@@KarKamp RPM act allows someone to modify a former street car - now a pure off-road/race car. As for on the street, the EPA just means you cannot disable/defeat any emission control device but they never really defined what that is.

Thinking about the next generation of Hot Rodders just starting out, I would love to see a multiple series engine build show and demonstrating what to do when things don't quite work out right. For example, what to do when the main bearing clearances are smaller / bigger than originally thought...what do you do. Same for rod bearings or when the bore is bigger or smaller than expected etc etc. I understand this wouldn't be nearly as exciting for us experience folks but I think the younger generation would appreciate having a "source" to turn to.

This video is just an advertisement for all the parts used. $800 builds have very little parts to advertise.

[@confuse3671]

$800 will get you a camshaft kit. But if the engine has decent compression, decent oil pressure, and you aren't going to rev it to the moon, a camshaft in an LS2 (6.0 L) could get you very close to a 500hp, streetable motor - with headers. Add heads and your at 550. Build a stroker, keep the compression high, and you have upper 580s.

[@LordMustangGT93]

I want to step in and stay thats kinda BS too. ALOT of people race from stop ligths still... and like you said, towing people want the low end. My 460 BBF only goes to 3800RPM stock.

[@bobbyschlitz6757]

Love builds like this. Could have gave it a bit more on the compression side of things, went to a long tube header, maybe a Fast lsxr or stock Ls3 intake for more mid range torque. My 408 put down 636 hp and 527 ftlb at 28 degrees, 11.8:1 compression, slightly bigger cam, and FED stage 1 LS3 cylinder heads. Cars a complete nutcase now. With 4.11s and a 6 speed to boot.

[@TDC-CRYPTO-LLP]

Out if curiosity what was your cost just a ball park, any specifics on your build recipe? Understand everyone doesn't like sharing their combos due to competitors, but just wondering.. haven't done a price breakdown of this engine recipe but given you having the same base build with little more compression, and few minor part changes and netting what 100ft lbs more tq as well as hp would be neat to see the comparison with costs compared to this build . I guess what I'm saying is a dollar cost average on hp with your build compared to this one..kinda cool to see a cheaper variant putting more hp and tq or where the best hp gain per dollar is best spent on a given area..hopefully this makes sense lol

A full overhaul on the top and bottom end with performance parts and a tune on the dyno, I bet it’d make north of 400 reliably.

[@toomanyhobbies2011]

I miss "the old days" when magazines were the source of information. They had many comparisons instead of single-source part builds. This helped determine what parts you needed for your application, so you could save a little money. If you do some reading you'll find that the 317 heads are good for low end and not appropriate for much else. They're great truck heads, but you wouldn't want to use them on a race engine. Love how these guys just spray the lube all over the springs, missing the valve-rocker surface, and I guess this was a stroker kit that took this to 406 cu in. Love to pair that bottom end with my stock top end. A nice flat torque curve is best, and this Summit kit does a good job without mixing and matching parts from different sources. I wonder how much this build cost, maybe $10,000?

[@confuse3671]

If you ever find a price breakdown, please post it. $1600 block, $2000 rotating assembly, $3000 heads, $1000 camshaft, $1000 little parts (bolts covers retainer), $2000 oil pan intake etc. $3000 for EFI?????

Hi guys, great video as usual. You fella's are a natural team, don't change a thing. One question; I've only ever seen the show advertise & recommend certain pre-assembly lubes & thread lock products. But ! What are your preferred engine oils ? Do you refrain from mentioning specific brands because there are so many brands who could be valuable potential show sponsors. Followers and friends please jump in with your choices, and why. I bought a 93 Chevrolet Cheyenne in 95, with the 4.3 engine & 100k miles. It had a holed piston and cracked head (but it only cost $500). Anyhoo, I took that teardown opportunity to meticulously mic and record every measurable tolerance and compare them with factory specs. Everything was still factory-spec-identical!! I rebuilt the engine and put on an additional 243K miles, over a 25 year period (with only high $ synthetic oil). I tore the engine down 2 years ago, and all of the mic readings were virtually the same as when I started. So, what oils do you guys use for your favourite engines ?

I would die to see a LeMans type SBF, something that revs super high, would be so cool.

[@confuse3671]

The problem with really high reving motors are: 1) They beat up valve springs. and 2) they make no power at low rpms. Sucks to have to rev to 4500+ rpm just to beat the stock Honda Accord next to you. Old school motors have about a 4500rpm power band. So if you are peaking at 8500, your probably not making usable power below 4000. Make that a high winding 302.... on the street, it will be pretty much undrivable. I was young and dumb once (now just old and.... never mind), have a car that will not idle at all and trying to deal with loose torque converters and driving on highway etc. with no power brakes (or worse, power brakes that are spotty) and well, when you get older, you want that air conditioning. Cheaper and funner to build bigger motor OR boosted motor.

Given there’s 30 more ci here should have at least made more tq.

I asked my dad and he informed me my younger brother burned up the motor in 2019 and the only thing he could get in time was a factory reject, because it had the wrong angle on the cylinders, so it was bored and sleeved. He said he thought it was supposed to go in an 09 Sierra HD. I don't think it's flex fuel, so I believe I have an LY6 with 862 heads ...with less than 100k on it. 😃 I'm researching to find out how I can confirm if true or not.

You guys didn't go over the oil pump hitting the Double Roller Chain!! On an LS engine, a Double Roller timing setup WILL hit the oil pump, or if spacers are used, then oil pump bolts WILL hit the cover. 2nd, It moves the Oil pickup tube forward by 1/8in, so the stock pickup doesn't fit correctly after that. Why didn't you go over ANY of this?

Hey I have a 2003 Chevrolet Silverado Z-71 4X4 could I put a super charger on it with it having just over 207000 miles on it I’m not talking about the route style I’m talking about the one that looks like a turbo charger

[@brianb6653]

You can throw a ProCharger (belt driven centrifugal supercharger) on anything you wish. But without a rebuild, borrowed time ;)

The 317 are cathedral port. The trick flow heads were rectangle port. If they tested a stock rectangle port head , the flow would have been very close
