Abstract: An internal combustion engine exhaust modification system for transforming exhaust emissions from an internal combustion engine into modified exhaust emissions. The exhaust modification system includes a housing extending between inlet and outlet ends thereof. The system also includes an impeller rotatably mounted in the housing, and a filter subassembly downstream from the impeller. The filter subassembly removes part of particulate matter and liquid droplets in the exhaust emissions to transform the exhaust emissions into modified exhaust emissions. The system includes a conduit extending between an inner end thereof positioned to direct cooler air exiting therefrom into the housing toward the filter subassembly, and an outer end thereof. The system also includes a funnel subassembly having a funnel body for directing the cooler air into the outer end of the conduit.

Abstract: A fastening system including a bolt with a shank defining a bolt axis and a bolt head secured to the shank. The bolt head includes a bolt head body with two channels therein, and two slots aligned with the channels. The channels and the slots extend between oppositely positioned axis-parallel surfaces. The channels are partially defined by internal walls in the bolt head body. The bolt head includes a cap surface transverse to the bolt axis. The system also includes a tool with a blade defining a tool axis, with a tip located at the second end. The tip is receivable in the channels. To rotate the bolt, the tip is positioned in a selected one of the channels, to align the tool axis with the bolt axis. Rotation of the bolt is urged by the tool, when the tool is rotated about the tool axis.

Abstract: An internal combustion engine exhaust modification system for transforming exhaust emissions from an internal combustion engine into modified exhaust emissions. The exhaust modification system include a housing extending between inlet and outlet ends thereof. The housing has a first cross-sectional area at a first location that is downstream from the inlet end and a second cross-sectional area at a second location that is downstream from the first location. The second cross-sectional area is larger than the first cross-sectional area. The system also includes an impeller rotatably mounted in the housing, and a filter subassembly. The filter subassembly removes part of particulate matter and liquid droplets in the exhaust emissions to transform the exhaust emissions into modified exhaust emissions.
