singh grooves

[sleeper_inc]

Ok, I think I'll do this over the summer just for something to do.

Anyways, I'm not sure what head mine is. I think it should be the hart shaped combustion camber, but could it be a different head? (1988 LX)

Anyways, I'm going to post some ideas for some singh grooves

Here is a design I thought of real quick because I have to go do something. (one is a D-Port, other is an oval port) and I'll also be porting the head lightly just to get it all smooth since I want to use this head on my car and I'm still learning

The grooves are supposed to all point toward the plug as far as I know...

I have seen loads of different grooves that people have done, and I'm still working on a final design as I'm writing this

New design, will it work right?

I dont really think it will make that much of a difference

The one question i have is : If they worked then why dont new cars have them?

Actually the automakers are trying and testing the singh grooves right now to see if they can or can't use them

Ah, well then, carry on. BUt i dont think you will notice the 20% or so claimed increases in fuel mileage, or much increased power

 

[sleeper_inc]

I don't expect that much power or fuel mileage, I just want to be able to take my *knock* sensor out without killing something (87 octane gas)

But will it really help with detonation? I would think that it would make it worse. And i dont see hwo it could increase power (i know thats not what youre going for), since it seems like it would reduce the amount of quench

It would help get rid of detonation because all the fuel is being used at once, and this also means you use less gas, and your whole piston is being fired on.
