  • Engines live or die on a thin film of oil, but what retains that oil on those critical surfaces? Well, everything has a surface, and the texture of that surface makes a massive difference in how that surface works. Is it too smooth? Is it to rough? Can you engineer an ideal surface?
    Listen in as Dr. Mark Malburg explains how we can see surface textures and then manipulate them for the desired result.

    My local machine shop did my hone & I used Total Seal 46770ST-6 AP rings in my 12 Mustang 3.7 cyclone with Manley rods and pistons. Versus the stock ford piston rings I have 50-75% less blow by. Seriously even at 7500+ rpm minimal. I would go from changing my catch can once a month to every other month. My little 3.7 cyclone made 324 whp through a 6r80, Circle d 3c & 355 gears. I have tons of dyno print outs. Best with stock pistons and rings was 316/306 to the wheel. Manley pistons, Totalseal rings 324/309. Both pistons were 10.5-1 Im a believer in total seal piston rings. Love the Info I honestly purchased my rings because of the info from these videos.

    First,- I have watched and paid attn to almost all of total Seal schooling, - BUT with that in mind EVERY machine shop I have ever asked if they have said equipment to do the above..I get the deer in the headlights look. So my advice Toatl Seal IS,- please give us a list of shops that can do this performance hone job!!!!!!

      Thanks. It’s more about the tools to see what surface was actually created. We routinely see that the same honing process doesn’t always create the same surface finish result…

    How much if any does cylinder wall finish affect near wall detonation characteristics by the amount of oil dilution to fuel condensed at cylinder wall especially in high compression engines will huge swirl from modern cylinder head port designs ?

      It doesn’t affect detonation, but the oil chemistry can affect detonation.

    Thanks again for another great class room segment! I wonder how the USB microscope and profilometer might show the difference between a properly prepared and cleaned bore vs one just wiped down with the red shop towel (seemingly the standard). And what exactly is a lint free cloth... ? Thanks as always😎

      Lint free cloth? We use newspaper or the whitish masking paper with ATF as a bore cleaner after I was taught this by a noted engine builder...Process starts off with HOT! water & Dawn Dishwashing soap....Spray WD40 on machined finishes before drying and after drying then the ATF in the cylinder bores wiped with the paper until it comes out clean with no dark residue.

    Can you make a video with the experts, on which stone grid, speed produce the best results, I understand it depends of engine sleeve/cylinder material, type of ring, ring thickness and ring coating.

    Since the oem's pioneered a new high pressure anode/cathode moly adherence spray procedure on Oil Rings and began SKIPPING the exterior Oil Ring Honing(cut corners/to save money).....
    ALL Cylinder Bore Finishes had to get "rougher' so as the oil rings could basically "grind" themselves in upon fire-up... far moreso than ever before.
    Frigg'in JOKE.... I long for the days when we still had SSOU50 Federal Mogul Oil Rings..... WAY BETTER than any of this Hastings GARBAGE !
