Um... All Modern GM V8's are 2 Valve/Cylinder.....

Damn near every high performance V8 from GM uses two valves per cylinder still. Ford had the Triton engines with three valves as well.

Corvettes still have 2 valves/cylinder, along with the 5.3 truck I just bought.

But how fast can it squeeze juice out of prepackaged bags?

There is no way on earth* that this doesn’t increase the rolling resistance on the cars. I suppose the question is whether or not the system can be made efficient enough that the energy gained is worth it.

That’s what testing is for!

They should be more correctly called “Power Stealing roads”. Cars running on this road will transfer some of their energy to the road thus allow them to generate power. How much this affects the cars MPG is unknown but these roads will affect rolling resistance and in turn the cars traveling across it. Conservation of…

So do they manage to do this without increasing rolling resistance to the cars? If the road deforms more than typical asphalt, they really wouldn’t be capturing lost energy as much as taking energy from people’s cars (which aren’t exactly thermodynamically efficient to begin with)

I would have to say that dip is maybe the most disgusting of all tobacco habits. Playing football in college was the first time I really saw it. Sitting in rooms next to guys with their spit cup was the most revolting habit i can imagine.

Because driving a car with a cage without a helmet is a death wish...

I can’t imagine the cost of integrating a NHTSA compliant (or whatever the governing safety standard entity is) roll cage. Bashing your head into the roll cage without a helmet on the small, frontal overlap crash test I’m sure is something SRT didn’t want to deal with.

100LL is gasoline. Jet fuel is basically kerosene, so, maybe kinda sorta usable in some diesels, but definitely not gas engines.

The transmission consists of an horizontal input shaft with a bevel gear meshing with two output bevel gears at the bottom of the rotor shafts, slightly canted. Only way they’ll get out of sync is if you strip or jump gear teeth.

Not an aero but I’d have to imagine that the synchro is handled by a mechanical linkage or something equivalent. I can’t see a scenario where you’d want to drive power to one rotor and not the other.

Don’t the original helicopter drone, The DASH.

Why is this on FA?

Wait wait wait wait what?

There’s no such thing as copy-editing here. You could email the article to an Indian for a couple of bucks and they wouldn’t even spring for that.

I dunno, you try to buy any .22lr lately?

Copyediting, Jalops!
