Masters of Motors (MOM) the new EngineMasters Challenge (EMC)
I won't try it for this and do you have data to support your claim? J.Rob
There is a ton of data out there. Im talking about the abradable coating. It actually allows the piston to go into the bore with almost zero clearance. Then the coating wears off, leaving the running clearance at temp to effectively be zero or close to it.
The tighter the piston to bore (without sticking of course) the better the rings seal, and last. The more the piston rocks, the more the angle of the ring face to the cylinder wall.
I know of two engines that went together with it and measure ring seal, under load was significantly less than it was without it. I forget the blow by numbers but I think it was a reduction in 2 or 3 numbers on the blow by meter. And that was on a pretty well sorted out 900ish BBC.
Line 2 Line also Hs a bunch of other coating as well, but for you time limits and why you want to do, I agree you don’t have time for all that. The abradable coating goes on and won’t come off so it’s a one time deal.
Are you going to use a crank scraper?
