it just baffles my not how engines work but how they got all the timing of the crankshaft, pushrods, distributor, and sparkplugs all working together in perfect harmony

Excellent work!! Enjoyed watching it, immensely!

Cool video. I guess this applies to my 4.8 liter vortec in my 04 Sierra Thanks for sharing this

Excellent! Well done!

This is so beautiful

@Beef1188 Even many new Dodge and Chevy engines are still using pushrod. They can't seem to break away from the technology. NASCAR is stilling using pushrod - you'd think in the racing industry they'd want to switch to 4 valves per cylinder.

mechanic is just beautiful

The way the intake runners wrap down into the heads reminds me of the face-huggers in the Alien movies.

good job man!

Great video

@lilaznmage15 it is the water pump, the pully isnt added to it till the end of the video, were the alternator is on the left side of the block next to the head

@Deciblaster So equally, in the 1990's, Ford came out with the SOHC 4.6L V8. This produced 215 HP and 285 lb.-ft of torque. Fuel economy was rated 16 city / 22 highway by the EPA. These cars were also known to be made of cheap materials, and thus, didn't last very long under hard driving, at least without major repairs. This modular engine also ate head gaskets for breakfast. Corvettes of the same period used a 5.7L LT1 V8. They produced 300 HP and 330 lb-ft of torque...

good work, i like it :)

that's an epic engine :D

@1BlubeTube I believe it is the small block TPI used in the camaros and corvettes of the early 90's.

@chamote A diesel engine does not have spark plugs. The compressed (hot) air at the top of the 2 stroke is injected with diesel fuel and ignites. Instead of a fuel intake valve, a diesel engine has an air intake valve and an exhuast valve.

@aznbenle21- tuned port i.e port polish, making the inlet and exhaust ports wider and more free flowing than the standard manufacturers design, increasing engine power

fantastic

This amination remember me of an old game called Street Rod, that we can see the engine like that.

I think my 600rwhp street Mustang sounds and performs just beautifully.

@FromThe3PointLine Blue thing is a rocker cover, the thing under it is a cylinder head

@ZWILD1 Also, some great engineers realize that, they can use also some god things on OHV (pushrods). Today, GM improved 4th Gen of pushrods very well, so they produce higher power and torque, higher rpm, EFI... Also multi-valve tech on pushrods are possible (ARAO heads 32 valves), as twin spark tech, high duration cams, lighter heads, wider bore, shorter stroke, direct injection, dry sump...and much more. OHC or OHV both have advantages and disadvantages.

good job

Great Job

ambient occlusion, and Smoothing would make this animation 100 times better!

@esfreerider yeah its a different engine that my father put in the truck when he owned it, but that was in 58-59 dont remember. The engine does have 345k miles on it and the body about 80k more.

@ratmphan fuel injectors controlled electronically. in this case they are placed in the intake ports right before the intake valves. more modern engines have direct injection where the injector's inject fuel directly into the cylinder, hope this helps and is accurate.

spark plug firing order on a chevy 350 is 18346972. always has been always will be. from joe shmoes 72 nova to my 96 tahoe. lengendary engine. fux wit it

Great learning tool! Thanks.

I Like this video, I have not dismantle this style v-8 yet I am use to the carburetor, type intake manifold I know you didn`t include everything but there is enough for me to get it. IThank you

Holy shit I'm watching this 7 years after I watched it last time in 2010....On the same OS.

Looks just like a L98! :D

You forgot the Flywheel... Great 3d :)

@ratmphan the fuel injectors physicly inject the fuel. the injectors may be electronicly controlled to when they inject the fuel.

Corvette c6, ford GT40, Shelby cobra, De Tomaso Pantera, Lola, etc, very competible cars with pushrods, the corvettes works like swiss watches leaving exotics behind wih 12 cyl and four cams....

you don´t need have a car to love engines, this run in your blood xd

Awosome dizayn, thanks for animation

@DanishHll true, but they have pre heaters for the cold start, this one doesnt have them, so either way he forgot something

very very nice

@SaabyHun97 its not an overhead cam desighn, one camshaft pushes on pushrods moveing the rockerarms. so yes its a single cam

Cool video. The factory L98 engine doesnt come with a 4 bolt main, double roller timing set, or roller rockers though.

@MultiAREE this design was used until 1992. and a very close variation (the lt1), was used until 1997.

250 horsepowers or something like that is very impressive from the naturally aspirated two litre inline four dohc engine of Honda S2000, quite a lot of power from that displacement and cylinder count

@Adriangrosvenor This is when you look from front the right side of the engine is 1,3,5,7 on the left side it is 2,4,6,8 very simple its much more easy on V8 then it is on a l4

This is a good video (Liked it!) But can you make one that explains about the parts? Im trying to better understand car engines and cars in general.

TPI rules, have it in my 87 ta. This thing is a torque monster for a factory setup. It does have hp flaws bc the runners arent straight but it promotes tq bc of how long the runners are but when it comes time to upgrade, get the larger manifold, runners, and throttle body from tpis and this thing will be equal in hp and tq in its design.

Chevrolet old school 350 5.7L 4bolt main with late 80's TPI Tuned Port Injection, looks good to me.

It doesn't have any spark plugs or spark plug wires, either (does have a distributor, though). No idea if there's a rotor, as the distributor is just blipped in to existence with the cap on.

good animation

i was just watching the bugatti W16 this is so much simpler. good ol pushrod v8s.

Im new to this but whats holding up the pushrods? What is the correct term for it?

Nice one ...what software u used to make this animation ?

OHC so RETRO... Give DOHC a World Bud! Nice video Tough, Wish I could CAD like this...

Well I noticed one incorrect item that was placed on the engine. YES youll read about spark plugs and oil pump but mine is something that everyone failed to notice. Someone mentioned HEI Coil in Cap distributor and they failed to realize that these engines did not have that type of HEI distributor. My 87 IROC had an external coil that mounted on the engine. I love the old Coil in Cap distributors. Fully self contained and the easiest way to change from a conventional to an electronic ignition.

I know every single part and its missing some as well, I took apart my 87 iroc TPI engine. I need a new one though

i want the "Haulin' Azz!" racing game so bad

Don't think for a second that a flat plane crank is smoother than a cross plane crank, because it isn't.

good learning..i cant imagine the technology

impressionnant

@Celler2 yea they didnt make dual cam v-8s except raceing

very nice engine! does it have sparkplugs?

@andrewlamb123 Instead of focusing on 4 cylinder efficiency, some guy said "Hey lets add 4 more cylinders to extract more power!" Rather than focusing on making each cylinder more precise & powerful.

Very Nice!! What software did u use to animate?

I wish the oil filter was there on all cars it would make my life easier since I do oil changes once a week

Nice job i like it

cuz it do less time to open the valves and close them ;) an ohv needs the camshaft to push the lifter then push the flutes then push the rocker ;) an ohc only push the rocker or the valves depending on the motor configuration

@PivotSk8erTommy possibly yes he forgot it but if its a diesel drived car it doesnt need spark plugs because it makes big compression wich makes the fuel mixture explode by itself :)

Its an LT1 engine from the 92-97 Camaro's

That is a mean looking engine

It's quaint how GM is still toying with push-rod motors, with all the technology we have today.

@KristoffersonPT 283 are literally the best engines ever.

def an older tpi...87 n up had the center bolt valve covers

@awesomepat because I don't actually know the firing order of this vehicle I bought. Also how can I work out the compression ratio of the engine? is their a simple way for me to do this? Original the engine is a 1liter engine (1000cc) but am looking at making the pistons increase compression. So this is why I need a simple way to figure out the firing order before i proceed.

Neat! i can do that on inventor as i did one too and it was so easy to build and even run it! btw is that the inventor program?

This engine uses rocker arms?

sweet vid... is this a 305 TPI or 350 TPI? Is there any actual difference between both engines apart from the displacement?

@Blazerota alright thanks, do you happen to know what part of the engine this is- 2:13 ?

S.B.C. the best motor ever put in anything!

@GeorgeC1992 he races it.. the heat from the high rpms breaks down the oil much faster than just granny driving

@way2easy2love lol oh really now? Explain to me what a Cadillac Northstar engine is? Or an LT5 out of a C4 corvette? I guess technically they are not "dual cam" engines because idk what that is. But I know they are a dual overhead cam setup.

@cichlidkeeper89 Its got a OHV pushrod, how old is that thing?

@lilaznmage15 right on the front of the block, its fan belt driven, not cam chain driven

@g18ans hell yea man v8 owns all

@guntis - If you lived in America and could experience the eyeball flattening torque of a pushrod V-8, you wouldn't say that at all. :)

cool i love engines

and also, what is the cover type thing that is on the front face of the motor, its above the crank and is protruding from the front? this thing - 2:13

@Deciblaster ...but also chugged gas; 15 city / 22 highway. And it could only seat 2 mid-sized people. Also, how exactly are turbos "POS"? Why, because they run off of the exhaust instead of a pulley (which adds strain and poorer MPG)? Because they don't have much of an effect on a lower-revving American car as they would a foreign car that redlines at 8,000? Tell me please, because I'm curious.

@awesomepat Yes, but not all vehilcles operate on the same exact firing order. Some are 1432, each carrying a different firing order. But lets say I don't have the actual firing order from the manufacturer but I already know that two pistons move in the same direction up while two move down, (in the case of a 4 cylinder engine) how do I identify which piston is on the power stroke first, second, third, etc. That i can know the firing order. Is their a way to tell by the valves

@cobrafreak93 actually, it looks more like a Gen1 TPI. because that what my engine is, and its identical.

Lol. What do run in the 1/4 with a 4 cylinder v-tec?

@madjimms a ford ranger 2.3 is rated at 23 highway and 20 city, i average 20. my brothers full size chevy scottsdale with a tbi 350 gets the same gas mileage. it doesn't make sense. it just depends on the car and the engineering. infact i have a 302 ready to drop into my truck, it will get the same gas mileage, but i will have over twice the power. sounds like a good deal to me.

i know dumb question.... are those orange bars the fuel rails? and if so what kind of fuel injection is this? multi port or sequential? direct injection? much appreciated if you can answer.

can you upload the software please ? I am a 3d artist in my free time and it is very hard to find good reference pictures of engines to model them. This would be the perfect software to get all the reference i need to build engines. if not, thanks for the videos anyway

oye te faltaron las bujias, espark??

It works in 270 degree angle ???

just wondering, how long did it take to render and what processor and vpu was used?

@PivotSk8erTommy You are definitely right. Nice Spot.

@Honda4wheeler4ever It does look alot like Autodesk Inventor (I've used it before, and I agree that it looks similar to this) however it's actually from the videogame this company makes, HaulinAzz. I haven't played it, but it looks cool.

@cobrafreak93 whats the diff between that and an ls1?

It's an single inblock camshaft engine... you can see the camshaft, sprocket and timing chain from 0:50 to 1:00
