I’ve thought about the access to the cam gears that way. Welding 3 small tabs across the top to try and pinch them somewhat together with a gasket of some sort between the two.. (though I’ve never cut one open because I thought the covers were magnesium & to see the actual thickness of the material to potentially create a seat for a custom gasket)
Great stuff, as always, thank you! One question though; I know it wasn't a paid advert but, is it possible you could plz link us to the heat-shielding used in the video? Both the aluminized/insulated product and the 2-piece turbo insulator?
I think that an engine must be designed arround the cam...the cam Will give the form of the engine, like the turbo size , inlet and exhaust manifold selection.
Not sure you do always really lose out with LS cams as some of the stock stuff is so horrifically under cammed that there are gains to be had literally everywhere. The point you make is bang on though, if a bit more cam is good then surely a lot more must be better right? Erm no, not if you value drivability, emissions & fuel economy plus durability of your valvetrain!
Come ON! Intro to engine protection strategies?? Nearest thing possible to ZERO content on that, just adverts. HP has some great content but this is not it.
Hey William, sorry about the confusion. This is a quick update that came before members webinar '264 | Engine Protection Strategies - Adaptronic'. It's not the actual webinar. We have always done these updates, and in the past we just did them live and that was that, you saw them or you didn't, but a while ago we started uploading them here instead so more people could catch them given not everyone watches the members lessons live. Here is a link to webinar 264, and I have added some others for you too that are in the webinar archive as well: www.hpacademy.com/previous-webinars/264-engine-protection-strategies-adaptronic-2/? Note even if you are using a different ECU, you will still gain value from much of the knowledge discussed in these, and there will be some crossover between them too - Taz. www.hpacademy.com/previous-webinars/253-engine-protection-strategies-haltech-elite/? www.hpacademy.com/previous-webinars/042-configuring-engine-protection-strategies-using-a-motec-m1-ecu/? www.hpacademy.com/previous-webinars/039-configuring-engine-protection-strategies-using-an-aem-infinity/? www.hpacademy.com/previous-webinars/036-features-that-can-protect-your-engine-with-the-link-g4-plus/?
