Back in the day in a communist country if you got the opportunity to have a car you kept that car on the road any way you can. It's how they have skills like this and that gets passed down. In a country like the US or Japan cars are much more disposible. My uncle who was a street sweeper mechanic and worked for the city and motor pool in the military HE had skills like this. Anyone working on regular cars in the US would just buy a new crack or a new car because they are so plentiful and available. A lot of these old cars you see in Cuba are like this, hardcore hack jobs but because of that they have no real value on the international classic car market.

Other than the possibility of the cam lobes and crankshaft throws being slightly off, the problem with the engine not revving lies in the intake manifold. It was designed for a flat plane crankshaft, and it was manufactured to flow well with that crank setup. Make a pair of manifolds with two runners each and a single carb on each manifold. The engine will rev until the crank falls out.

@Catrik 2 ай бұрын

The intake has four individual runners. It is not going to make any difference if its a flatplane or crossplane engine. It doesnt rev because the crank- and camshaft are complete junk, literally welded together from pieces. They should be turned and balanced, and even then you're missing a balance shaft, which is going to be a pretty diffcult issue to solve.

@honkie247 2 ай бұрын

@@CatrikI agree that the intake has 4 individual runners, but it is fed from a common plenum . The center two cylinders would run rich, because the carb is directly across from them, and those runners are shorter, so they make those runners smaller in diameter to lean the mixture. The outer runners are longer and of a different diameter. They were designed for that particular firing order, which has dramatically changed, which will make a different intake manifold design necessary. There are cam grinders that make a cam for Ford 351W engines to change the firing order. More horsepower results, but the stock intake manifold must be changed or two cylinders (I don't recall which two) run rich with the new firing order.

The cross plane crank in motorcycle applications was intended to help the drive tire have improved traction by controlling the power pulses released by the engine. Instead of the power pulses with the standard firing order assaulting the tire and making it harder to control, the cross plane crank allowed a pause in the firing and this allows the tire to gain traction.

I guess I’m referring to an extremely advanced machine shop that can truly balance cranks, use dial micrometers to clock and rotate the cams and crank shaft. Basically actually build the engine like they were factory or aftermarket parts that are perfectly clocked and balanced. I love that they do stuff like this. But taking a flat plane crank to a cross plane with no adjustments to the counter weights on the crank is going to cause huge vibrations, like what broke the bell housing. It would be super cool to see a “built” cross plane Lada engine that they could put on dynos and take racing.

The advantage of Yamaha's cross-plane arrangement, as i understand it, is to stack power stokes so traction will break momentarily when traction is near its limit. This is useful (as feedback) for motorcycle riders as they (we) apply throttle when exiting a turn to accelerate. As the rear tire begins to untermittently slip, the rider can optimally modulate power for the conditions. It seems to me, this mod would only help in a car; 1) if your engine has enough power to break traction, and 2) the car doesn't have ABS/traction control.

The reason yamaha used the crossplane in the r6 was to change the firing spacing. Normally, the spacing is even but with the crossplane you get 2 cylinders firing in quick succesion then a breif pause the idea was the 2 quick pulses would accelerate you out of the corner while the small pauses give the tires a break keeping from exceeding the grip of the tires. Quick edit: This is why the cross plane motors were called big bang motors . The 2 quick power pulses acted as a bigger power pulse.

@aidanlyons1155 2 ай бұрын

exactly, except it was the R1 not the R6. It gives the rear tire a chance to keep traction when on the side of the tire. It was used on the M1 yamaha in Motogp, where they get 300 hp out of 1000cc engines, no turbos, bore limit of 78mm and limited fuel and they stlll make insane hp

Good effort! You are half way there. Now do one in a different way : cut the crank in the middle only, and rotate one half 90° away. You will see that Yamaha has done it wrong. This way, it can operate without balancer shafts, same as an URS engine.

Very cool sounds from an in-line 4! I’m into American V8s and the sound. Cross plane cranks rule!

For the race application you spoke of. You wouldn’t reduce engine vibration. The standard online 4 has acceptable balance already. The Yamaha R1 cross plane has balancers that were added for the cross plane set up that weren’t on the previous motor. Those balancers try to equal out the new inbalance of the cross plane. As the standard Lada engine doesn’t have those balancers I would expect there to be more inbalance with this set up. The point of the cross plane 4 in the Yamaha bike is that all the bikes had more power than they could use in MotoGP so they sacrificed engine power for better acceleration out of the corner on the limit of the grip. The “lumpier” drive out of the corner gives the rider better feeling adding to the control of the drive out of the corner.

Chevrolet did the opposite of this quite a while ago. They used a 90 degree V block and a 180 degree crankshaft instead of a standard 90 degree crankshaft. They called it a flat plane crankshaft, worked well. You can find a lot of information on it via internet.

Great to see/hear you have realized this project. Cross plain crankshaft is giving similar ignition and sound like V8 or V2. Now would be nice to do a dyno run to check and compare torque and power with original engine.
