Injection has it's place in many apps esp forced induction but for NA where simplicity, power and ease is required you just can't go past carbs. Injection just doesn't make any more power. It just doesn't and to show one or 2 vids where it does is the exception, and means your assertion that it does make more power needs work.
@iceman45ification14 жыл бұрын
Carbs have proven themselves to make power, even to this day. Also, this video, although posted several days ago, is actually over 10 years old. Most guys that race with injected engines these days throw a lot of boost at it. Naturally aspirated, like with this carb setup is a totally different story. In a head to head comparison, a carbureted engine can just about match the power of an injected engine, if not exceed it.

Might be an older post, but I'm really getting interested in these LSX's. I'm an older (and retired) hot rodder and one of my kids is getting interested in hot rodding. So I have been gathering what I need for a custom job on an old Buick Sedanette, and I might even grab a Caddy Sedanette I found while looking around. Either way, I think that would be a fun and totally awesome father and son project! Anyway, I was actually thinking a Buick 455 plant for the Roadmaster, or an old school 454 if I pick up that other basket case and go with the Caddy later on. But having had several Suburbans with LS engines in them and tinkering with them over the years, I started thinking about going the LS route. After watching this video, I think I'll update my knowledge on the LS series engines. Thanks for this video, fellas!

Do it right and tight the first time. Something I started doing years ago on header bolts, timing cover bolts, flywheel bolts, harmonic balancer bolt, intake bolts, timing gear bolts, drive shaft bolts and more I use blue loctite. I buy the blue loctite at harbor freight it's cheap with a 20% coupon but I heard they're stopped the coupons. Mostly if it doesn't have a nylon lock nut on it it gets blue loctite. Never loose bolts again and no leaks. I do not use loctite on head bolts, rod bolts and main studs. Also I always let the bolts dry before running them with blue loctite on them. I hear they have loctite gel I've not used it yet it may be a faster drying time. I also drill the oil pan bolt run a 1/4 inch stainless steel bolt and nylon locking nut with washers sealed through the oil pan to run safety wire around the drain plug and another nylon lock nut. So the oil drain plug doesn't come loose. You could also machine a flat piece of metal with 12 points on it to fit the oil drain plug so you can just put the tab over it and clamp it down but that's more time and money. And that's for somebody that doesn't like safety wire. Most everything I work on gets blue loctite do the job right the first time.

What racers used to do pack intake with ice. On this intake you could put some aluminum around the sides, front and back of the intake chill with ice remove and race. What the Hellcat does is runs the outside air through the hood scoop through the air conditioner condenser or evaporator through the air filter into the motor for super cold air. I'm not sure exactly where the air filter is in this super cold ice box air induction system but it's truly efficient it should be on everything for power and gas mileage.

If they built it right they could’ve made over 730 hp, instead of a carburetor they could’ve installed the LSXR 102 intake manifold, and a bigger cam, a 233 intake duration cam is tiny for 7.0L considering I run that sized cam in my 4.8L, also some LSX heads would’ve flowed more cfm instead of those stock milled heads. And they should’ve revved out that cam more closer to 7200 rpm

Roller fulcrums maybe but racers learnt roller rockers gave reliability and power 40 years ago,, and more.Go measure the extra lift and duration a roller rocker gives.
