Is Engine Swapping Legal?
1 Answers
Engine swapping is illegal. The camshaft layout of an engine is divided into two types: OHC (Overhead Camshaft) and OHV (Overhead Valve). Currently, Japanese and European car manufacturers prefer the overhead camshaft design, while the overhead valve design is typically only seen in American vehicles. Below is a related introduction to engines: 1. Concept: An engine (Engine) is a machine capable of converting other forms of energy into mechanical energy, including internal combustion engines (reciprocating piston engines), external combustion engines (Stirling engines, steam engines, etc.), jet engines, electric motors, etc. 2. Principle: For example, an internal combustion engine usually converts chemical energy into mechanical energy. The term engine can refer to both the power-generating device and the entire machine including the power unit (e.g., gasoline engines, aircraft engines). When an engine is operating, each moving part exerts a certain force on another part and undergoes high-speed relative motion. This relative motion inevitably generates friction on the part surfaces, accelerating wear. 3. Origin: The engine was first developed in the UK, so the concept of the engine also originates from English, with its original meaning referring to 'a mechanical device that generates power.'
