel Newsletter, ngqo ebhokisini lakho lokungenayo.

UNeil Riley kanye nabalingani bakhe abathathu bathenga iNewco Performance Engines ngo-Okthoba odlule. Manje sebeba yisitolo sezinjini zokusebenza eKentland, e-Indiana futhi benza izinjini ezifana nale 348 Chevy Stroker! Thola ukuthi le Chevy sleeper yakhani.
Lapho uNeil Riley eqeda esikoleni samabanga aphezulu, wayefuna ngempela ukungena embonini yezimoto. Wathola umsebenzi wokuba umakhenikha wezinjini zikadizili, kodwa ngokushesha waba nesifiso sokwakha izinjini ezisebenza kahle kakhulu. Ngokushesha wazithola esekhaya le-L. Young Co. Inc., isitolo semishini eKentland, e-Indiana. Waqala ukusebenza esitolo eminyakeni eyisithupha edlule eneminyaka engu-25 ubudala.
“Ngokuyinhloko senza izinjini zomjaho ezikhethekile, izinjini zasefektri kanye nezinjini zakudala,” kusho uRiley. “Kuyinhlanganisela yakho konke okungenhla.”
Umnikazi wesitolo semishini ngaleso sikhathi kwakunguLarry Young oneminyaka engu-75 ubudala, owayehlela ukuthatha umhlalaphansi. Ebona ithuba lokuphakamisa isitolo, uRiley kanye nabalingani bakhe abathathu baya kumnikazi, benethemba lokumthengisela isitolo. URiley wathatha ubunikazi ngokusemthethweni ngo-Okthoba 2018 futhi waqamba kabusha isitolo ngokuthi iNewco Performance Engines LLC.
“Ngithenge lesi sitolo ngoba ngithanda ukwakha izinjini futhi ngifuna ukuba ngumkhiqizi wezinjini odumile endaweni,” kusho yena. “Ngifuna ukushiya uphawu. Manje sizama ukukhuphula izinga, senze izinjini eziningi futhi siqinise ukuba khona kwethu.”
I-Newco Performance Engines inabasebenzi abane futhi ithatha indawo engamafidi-skwele angu-3,200. Lesi sitolo siyisitolo semishini esiphelele, kodwa asikwenzi ukugaya imishini noma ukuhlanza okunzima.
“Siyamthumela,” kusho uRiley. “Senza i-computer balancing, drilling and loning, full head rebuilds, scaling, TIG welding and custom assembly.”
I-workshop isanda kuqeda ukuhlanganisa i-Chevrolet Stroker 348 yekhasimende elisha, okwathi i-workshop yaphuka ngamasentimitha angu-0.030 futhi yakhushulwa yaba amasentimitha angu-434.
“Sizenzele konke okuyisicefe, ukuhlikihla, ukulinganisela kanye nokusika isihlalo sekhanda ngokwethu,” kusho uRiley. “Siphinde sasebenza ku-delta valve kanye nomsebenzi wokuxuba izitsha kanye nokufaka i-port. Siphinde sayiguqula yaba yi-screw-in stud.”
Ngaphakathi kwale injini ye-Chevrolet 434 cid, i-Newco Performance isebenzise ama-crank e-Scat ahlanganisiwe kanye nama-Scat I-beams, kanye nama-piston e-Icon ahlanganisiwe anesilinganiso sokucindezela esingu-10.5:1, ama-valve ensimbi engagqwali kanye nezihlalo eziqinisiwe ezengeziwe.
Injini inezinjini zokuphakamisa i-hydraulic roller camshafts, izihlikihli ze-Howard kanye nezipilingi, i-Cloyes True roller timing, i-ARP hardware, ama-COMP Cams Ultra Pro Magnum roller rockers, ama-Engine Pro 3/8 tappets, i-Melling high capacity oil pump, kanye ne-real air intake manifold kanye ne-carburetor. Abathengisi be-GM nabo bashintshele kuma-Pertronix igniters.
“Lona umbhede,” esho. “Le njini kufanele inike umthengi amandla angu-400 ehhashi ku-5200 rpm kanye ne-torque engaba ngu-425 lb-ft.”
Iphephandaba le-e-injini laleli sonto lixhaswe yiPennGrade Motor Oil kanye ne-Elring-Das Original.
Uma unenjini ongathanda ukuyigqamisa kulolu chungechunge, thumela i-imeyili kuGreg Jones, uMhleli Omkhulu we-Engine Builder Magazine, ku-[email protected]
