The ATS two
piece pulse manifold for the Dodge Cummins application with its
pulse exhaust flow design, increases exhaust gas efficiency helping
to spool up the turbocharger sooner with less exhaust
back-pressure.
This pulse manifold
design eliminates the problems that persist with the stock manifold
in ISBe engines, that is namely the shrinking and breaking of
the manifolds. The stock manifold in ISBe engines can shrink as
much as 3/8 of an inch. This causes exhaust gasket problems,
manifold-cracking problems, and exhaust flow problems created by
exhaust port misalignment.
Expansion and contraction of the ATS pulse manifold
is taken up in the expansion joint. The expansion
joints is unique in design. Advanced Turbo Systems holds a
U.S. patent in the expansion joints design and function. One
set of bolt holes have merely a clearance fit where the manifold
attaches to the cylinder head, the other set of bolt holes have
more clearance for expansion. The end castings are where the
function of this design becomes unique. The end castings that
install into the straight bore of the center casting are a ball
circumference seal arrangement. This allows the expansion joint to
have interference fit and still assemble the manifold easily; while
creating an excellent seal arrangement which allows for expansion
and contraction of the manifold while maintaining a positive seal.
The end castings of this manifold have one hole that is bolt
clearance only. This insures near perfect exhaust port alignment
without exhaust manifold movement on the head. This eliminates
gasket and bolt loosening problems.
The ATS two piece pulse manifold is cast of a much higher-grade
material than the stock manifold. Instead of being just cast iron
like the stock manifold, the ATS manifold is a ductile casting,
which will handle far more heat without being brittle. This pulse
manifold is a high molly-silicon-ductile casting that is machined
on state of the art palletized CNC machining centers. All Manifolds
come Pre-Assembled with
Black High Temperature Coating and Pre-Tapped for Pyrometer
Probe.
