Re: Rember the intake port texture debates?
Looks nice Charlie. Did you bend a bit for doing your finish?
Re: Rember the intake port texture debates?
No, it vibrates enough with a straight shaft. Thanks, CharlieSmoke ring wrote:Looks nice Charlie. Did you bend a bit for doing your finish?

Re: Rember the intake port texture debates?
I've read through every single post in here and I like what I'm seeing and hearing. My question is, will this be beneficial for on the efi setup where the injectors are located at the flange of the intake manifold like on today's standard engine setups? I'm more interested in doing the intake manifold on these little Honda engines with the burr finish and this is what I typically work on.

Re: Rember the intake port texture debates?
I always polish the EFI intake tract above the injector. Ford extrude honed the Contour SVT intake, TB, and intake ports to increase the power. I have been porting and cutting the EFI plenums and welding them back together since 1987. Always had great success with a super smooth finish on the runners where no fuel is in suspension. I use 120-180 grit for most finishes, and occasionally I will go to 220. Joe-71

Obviously written by a lawyer!BradH wrote: ↑Tue Aug 08, 2017 1:22 pm Check this link out: http://www.google.com/patents/US20110265770 It appears someone tried (successfully?) to patent the CONCEPT of textured surfaces in an ICE as "the invention":
"Abstract
An internal combustion engine includes a combustion chamber defined by a cylinder, a piston defining a piston top, a cylinder head with an intake port and an exhaust port, and a corresponding intake valve and an exhaust valve. The internal combustion engine further includes an intake manifold for supplying air to the combustion chamber and an exhaust manifold for drawing exhaust gas from the combustion chamber. The flow dynamics of the internal combustion engine are improved by including textured surfaces on one or more of the piston top, the cylinder head, the intake valve, the intake port, the exhaust valve, the intake manifold, the exhaust manifold, or the fuel supplier. The textured surface may include indentations, protrusions, or combinations."
Read the "Summary of Invention" section for a good example of someone saying NOTHING while trying to cover all the possibilities. I hope to He11 this got rejected for lack of any real substantiating evidence for the patent claim.

Re: Rember the intake port texture debates?
Forgive me for posting this in more than one thread but I want DV to see this before I send out his next shipment. After seeing cnc work on the back of a valve I wondered what could be done by hand. I grabbed a used up 1.94" Chevy valve and did a bit of burr work on it. Interested in opinions on this. Thanks, Charlie

Re: Rember the intake port texture debates?
Just my thoughts out here... won't this texture simply provide a better 'ground' for carbon buildup?
Re: Rember the intake port texture debates?
I bet yes, if you have not optimal valve stem seal working , plus some reversion on it.
Re: Rember the intake port texture debates?
I guess the same could be said for textured ports and chambers. If the guides are done correctly I don't think there will be an issue.

Re: Rember the intake port texture debates?
The benefit of dimpling as it creates turbulence at the boundary layer, is that it helps the flow stay attached longer to the particular surface. The boundary layer is thicker versus a smooth surface so drag is slightly higher. So it seems to me, the best use of this would be only to use rough surface texture when the air has to turn (short side radius for example). Would love to see a flow test of texture on turns vs smooth vs texture on all

Re: Rember the intake port texture debates?
Possible stress risers on the valve worry me. Possibly just paranoid.
Re: Rember the intake port texture debates?
I did not grind the stem as it is highly stressed. I don't feel the back of the valve will have any stress riser issues but it is a good point.
