Steve Tech Video on Springs, what you need, what to look for, how to install, and what's is going on with todays Racing Springs.
Good Tech Explained Simply !
Before some over explaining rocket scientist gets on here to correct me or add to my comments, neither this or any one of my videos is made for someone like a Jon Kaase, Who I like and think is very smart guy with a LOT of experience. He and others probably know more than I do about a lot of things, but that is not what we are doing here. I am giving the average Joe really good accurate tech and explaining in a way that is not condescending.
( I only mention Jon because I respect the guy and others like him that as far as I know do NOT trash talk, as for others that can only tear others down in the hopes to build themselves up................)

Excellent Steve! I've used beehive springs for 17 years. Per your recommendation, They have worked great.

I know frig all about race engines, fastest vehicle I ever had was my LBZ, it was fast 550hp 1000ft tq, but I do wanna build a 600 hp car, and this channel is priceless, thanks Steve for making them for us dummies. Cheers from Chestermere.

You were talking about not having .300” before coil bind due to surge, I’d say cam loft would be bad as well, with .300” before bind. From what you’ve taught us. I’m no engine builder, just an assembler though.

I agree running close to coil bind is a good idea.

@EricFixalot 2 жыл бұрын

I’ve heard some builders say that they’ve taken the center spring out of a triple spring and valve control was very similar because supposedly most of the spring pressure the third spring makes goes into controlling it’s own weight.

@bwatt1383 2 жыл бұрын

hey steve thanks for your videos! one thing im wondering is the relation between cylinder pressure and valvetrain stress? ive been binging on videos the past few months and most videos seems to focus on effects of high rpm

@leftyeh6495 2 жыл бұрын

There are effects such as you need a stronger exhaust valve because of cylinder pressure. Intake is opening on minimal pressure, exhaust is opening on lots of pressure. What I've found interesting is the dwell time vs stress. It takes better parts and better engineering to control the parts at a higher RPM, but since the dwell time is shorter they can actually live longer under higher pressures than a low RPM build. It was kinda mind blowing to find out that you can chuck a ton of boost onto the pistons and rods at 5000rpm, but that same torque output at 2500 rpm would start bending rods since the stresses are the similar, but last twice as long.

What do they look like after being run to bind 100 times?

@leftyeh6495 2 жыл бұрын

A quality spring will have a designed set height after break-in. Considering 100 times is a few seconds at idle for a spring, I'd guess it would still look new. Test it, install it, run it 1000 miles, and then test it again. That would actually tell you how it's going to last.

@billb410 2 жыл бұрын

@@leftyeh6495 Way back in the day I was told by several engine builders that running new springs to bind a hundred times or more would extend their lives. One built 327ci SBC's for drag racing that turned 13,000 rpm. Spring failure was a big problem no matter what springs he used until he started running new springs to bind 100 times. He also was able to ID springs prone to failure as bad once drifted out of spec. Another built German Ford V6's for endurance road racing. He had cam and spring failures and was pulling his hair out until he started running new springs to bind before use. Reason I posted the previous is it would be interesting to see if either of the two spring types would drift out of spec if run to bind a bunch of times.

Steve why do you have two channels? Steve Morris Engines and then Engine Builder. It's very confusing! I think it's a new video and start watching only to find out it's a rerun from Engine Builder.

@stevemorrisracing 2 жыл бұрын

@leftyeh6495 2 жыл бұрын

Guys like me that didn't know engine builder was Steve's channel. I found Steve because of Cleetus and Tom Bailey, and I'd heard the name a few times in Roadkill/Hot Rod stuff. He's kinda getting to the point his name is what sells, because he's built one hell of a reputation behind it. Engine builder I would ignore as it sounds like a shadetree mechanic type channel, not really what I'm interested in or trying to learn about at this time.

Watching your channel and having seen your product in cars and everything some ppl had to go through to get issues fixed (that were your fuck-ups) I’d NEVER buy one of your engines because I’d always be thinking in the back of my mind, ‘l wonder what he forgot in mine qnd what’s wrong with it’. There always would UNDOUBTABLY be SOMETHING either forgotten entirely or overlooked or not engineered correctly and requires some after-care. I wouldn’t want that kinda worry with your high-priced engines. They are supposed to be piece of mind kind of engines. No such thing as piece of mind exists when running your engines. Only know you’d have to come back or have it shipped back to have to fix something you’ve fucked up or forgot. JMHO Never would buy it. Never.
