The first-generation Chevy Small Block deserves its reputation as a powerful and reliable engine. It’s the foundation for an old-school stroker build with an emphasis on durability.

Most engine dyons dont accurately measure output below 2,500-3,000 RPM. They just have a difficult time accomplishing that from what I've been told.? Not 100% sure why exactly. It may have to do with the resistance that is measured with a dyno is applied via water.. so possibly the instability or inconsistency of the water at low RPM perhaps ? Still, just a guess

@@Torquemonster440 In the case of a carburetor, that's weird territory - most dyno tests would like to be on mains, and away from transition. Tuning would add focus on IFR, idle air bleed, PVCR sizing, and the accelerator pump shot being midrange. You are right about there being a floor - if engine dies upon loading up, test fails.

@@montebradshaw128 I don’t really have any faith in a sloppy timing chain that tightens up on acceleration. That cam movement will also move the distributor relative to the cam gear. Better just to have a tight lobe separation angle cam advanced 4 degrees with an advance limited distributor (10 total). Set he total at 36 by 2800 rpm, and dial in the idle adjustments.

Interesting information and barks right up my tree...I'm supercharging a V6 for off-road/Overland use. Low-end torque is all I really want, massive speed on the Interstate is useless to me. All I need is 65mph, and anything more is icing. Caveat is, I'm running SOHC....which is probably going to change things up, but I know I absolutely CAN adjust my valve timing....just need a suitable grind. Kinda wish you could re-do this idea with forced air induction. Gonna be similar enough, but compression ratios need to be lower thanks to being force-fed.

I liked this show for 2 reasons: I`ve always wanted to change cam timing like that but dyno time is expensive and so is that T/C cover. 2nd I just finished a build for a customer 3 weeks ago which was almost identical to your set-up. The only difference was we used a set of PROMAXX 200cc cnc ported heads on a 388. It pulled 491 ft-lbs at 3100rpm and 500hp at 6100rpm, thats close enough to be identical to me. The big surprise was the heads are over-seas castings and machined here plus they looked impressive too with small diameter LS beehive solid roller springs. I`ve enjoyed all the shows y`all showed for the last dozen years with the big chevelle guy and the blonde ford guy..........Thanks guys

Why are you putting the pistol and rod assembly in the block at a 45 degree angle, sliding the rod on the bore? Proper install is 90 degrees straight down, vertical to the floor.

I know the intake was the matching AFR unit, but I'm really shocked they didn't go dual plane to bump the TQ even further.. probably would have boosted it 15-25 points across the power band.

@@samcharles1166 it's an intake manifold that's built more for power production below 5,000 rpm , where 99.9% of off road trucks operate. "Single plane" intakes are generally engineered to produce higher power levels above 5,000 rpm at the expense less low rpm power production. Single plane intake manifolds are generally used for drag racing applications.

That’s way high in rpm than I run custom engines for off road. I like torque between 1500 and 4500, could care less about any power over over 5500 rpm.

I have an 87 k5 blazer TBI 350 5.7l v8 and I want to put a bigger cam in it. I’ve had several mechanics tell me this is not possible because of the MAP sensor. Is this true or do they not know how to do it? I’m not a me mechanic by any means so I’m searching for some answers.

If the adjustable cam had a set of holes on a Vernier scale you could adjust it more precisely and lock it in. For example, the base could have threaded holes 1 degree apart and the top could have through holes 1.1 degrees apart. This way a set of holes would line up every tenth of a degree and could be locked in with a bolt. This would also give you more exact adjustment.

Yeah a single plane and a mid 230 cam. I run a dual plane manifold and a 216 hydraulic roller cam in my 383 camaro, and it rips low and hangs on up till about 5500 (I have full ported sportsman 2’s). I know for damn sure my engine is more in line (sans the heads) with what an off-roader daily driver would want/need.

This seems like something you wouldn't want to do with a turbo, seems like you would get into detonation even quicker. Unless a boost controller can manage things, but not sure if this increases dynamic compression up top or reduces it. Having a hard time understanding how this would come into play for me engine.

Especially when they'll be lugging it up steep inclines. Looks good on a chassis dyno with super cool water temps, but in a suburban, with mild converter, loaded up and yanking a fellow trail rider out of the mud... Detonation city. Agreed, it's a recipe for disaster.
