Harley-Davidson Shovelhead engine (original) (raw)
The Shovelhead engine is a motorcycle engine that was produced by Harley-Davidson from 1966 to 1984, built as a successor to the previous Panhead engine. When the engine was first produced, the Shovelhead had a shallower combustion chamber, larger valve drop for both intake and exhaust, better porting, and stronger valves and pistons. This gave the new engine an extra 10 horsepower, along with a different appearance. The engine gained the nickname “Shovelhead” due to the look of the rocker covers having the appearance of an old coal shovel that was flipped upside down, giving the appearance of a shovel. While the engine did have problems earlier in its timeline, the new and improved motor gave Harley-Davidson a 26% sales increase.

(en) Le Shovelhead est un moteur de moto produit par Harley-Davidson de 1966 à 1984 qui succéda au moteur Panhead. Au début de sa production, par rapport au moteur précédent, le Shovelhead avait des chambres de combustion moins profondes, des soupapes d'admission et d'échappement plus grandes, une combustion améliorée, ainsi que des soupapes et des pistons renforcés. Cela donnait au nouveau moteur dix chevaux supplémentaires, avec une apparence différente du haut moteur. Le moteur reçu le surnom de «Shovelhead» en raison de l'aspect des têtes de rocker ressemblant à de vieilles pelles à charbon renversées.

(fr) Lo Shovelhead è un motore prodotto dalla Harley-Davidson tra il 1966 ed il 1984. Si tratta di un bicilindrico a V stretta di 45°, con distribuzione ad aste e bilancieri, due valvole in testa per cilindro, un albero nel basamento, trasmissione primaria e finale a catena, raffreddamento ad aria e alimentazione a carburatore. È il successore del propulsore Panhead e il precursore dell'Evolution. Il suo nome deriva dalla forma dei coperchi delle valvole, che ricorda quella di un badile (in inglese: shovel). (it) |
