Attention engine fans! In this episode of Alte Schule, Prof. Fritz Indra is our guest and takes us on a fascinating journey through the development of legendary Opel engines – from the first CIH inline six-cylinder engines to the 4.0L Irmscher engine. We talk about the origins of the 3.0L 24V engine, its significance in motorsport, the ingenious design with the dual-ram intake system, and why this inline six was considered one of the best of its time. Prof. Indra also talks about his work on DTM engine development, the Lotus Omega Biturbo project, crankshaft tricks, and the technical challenges of high-revving engines. A must-see for anyone interested in real engine technology, background information on development, and exciting anecdotes from the golden era of combustion engines.
