ʻAʻole ia he mea huna i nā kaomi puhi kiʻekiʻe, he mea nui loa ia e kau pono ke poʻo cylinder i ka ʻili o ka poloka cylinder. No laila, he mea nui e koho i kahi hōʻailona o nā pāpale poʻo āu e hilinaʻi ai e hoʻopau i ka hana.
Inā paha he kalaka hana kāu e holo ana i ka lā a pau, he kalaka i kūkulu ʻia no ka hana maʻalahi, a i ʻole kekahi mea ma waena, ʻaʻohe kānalua e pōmaikaʻi nā kalaka a pau mai kahi hoʻonohonoho hou o nā wili poʻo cylinder.
I ke kūʻai ʻana i nā mea paʻa mīkini e like me nā studs, ua lōʻihi lākou ma ke poʻo o ka papa inoa - ARP. Ua puni ʻo ARP no nā makahiki he 50 a ʻoi, a no kona hōʻaiʻē, ke hoʻomau nei ia i ka hoʻoikaika e hana i nā mea paʻa hana kiʻekiʻe no nā noi koi. Eia nō naʻe, ua hoʻonui ʻia ka hoʻokūkū ma kēia wahi i kēia manawa a ʻo kekahi o nā hui e hoʻokūkū nei no ka māhele mākeke ʻo Gator Fasteners, kahi hōʻailona KT Performance mai Groveland, Florida.
ʻAʻole ia he mea huna i nā kaomi puhi kiʻekiʻe, he mea nui loa ia e kau pono ke poʻo cylinder i ka ʻili o ka poloka cylinder. No laila, he mea nui like ke koho ʻana i kahi hōʻailona o nā headwear āu e hilinaʻi ai e hoʻopau i ka hana. Ua kamaʻilio mākou me ARP e pili ana i kā lākou huahana stud poʻo a ua kamaʻilio pū mākou me Zeigler Diesel Performance ma Canton, Ohio e pili ana i nā mea hoʻopaʻa Gator no nā mea hou loa e pili ana i nā kikoʻī stud a me ka ʻenehana o kēlā me kēia hui, a me kekahi mau ʻano like. a me nā ʻokoʻa e pili ana me lākou. i ka lehulehu diesel.
ʻO ka maʻamau, ʻo kahi mea hoʻopaʻa hale hana i kēia lā he mea hoʻopaʻa ikaika hoʻolei wale ʻia. ʻO ke ʻano kēia, i ka hala ʻana o ka manawa, aia kahi manawa kiʻekiʻe loa e hāpai ʻoe i ke poʻo cylinder mai ka poloka a hōʻino i ka gasket poʻo cylinder. ʻAʻole e kīkoʻo nā bolts aftermarket mai ARP a i ʻole Gator Fasteners e like me nā bolts hale hana no ka mea ʻaʻohe o lākou ikaika torque.
"Ma ke ʻano o ka hana diesel, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o kā mākou hana ma mua o nā lako hale hana ma ka 20 pakeneka," wahi a Chris Raschke o ARP. "ʻO ia ke kumu a me ka pahuhopu. Makemake pū mākou i kahi mea hiki ke hoʻohana hou ʻia. He nui ka poʻe a mākou i kamaʻilio ai me ka hoʻohana ʻana i nā kui ARP2000 a me 625."
Hāʻawi ʻo ARP i nā pahu poʻo no nā ʻano ʻenekini kinoea a me diesel like ʻole, a kūpono hoʻi nā mea paʻa Gator i nā kahua ʻenekini diesel nui. Eia nō naʻe, ʻaʻole like ka Gator ma ka ʻaoʻao kinoea o ka mākeke, akā hele mai me kahi koho poʻo poʻo LS.
No nā ʻenekini diesel, ua hoʻolālā ʻia nā ʻūmiʻi Gator no nā ʻenekini Duramax 2001 a hiki i ka ʻenekini L5P 2020 i hōʻano hou ʻia. Loaʻa nā ʻenekini Powerstroke a me Cummins mai Rams i ka makahiki 1989 a i Powerstroke i ka makahiki 1994 a hiki i kēia makahiki.
"Nani loa ke ʻano o nā kau Gator i hoʻohālikelike ʻia me kaʻu i ʻike ai," wahi a Justin Zeigler o Zeigler Diesel Performance. "Ua ʻike au i kekahi mau stud kānalua ʻē aʻe mai nā mea hana ʻē aʻe. Ua hoʻohana ʻo ARP iā lākou no ka manawa lōʻihi ma mua o nā mea ʻē aʻe. Eia nō naʻe, manaʻo wau he koho maikaʻi loa nā mea paʻa Gator a he koho maikaʻi hoʻi. Makemake au i ke ʻano, ke kumukūʻai a me ka loaʻa. 'saw."
Me ka ikaika tensile ma luna o 220,000 psi, ʻaʻole e kīkoʻo nā mea paʻa Gator e like me nā bolts hale hana. Hana ʻia lākou me nā kaula i ʻōwili ʻia ma hope o ka mālama wela no ka ikaika luhi maikaʻi loa. He ʻāpana waena ʻole lākou no ka concentricity a ʻo kēlā me kēia pahu e komo pū me ke kila chrome i mālama wela ʻia, nā nati 12 kiko i hoʻohuihui ʻia a me nā mea holoi me ka uhi ʻeleʻele oxide no ka lōʻihi.
ʻOiai ʻo Gator ma ke ʻano he hōʻailona hou hiki ke hāʻawi maoli i kahi huahana premium, nele nō ia i kekahi o nā mea ʻokoʻa maikaʻi loa a nui loa o ARP - ka ʻike.
"Hoʻohana mākou i kahi mea hoʻopaʻa torque e nānā i nā mea paʻa hale hana a me kahi ʻano hoʻokomo hale hana e nānā i nā ukana clamping āu e loaʻa ai mai nā mea paʻa hale hana," wahi a Raschke. "ʻO ia ka mea a mākou i kūkulu ai mai laila mai. Loaʻa iā mākou kahi mea hoʻāʻo wela, ʻo ia ka umu me kahi keʻena hoʻāʻo i loko, a hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻomehana i nā mea āpau a hiki i ka mahana hana o ka mīkini e ʻike pehea e pili ai i nā mea paʻa i ka mahana hana. Ke hana mākou i nā pahu hoʻopaʻa no kekahi noi, pono mākou e noʻonoʻo i kēia mau mea. He nui kā mākou mau mea hana i loko o kā mākou pahu mea hana e hana i kā mākou mea e pono ai."
Ua hoʻohana nā mea hoʻopaʻa i ka wā ma mua i nā mea 8740 ma 180,000-200,000 psi, ʻo ia ka mea i lawa mau e pani i nā lako hana hale hana. I kēia lā, hāʻawi nā lama e like me ARP i nā mea kūʻai aku i kahi koho o ARP2000, Inconel a i ʻole Custom Age 625 PLUS me ka ikaika tensile kiʻekiʻe.
"Me nā mea 8740, hiki iā ʻoe ke lawelawe ma kahi o 200,000 psi wale nō, ʻo ia hoʻi ma kahi o 38-42 ma ka unahi Rockwell, a ma laila e hoʻomaka ai ka leʻaleʻa," wahi a Raschke. "Inā ʻoe e hoʻāʻo e hāpai iā ia i luna, e luhi ʻoe i nā pine poʻo. Pono ʻoe e koho i nā mea e hana ma kahi e pono ai lākou e hana."
Ua hana maikaʻi loa ʻo ARP 2000 ma 220,000 psi a, e like me kā Raschke, he mau waiwai luhi maikaʻi a me ka ductility maikaʻi i nā ukana clamp kiʻekiʻe. Mai laila mai, hāʻawi ʻo ARP i kāna mea hana maʻamau.
"ʻO kekahi o nā mea nui e pili ana i ka Custom Age, he mea kila kila ʻole ia e popo ʻole," wahi a Raschke. "He ikaika tensile kiʻekiʻe kona (260,000+ psi) no laila hiki iā ʻoe ke lulu a hauʻoli mau. He kila kila nō hoʻi ia, ʻo ka pilikia me nā diesel, he nui ko lākou wela, ka makū, ka hoʻopau ʻana - ʻo ia wale nō "ʻAʻole like ia no nā lako kila maʻamau. Hoʻokuʻu ka corrosion i ka hydrogen, a hiki i ka hydrogen embrittlement ke hōʻino i nā mea paʻa. Inā ʻoe e hoʻomehana nui i nā studs e hoʻoikaika iā lākou, e loaʻa iā ʻoe ka corrosion i hoʻoulu ʻia e ka corrosion. Ke pāpālua nei ka manawa kūpono o nā pilikia hydrogen embrittlement."
ʻOiaʻiʻo, ʻaʻole wale ka mea i loaʻa ka hopena ma ke kui e kūpono loa i kāu mau pono, akā ʻo kona nui hoʻi. Ma keʻano laulā, hiki ke hoʻohana ʻia nā wili poʻo 12mm no ka hapa nui o nā noi Cummins. Eia nō naʻe, hiki i kekahi poʻe hana kiʻekiʻe ke hoʻohana i nā kui 14mm, nā kui 9/16, a i ʻole nā kui 5/8.
"I ka hapanui o nā hihia, ʻo kāu mau hale hana Cummins āpau he 12mm studs," wahi a Ziegler. "Ma ke ao heihei, ua hoʻohana mau mākou i ka 14mm a i ʻole 9/16 no ka torque kiʻekiʻe. Hoʻopili ʻia nā poʻo bolts ma kaʻu kaʻa heihei i 250 ft.lbs. ʻO kēlā mau 12mms he 125 ft.lbs. He ʻokoʻa nui i ka paʻa ʻana, akā he ʻokoʻa loa hoʻi ka hoʻohana ʻana."
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Raschke ua hoʻomaka ka nui o ka poʻe ma Cummins e ʻeli i nā stud nui no ka mea ʻaʻole i lawa kā lākou mea stud ikaika ma mua. I kēia manawa, mahalo iā ARP, ua hana lākou.
"ʻOiai makemake mau ka poʻe e hana me nā poloka, hāʻawi mākou iā lākou i nā mea kiʻekiʻe aʻe," wahi āna. "ʻO kā mākou hopena maʻamau ka hana ʻana i nā mea paʻa kiʻekiʻe no ka hoʻohana ʻana o ka hale hana. Inā makemake ʻoe e hoʻololi i kekahi mea, hele pupule kā mākou keʻena loea. Ua hana mākou ma nā kaʻa diesel like ʻole. Hana nā mea hana i kēia, no ka laʻana, ʻo Shade, Heisley, Wagler a me nā mea ʻē aʻe".
ʻOiai i kekahi manawa ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ke kani ʻana o ka nui nui, loaʻa iā Raschke nā ʻōlelo aʻo e pili ana i kou poloka, poʻo, a me nā mea e pono ai ʻoe e hana e hoʻohana pono ai i ka pimple nui.
"Me kēia mau hakahaka, hoʻohana kekahi poʻe i ka 9/16 a i ʻole 5/8," wahi āna. "I ka hopena, hiki iā ʻoe ke kau i ka stud nui loa, akā ʻaʻole e kākoʻo ka paia cylinder iā ia, a ʻaʻohe wahi no ka gasket poʻo cylinder, a e hōʻino ʻoe i ka poloka. ʻaʻole ikaika ke poʻo e lawelawe i nā clamps kiʻekiʻe Nā ukana kaumaha? Nui nā mea e noʻonoʻo ai ma kahi o ke kau wale ʻana i kahi mea ikaika. Pono nō hoʻi ʻoe e loaʻa kahi mea holoi poʻo me nā waiwai kūkulu e lawelawe i kēia.
"No kahi gasket multi-layer e kūʻai ʻia nei i kēia lā, pono ʻoe e loaʻa nā mea paʻa e kala aku ma kahi kaʻa alanui ma mua o kahi kaʻa heihei, no ka mea, me kahi kaʻa heihei, ʻoi aku ka nui o kou wehe ʻana a mālama pinepine iā ia, ʻoiai ʻo kahi kaʻa alanui e pono e hoʻokele ʻia i nā haneli haneli mau mile. ʻAʻole hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻopālahalaha i kahi headrest, a ʻaʻole hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻonui a hoʻopaʻa iā ia."
Ua pane ʻo Zeigler i kēia mau manaʻo ma ka ʻōlelo ʻana ʻaʻole koi ʻia nā kui nui a i ʻole nā mea hana kaumaha i ka hapa nui o nā hihia.
"Inā he polokalamu haʻahaʻa ia ʻaʻohe mea lapuwale e pili ana iā ia, a laila ʻaʻohe kumu e hoʻolilo ai i ke kālā he nui," wahi a Ziegler. "Inā hana pololei ʻia ka hana, ʻaʻole pilikia kahi hoʻonohonoho maikaʻi o nā bolts me nā mea holoi maikaʻi a me ka hoʻomākaukau maikaʻi."
E like me ka hapa nui o nā hana ʻenekini, ʻo ka hoʻopau pono ʻana i ka hana he 99% holomua. Pēlā nō hoʻi i ka hoʻopaʻa ʻana i ka wili poʻo. Ua hālāwai mākou me Justin ma Zeigler Diesel Performance e nānā iā Gator Fastener e hoʻokomo ana i kahi hoʻonohonoho o nā wili poʻo 12mm no kahi ʻenekini Cummins 24 valve.
Ua hoʻomaikaʻi koke ʻo Justin iā Gator no kāna ʻūlū ʻana a me ka hōʻike ʻana. Loaʻa nā kui Gator a me ARP i loko o ka pahu like, kahi e komo pū ai me nā lako pono, nā decals branded, a me nā ʻōlelo kuhikuhi hoʻonohonoho. Hoʻopili pinepine ʻia nā kui ARP i loko o nā bushings plastik pākahi a me nā nati a me nā mea holoi i loko o nā ʻeke plastik. Me nā mea hoʻopaʻa Gator, ua waiho ʻia nā kui i loko o kahi hihia plastik nani, loaʻa i kēlā me kēia kui kahi pāpale plastik e pale i nā kaula, a hele mai nā mea holoi a me nā nati i loko o nā ʻeke pākahi. ʻO kekahi o nā ʻokoʻa nui loa ka lubrication i hāʻawi ʻia. Hāʻawi ʻo ARP i kahi pūʻolo liʻiliʻi o ka momona a hāʻawi ʻo Gator i kahi paipu nui o ka momona hoʻopaʻa AMSOIL.
Ma mua o ke kau ʻana i kekahi mau kui a ma hope o ka holo ʻana o ka faucet i loko o kēlā me kēia lua, he mea nui ka maʻemaʻe e pale ai i nā pilikia ma hope.
"ʻO ka mea nui loa, ʻo ia ke kālele ʻana i ka maʻemaʻe," wahi a Ziegler. "Ke pau ʻoe i ka hana ʻana i nā lua, pono ʻoe e puhi iā lākou me ka ea a holoi i nā mea āpau me ka mea hoʻomaʻemaʻe paleki e hōʻoia i ka maʻemaʻe loa o nā mea āpau a mākou ma mua o ke kau ʻana i nā pads ma luna o ka ʻili."
Loaʻa i ka pahu kui Cummins Gator he 26 mau kui - 6 mau kui lōʻihi ma waho o ke poʻo a me 20 mau kui pōkole ma loko. Hoʻopili ʻia kēlā me kēia kui me ka ʻaila hoʻopaʻa ma mua o ke kau ʻana i loko o ke poʻo a me ka poloka. E like me nā kui ARP2000, pono kēia mau alligator 12mm i ʻekolu mau kaʻina o ka torque e hiki ai i 125 ft-lbs. (40, 80 a me 125). Ma ka ʻaoʻao ʻē aʻe, piʻi nā kui ARP 625 i 150 ft-lbs. (50, 100, 150). Hōʻike maʻalahi nā kuhikuhi o nā lama ʻelua pehea e wili ai i ka kui i kahi.
E like me ka mea i ʻōlelo ʻia, ua hoʻolālā ʻo ARP i nā mauna āpau, no laila ua ʻōlelo ʻia e hoʻokomo iā lākou ma ka 80% ukana wale nō, inā makemake ʻoe e paʻa loa lākou no ka hoʻonui ʻana, loaʻa ka cushioning 20%. ʻAʻole ʻo Gator a me ARP e haʻi iā ʻoe inā hiki ke hoʻohana hou ʻia kā lākou mau studs. Hiki iā Justin ke haʻi pololei iā ʻoe i ka mea hiki iā ʻoe.
"I kekahi mau makahiki i hala aku nei, ua like nā kui ARP o kaʻu tractor no nā ʻenekini ʻelima like ʻole," wahi āna. "Ua ana au iā lākou a ʻaʻohe mea i hohola ʻia a loli paha, no laila ke hoʻohana mau nei au iā lākou a ʻaʻohe pilikia."
Hiki i ke kau ʻana o ke kui kui ke hala i 4-6 mau hola ma muli o ka hana. Inā ʻaʻohe āu hale hana mīkini ponoʻī, ʻo ka mea wale nō āu e hiki ʻole ai ke hoʻohālikelike ʻia, ʻo ia ka hoʻouna ʻana i ke poʻo no ka hoʻopau ʻana.
Ma keʻano holoʻokoʻa, ʻaʻole kiʻekiʻe ka makemakika o nā pine lauoho, ʻaʻole hoʻi ke kau ʻana iā lākou, akā makemake nō ʻoe e hōʻoia e hana pololei ana ʻoe i ka hana, no ka mea, hiki i nā hopena o ka hana hewa ʻana ke lilo i mea pōʻino.
"ʻO ka mea nui ke koho ʻana i kahi hui i hōʻoia ʻia," wahi a Raschke. "Hele ka poʻe ma ka pūnaewele a koho i kēia turbocharger, kēia injector, kēia poʻo a me kēia apo ahi, a hui pū lākou i kēia mau mea a pau a ʻaʻole naʻe e hana. Hoʻohana lākou i nā manaʻo o ʻehā a ʻelima paha mau kānaka like ʻole ma kahi o ke koho ʻana i ka hui e kūpono i kā lākou mau pono. I ka hana ʻana i kekahi mea, pono mau ʻoe e nānā i ke kiʻi nui.
"Pono ʻoe e loaʻa nā mea holoi kūpono, ke kaumaha paʻa kūpono, a me nā mea holoi poʻo. Ke hoʻokō ʻoe i ka hana koʻikoʻi, a laila komo ʻoe i nā apo ahi a me nā mea like."
Wahi a Zeigler, ʻaʻole nui ka poʻe e kuhihewa i ka wā e pili ana i nā kui ponoʻī, akā, i kā lākou hoʻomākaukau ʻana.
"He mea koʻikoʻi ka hōʻoia ʻana i kahi ʻili papahele maʻemaʻe, ʻoiai ke hoʻohana ʻia nei kēia mau mea holoi kila laminated - pono ke kūpono ka hoʻopau ʻana o ka ʻili," wahi a Zeigler. "Makemake ʻoe e like mau ka hoʻopau ʻana o ka ʻili."
I kēia lā, kokoke i kēlā me kēia ʻāpana ʻenekini e hāʻawi i nā mea kūʻai aku i nā koho like ʻole. Eia nō naʻe, ʻo ka lako mīkini paha kekahi o nā wahi kakaikahi kahi i maopopo ai ʻo ARP ka brand koho ma muli o ka maikaʻi, ka ʻike a me ka huahana. ʻAʻole maopopo loa kēlā mana, akā ke komo nei nā mea pāʻani hou aku i ka mākeke, e like me Gator Fasteners, a ʻo nā pilikia kaulahao lako hou e hāʻawi nei i nā poʻe ʻē aʻe i kahi lihi.
"ʻAʻohe mea hiki ke hoʻohuli i ka holomua o ARP," wahi a Ziegler. "Eia nō naʻe, manaʻo wau e hiki i nā Gator Fasteners ke holomua inā ʻaʻole lākou e hoʻonui i ke kumukūʻai. Kūpono ke kumukūʻai a kūpono loa ke ʻano. Manaʻo wau he koho maikaʻi loa ia, ʻaʻole kekahi mau mea ARP, no ka mea, ke kali nei mākou no kekahi mau mahina."
Ua ʻae ʻo Raschke e kū nei ʻo ARP i nā pilikia i ka wā e hakakā nei ka nui o nā mea hana e hoʻomau i ke koi. Ke hana nei ka ʻoihana e hōʻemi i nā manawa kali a hoʻonui i ka throughput, wahi āna.
"He paʻakikī ke lanakila i ka mea a ARP e hāʻawi ai iā ʻoe, akā me he mea lā he koho like ʻo Gator Fasteners."
