  2. Ford small block engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_small_block_engine

    The engine uses a separate aluminum timing chain cover, which differentiates it from the later Ford 335-series engines (informally referred to as "Cleveland") that use an integrated timing cover. All Ford small-block engines use two-valve-per-cylinder heads, with "2V" and "4V" designations indicating the number of barrels (or venturi) in the ...

    Variable exhaust valve timing (the LW2 engine only had variable intake valve timing) Specially-developed fuel injectors. New pistons with pentroof-style centre-domes and valve eyelets for a higher compression ratio of 12.2:1 (compared to 10.2:1 for the dual fuel engine). A new fuel rail and a new LPG fuel filter. Applications:

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holden_Commodore_(VT)

    The Holden Commodore (VT) is a full-size car that was produced by Holden from 1997 to 2000. It was the first iteration of the third generation of the Commodore and the last one to be powered by a locally made V8 engine (1998).

  5. Northstar engine series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Northstar_engine_series

    Although it has a 90° V-angle like the Northstar, the engine block was engineered from scratch, so bore centers are different. It has chain-driven dual overhead cams and four valves per cylinder, but is an even-firing design with a split-pin crankshaft similar to the Buick 3800 engine. The LX5 displaced 3.5 L; 211.9 cu in (3,473 cc) and ...

    Before electronic crank sensors were available, the distributor would have to be manually adjusted to a timing mark on petrol engines. The crank sensor can be used in combination with a similar camshaft position sensor (CMP) [ 4 ] [ 5 ] [ 3 ] to monitor the relationship between the pistons and valves in the engine, which is particularly ...

    Still, the long drive chain/belt of an OHC is going to wear out faster than the short chain/gears of the OHV system (despite the latter having more parts). And that means either expensive/neglectable maintenance or (in the case of belts) the risk of sudden failure with no warning. TomRawlinson 17:51, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

  8. Transport network analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transport_network_analysis

    This class of problems aims to find the optimal location for one or more facilities along the network, with optimal defined as minimizing the aggregate or mean travel cost to (or from) another set of points in the network. A common example is determining the location of a warehouse to minimize shipping costs to a set of retail outlets, or the ...

    [190] Analysis of the carbon cycle disruptions caused by the impact constrains them to an interval of just 5,000 years. [191] Models presented at the annual meeting of the American Geophysical Union demonstrated that the period of global darkness following the Chicxulub impact would have persisted in the Hell Creek Formation nearly 2 years.
