Research projects at dAM range from small engine exhaust emissions reduction
to jet engine fuel nozzle development for thrust and fuel economy. Outside
projects have included fuel additive R & D for fuel and lubricant additive developer,
GTA Technologies.
CAD enables ideas to be explored and realized with reduced development time and less wasted materials. Head modifications of the Ford Project were developed in CAD.

Combustion and its optimization start with the spark. Spark plug holes can be relocated such that ignition occurs at the geometric center of the charge to ensure a quick, uniform, powerful burn.

Tolerances suitable for production engines can be less than optimal for high performance engines. Realigning valve lifters to tighter tolerances can provide benefits of more power, better wear characteristics, lower componant failure rate.
