- S5 AFL. 3 - Pantastic News19 februari 202123min.The guys flip things upside down to find out how much power might be left in the oil pan. A number of factors play a part in minimizing turbulence around the crank, but an $1,100 solution may not be worth the cost.Abonneren op discovery+ of Max
- S5 AFL. 4 - Iron vs. Aluminum Heads12 februari 202122min.The guys try to shed light on whether iron or aluminum heads will deliver more power. Aside from weight savings, they'll look at heat retention and its effect on cylinder pressure, then settle things once and for all on the dyno.Abonneren op discovery+ of Max
- S5 AFL. 5 - Advances in Cam Timing5 februari 202119min.Changing a camshaft's installed centerline creates a shift in when valves open and close, so the crew explores how changes to cam timing can help tune a power curve for high-end performance or low-end power.Abonneren op discovery+ of Max
- S5 AFL. 6 - Free Valvetrain Tuning26 februari 202122min.The guys experiment with lash adjustments in an effort unleash some serious (and free) ponies. Specific engine and cam combos can benefit from loosening or tightening, leading to more power and better performance.Abonneren op discovery+ of Max
- S5 AFL. 7 - Single vs. Dual Exhaust5 maart 202122min.The guys determine whether a dual 2.5-inch or a single 3.0-inch exhaust system has more power.

- S5 AFL. 8 - Carb Spacers: Gimmick or Gold?12 maart 202122min.The guys answer the question of whether a carb spacer produces more power. The answer is yes, no and maybe, depending on the engine and manifold combination. A couple extra ponies might be possible with some seriously minimal effort.Abonneren op discovery+ of Max
- S5 AFL. 9 - The Mystery of the Great 4/7 Swap19 maart 202122min.The guys test the belief that a simple swap of the standard firing order can create more power in a 90-degree v-8. They do a 4/7 swap on a big 572 to see if there's more power to be had, or if the the theories are just that: theories.Abonneren op discovery+ of Max

- S5 AFL. 12 - Engine Personality Test9 april 202125min.We dive into one of the most commonly confusing elements of camshaft design: lobe separation angle. A cam's LSA dictates how far apart valve events are, how the engine will idle, where the peak power will live and where the rpm range ends.Abonneren op discovery+ of Max
- S5 AFL. 13 - The Turbo MoHo 4-4-016 april 202123min.Engine Masters explores the myriad gains that can be found for a sickly, low-compression 440 in three stages.
