Me pēhea e kore ai e aroha ki te raumati? Ae, ka wera, engari he tino pai ake te makariri, ā, he nui te wā e hiahiatia ana. I Engine Builder, i pukumahi tā mātou tīma ki te toro atu ki ngā huihuinga reihi, ki ngā whakaaturanga, ki te toro atu ki ngā kaihanga me ngā toa miihini, me ā mātou mahi ihirangi noa.
Ina kāore he pine kimi i roto i te taupoki wā, i te pouaka wā rānei, ina kore rānei e piri pai te kōhao pine kimi ki te pine. Tangohia te damper tawhito ka orohia te waenganui kia taea ai te neke ki runga i te ihu porotaka. Whakamahia hei whakau i te taupoki mā te whakau i ngā pūtu.
Ahakoa he kaihanga mīhini ngaio koe, he mīhini, he kaihanga rānei, he tangata e aroha ana ki ngā mīhini, ki ngā waka reihi me ngā waka tere, kei a Engine Builder tētahi mea māu.

Ehara i te mea ngaro, i ngā pēhanga mura teitei ake, he mea tino nui kia piri te pane o te rango ki te mata o te poraka rango. Nō reira, he mea nui anō hoki te whiriwhiri i tētahi waitohu potae e whakawhirinaki ana koe ki te whakaoti i te mahi.
Ahakoa he taraka mahi tāu e rere ana i te rā roa, he taraka i hangaia mō ngā mahi maha, he mea rānei kei waenganui i tēnā, kāore e kore ka whai hua ngā taraka katoa i tētahi huinga pūtu pane rango hou.
Mō te hoko i ngā here pūkaha pēnei i ngā pou, kua roa rātou e noho ana i te tihi o te rārangi – ARP. Neke atu i te 50 tau a ARP e tū ana, ā, he mea whakamihi ki a ia, kei te whai tonu ia ki te whakaputa i ngā here mahi teitei ake mō ngā tono uaua. Heoi, kua piki haere te whakataetae i tēnei wāhanga i ngā wā tata nei, ā, ko tētahi o ngā kamupene e whakataetae ana mō te wāhi mākete ko Gator Fasteners, he waitohu KT Performance nō Groveland, Florida.
Ehara i te mea ngaro, i ngā pēhanga mura teitei ake, he mea tino nui kia piri te pane o te rango ki te mata o te poraka rango. Nō reira, he mea nui anō hoki te whiriwhiri i tētahi waitohu potae e whakawhirinaki ana koe ki te whakaoti i te mahi. Nō nā tata nei mātou i kōrero ki a ARP mō ā rātou hua poroporo pane, ā, i kōrero anō hoki ki a Zeigler Diesel Performance i Canton, Ohio mō ngā here Gator mō ngā kōrero hou mō ngā whakaritenga me ngā hangarau poroporo o ia kamupene, me ētahi āhuatanga ōrite me ngā rerekētanga e pā ana ki a rātou ki te hunga e whakamahi ana i te hinu diesel.
Ko te tikanga, ko te whakapiripiri ā-hanga o te wheketere i ēnei rā he whakapiripiri kaha tuku-kore. Ko te tikanga o tēnei, i roto i te wā, he tino nui te tūponotanga ka hiki ake e koe te pane o te rango i te poraka, ka pakaru te gasket pane o te rango. Kāore ngā pūtu ARP, Gator rānei e totoro pērā i ngā pūtu wheketere nā te mea kāore he kaha tuku taipana.
"Mō te mahi tīhiera, he pai ake tā mātou mahi i ngā taputapu wheketere mā te 20 ōrau," te kī a Chris Raschke o ARP. "Koinā te arotahi me te whāinga. I hiahia hoki mātou ki tētahi mea ka taea te whakamahi anō. He maha ngā tāngata i kōrero mātou ki a rātou i whakamahi i ngā whao ARP2000 me te 625."
Kei te ARP ngā kete pūtu upoko mō ngā momo miihini penehīni me te tīhiera, ā, ka uru hoki ngā whakapiri Gator ki ngā papaaho miihini tīhiera nui. Heoi, te āhua nei kāore te Gator i te taha penehīni o te mākete, engari kei a ia he kōwhiringa pūtu upoko LS.
Mō ngā miihini tīhiera, kua hangaia ngā pūtu Gator mō ngā miihini Duramax o te tau 2001 tae atu ki te miihini L5P o te tau 2020 kua whakahoutia. Ko ngā miihini Powerstroke me Cummins mai i a Rams i te tau 1989 ki a Powerstroke i te tau 1994 tae noa ki tēnei tau.
"He tino ātaahua te āhua o ngā whakairinga Gator ki taku i kite ai," te kī a Justin Zeigler o Zeigler Diesel Performance. "Kua kite ahau i ētahi atu whakairinga tino ruarua mai i ētahi atu kaihanga. Kua roa ake te whakamahinga a ARP i a rātou i tētahi atu. Heoi, ki taku whakaaro he kōwhiringa pai rawa atu ngā whakapiringa Gator, ā, he kōwhiringa pai hoki. He pai ki ahau te kounga, te utu me te wātea. 'saw.'"
Neke atu i te 220,000 psi te kaha kume o ngā here Gator, ā, kāore e totoro pērā i ngā pūtu wheketere. He mea hanga ēnei ki ngā miro kua hurihia i muri i te whakamahana kia pai ai te kaha o te ngenge. He mea huri kore-pokapū kia ōrite te āhua, ā, kei roto i ia kete he maitai kōroma kua whakamahanahia, he nati 12-ira kua huri whakararahia, me ngā whāriki me te paninga waikura pango kia roa ai te mau.
Ahakoa he waitohu hou a Gator ka taea te tuku hua kounga teitei, kei a ia tonu tētahi o ngā mea tino rerekē o te ARP – arā, ko te wheako.
"Ka whakamahia e mātou he pūwero taipana hei tirotiro i ngā hononga wheketere, me tētahi tikanga whakauru wheketere hei tirotiro i ngā kawenga here ka puta mai i ngā hononga wheketere," te whakamārama a Raschke. "Koinā te mea i hangaia e mātou mai i reira. He taputapu whakamātautau wera anō hoki tā mātou, he oumu me te rūma whakamātautau i roto, ā, ka taea e koe te whakamahana i ngā mea katoa ki te pāmahana whakahaere miihini kia kite ai me pēhea te pānga ki ngā hononga i te pāmahana whakahaere. Ina hangaia e mātou ngā kete hononga mō tētahi tono, me whai whakaaro mātou ki ēnei āhuatanga. He maha ā mātou taputapu i roto i tā mātou pouaka taputapu hei mahi i tā mātou e hiahia ana."
I ngā wā o mua, i whakamahia e ngā whakapiripiri he rauemi 8740 i te 180,000-200,000 psi, he nui atu i te rawaka hei whakakapi i ngā taputapu wheketere. I ēnei rā, ka tukuna e ngā waitohu pēnei i a ARP ki ngā kaihoko he kōwhiringa o ARP2000, Inconel, Custom Age 625 PLUS rānei me te kaha kume teitei ake.
"Mā te rauemi 8740, ka taea e koe te whakahaere i te 200,000 psi anake, arā, tata ki te 38-42 i te tauine Rockwell, ā, koinei te tīmatanga o te ngahau," te kī a Raschke. "Ki te ngana koe ki te hapai ake, ka ngenge ngā pine upoko. Me whiriwhiri e koe ngā rauemi e mahi ana ki te wāhi e tika ana kia pai ai te whanonga."
I tino pai te mahi a te ARP 2000 i te 220,000 psi, ā, e ai ki a Raschke, he pai tonu ngā āhuatanga ngenge me te ngāwari o te mahi i ngā kawenga rawhi teitei ake. Mai i reira, ka tukuna e te ARP āna rauemi tawhito ritenga.
"Ko tētahi o ngā mea pai mō Custom Age ko tōna rauemi he kowiri tira e kore e waikura," te kī a Raschke. "He kaha kume teitei (260,000+ psi) kia taea ai e koe te rūrū me te harikoa tonu. He kowiri tira anō hoki, ko te raruraru o ngā diesel he nui te wera, te makuku, te hauhautanga - koinā anake "Kāore i te rite mō ngā taputapu maitai whānui. Ka tukuna te hauwai e te waikura, ā, ka taea e te pakaru o te hauwai te kino i ngā whakapiri. Ki te wera rawa koe i ngā pou kia kaha ake ai, ka pāngia koe e te waikura i puta mai i te waikura. Kei te ruarua te tūponotanga o ngā raruraru pakaru o te hauwai."
Heoi anō, ehara i te mea ko te rauemi anake te pānga ki te titi e pai ana ki ō hiahia, engari ko tōna rahi anō hoki. I te nuinga o te wā, ka taea te whakamahi i ngā pūtu upoko 12mm mō te nuinga o ngā tono Cummins. Heoi anō, ko ētahi tāngata tino mahi ka whakamahi pea i ngā pou 14mm, ngā pou 9/16, tae atu ki ngā pou 5/8.
"I te nuinga o te wā, ka whakamahia ngā titi 12mm o ō Cummins wheketere katoa," te kī a Ziegler. "I te ao reihi, kua whakamahia tonutia e mātou te 14mm, te 9/16 rānei mō te taipana teitei ake. Ko ngā pūtu upoko o taku motuka reihi ka taipanahia ki te 250 ft.lbs. Ko aua 12mm he 125 ft.lbs. He rerekētanga nui te pupuri, engari he tino rerekē hoki te whakamahinga."
I kī a Raschke he tokomaha ngā tāngata i Cummins i tīmata ki te keri i ngā pou nunui ake nā te mea kāore i a rātou he rauemi pou pakari i mua. Ināianei, nā ARP, kua oti i a rātou.
"Ahakoa kei te hiahia tonu te tangata ki te mahi me ngā poraka, ka whakaratohia e mātou he rauemi taumata teitei ake," tana kī. "Ko tā mātou otinga he hanga i ngā whakapiri kounga teitei ake mō te whakamahinga wheketere. Ki te hiahia koe ki te whakarerekē i tētahi mea, ka mahi pukumahi tā mātou tari tohunga. He maha ngā waka tīhiera rerekē kua mahi mātou. Ka mahi ngā kaihanga i tēnei, hei tauira, ko Shade, ko Heisley, ko Wagler me ētahi atu."
Ahakoa he pai ake te ahua o te rahi nui ake i ētahi wā, he whakatūpato a Raschke e pā ana ki tō pūngāwerewere, tō mahunga, me ngā mea me mahi e koe hei whakamahi i te pīngāwerewere nui ake.
"Mō ēnei papa kore, ka whakamahia e ētahi te 9/16, te 5/8 rānei," tana kī. "I te mutunga, ka taea e koe te whakauru i te pou nui rawa atu, engari kāore e taea e te pakitara rango te tautoko, kāore rānei he wāhi mō te gasket pane rango, ā, ka pakaru te poraka. kāore te pane i te kaha ki te pupuri i ngā rawhi teitei ake. He taumaha ngā kawenga? He maha ngā mea hei whakaaroaro māu, kaua ko te whakauru noa i tētahi mea kaha ake. Me whai hoki koe i tētahi horoi pane me ngā āhuatanga hanganga hei whakahaere i tēnei."
"Mō tētahi gasket maha-paparanga e hokona ana i ēnei rā, me whai hononga e ngāwari ake ana mō te waka rori i tō te waka reihi, nā te mea me te waka reihi, he nui ake te tūponotanga ka wetekina, ka whakatikatikaina i ngā wā katoa, engari me taraiwa te waka rori i ngā rau mano maero. Kāore e taea te whakawhāiti i te urunga o te pane, ā, kāore e taea te whakawhanui me te pēhi."
I whakautu a Zeigler ki ēnei kōrero mā te kī kāore e hiahiatia he pou nunui rawa, he rauemi taumaha rānei i te nuinga o ngā wā.
"Mēnā he taupānga iti noa iho, kāore he mea whakakatakata, kāore he take e pau ai te moni nui," te kī a Ziegler. "Mēnā ka tika te mahi, kāore he raruraru o tētahi huinga pūtu pai me ngā horoi pai me te whakarite kounga."
Pērā i te nuinga o ngā mahi miihini, e 99% te angitu o te mahi. Pērā anō hoki mō te whakamau i te pūtu upoko. I tūtaki mātou ki a Justin i Zeigler Diesel Performance ki te mātakitaki i a Gator Fastener e tāuta ana i tētahi huinga pūtu upoko 12mm mō te miihini Cummins 24 takirere.
I te wā tonu, i whakanui a Justin i a Gator mō tana takai me tana whakaaturanga. Ka tae mai ngā titi Gator me ARP i roto i te pouaka kotahi te rahi, kei roto ko ngā taputapu e tika ana, ngā whakapiri waitohu, me ngā tohutohu tāutanga. Ko ngā titi ARP ka takaihia ki roto i ngā pū kirihou takitahi me ngā nati me ngā horoi i roto i ngā putea kirihou. Me ngā here Gator, ka noho ngā titi ki roto i tētahi pouaka kirihou ataahua, he taupoki kirihou kei ia titi hei tiaki i ngā miro, ā, ka tae mai ngā horoi me ngā nati i roto i ngā putea takitahi. Ko tētahi o ngā rerekētanga nui ko te hinu whakahinuhinu e whakaratohia ana. Ka tukuna e ARP he putea hinu iti, ā, ka tukuna e Gator he ngongo nui o te hinu whakapiri AMSOIL.
I mua i te tāutanga o ngā pou, me muri hoki i te whakaurunga o te taputapu ki roto i ia kōhao, he mea nui kia horoia kia kore ai e raru ā muri ake nei.
"Ko te mea nui ko te arotahi ki te horoi," te kī a Ziegler. "Ina oti te poka i ngā kōhao, me pupuhi ki te hau, ka muru i ngā mea katoa ki te kaihoroi parai kia tino ma ai ngā mea katoa i mua i te whakatakoto i ngā papa ki te mata."
Kei roto i te kete titi Cummins Gator he 26 titi – e 6 titi roa ake i te taha o waho o te pane, e 20 titi poto ake i te taha o roto. Ka pania ia titi ki te hinu whakapiri i mua i te whakaurunga ki te pane me te poraka. He rite ki ngā titi ARP2000, e toru ngā raupapatanga taipana e hiahiatia ana mō ēnei ararika 12mm kia eke ki te 125 ft-lbs. (40, 80 me te 125). I tētahi atu taha, ka eke ngā titi ARP 625 ki te 150 ft-lbs. (50, 100, 150). E whakamārama ana ngā tohutohu o ngā waitohu e rua me pēhea te whakawiri i te titi ki tōna tūranga.
E ai ki te kōrero, nā ARP ngā whakairinga katoa i hoahoa, nō reira me tāuta noa i te 80% o te kawenga, ki te hiahia koe kia piri ake mō te whakawhanui, e wātea ana te 20% o te urunga. Kāore a Gator me ARP e kī atu mēnā ka taea te whakamahi anō i ā rāua pou. Ka taea e Justin te kī atu ki a koe he aha ngā mea ka taea e koe.
"I ētahi tau kua pahure ake nei, he rite tonu ngā pou ARP o taku tarakihana mō ngā miihini rerekē e rima," tana kī. "I inehia e au, ā, kāore he mea i totoro, i rerekē rānei, nō reira ka whakamahia tonutia e au, ā, kāore he raruraru."
E 4-6 hāora te roa o te tāutanga o ngā pou, kei te āhua o te mahi. Mēnā kāore āu ake toa mīhini, ko te mea anake kāore e taea te whakarite ko te tuku atu i te pane kia oti.
Heoi anō, ehara ngā pine makawe i te mea uaua rawa, me te whakatū anō hoki, engari me whakarite tonu kei te tika tāu mahi, nā te mea ka kino rawa ngā hua o te mahi hē.
"Ko te mea nui ko te whiriwhiri i tētahi huinga kua whakamātauhia," te tohutohu a Raschke. "Ka haere te tangata ki te ipurangi ka whiriwhiri i tēnei turbocharger, i tēnei injector, i tēnei pane me tēnei mowhiti ahi, ā, ka whakaranua ēnei mea katoa, ā, kāore tonu e mahi. Ka whakamahia e rātou ngā whakaaro o te tokowhā, tokorima rānei o ngā tāngata rerekē, kaua ki te whiriwhiri i te huinga e tika ana mō ā rātou hiahia. I te wā e hanga ana i tētahi mea, me titiro tonu koe ki te pikitia whānui."
"Me tika ngā mōwhiti, te kawenga rawhi tika, me ngā mōwhiti pane. Kia eke koe ki te mahi tino pai, ka uru koe ki ngā mowhiti ahi me ērā atu mea."
E ai ki a Zeigler, kāore te nuinga o te tangata e hē ana ki ngā wero, engari ki te whakarite i aua wero.
"He mea nui te whakarite kia ma te mata o te papa, inā koa ka whakamahia ēnei horoi maitai whakakikoruatia – me tika te āhua o te mata," te kī a Zeigler. "Me rite tonu te āhua o te mata."
I ēnei rā, tata ki ngā wāhanga katoa o te mīhini he maha ngā kōwhiringa e tukuna ana ki ngā kaihoko. Heoi, ko ngā taputapu mīhini pea tētahi o ngā wāhanga torutoru e tino kitea ana ko te ARP te waitohu whiriwhiri i runga i te kounga, te wheako me te hua. Kāore anō kia tino mōhiotia taua mana, engari he maha atu ngā kaitākaro e uru ana ki te mākete, pērā i a Gator Fasteners, ā, ko ngā take o te mekameka tuku tata nei kei te hoatu i tētahi painga ki ētahi atu.
"Kāore he tangata e āhei te awe i te angitu o te ARP," te whakaae a Ziegler. "Heoi, ki taku whakaaro ka taea e Gator Fasteners te angitu mena kāore e nui rawa te utu. He tika te utu, ā, he tino pai te kounga. Ki taku whakaaro he kōwhiringa tino pai tēnei, kaua ko ētahi mea ARP, nā te mea kei te tatari tātou mō ētahi marama."
I whakaae a Raschke kei te pāngia a ARP e ngā wero i te mea he maha ngā kaihanga e raru ana ki te whakatutuki i te tono. Kei te mahi te kamupene ki te whakaiti i ngā wā tatari me te whakanui ake i te nui o ngā hua, e ai ki tāna.
"He uaua ki te hinga i ngā mea e tukuna ana e te ARP, engari ko ngā Gator Fasteners te āhua nei he kōwhiringa ōrite."
