High-powered VW aircooled motors always look so damn cluttered to me, especially with a turbo. To add to that, they make comparatively little power, and most of those turbo idiots run drawthrough carbs, which kills your compressors wheel.

Huh. Never thought I'd see a cheap alternative to an Offy like that.
>>14700046
Would you believe its a GM Quad 4 engine? 2.3L DOHC 16V. Just take off the engine cover and it looks JUST like an Offenhauser.
>>14700056
No. Like I see, great to see a cheaper alternative, because I'd love to build a prewar Ford one day with an Offy - although that's financially impossible. A Quad 4 seems like a great substitute. Now, I wonder if Ford has a similar DOHC 4-banger, to keep it a Ford-in-a-Ford.
>>14700076
Ford didn't make any engines that looked like the offenhausers to my knowledge.
But GM Quad 4's are plentiful, cheap, and make great power.
The Quad 4 was introduced in 1988 and was last used in 2002 in the Chevrolet Cavalier before being replace with the Ecotec engines.
>>14700086
I know they're plentiful, just feels wrong outting a GM engine in a '32 or a T-bucket.
>>14700107
Deal with it. It's the cheapest alternative to an Offy. Think of it this way.
Oldsmobile was GM's technology division, and the Quad 4 was clearly inspired by the Offenhauser engines. Why else would they make it look so much like an Offenhauser?
Regardless of GM, it's a great engine, and Oldsmobile had MANY engine project canceled by Daddy GM because of the Corvette. That this one snuck through? Awesome.

That engine is so bad ass engineering wise tho
This engine was such an oddball. A lovable oddball though.

Low to the ground so you can load heavy objects into it easily
>>14699742
Hey, I know! Let's make an LS engine huge, expensive and heavy and add almost no additional flow capability vs the best aftermarket OHV heads on the market!
Brilliant!

Mitch at Mercury Racing for it. They offer it as a complete crate engine.

I think it was an interesting experiment, didn't make a ton more power though.

What about making power comparable to top aftermarket heads without having to resort to 0.7"+ valve lifts and shitty low rpm performance
>>14701114
Plenum chamber, it's where the air is balanced before entering the engine. Sized to possibly match the outgoing exhaust pulses.
>>14700880
After le mans they pulled it apart and it had minimal wear, was still in great condition and ready to run another 24 hours no problem
Meanwhile all the piston engines were pissing oil in the pits and struggling to idle
>>14701114
the kind of thing that only shows up on 2 stroke engines and formula ford
>>14700056
does the quad four have head gaskets
because it seems the offy does not
>>14700473
Really useless experiment though, considering GM already tried 4-valve pushrod heads on the LS7, and chose not to use them because they didn't iffer significant gains.
>>14700887
Drawthrough turbo setups are stupid. Throwing droplets of gasoline at a compressor wheel spinning several thousand RPM means you end up with severe damage to the wheel's blad tips.
>>14701874
It doesn't flow 350+ cfm, it doesn't make power comparable to the top end of the market, who cares about how much valve lift you run if your valvetrain/piston dish can handle it, and thanks to LS engine's long stroke, they'll have good low RPM torque. Next!
>no one has posted formula Atlantic 4AGE
>240HP from a 1.6l NA
>>14702192
The Offenhauser has no headgaskets.
The Quad 4 does. The Quad 4 is the closest thing to a Offy you will get in a conventional engine. And just like the Offy, the Quad 4 has set speed records. In 1988, to promote the Quad 4 engine among hot rodders, Oldsmobile built the Aerotech concept (pictured). The Aerotech featured a 2.0L turbocharged variant making around 7-800 HP. The Aerotech became famous for setting a land speed record for closed course top speed with a record of 255 MPH.

>>14701781
Fooken love anti lag
>just fuck up my turbine f.a.m
>>14702806
you dont. the electronic sensor should notify you when oil is low. and you should get it serviced often enough that the ammount of oil in the engine is always known by how much they put in.
>>14702806
Oil level sensor
If it hasn't already happened I can see that thing failing and then it blowing up when the owner (guaranteed nigger) doesn't get it fixed and doesn't bother with the maintenance schedule and ignores the blue smoke emanating from the exhaust.

fucking newfags
They like to call boxer engines H engines in america for some reason, but this is a real H engine.
it was essentially two 1.5 litre flat 8's welded together and the cranks geared together.
>>14699696
Sup brah
>>14702836
Exhaust fooled me. It's like some single cylinder (maybe others too but I don't know) dirt bikes I've seen with each exhaust valve getting it's own pipe.
>>14700200
Fucking stance fag.
And here is another engine from BRM
A V16 displacing only 1.5 litres. running a single centrifugal supercharger.
72psi boost, made 612bhp at 12,200 RPM
>>14702846
is that the Rudezon build?

How many turbos did you want senpai?
>Just give me all the turbos i want to go fast
>>14702856
>72psi
Wew lad
How did they manage that?
>>14702884
low compression, high drive ratio to the centrifugal.
Also it was unreliable as fuck.
>>14702892
were they using special fuels that year?
>>14702896
dunno, i have the book about it at home.
>>14702921
What's the book called?

>>14701874
Did you see how much power they got it to make? It's obvious that there is little to no advantage to it.

Not sure why it was called a V16, there's nothing V-shaped about that configuration at all.

You try fitting a twinturbo V6 transversely into a mid-engined car. It's bad. Terrible. Horrid.

For all the insanity of putting it on a sheet of wood with wheels attached, by itself, it's just a generic aircraft engine, is it not? Sure, pretty high displacement, but not really that much to write home about in terms of engine alone. Might be wrong here, of course.
>>14704348

It's a diesel twostroke. No valves, little vibrations and turbo'd out the ass. It may be a complex build to look at but technologically it is fairly simple. No gasket seals under high pressure either since the piston rings carry all the force. I would be very interested in working on one.
