[@nilsivanson4161]

The volume on 15:00 while speaking feels less invasive. But I don’t get it why there has to be music. 🎶 i watch Mx videos and it’s the same there. Now I do love this channel but when Mx video has music I just turn off the video. I feel disturbed. Maybe the problem lies with me but I appear to be in good company. Love these videos.

Be careful but what’s coming out of blow off valve could possibly ignite. It’s air and fuel being sprayed almost in your face. Don’t want you to get hurt. Find a way to pipe it either outside or some where that if it would ignite will not burn you (most importantly) or your garage. Keep up the great work

100% he's back. His uniform in place, and that sit.

[@Mad4Tracks1]

I highly suggest you calibrate the Dyno correctly from now on, since you switched to being more systematic with everything. I refer to the intro at 21 seconds Two ways to do this, 1) You hang the calibration weight (the brake rotor and stuff) perfectly horizontal on the axis of the bearing. This way it is easy to measure the length of the moment arm. Or 2) keep the bracket as is, but only measure the horizontal distance from weight to the bearing center. The moment arm must be horizontal because gravity only works vertical and thus perpendicular to the moment arm Maybe your are correctly doing this, but you have done some many alterations already that it may be good to check. It is just basic trigonometry. I hope I don't come across as rude but I have seen you doing this for so long now, I really enjoy watching you and I sincerely hope you'll be successful in this journey :)

[@HulluJanne]

Nice to see just small steps.

[@bigaldart89]

Alex, you probably know this, but I will remind you anyway. You have a positive displacement blower. Because of this you can easily calculate airflow at any rpm. Since all air passes through your blower you can then calculate the fuel flow you need. I don't know how much boost you are making but as a guide, for straight methanol you need A/F around 3.9 below 20 psi as a starting point, for higher boost start at around 3.5. You will be pretty close and able to tune from there. With Nitromethane up to around 25% you need to be LEANER than straight methanol for best power. After that you need to be RICHER. As the percentage grows you need much more fuel, it is not linear. Work in LBS of Air, LBS of Fuel as Nitro is much denser than methanol. Volume won't get you very far. Loving the journey and best wishes for the Bonneville exploration.

[@TheNumbers400]

The Brute Force engine fits in your carry on. Get it done and put it into your next land speed bike.

[@mtreis86]

That blow off valve needs its own exhaust ducting, big puffs out of it. We sure know its working now.

[@finnsk3]

Blow off valve shouldn't be opening really at all unless he dumps the throttle.

[@jamesabbott5892]

Alex consider making the ignition timing adjustable while the engine is running that way you can fine tune while on the dyno or on the bike. Try to keep it as simple and light weight as possible

[@bruhmandude555]

Cant wait to install this inside of a go kart and drive this on an interstate

[@scrapeteel920]

If i show up in August id love to talk Chainsaw engines with you.

[@XelaSnikliw-fg8wu]

Rotax pretty much has the best designs for two strokes. Direct injection is paramount. The less rotating mass you have the quicker it'll be. Ported cylinder and crankcase. A tuned pipe is really important. A sliding pipe could give you better bottom and top end combined. Matching the air flow to the correct carb takes allot of science for a one off engine.

[@acontadoquim]

Attention to those ebay manual boost controllers the T that comes with the kit never works, you just need to use the boost controller itself one hose comes from the boost pipe to the controller the outlet goes to the wastegate actuator, and the other hole in the controller is for the bypass.

[@michaelfowler8289]

[@user-rk1bf4eh2p]

You might look into checking your back pressure on your exhaust system

[@mikeford5106]

I doubt very much that the brake disc and caliper is "man enough" for the job, perhaps using a continous cooling water mist / spray may help ? ... perhaps adapting a 12v. car screen washer pump and some form of misting head outlet ?

[@aka5.45]

Вы своего рода гений!

[@finnsk3]

You want to run a vacuum line to the top of the blow off valve from between the carb and blower. When you cut the throttle, the vacuum pulls the valve open. They work better with a blow through setup with a vacuum hose from after the carb to the top so that under throttle the possitive pressure helps hold the valve down then vacuum pulls it open when you shut the throttle. I run 40psi of boost on my daily driver and I blew the rubber diagram apart in my Turbosmart 50mm race port so the boost wasn't helping to hold the valve closed and I could only get to around 25psi just off the spring. tbh, I wouldn't even bother running a BOV because on a draw through carb setup I can't think of a good way to plumb it if you want to run high boost. Say you want to run 40psi, you are going to need a spring that will hold 40psi, then when you close the throttle, the carb is going to pull say 5psi so the blow off valve will open and vent down to 35psi then close. This is all because you can't run the boost to the top to help the spring stay closed because the boost doesn't stop when you cut throttle. Maybe someone knows a better way to plumb it? You could do it the way I have my blow off valve setup and that is electronically controlled with a solenoid valve. I run boost pressure to the top of the BOV then when the controller detects a sharp decrease in throttle it opens a valve venting the top of the BOV. All of this sounds overly complex for a roots blower though, I would just remove it entirely.

[@doncarlson8391]

Im curious about your calibration procedure. Those angles and distances from the pivot point to the load cell are interesting. Can you hang increasing weights and the load cell readings match the dead weight?

[@andersgulliksen9544]

Tror du en 2 sylindra motor kunne vert mer effektivt? altså 25cc per sylinder, med stor boring i forhold til "stroke" som formel 1 bilene har for å potensielt klare veldig høyt turtall. Vet at det er noe helt annet en det du er ute etter nå, tenker bare på potensialet.

[@sixdegrees6434]

The disc brake dyno idea will cause you a lot of pain. Please don’t persist with it. They were tried very briefly in the dawn of dynamometers and were quickly replaced with eddy current and water brake. Disc brakes are not designed for long duration, high load. It will get very hot, very quickly (as you witnessed), the pads will glaze and never give an accurate measurement. Please trust me on this one, you will tear your hair out.

[@johnpezaris6982]

AGREED!! We do not need Alex getting stuck in a rabbit hole of debugging yet another dyno again.

[@aroncharlwood1777]

We need a 500cc version of this when you work out the magic formula

[@imadethisforposts]

I may be wrong, but I think your Dyno calibration will be off if the arm you hang the weight off of isn't perpendicular to gravity. I think the arm hanging down at an angle would cause the load cell to read lower than reality as it's split between a vertical and horizontal component. Love watching your work. Bonneville 2024!

[@michellatour150]

If those are VForce 3 reed cages, on dirt bikes they are often source of air leaks due to warped mating surfaces.

[@toralfcross3819]

I wonder if you were to use a radio control servo to have precise control over your throttle control while mounted to the dyno would that be a helpful suggestion to make testing easier for you? I think you could have a functioning servo throttle control if you get a rc reciever battery pack, one high torque servo and a servo tester with sweep test dial.

[@kz6fittycent]

What if you had a water bath beneath the rotor, so it was able to remain cooled while you're testing? It should help with mitigating the heat and although you're going to get steam, it's probably going to be a little more consistent than a spritz of WD-40.

[@andypughtube]

I did like the cylindrical rotating exhaust tube idea. It's worked well in steam engines for hundreds of years, and in a few experimental 4-strokes. 2-strokes are like steam engines, right? :-)

[@landerstudios143]

Awesome 😎

[@willemgjaltema2996]

When you can make a system like a lowman diesel than you can have low compression by low rotasion and high compresion at high rotasion when the engion os warm .

[@yvinddahl1303]

[@balja2533]

Im not being an asshat against you. but have you ever calculated the maximum fuel and air up to displacement ratio ? love this channel btw

[@cryptsys]

if thats the amazon supercharger with plastic blades i would advise you to pull it apart and sand cast replacement fan blades. the plastic ones from this and the bigger one on amazon shatter and blow up engines.

[@giscardrutten6896]

For you to reach your power goals, you’ll need to start recording the configurations of parts and for each change whether the change was positive, neutral or negative, together with the actual power number. At each point, neutral means that’s the maximum power at that configuration and different variables need to be considered to make more power. It will also allow you to go back to a base configuration that was successful, and if that configuration doesn’t give you the same result as previously recorded, it means something is broken/worn etc.. it will also allow your loyal audience to suggest specific changes as the too have a record of what the engine is made up of. Definitely time for the new dyno to get some consistency in the numbers, as without it, will be difficult to decide what the changes you make actually mean. Anyway, loving the progress!! .

[@nerd1000ify]

I think you should recirculate anything that comes out of that blowoff valve back into the intake. It will save you a heap of fuel, and give enrichment at higher speeds that at worst you just adjust for with the jetting.

[@mikedoblo4782]

is it a dump valve that works of vacuum or pressure. you can put stronger springs in some

[@rfiskillingussoftly6568]

Get er done man, get er done😊

[@markregler2164]

[@andrewsmart2949]

well your going in the right direction,but take a leaf out of detroit diesels book and wet sump it and have no transfer in the crankcase and no reeds as the pistion itself blocks off the ports

[@RIPPERTON]

Are the reeds even closing with all that boost. The petals are just being held open off their seats.

[@goranamcoff6235]

That mixture open-loop bleed is just power and fuel wasted. Ideally, you want to re-circulate the boost bleed between blower intake and the carb (recirculating it into carb intake will cause it to measure same air twice and go rich).

[@larrythompson2967]

You may want to try some dry graphite on your disk brake? No smoke, stays on, and loves the heat.

[@NZrider100]

You don't need lubricant on your dyno brake. You don't need to reduce friction, you need to remove heat from the disc faster. Can you put a makeshift water bath on the bottom half of the disc with a shroud to capture and duct water spray back into the bath?
