Nobuhiko Kawamoto opened his mouth, but he was speechless.

Fernandez is right, this is his own business, after he paid a deposit to Raymond, these 10 Honda CBX1000 are Fernandez's personal property, not to mention that he dismantled the engine and rebuilt it, even if he finds a steelmaking furnace and throws it into it, it melts into a pile of metal lumps, that is also his freedom, the laws of the United States support him to do this, and he has no way at all, but ......

You are really ignorant and fearless, do you think that putting two engines into one is building blocks?

Nobuhiko Kawamoto couldn't help it: "Mr. Fernandez, how sure are you?" After speaking, without waiting for Chen Geng to speak, he said anxiously: "Please don't think too much, what I want to say is that if you don't mind, Honda Motor Co., Ltd. can provide you with some technical help and support." ”

Chen Geng, who originally felt that Nobuhiko Kawamoto was in the way, suddenly moved in his heart: Honda is willing to provide technical support to himself?

If this is said by someone else, it would be fine, but who is this guy in front of you, the fourth president of Honda Motor Co., Ltd. and the person in charge of Honda's F1 engine project, can he say it casually?

If Honda is willing to provide itself with the design data and parameters of this engine, then it will be more confident when it comes to modifying this CBX1000 engine.

When the words came to his lips, he immediately changed, and Chen Geng said modestly: "If I say 100% you must think I'm bragging, then 90% is fine." In addition, if Honda is willing to provide me with the original design and parameters of this engine, I am sure that the design and finalization of the engine will be completed in three to four months. ”

Nobuhiko Kawamoto: "......"

You don't say I don't think you're bragging, but now I really think you're bragging.

Looking at Nobuhiko Kawamoto's appearance, Chen Geng knew that he couldn't come out without some dry goods, and cleared his throat: "Regarding the construction of this V12 engine, my initial idea is this, the stroke of the piston needs to be reset, and the cylinder block is polished to obtain a larger bore, our goal is to increase the displacement of the engine from the current 1047cc to 1147cc after such adjustments, which means that the maximum displacement of this V12 engine can reach 2.3 liters."

In addition, when you design this CBX1000, you at Honda Motor Co., Ltd. have to take into account the economy of fuel consumption and the reliability and durability of the engine, but these are not things that I need to consider for a racing car at all. After replacing it with a larger carburetor and a higher flow air filter, according to my preliminary calculations, the engine should be able to output a maximum power of 147 horsepower at 9000 rpm, which is 40% more than the original design, so that the maximum output of this V12 engine can reach 294 horsepower, which is very, very enough for a car with a tube frame body weighing only about 750 kilograms. ”

After speaking, Chen Geng said with emotion: "It's a pity that we don't have the original parameters of this engine, we can only set the parameters conservatively, if the strength of the engine itself is enough, it can allow me to increase the parameters of the engine by 60% to 70%, it will be perfect......"

Listening to Chen Geng's eloquent exposition of his plan, Nobuhiko Kawamoto was completely shocked!

If he was still skeptical at first that Fernandez was an idiot who didn't understand technology at all, but now listening to Fernandez's obviously well-planned plan, he immediately realized that this guy understands technology, and he is very, very proficient in it!

Technical things are the most unfake, how many pounds and taels do you have, in front of the real master, two sentences will be exposed, and some of the things and some ideas that Fernandez said, even his own Honda F1 engine research and development chief engineer feels refreshing!

Nobuhiko Kawamoto's heart "thumped...... beating: I didn't expect this guy in front of him to be a real technical master, without any contact with CBX1000, he proposed such a crazy but reasonable plan, if he mastered this engine, I really don't know what kind of monster he would build!

Engineers and engineers always sympathize with each other, and in the face of Fernandez, who talks eloquently, Nobuhiko Kawamoto has an urge to talk with each other at night. As soon as Chen Geng's words fell, Nobuhiko Kawamoto immediately said to Chen Geng: "Mr. Fernandez, please forgive me for my doubts about your ability before, and now I am sure that your ability is enough to support you to complete this genius modification plan, Honda Motor Co., Ltd. is honored to be able to help you to the best of my ability, and I will try my best to persuade Honda Motor Co., Ltd. to provide you with the relevant original parameters of this engine. We will try our best to persuade the company to send engineers to assist you in the development of this V12 engine, and we only hope that Honda Motor Co., Ltd. can share the technology and property rights of this V12 engine with you. ”

Chen Geng wants to monopolize it, but this is impossible, the core technology of the engine is Honda's, and the technology he made is also based on Honda's CBX1000 engine.

Since there is only such a customer, Chen Geng is not qualified to install X, he nodded happily: "If Honda can authorize my company to produce this V12 engine, as well as other engines derived from this engine, I will be happy to share all the technology and patents of this V12 engine with you." In addition, I would like Honda to provide me with the production equipment and technology related to the production of this engine. ”

"That's ......"

Nobuhiko Kawamoto did not agree, nor did he refuse, he pondered for a while, and he said, "I need to report back to the president, and ask His Excellency the president to make a decision." ”

————————————

Although he did not give Chen Geng a positive answer, Kawamoto Nobuhiko stayed, and after learning that Chen Geng was going to participate in both the competition of the production car modification group and the competition of the self-made car group, Kawamoto Nobuhiko made a request to Chen Geng: he hoped to be able to visit their Corvette C3 that was being modified.

Knowing that the technical level embodied in the modified Corvette C3 directly determines the support of Honda Motor Co., Ltd. on its side, and Kawamoto Nobuhiko himself is also a technical master, just to communicate, Chen Geng agreed very simply, not only took Kawamoto Nobuhiko to watch the Corvette C3 that was in the state of chassis modification, but also took him to see the "big-block" 496 engine that has been 60% completed.

"Roar!" Looking at the behemoth with an exhaust capacity of 9.2 liters in front of him, Kawamoto Nobuhiko's eyes were about to pop out, for Kawamoto Nobuhiko, who was born in a small country with extremely poor resources, this kind of big V8 engine is simply unimaginable.

Chen Geng also admitted his shortcomings: "The weight of this engine is too heavy, and many design processes, such as the thickness of the shell, are serious, and we are going to polish the shell by 2 mm." Speaking of this, Chen Geng shrugged: "We don't have the raw data of this 'big-block' 496, considering the reliability, 2 mm is a relatively safe value - in fact, 3 mm is fine, but there is too little time left for us to fully test, we can't take this risk." ”

Looking at the 3.5 centimeter-thick shell of the "BIG-BLOCK" 496 engine, Nobuhiko Kawamoto nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, this is indeed a great waste, and it greatly increases the weight of the engine itself. ”

Chen Gengyi pouted: "This is the American car culture, without considering fuel consumption, this huge displacement engine has a thrilling industrial beauty...... Mr. Kawamoto, please follow me, here is the five-speed racing sequential transmission that I designed, and this transmission will not only be used in the "big-block" 496 engine, but the gear design will also be transplanted to the transmission that will be paired with the V12 engine......"

........................

After a round of visiting, Nobuhiko Kawamoto felt that his whole person was turned upside down.

He originally didn't think much of Fernandez's grass platform team, and when he heard that Fernandez was preparing to participate in the Detroit Modified Car Grand Prix, he instinctively felt that Fernandez could build a racing car that could meet the lower limit of the requirements at most, but after visiting this lap, he had a new understanding of Fernandez's technical heritage: there are as many as 15 engineers from Ford, Chrysler, and General Motors, the three major American auto giants!

Especially Fernandez, this guy's mastery in automotive technology is simply unfathomable!

Nobuhiko Kawamoto no longer doubts whether Fernandez can cobble together a V-shaped 12-cylinder engine with two CBX1000, this guy's ability and level are enough to be the chief engineer of any OEM, but Nobuhiko Kawamoto, who returned to Chen Geng's office, raised his own question: How to solve the problem of heat dissipation by piecing together the engines of two motorcycles into a V12 engine, and such a crazy "overclocking"?

After all, CBX1000 didn't design for a closed cabin with this kind of working environment in mind.
