I've waited over two months for a camshaft from one of the "big name" companies. They blame it on their suppliers. I finally canceled the order and called Erson Cams. Better cam for nearly the same price. He said it would take 10 days for it to get into shipping. That was on a Thursday. It showed up at my door on Monday! There is no doubt who will supply my next cam. The new engine is moving right along now. I still have some mounts to make.

[@inthegarage342]

a big part of that idle surge is the 8% under driven blower. awesome sounding little small block. good job.

[@qtrmiler1]

Actually, is because the Carter Carbs had problems and were too lean. I replaced them with 600cfm holleys with boost referenced power valves and vacuum secondaries. Now it runs smooth as could be and wastes a lot less gas. You can always turn the idle down and turn the idle mixture screws in a little and make it surge.

[@SmokeyBear363]

@@qtrmiler1 you tell ‘em boss

[@mikebrosnan2895]

"This is caused by a rich/lean cycle at idle. As the motor leans out the RPM's increase and richen up the motor, when the motor richens the RPM's decrease and the motor leans out again. This continual cycle is known as “blower surge”. " Source: The Blower Shop

[@inthegarage342]

@mikebrosnan2895 True, and the more underdrive , the more blower surge because of the increased airflow at each RPM surge.

[@peterdatechmen5506]

Say lean but noticed throttle blip fires a quick rich pump shot out of the exhausts. Sounds more like float levels upsetting the emulsion tubes mix. Change to Holley's and setting levels and metering blocks are way simpler, same for secondary actuation etc. Correct timing curve and fuelling is a must and expensive if you get them wrong! Was hoping this wasn't a blooper clip where a big torque rev sends it spinning off that rediculously narrow stand. They are not designed to be dyno stands lol. I recall coming into a shop where they were trying to start a 402 BB on the floor with a similar setup. Thankfully I found their firing order was out and prevented damage and injury! His loose shirt tail in the latter part of this clip got awfully close to the pulleys and belt! Loved building these 383 and the 406 SB too!

I just bought a 2017 M3 competition. It has a straight 6 with twin turbo. I built V8s as a teenager, and in my 20s. I had Mustangs and a '63 Fairlane, so I was working with 289s. There is simply nothing today that sounds as beautiful as a supercharged V8. As fun, and fast, as my BMW is, it's just not a raw horsepower V8. Nice job, sir.

[@fiatlux4265]

The 4.0L V8 S65 in the e92 M3 sounds crazy ferocious with a fully modified exhaust, 8400rpm redline on a V8 is insane. I've an e46 M3 with the S54 3.3L (overbore) I6 NA and can agree, while it sounds like a Ferrari with the right exhaust (incredible 8.1k redline), there's something about old school American muscle OHV V8s that sound like absolute monsters. The idle of this engine, if my S54 would be making the same sounds, would have me in a heartattack right away, wondering what plethora of sensors, software settings, and/or idle control parts have messed up idle. But for this polished beaut, just amazing that it's like what you're aiming for lol. Music to the ears, masterpiece of an engine, took me 3.5 years to rebuild the S54 motor, stacked with mods, but not nearly as nice as this!

@@qtrmiler1 I’ve always heard that blower surge was caused by them not being tuned properly, but then I have to wonder why I see so many supercharged cars that surge badly, like enough to chirp the tires every time it leans out.
