Automotive Legends Pete Aardema and Kevin Braun build some of the most bizarre internal combustion engines om the planet. Pete at 80 years old has spent the greater part of his life turning wrenches and building performance motors for a wide variety of vehicle applications. Over the last 40 years, Pete’s love for performance and speed has developed into a personal challenge for him to design and manufacture his own performance cylinder heads and motors proving exemplary results. While 99% of automotive enthusiast purchase bolt on performance parts for their vehicles, this is not an option for Pete and Kevin. Pretty much everything in Pete's garage is self-designed. Kevin is the master machinist and makes everything on the lathe and mill just as people did in the early years of transportation technology. In this video you will see and hear the V12 fire up and run after a full rebuild. This video includes shop talk with Pete and Kevin as how they look at ways to improve intake airflow at 250 MPH. You can see the V12 in action here at 279 MPH at Bonneville last summer. • Bonneville Salt Flats ...

I was taught to do that by my grandfather in the 70s when I started up a fresh engine and it had a miss . I was dumbfounded at first but when he explained it it made perfect sense and point to the cylinder that had a bad plug wire. He told me they did it back in the 20s to determine which cylinder was lame. Never forgot that trick and it was a treat to see that being used here.

The method is different, but the results are the same - one running colder, or if lean, running hotter (so the water boils off faster) is the one to investigate - did the same with a junkyard 3.3 in to my Voyager, to find a bad injector with the thermometer, exhaust was cool, plug coated in soot, injector was stuck open. Replace and runs like new.

I believe they are 100% on track, in their thinking the air is stacking at the back of the scoop. The answer isn't just to run the back 2 holes richer (actually less lean), it's to tighten the difference in air being fed to between all the 12 holes. 1) a driver or ecu (or timer) controlled flapper on the back of the plenum. If you wanted to do a bit of math, you could rig that trap door with a spring and not have to think about it again, but I'd rather it's opening (and amount of opening) is a known and logged event. 2) you could have 2 intakes/plenums to feed the front 6 and back 6. A little baffling is fun to play with too, but it's such a dynamic environment in a intake, that it's a ton of chasing.

I send a few ideas but I figured that they wouldn’t be taken seriously. These guys are “old school” and good at it. Unsolicited ideas are what they line the garbage can with. I was thinking along your lines. I was surprised they didn’t have a knock sensor hooked to a fuel cut off. That’s been around for 20 years. Save a lot of racers a lot of money on engine rebuild. O2 per cylinder is good during testing. I also heard of a BMW or a Mercedes that had a sensor in the front balance wheel the measured the impulse from each cylinder firing. I have never found an after market part that does that. The sensor would have to communicate wirelessly and power would have to be generated by motion of the balance wheel and a magnetic field. Crazy. I want one. The question is “so what do you do if you get a slightly out of normal cylinder”, answer, “ sell the motor, do over”.

An EGT probe on each pipe like an airplane engine with a JPI or EI readout would tell a lot. Then you could jet the fuel at each injector to compensate for the airflow at speed and have onboard adjustable fuel pressure for density altitude. Airplanes have been doing it for years.

For the ram air pressure differential issue, they could correct the mixtures using the ECU but the problem is that the front of the engine would essentially be starving of air at high speed and therefore not making optimal power. They really should shoot for equal power from all cylinders. One possible solution would be to have individual, curved intake runners for each throttle body, which all run out to the forward-facing scoop opening, essentially subdividing the opening into 12 equal areas for equal air in each cylinder. Turning the scoop backwards would not only waste the precious ram air effect, but would most likely actually draw some vacuum on the intake.

@recoilrob324 2 роки тому
Wideband sensors don't play nice with race gas...at least for very long. EGT thermoprobes don't care about what fuel you run, and for what these guys are doing would make the most sense. That would have clearly shown the lean cylinder before it melted had they been running EGT's. And coming from the aircraft world....we've figured out how to diffuse inlet air a LONG time ago. You don't need to 'reinvent the wheel'....just look at other disciplines who deal with high speed air flow and see how they handle it. The inlet area needs to be able to feed the motor, but then you need a gradual increase in area to slow the air down and increase the pressure (Bernoulli's Law at work). It's not the speed of the air coming in that makes the power...it's the increase in pressure. Slow moving high pressure air can then be fed equally across the motor with simple ducting.
@calvinevans8305

6:45 don't put a relief in the back of the scoop, you will loose power at speed. Put a separator, or splitter inside the scoop to give an even amount of air to the front and back six throttles. Or two scoops, one for the front six and one for the back six throttles.
@PiDsPagePrototypes
@PiDsPagePrototypes 2 роки тому
Yup! Need to even out the pressure, so all the cylinders can make the same power. Either baffles and separators inside, or a variable restrictor that keeps the pressure constant in the whole of the plenum, and can vary according to vehicle speed and throttle loads, like the cone in front of the SR-71's jet engines.

Think of this from a different point of view. These old guys probably grew up playing with junk yard cars like I did. I'm a little older than they are, and spent much of my teen years with my Chicago buddies building junk yard cars for the drag strip. What that means is that we bought everything including the car at one of our many auto junk yards. Why...because we had more skills than money. I ended up moving on and became an engineer after serving in Vietnam. My point is this. These fellows have taken their skills to a whole different level. Just like fine carpenters and other craftsmen and ladies. My worry is that with few exceptions, there are no more junk yard car opportunities for young folks. And I mean that as an analogy to so many other hands on crafts. Just like there are very few apprentice offers to pass on the old skills that built our nation. Having said all that, these guys rock. That's for sure.

@davidstephens1092
@davidstephens1092 2 роки тому
In relation to the possible leaning off of the rear cylinders. It could be worth looking at the air intake system that was used on the concorde. Originally they had a problem that the jet engines were only suitable for an air intake speed well below that intended flying speed. They fitted the big boxy intakes that had a baffle system inside which slowed the air down and also increased the pressure inside. This gave the engines more power and is said to be the main reason that the concorde is still the only plane to have flown at Mach 2 without after-burners. Very different engines I know nut if you can control what the air is doing inside the intake scoop you may be able to get an even supercharged effect on all 12 cylinders. Just an idea.
@snivesz32

Gotta love the older guys...Not afraid to jam their fingers into moving pulleys,over running throttle bodies or hot headers!! And dont forget about the 5 gals of race gas balanced between 2 angry pipes!!

I think doing some wind tunnel testing with your air box to create baffles to even out the flow/pressure, and then incorporate a pressure sensor that adjusts your fuel mixture. This would allow you to take advantage of the vehicle speed.

Pete and Kevin are always improving and they have several engine builds all different going on in the shop. The V12 only ran one season and Pete and Kevin are building the 2 liter , as well as the Moser and considering now a possible 3rd V12 build. Thanks for watching! Greg

I’d love to hear how they created this motor. Why they chose V12 config, what injection system they chose and so on. 920 horses from 369 inches is awesome. Hats off to these guys!

I love the video but was hoping to see how the engine was made or a full build from the block on up. The idea of a homemade v12 is interesting and I wanted to see what parts were hand made and what is using off the shelf stuff

Very cool very fun stuff and would love to do welding for this kind of stuff . I’m an aviation welder by trade. Now it could be possible to put stator veins in your scoop and then trim or adjust them accordingly so all cylinders are getting the same air pressure through the intakes . Flow and pressure are like volts and amps . Love the project

Thank you Dano, They have added a baffle above all 12 throttle bodies inside the air box. It should be good the go now!.
