Feuling Gets Fourth Three-Valve Cylinder Patent

    VENTURA, Calif., May 25 -- 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."
