You could do that with the delay timer being started by the first fan, then however long later you set the timer, it could energize the 2nd one. Thanks for taking the time to follow along!

She ran tonight but we found a fuel leak going right onto the header collector so there was pops, coming to the rescue with 10' of 8AN replacement line and fittings. 😎 Stay Tuned for a video. 👍

I can't do anything about it except ask if I can have them all surfaced or send them back myself. I don't own surfacing equipment. 😞

It's a good thing my son has "common sense". He shut her down immediately. It doesn't appear to have done any damage, but we will get to hear the motor fire up again tonight or tomorrow. Thanks for following along this fiasco! 👍 Pops

That was changed months ago, but thank you for the tip!

Me too but you can do it. Just don't let the drill bit walk when you start so a center punch is a good thing to use. Put the headgasket on he head to mark the punch holes before anything, or that is what I did. I used it as a "template" for where to drill.

@@martywilsonwilsonenginesho7940 that's for the knowledge

lower the rear end ratio for some real fun

@frez777 we are running 3:73's so it doesn't get 5mpg. 4:11's would put the car out of 3rd and into OD before crossing the finish line at the track so we decided against that. Thanks for following along this fun! 👍

Thanks, I just wanted to show that you didn't have to have a machine shop do the work. A jig for the head and a DRILL PRESS would have made the work A LOT FASTER, but the hand drill works and the motor has 5k on it now and runs very good. The heads are on my son's 1986 Z28 that has my 400 SBC in it and they work very well. I wish I had bought the 210cc instead of the 180cc runner model is all. Flotek is a good American company and I would buy their heads again. Probably would upgrade to hi pressure springs, for those interested.

She just "looks" old 😎😉 It has a John Deere Industrial motor in it from some Ag equipment out in Western KS. That turned out to be a John Deer Green 400 small block Chevy 😮. Don't worry, it's no longer JD Green. 😂

Yeh, no since beating on it until or if it ever has forced induction. We had already blown a governor cover off of a fresh rebuilt trans an hour or so before we came home. The old girl did take down a V8 S10, tho. It's my motor, so I won't let him do too long of one, so call it a one step if you like, lol.

Fr, don’t judge him. I bet you don’t even have V8. And if you did, you’d understand how much patience and dedication it takes to own one.

@martywilsonwilsonenginesho7940 it was supposed to be a funny comment.... and yes I have a 6.2 and get it, but if you wanna see a good two step, go look at cleetusmcfarland

@codenamemist2560 see reply, sorry my jokes are monitone even when typed 😅

@@theaterlightman89 it's all good amounst gear heads. Lost to an Evo but won the V8 S10 run. Just having fun, that's all. 😎 My 600HP Talon would leave them all crying 😢

If we had cats, either on the car or in real life, they'd all be GONE.....🤣 so to answer your question, no cats. Shorty headers into an electric exhaust cut out.

If I recall, it was an odd size but I matched the size with the block hole size. BTW, that engine in a full wt Z28 took a V8 Swap S10 in Mexico last nite and never got over 195* . 😎

I enjoy building them, not so fun putting them in the car anymore though. 🙄

You would have to find me, I think I just jumped out of the forum......maybe the platform too.

@@martywilsonwilsonenginesho7940 what? why marty? are you just done with the dsm playform? Bored with it?

@1gawdtsi tired of the "know it alls" that claim to know but don't and the bickering by some that do nothing but "bicker", no real contributions to the platform. I do love the thrill my DSMs give me, don't get me wrong. I am not afraid of any car when I am motoring around in my HX40 cars 😍

@martywilsonwilsonenginesho7940 Well maybe I can win the lotto soon and have u build me a camed daily driver motor. I don't know very much mechanical knowledge but want to learn. I don't have face book, Instagram, tik tok, any of that because I don't like how it has become lol. Well I hope you stick around on the forums because it is people like you that honestly keep this platform alive and going with repairs and goals lol.

4G63 running 40lbs of boost in my 1990 Eagle Talon with a HX40 Holset turbo. She is one fun car and a scary one also. Thanks for asking 👍 I should have some pictures up later today of the motor. I am waiting on a good front cover and she is about done!

@@martywilsonwilsonenginesho7940 Nice, good job!

Reason is because these vacuum pumps are powerful they can pull a decent vac on a leaky valve! The pro ones use very small CFM so no need to isolate. But with a pump like this you want to be shutting that valve I think so you can isolate the pump from the system.

Yeah I played around like that too but didn't really "time" them. It was interesting and FUN to check my work. I posted a before and after picture of the #2 cylinders exhaust valves when I got finished with the video and gained 2" of vacuum just lapping a little more. The leak down you are talking about is a good test of the wear of the guides and any bad valve stem seals, which were old on that head. I appreciate the tip and thanks for just tagging along this adventure that seems to repeat itself because I drive pretty dam hard but know who to blame. 😊👍 Also, I intentionally got THE CHEAPEST, LOWEST CFM pump I could find for this experiment. It will double as my vacuum pump for my personal a/c jobs that I have been using a venturi style pneumatic pump for. 😎

Yep

I bet a clutch or TC weighs more than that. It's the same thing that I told my son when he was listening to this video. The 350 isn't a high compression motor, just dished 350 pistons with 64cc 1970 Corvette heads and UNLOADED (not on a Dyno) so it's definitely going to rev super snappy. It's just a breakin stand (but boy I wish I could afford a Dyno room!) 😂 The 400 is a dished piston engine also. She runs real good in that heavy car (3650 lb).

I'm about a year away from a law settlement for my hips . And that's what I plan on trying to make a business out of but I want a Mobile DYNO I saw one on a video where the black diesel explodes . I'll take it around to all the car shows and hoe many people would love to dyno their car at those meets

Everyone and their mother has been using Comp Cams since the stone age.... they're as good as it gets.

@@PotatoeJoe69 You haven't heard of all the cam/lifter failures? I used to think nothing of swaping cams but since all these reports I stopped doing that.

The issue is the MOTOR OIL used during Break In fellows. Also, if you can, like I did, have your camshaft NITRIDED for an additional $150 from Comp. That, along with a good break in oil with a GOOD AMOUNT of ZZDP (and/or the addition of ZZDP Additive like Rislone makes and I use) will get the cam broken in without issues. Modern engine oils have been stripped of Zink and Phosphorus that help "lube" and protect the cam lobe surfaces from premature wear during the critical first 15-20 minutes of running. Also, you must bring your engine up to at least 2000 rpm so that the lifters will spin and wear evenly. I have had a Comp Cam go flat once (it is about the only brand I use on SBC's). They replaced the cam and the lifters for me and that's when I started having them Nitrided and using additional ZZDP for the break in period. Pops

@@martywilsonwilsonenginesho7940 I used to pump them as a test of the check valve but other than that toss 'em in with off the shelf motor oil. kzbin.info/www/bejne/g5O1m3SDnah4gM0si=uiY8juIy218fMxFv

The lack of torque converter will make it rev up and return to idle quicker.

I'm glad he got the honor he deserved!

@@martywilsonwilsonenginesho7940 the thing is my dad never told us he served in the military he took it to the grave with him and my mother never knew anything about his past

The military can clam you up. Dad didn't talk about his Navy role much but he never liked to go for a boat ride with me on my boat, a nice big safe Cobalt. Something changed him about water mom thought.

I don't have any AEM stuff. Tag Darren Thomas Racing out of OKC and he could help you. He's the only one I know running an AEM V1.

@@martywilsonwilsonenginesho7940 what's his username? I can't find him bro

I do know if he has a KZbin channel. I don't do FB shit but I do believe he is on there and also Dsmtuners as @Darren Thomas Racing over on the forum.

Thanks Kurt. It is a full time job. The red car motor had an "issue" so stay "tuned" for the fresh shortblock. :-)

Thanks Kurt, unfortunately I lost something in the bottom end a few weeks ago so a new motor is being prepped for taking the car to the track. I know I had my 10.xxx street car! Thanks for following!

I'm trying Aaron, I'm getting old so not as fast or energetic as I was 10 years ago or so. Thanks for following along! I'm still trying to have FUN!!!

Thank you Larry! It was tricky to get to work with the AEM Gears as they are thicker than stock but I made a solution for it on the DSMTuners.com website. I space the front cover OUT with some washers to keep the clear upper cover from rubbing on them and it evidently works. I don't hear any sounds from them. I drove it half a mile and back and boy is that twin disk clutch a touchy unit!!! Killed the car 3 times getting it to the road lmao. Thanks for following along, it's been quite a few years since this car has ran.
