Is there any advantage in one over the other on a single or triple groove valve/collet ?

I bet my first wank came quicker than your first mini turbo These new modern turbos with their quick spool up time, would make the competition harder. On 15th Aug, 2011 robert said:

Engineering judgment wold tell me 3 grooves are better. Never had problems with either.

I'm mainly concerned about swirl in the runners caused by the tangential entry. |

Supposedly, the three grooved typs is considered weaker. I have no idea why. If you're not revving 10000rpm all the time, I wouldn't care at all. On 13th Jul, 2012 Ben H said:
Mine gets in the way a bit, but only when it is up. If it is down it does not cause a problem. |

Subarus and LSx engines all use single groove that clamp the valve.

according to most gurus the triple groved ones part company in VERY high reving motors

i think the main reason is high spring pressures and massive cam lifts with 1.5 rockers on on N/A race motors which kills them not realy an issue with turbo motors That's pretty much what i was thinking. It was a friends 1380, 286 cam, 1.5 rockers, big valve head etc which had serious wear issues on the triple collets. But he did rev it very hard. I guess either will do for most Turbo applications then. Cheers guys Phil. :) |
