unique looking engine!
-
@ksascor learn to count.... i see 8 cylinders on each bank
-
''Bigger cylinders better fuel efficiency'' - well that's wrong. What is more efficient, 3.0 liter 6cyl twin turbocharged or 6.0 liters V8 naturally aspirated with same producing power??
-
@ksascor 8+8=16 retard
-
I THOUGHT it didn't have any water jackets or oil passages! Guy said it was a prototype. Cylinder size? (spark ignition engines) "Bigger cylinders better fuel efficiency"(less surface area per unit volume to cool) Multiple little cylinders more horses at some high rpm (less inertia, more area for valves/ports) - at least that's the way I heard it...
-
steel or aluminum? Which one is greater?
-
How long was the total time for this project?
-
This is only good for prototyping a block. You could not make a functional water-cooled W16 engine like this. It does not address the water jackets or the location of the oil passages. The only way to build the block properly is by casting. Each block is cast at Salzgitter using the Cosworth electrocasting process.

Talk About Technology! Wonder what kind of servicing that machine needs?
Used to Work with a Subsidery of GM. / HYATT ROLLER BEARING and had tons of Old School Grinding Machines. Wonder what they are like today?

@sablatnic 7:48 -8 cylinders on both sides = w16

it's a W12 not W16

@ksascor No, it is a W16

When the machining started there was no coolant being used. Later coolant was introduced. M8 code if memory serves. Later coolant off. Was the coolant used due to different grade of carbide or for chip removal or to dissipate heat from the aluminum? Also, what grade of aluminum is used for the block? 7000 series?
Many thanks, Max,
