Thanks to innovations like friction reduction trough Diamond - Like Coating
for tappets and camshaft lobes, the 4.7 - liter V8 engine delivers 454 horsepower and a peak torque of 384 lb / ft.
Not exact matches
There are no intake or exhaust valves in a Wankel and hence no need
for a camshaft or
tappets to actuate them.
If you're a fan of public radio, you will very much appreciate this video of Rep. Anthony Weiner, a Queens Democrat, «thanking» his GOP colleagues — tongue firmly in cheek —
for pushing a vote on whether to defund NPR, «protecting» the American people from Click and Clack, the
Tappet Brothers.
Based on the value - driven 350 HO crate engine, our engineers swapped the flat -
tappet camshaft
for a hydraulic roller and added the latest Small - Block intake manifold design.
Its characteristic features are classic dry sump lubrication with an external oil tank, titanium connecting rods, forged pistons, cup
tappets fully suited
for very high engine speeds, and a variable intake system with two resonance flaps.
It also believed to feature individual ignition coils
for each cylinder, spark plugs centralised in the combustion chamber and hydraulic
tappets with rotor arms.
Credit
for this longevity goes to long - wearing platinum - tipped spark plugs, a long - life timing chain, and careful engineering of the precisely manufactured DOHC valvetrain - which reliably maintains proper valve
tappet clearances until the first tune - up.
Credit
for this longevity goes to long - wearing iridium spark plugs, a long - life timing chain, and careful engineering of the precisely manufactured SOHC valvetrain - which reliably maintains proper valve
tappet clearances until the first tune - up.
Both powered by a 16v 1.6 > Six - speed gearbox (from 2012) makes
for more relaxed cruising and the first five ratios remain closely stacked; both» boxes benefit from regular oil changes — failures have been reported > Service intervals are short at 9000 miles; make sure they've been met >
Tappets are not hydraulic, so require manual adjustment
Other engine highlights include a direct drive valvetrain that eliminates valve
tappet clearance adjustment, and a direct - ignition system that places the ignition coils over the spark plugs, eliminating the need
for a distributor and high - tension ignition wires.
