    There is also the history of the beginning of Chevrolet and General motors in this episode =)

    Hi Jay! Thanks for another awesome engine episode! Chevrolet had a 6 for so long no one seems to remember the 4! Glad you are going to cover the Copper-Cooled Chevy in a future episode! I am fascinated by that one! You might say it was GM's Edsel! Charles Kettering was heavily involved in that project. If I am correct, one, if not the only Copper Cooled Chevy is in the collection of the Henry Ford! Yes, Ford got their hands on one, whilst the rest got pushed into a lake! (According to legends.) WYR#1 I like that 1928 Truck!! It's Cool! #2 I like that 1923 Chevy coupe.

    • @61rampy65
      @61rampy65 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      I think you are correct on all counts! I have heard that Alfred P Sloan had them all dumped in the Detroit river. Ford probably bought one as soon as they came out, just so he could see what his competition was doing.

    @P_RO_ 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    Chevy gives you advanced OHV technology 😁 (but we went cheap on the bottom end bearings so we could do that) 🙃 To be fair I'm not sure shell bearings were around when they first designed this engine and most everyone was using poured babbit bearings too 🤠 Long stroke engines may not rev well but in return they do extract every bit of combustion pressure from low revs, making them feel torquey which to most people will feel faster, which was a good thing with the slow-burning low-power fuels they had then. It got Chevrolet ahead enough in the game to meet Ford, but it was the later "stovebolt 6' that cemented Chevy's permanent prominence.
    WYR The '28 truck is cool but I like the '20 Phaeton better. And the '23 Coupe looks sporty for it's day.

      Good comment, but low octane fuels burn faster, not slower. When fuel burns fast, it is more like an explosion, which results in pinging. So, the higher octane burns slowly, allowing higher compression and/or more spark advance, which is where extra power comes from.

      @@61rampy65 Thanks, it's now edited. it's not 'octane' my mind was reaching for when I wrote that, but a similar term which describes fuel refinement which won't come to mind. I should not get in such a hurry writing things sometimes...

    Car choices: 1928 Chevy, 1927 Chevy.
    My uncle (1910-1988) liked 4 cylinder Chevrolets, but he always said they ruined Chevrolet when they went to 6 cylinders. Then the Ford V8's came out in '32, and he was totally soured on anything else from then on, and saw nothing as any good but a Ford V-8. When I was a kid, I recall him saying, "I'd get a V-8 lawnmower if they made one!"

    A 25 Chev model K 4dr was abandoned here for failure to pay its bills . They seem to be of little value I feel because of the extensive use of wood in Fishers body's. At one time the frames and 4 cylinder engine was popular with dirt track racers. Gives me thoughts of another project

      "Yes, but it's a dry cold, it doesn't bother you as much," said the Minnesotan. One of the other passengers was from Arizona "Gets really hot in Arizona, so I've heard," said one of the others. "Yes, but it's a dry heat," said the man from Arizona. "It doesn't bother you as much." It so happened the third passenger was from Florida. "Rains a lot in Florida," said one of the others. "Yeah, but it's a dry rain, it doesn't bother you as much." said the Floridian.
