Feuling Gets Fourth Three-Cylinder Patent"

10 June 1999



VENTURA, CA. – Feuling Advanced Technologies announced the award of their 
fourth U.S. patent for their improved three-valve cylinder head design. Jim Feuling, 
president and founder of Feuling Advanced Technologies and Feuling R & D, 
developed cutting edge technology that optimizes the multi-valve cylinder head 
design. Improvements include reduced emissions, increased thermal and volumetric 
efficiency and the ability to run a higher compression ratio on pump gas for added 
fuel economy and power.

"Three valve technology is the wave of the future," according to Jim Feuling. 
"Our new technology delivers major improvements in fuel economy and emissions 
over comparative four and five valve cylinder head designs currently being used 
in the automotive industry." Hot Rod magazine spotlights this design in their 
June ‘99 issue.

Feuling's new patent joins those already issued for the "Max Flow" valve, 
"High Velocity" intake and exhaust port design and "Centerfire" 
two valve combustion chamber. These features combined allow "…the use of 
unleaded fuels with a higher octane tolerance than ever thought possible." 
February ‘99 and March ‘99 articles in Hot Rod magazine along with November 
‘98 Popular Hot Rodding cover and feature article have highlighted this revolutionary 
new design.

Jim Feuling has been an automotive industry pioneer for more than 25 years. He has 
developed products for O.E. manufacturers like Ford Motor Company, Chevrolet, 
Oldsmobile and Harley-Davidson, as well as automotive aftermarket manufacturers 
like Edelbrock, Bell Helmets, Cyclone / Blackjack headers and Mr. Gasket. 
Additional accomplishments include four new land speed records as the "World's 
fastest motorcycle" setting two AMA and two LSAA land speed records @ 332.103 
miles per hour at the Bonneville Salt Flats, recently documented on TLC/Discovery 
channel's "A Need for Speed."
