Internal combustion engines are fairly simply machines. When you break it down, they are nothing more than air pumps. When it comes to making horsepower and torque, the simple fact is the more air you ...

If you are any kind of gearhead or have worked with engines for even a little while, then you are likely familiar with the rules of thumb when it comes to intake manifolds and horsepower. The main ...

Engine science isn’t quite a lost art, but it’s something that is much more understood than it used to be. Now, engines are incredibly talented at everything thanks to innovations in combustion ...

Variable-length intake runners aren't a particularly new concept, but Ferrari's system in its LaFerrari is next-level fascinating. Let Engineering Explained give you the rundown. You see variable ...

In a naturally aspirated engine, as air comes in through the intake and passes through the throttle body, you've traditionally had two setups for what happens next. Using longer, narrower intake ...

Your intake manifold. It takes in air and sends it to your engine's combustion chamber. This is basically the start of the combustion process. After all, you can't have combustion without air.

Internal combustion engines are fairly simply machines. When you break it down, they are nothing more than air pumps. When it comes to making horsepower and torque, the simple fact is the more air you ...

Form and Function - A Look at Intake Manifold Design: Intake manifolds play a huge part of power production, here’s some of the hows and whys Internal combustion engines are fairly simply machines.
