Claims
- 1. In an internal combustion engine having an exhaust valve operatively interposed between walls forming a combustion chamber and wall forming an exhaust port passage, the improvement comprising, in combination: an exhaust port liner insertable into position within the exhaust port passage, in the absence of said valve, said liner being bifurcated to form two entrance portions, the major portion of the length of said liner being spaced with respect to the wall forming said exhaust port passage, said liner having a circular projection defining a discharge opening for said liner, and a support piece having a peripheral skirt tightly fitting into said wall of the exhaust port passage, said support piece being fixed on said liner projection, said support piece acting to prevent flow of exhaust gases between said liner and the wall of the exhaust port passage.
- 2. In a multi-cylinder internal combustion engine having exhaust ports grouped in pairs, each pair connected to a wall forming a single exhaust port passage, the improvement comprising, in combination: an exhaust port liner insertable into position within the exhaust port passage, each liner being shaped to provide entrance openings from two adjacent exhaust ports but having only a single discharge opening, the major portion of the length of said liner being spaced with respect to the wall forming said exhaust port passage, a recess provided at the discharge end of the exhaust port passage, and a support piece having a peripheral skirt, a central opening and an outer oval flange tightly fitted into said recess of the exhaust port passage, said support piece being fixed on said liner near its downstream end by said central opening.
