- The Most Powerful Naturally Aspirated Engine In A Road Car
Aston Martin's Valkyrie Engine Has 1,000 HP, Revs Past 11,000 RPM!
Recommended Books & Car Products - amzn.to/2BrekJm
The Aston Martin Valkyrie has the highest horsepower naturally aspirated engine in a road car, at an incredible 1,000 horsepower! That's over 150 horsepower per liter, and it revs over 11,000 RPM. It's an impressive V12 engine built by Cosworth, but they're not stopping there. In the Gordon Murray T.50, another naturally aspirated V12 engine is used, this time revving past 12,000 RPM! In this video we'll discuss how these engines work, how they reach such high horsepower levels, and compare them to other engines. We'll discuss the engine structure, displacement, BMEP, RPM, cam gearing, fuel injection, and just how quickly the McLaren F1's successor engine can rev. Enjoy the video!

@@paveantelic7876 Could be a repeat of the famous feat pulled of by McLaren in, what, 1995?
The F1 was a car that could have been driven to the circuit, detuned for the race (to meet regs; I think there was a fuel flow restrictor?), win it, and tuned up again for the drive home. McLaren regretted not actually doing that, because that'd have been the ultimate bragging rights! They had to settle for just winning it.
The fact that the Valkyrie is also a road car first means that the possibility is there. If they can do it, they'd have eclipsed even the McLaren F1. I really hope they give it a go!
Sadly your most likely correct, I suspect majority of these cars will be kept in collections and rarely driven which would be a shame
1000hp naturally aspirated high revving v12..100% has to be the best sounding car in the world
Well... no. To explain it a bit it's because for a few decades now, high end car manufacturers have been designing and tuning their exhaust pipes to have particular and distinctive tones and at times even the cabin itself to produce those lovely roaring engine sounds. It really depends on the exhaust they make for it.
nope, LFA will still take the crown 😅
flat head v8
There are videos of the sound of the engine and it truly sounds glorious.
It has more horsepower than that. It’s a hybrid.
Jason I know you aren't a motorcycle guy, but modern sportbike engines are capable of incredible feats worth discussing (squeezing 300+ horses out of a 1-liter inline-four), I'd love to see a video about one of those.
Easily double if you build it right.
200hp per liter NA over 300 hp per liter boosted (supercharged Kawasaki)
Whoa whoa whoa... you just gloss over “has no flywheel, it just goes straight to the clutch” I need a video on that.
If it's properly internally balanced, you don't need a flywheel for balance. Though I wonder where the starter motor is.
Could be like stop/start tech useing the alternator to spin the engine, or some kind of magnet ring where the fly would be
Scott Kenny , you could technically put it in neutral , engage the clutch and make a starting mechanism on the Trans input shaft
why are none of you that replied addressing the question of what friction surface does the clutch act upon?
@@fucksusanwojcicki Probably another piece of metal. No flywheel means no heavy piece of metal. And the starter motor is probably on the crankshaft.
next generation, we don't sell oil changes, we sell engine changes
That's kinda last generation actually! Back in the day, lots of people just neglected oil changes and drove until they needed an engine rebuild, because that only costed like 100 bucks, maybe less lol!
Tbh that pretty much sums up any German engine designed in the last 10 years! They are so stupidly complex there is little point in trying to maintain them after a certain mileage, you just throw away the whole car!
At the same time though, how many of these cars reach 100,000km? The Mclaren F1 has been around for almost 30 years now and I doubt more than a handful of the production run have even reached 50,000KM let alone 100,000KM.
You'll be surprised but VW TSI allready MAKES YOUR DREAM TRUE! :)

Their 24 racing history would speak to reliability wouldn’t it? Not 200,000 miles but many hard driven miles.
"they made an inline 3 cylinder engine with those high revs to make sure they could make enough power, and then scaled up"
The things I would do for that 250hp 11000rpm inline 3
9u from what Ive been told that 3 cylinder is just their standard test engine.
Just politely ask Aprilia the engine from their RS Cube 😉.
Air taxi range extender...although Moller rotary is smaller, lighter, smoother, cheaper, similar SFC
1.6l 3cyl would be fun, I'd put one in my kei truck
koenigsegg makes a 600hp 3cyl. It is turbocharged though.
Imagine the amount of engineering went into this beautiful piece of art just to sit on a bald millionaire’s garage.
What's wrong with that?
Imagine making a item that is art, a trophy, and an incredibly fun ride. Who cares about it's use, people love different aspects about the same item for different reasons.
The good part is that the money the bald rich guy spent is put back into the economy instead of his assets. More legal money in the economy is always a plus.
it means that the car doesnt need its overengineered engine if its purpose was to be a garage ornament
Just because you are passionate about cars doesn’t mean you are worthy of driving every master engineered vehicle.
Brilliant 👍😎.
Can you do a vid on the “3rd spring” in racing cars. There to counter the stresses of downforce.
You mean the extra tender spring on the suspension? Nothing really special about it. It's just a spring with a rate tuned specifically to the behavior of the aero package to counter sporadic and rapid oscilations
You should make video about some 1000cc suberbike motor. Even stuff that you can ride on street makes way over 200hp/liter and revs up to something like 16 500 rpm
I agree and also 2 strokes.
My old 2 stroke snowmobile N/A is 165 hp at 798cc = 208 hp per Liter. At only 8500rpm

I would love to see a single episode explaining the math inside the intake manifold. Timing the impulse pulses relating to the high pressure zones moving across runners is fascinating.
So they’re both a hugely scaled up motorcycle engine.
EU: "We must downsize and turbocharge for emissions and noise!"
Germany: Produces ridiculously complex 2.0L turbo engines.
France: Stops making engines and focuses on electric.
Italy: Sits in the corner and sulks.

DanM194 America: laughs in 700+hp for under 100k
Edit: lol now 800+ hp
Malusi Mkovane they're downsizing intentionally, so that they're so inefficient that it makes more sense to make them electric. Screw those freaks.
German manufacturer are actually moving away from downsizing. BMW planned to introduce the 3 cylinder into a large portions of it’s models but they are now reversing the trend. Which does not mean that engines are becoming bigger but they will focus on 2L inline-4 cylinders and 3L inline 6-cylinders. Although I hope they keep the 4.4L V8 a bit longer as well.
As far as I remember Italians are still making V12s
pradhuman rehal you are right Ferrari and Lamborghini have V12 offerings
"Bring back the F***ing V12s"
Sebastian Vettel, 2019
70s f1 was the best cause they had v12s but nowadays we have teeny tiny turbo v6 engines
@@romirsarangi4341 We have "teeny tiny 1.6 turbo v6 engines in hybrid configuration" that make way more power than those 70s V12s - and quicker lap times. Those 70s had V12s that had a 3.0 Liter naturally aspirated or 1.5 Liter turbo limit in displacement. And no electric support whatsoever.
The car guy you’re actually wrong the 50’s 60’s 70’s 80’s 90’s 2000’s 2010’s are the best in F1. Cuz all F1 eras are amazing. 1952 brm 1.5L V16 supercharged making 700hp.

Jim Clark won a race by 5 mins in the 60’s...with a far superior car but you guys ridicule and devalue Lewis? Just please enjoy greatness while you’re watching it.
@@fastballfilms4214 I agree
koeniglicher the V6 turbo hybrid doesn't make that much power. In 1986, the BMW 1.5L inline 4 turbo make about 1300hp in qualify, about 900hp in race day. The impressive about the V6 is eficiency and reliability. Mercedes engine has 1:1 ratio between kinetic enegry and heat enegry. In the 80s, a engine usually last only 1 race, now it's 3 engines for 20 races; and it use alot less fuel. Lap time is reduce because of aerodynamic and tyre technology, not thing to do with power.
Your illustrations, and drawings really help for visual learners, thank you!

Facts lmao
Well a 4.0L V12 is a really small engine, I've never seen such small displacement for that amount of cylinders.
@@charlie_mk7.5 Early Ferraris were small displacement v12s. Formula one in the late 60s was 3 liters and many of those engines were 12s and the infamous BRM was 16 cylinders.
The Ferrari F50 had a 4.3 L V12 when it was released 😏
i have 2.0 inline 6
Rotary engine revving at 11,000
Cosworth walks in.. "Hey mate"
To b honest rotarys can rev higher, they just dont allow it bc it’ll shred their particular transmission
Yeah but a rotary fires once per rotor, per rev. A bit like a 2t.
my 50cc 2stroke bike revs 11k ez
@@gerardmontgomery280 A rotary fires 3 times per rotor per rev hence 3.9L
A lot of folks think that rotaries rev very high. That’s not true. It’s combusting 3 times more than a piston engine for each single revolution. Therefore it makes it sound like it’s revving 3 times higher
I remember when Ferrari made that record of 100 HP per liter around 1996 or so. They used 5 valves per cylinder & varied the opening times of the intake valves. (They opened one & then opened the other two afterwards). Honda got very close at 96 HP or so using aluminum pistons.
Honda made multiple variants of the B18c (1797cc) that made almost 110hp/L. Those specific variants came in cars around '96 or earlier. The B16a (1595cc) made 160hp in 1989.
1999 S2000 made 125bhp per liter. It held the record until the Ferrari 458 was launched
Your material is always next level, very interesting & very detailed.

@@KevinTheFirefighter those BMW engines are forced induction though

@@gaspersavle161 all of those examples you mentioned are forced induction and dont rev as high as this and certainly wouldn't last 100,000 km
Clearly a worthy oponent to the TFG
And put it in an Alpine A110 with a manual gearbox
Amazing to think that the suspension supports downforce greater than the payload capacity of many pick ups.
But... do they really need that much down force to keep the traction needed to accelerate??? Or did they over engineer that factor??? They could lighten the weight of the engine a lil more if not...
MRGF78 I think they did it so the car would be able to corner quickly because it would be used more on a track
@@MRGF78 downforce isn't really very important for acceleration (in a straight line), mechanical grip is. Downforce comes in during acceleration in corners, whereas less mass is better. But less mass means less force exerted on the tires by gravity acting on the car forcing it to the ground, and that is why they try to compensate with aero downforce.
@@MRGF78 "Over engineer" wow, talk about Dunning Kruger right here. Do you honestly think you can outsmart Adrian Newey and Cosworth?
I love listening and learning. Nice job
Wow.....the explanation is incredible.....thank you!
"Size does matter... for engines." That gave me a good laugh. 😂
I know it's an extremely unpopular opinion but I've never really liked Aston Martins much but I'm in love with the Valkyrie and it's engine. Amazing looking and impressive engineering.
Imagine if someone put a NOS sticker on the car.....you would have something that is 1500 HP naturally aspirated.
It also has kers so you could use a "LOLGAS" magnet or similar to bump it to 2000hp
Don't forget the flames on the side.
Imagine if someone added water instead of petrol to the fuel tank!
Nos is great but its really cracking things like x10 faster
But then it would it need replacement of the piston return springs and the blinkerfluid would need to be able to withstand a lot more heat because of the muffler bearings
i think the reason why they use port injection is not only the cooling advantage. They also wanted to have a great gas/fuel mixture at high rpm.
Quite impressive if you think that they can pass the crazy emission regulations with that thing :D
I think it has to do with fuel particles falling out of suspension at certain intake charge velocities and sticking to the cylinder walls.
I always had an extreme fascination of the early 90s era f1 cars with the tradition manual imagining how high they rev and how quick it takes to get there, and the drivers pushing the limit while having to take a hand off the wheel... then Gordon Murray makes this masterpiece of a car 🥲
I'm so glad you specified "For engines", I almost lost hope for a second.
You should make a video on intake/exhaust tuning and the math behind it.
It's so entertaining to watch your videos Jason! I wish you were my lecturer in college whilst I was studying Biomedical Engineering, so many headaches would have been avoided :) Keep up the great work!
If you like high rev engines with the best HP/liter ratio, look at motorcycle engines.
Better look at Rotary engines. the race ones make >200 hp/l
mainstream production street leagal emission compliant motorcycles already make 230hp/litre. stock.
@@lucasvanhamburg4937 lol no, they don't. They produce around 200-210 hp/L.. if you remove the exhaust restrictions then it' could go 230 hp/L and technicaly it's still a stock motor but not stock straight from the factorry

I can't wait to hear a recording of this engine revving up! 11,000 RPM!!? Wow.
' makes shrieking noises '
Yeah, just like that
There is a video of the engine running through some gears at high rpm on a dyno..i think it was Mr JWW or Carfection channel
The engine is a masterpiece but an engine like this will need a lot of maintenance, definetly won't be reliable
The most curious thing to me would be the valve spring system/package on those two engines. Very cool. I am glad designers are allowed or should I say, seeking to optimize the efficiency of their new engines vs what we gotten in the past. One thing that has always rubbed me wrong was the regulation of certain systems or components like a cat or egr instead of maybe say using a emissions target and allowing the engineers to design through efficiency, an engine that will do that without said parts. I just feel like regs like that box in our engineers. And I think placing a creative mind in a box is no good. Anyways I am stoked on these developments and would love to hear about the valve package especially the spring.
It's probably a cam directly over a valve bucket, directly over the valve stems, with an adjustment "puck" trapped between the bucket and the valve stem, like on an old Ferrari. Those set ups seem to be good up to at least 11,000 RPMs. Idk, about newer Ferraris - I don't turn wrenches anymore.

Superior insight as always thank
One of the other main differences between port and direct injection is that the piston crown in DI engines has a high swirl feature that creates a rich ball of air near the spark plug. The creates a locally knock resistant mixture for where the flame kernel begins, but keeps the rest of the cylinder lean for efficient and clean burning overall.
One small Question.

Maybe you should debunk/confirm the Devel sixteen engine claiming to make 5,000 hp.
Stewart Morley let me do that for you right now! It's fake.
You really need help with that?
The thing is just two 6.2 ls crate engines gaffer taped together with four 81mm turbos strapped to it. I'm sure if they attached a big enough radiator and coolant pump, and ran enough boost, they could make somewhere near the claimed figure, possibly even without it exploding. That said, it would be completely uninteresting if it ever did work because it will never meet emissions regulations, it will weigh pretty much half a ton (literally) and I'm sure it would never do more than a few thousand miles before needing a complete rebuild. With all of that said, I still doubt it will ever make it out of that dyno room and into a car... It's a load of rubbish
I'm pretty certain it will one day be available to buy in Dubai since there is no such thing as emissions there. If it is a 12.4l engine making 5000hp it'll be a bit over 400hp/l which seems possible to me. However I think the car will need a complete engine rebuild every few hundred kilometers
the engine is real but they will never put it in the car
I've been waiting for this ever since I find out about the car, I knew it wouldn't be long

It's just A LOOOOOT more expensive, especially if anything connected to it has to be replaced / adjusted
Volkswagen tried it with the V10 TDi but they managed to make it unreliable :D
@@pmdinaz you didn't do valve adjustments?
Hey, i love your passion, keep at it ❤️
Mate that's beautiful thankyou
The most important parameter seems to be the rpm. It would be nice if you could explain what design aspects of these engines help them achieve these crazy speeds.
Short stroke limits the average piston speed, so the average con rod speed is limited to the material limits of con rods. That's really the main factor for specific power. Air flow optimisation also helps up to 10% more. Consider the Honda S2000 engine. It produces 125 hp/litre at 8400 rpm at 11.7:1 compression ratio. My engine does the same but at 7200 rpm. I haven't put headers on yet or ported the heads or changed the intake, but it will get to around 150 hp/litre. These engines are often developed on a 1 cylinder test engine. Get one cylinder right and multiply by the number of cylinders you want.
I just looked up the hp/L of a Honda CBR 1000 motorcycle. It’s 172hp/L.
That would make a great follow up video…

michael meece now look up the other brands. Honda is one of the weakest motorcycles in HP
Panigale v4r 237HP
Panigale V4R: hehe boi
@@gianfavero Holy brown shorts! I had no idea
Love all of the techno speck too explain how why, and what brilliant.
What a great discovery this channel is !!

I can't believe you didn't play "Ride of the Valkyries" in the background.

@@steventrott8714 thanks guys the name sounded like a metal band song
Excellent episode as always, hoping you will do a episode on Plasma ignition as used in F1 and it's potential for street use, thanks again!!!
People always ask how it is I got to know so much about how to work on cars and the engineering that goes into them despite not going to school or getting any formal training. I always tell them it's because of the internet like forums and such which is true but it's more specifically videos like these which are well made and enjoyable to watch as much as they are educational. Thank you for making a passion filled hobby of mine so fascinating and accessible
@Engineering Explained: Motorcycle engines, aspirated and with port injection, exists from years and have no problem to do more than 100kkm. In 2004 the Yamaha R1 was 140HP/l. Now they are around 200+HP/l (GSX-R 1000). On 4 cylinder engines made to be as lightweight as possible. Why this is so impressive when it's placed in a car engine is out of my comprehension.
R1s and other modern 4 Stoke bikes are for girls. Honda's NSR 500 2Stoke Race Bike made 200 hp and weighed in at 390 pounds. More hp then and R1 or GSXR or CBR. With half the cc's
the 600cc have even more ridiculous power/displacement. i just checked the suzuki has 125 hp, ~208 hp/l. (the gsxr 1000 doesn't output 200 hp. the gsx **RR** _does_ make 240-ish)
@@GeorgeTsiros Latest Kawasaki 1000cc (street bike) 215Hp :) Actually too much to enjoy it out of the circuit...
The Rotary of the car that won Le Mans 24h in 1992 - the Mazda 787B - makes ~270 hp/l n/a. 700 hp out of 2.6 l at 9,300 rpm. Rpm was limited - at 11,000 it couldve made 920 hp but for reliability they limited it.
Because smaller engines are tons easier to produces, the forces on everything are significantly smaller and thus are easier to build
Please tell us why a V6 with 60º angle is the perfect engine geometry 😉
It's total Dimensions come close to a qube, so its great for the amout of space a certain amount of displacement needs.
360degrees in a circle, divided by 6 cylinders, means that when you have a firing event every 60 degrees they're evenly spaced and therefore most easily balanced. Also works on v12s.
So I'm actually really confused why this cosworth v12 is 65 degrees between banks.
About time really, bikes have been revving around this figure for decades
I enjoy the comparisons to smaller engines using some basic heuristics. Drives the point home that this HP figure is actually NOT insane, just very well engineered to get the system to work in such a modular package.
What's insane is that it's the same overall approach that AMD is using for their graphics and computational processors. Taking a small well functioning core, then scaling it not by size of system but by QUANTITY of systems.
Much appreciated! Resubscribed after unfollowing a few years back ;)
Just remember Jason. Miata bmep is as good as LFA!
That's all that matters!
@@EngineeringExplained when does the vtec kick in yo.
@@EngineeringExplained Did you put a turbo in your Miata yet? gotta give it a little boost you know
I love how Jason actually uses math to do these demonstrations! If you're going to explain something explain all the way and run the numbers.
WOW! I learned a lot.
Wow this is a very clever design kudos to AM.
