Question:

Layers of copper and zinc? Would it make a difference/work?

I have a little experiment I would like to try. I wanna take a copper bar plate itin zinc then copper then zinc then copper etc to build up layers then heat it as to make a brass shell out of the layers that is much more durable then one thin layer of brass the you do but plating copper in zinc then heating. Is this possible?

Answer:

You pour it down the tube where the dipstick is.
cant, its a sealed system dealer serviced only, dont try it
For the best answers, search on this site shorturl.im/avONX Nope because you don't give enough information which leads one to believe you don't have the knowledge or skill set to do it which would make it darn near impossible for you to do but that 17 year old kid down the street who is always working on cars could probably do it in 20min while texting his girl friend.
Copper is softer than brass and zinc is hard, but very easy to break. So, if you layered them and just heated them a little it would not be as strong as brass. If you heated them enough to form brass, it would BE brass.and brass is not stronger than brass.
