Messagehi, i finally put some grooves in the chamber , from the edge of the
head gasket to just about right up to teh spark plug hole on teh magna head.
i used one of those real thin cutting blades on a grinder , and made the
depth about 2 mm.
assembled it all back to gether , i havent done a mileage test ( cant compare
to what it was before, cause i didnt check fuel consump...), but one thing is
: i have put the magna in fifth gear , , and the lowest speed i could get
without it violently chuggin is about 20 kph, i then put foot flat on the
accel pedal, and i could not get it to ping, it was a pretty warm day too,
even tried it with a car trailer attached and still couldnt get it to ping.
maybe if someone has a 2.6 carby 5 speed magna they could do the same test
and see if it pings ???

True, true...
But it's a Magna, nobody cares about a magna. Couldn't think of a more worthy
test mule. :)

Well, it might work one on engine, but unlikely to get any real benefit on
most.
Just read the ad..... horse pucky!! Like the old miracle elixir
salesman on the back of a wagon in the 1800's.
Just like bolt on this different air cleaner, and get another 10 miles per
gallon.
If there was any viability to this, the auto manufactures would be all over
it.
Mileage is one of the large selling points today.
Having a patent often means that the patent examiner was not competent to
evaluate the patent application.
Having recently gone through a patent process (and gotten it), I can say
from personal experience
that the examiners are clueless. The questions asked, and other existing
patent items cited, were irrelevant to the application.

hi, i had a look at the site.
i have just finished rebuilding a 1987 magna.
i put a groove from the sealing ring of the head gasket in the head ,
to within about a inch from the spark plug , as per picture..., with one of
those really thin angle grinder cutting blades, ... alas , i forgot to take a
pic....... should have it running in a few days..........
the thing is i didnt do too much driving , before i rebuilt the engine.
but as far as i can remember, it went normal....
i will do a few tests once i get it running and see what fuel
consumption i get i.e above normal , see if it pings at 20 kph in 4th or
5th gear... etc....

I just came across a very interesting theory.
Basically the idea is that you cut a groove into the squish area of the
head on an engine, and it improves horsepower, torque, kills detonation, etc..
Read about it here:

Anybody want to try it and let me know the results??
