Only the fixed parts of the engine, such as the block and head, are cooled directly by the main coolant system. Moving parts such as the pistons, and to a lesser extent the crankshaft and connecting rods, must rely on the lubrication oil as a coolant, or to a very limited amount of conduction into the block and thence the main coolant. High ...
The Magnum V10 was a 488 cu in (8.0 L) V10 engine designed for use in Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500 trucks, which made its debut in 1994 and was produced through 2003. [2] Although Chrysler had already introduced an aluminum block Lamborghini-influenced V10 in the 1991 Dodge Viper , [ 19 ] this engine's roots trace to the genesis of the 5.2 L Magnum ...
The mid-level SLT trim level of the Ram 1500 is no longer available to retail customers, as it is now a lesser-equipped model reserved exclusively for fleet customers. However, the SLT trim level still remains for the Ram 2500, 3500, 4500, and 5500 models, and is available to retail customers.
If the coolant is a liquid, it may boil if the temperature inside the reactor rises. This boiling leads to voids inside the reactor. Voids may also form if coolant is lost from the reactor in some sort of accident (called a loss of coolant accident, which has other dangers). Some reactors operate with the coolant in a constant state of boiling ...
A coolant is a substance, typically liquid, that is used to reduce or regulate the temperature of a system. An ideal coolant has high thermal capacity, low viscosity, is low-cost, non-toxic, chemically inert and neither causes nor promotes corrosion of the cooling system. Some applications also require the coolant to be an electrical insulator.
The surrounding air has low thermal conductivity (conducts heat poorly) meaning it is a poor coolant. Ambient air cooling is sometimes adequate for light cuts and low duty cycles typical of maintenance, repair and operations (MRO) or hobbyist work.
The extra horsepower was claimed to come from the intake ram-air effect available in the SS and WS6 models. In Australia, continuous modifications were made to the LS1 engine throughout its lifetime, reaching 382 hp/376 ft-lb in the HSV's VYII series, and a Callaway modified version named "C4B" was fitted to HSV GTS models producing 400 bhp ...
For 1990 and 1991, the R/V series consisted of 3500-series crew-cab pickups and chassis cabs, which also served as the basis of the Suburban and Blazer/Jimmy full-size SUVs. [ 10 ] For 1992, crew cabs/chassis cabs (and full-size SUVs) moved to the GMT400 chassis, marking the end of the Rounded-Line series after 18 model years.
