Woo! Sodium filled valves! Posted by PaulS [Email] (#676) [Profile/Gallery] (more from PaulS) on Tue, 19 Jun 2012 20:36:44 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
About a month ago I was reading about the engine in the new Viper and the article mentioned that they needed to add sodium filled valves to the new engine. Then just the other day I was reading about the Corvette engine and it said the following:
"The small block’s success reminds us that simple, elegant solutions often set the highest standards. With technologies that include aluminum block and cylinder heads, a forged steel crank, forged titanium connecting rods, titanium intake valves and hollow-stem sodium-filled exhaust valves, Corvette’s handcrafted LS7 and LS9 V8 engines deliver massive output in a compact, efficient package."
Saab has had them for how long? Back to the 99 I think.
