I run a duel plain intake on a 302 stock block bottom end on 270 big shot plate kit. Got 20 passes on it so far. This will be interesting well they all are but this episode I'll pay closer attention lol

[@josephmoneymobley]

Well 20 more hrp says I'm going to a single plain... bye bye duel plain intake. Dang it lol

[@williamsanders468]

If your running nitrous than you most likely want more power, just run the single plane you’ll make more power

Is this the same puppy they shot 6 years ago? So it's like rasie the puppy from the dead and shoot it again? I would love for a ( how much nos can a stock motor with bigger ring gaps take) video

[@oldschoolbudgetracing1458]

I still want to see you do this test with an all cast bottom end 350 WITH RING GAP. since 95% of the time the failure is the rings butting up and breaking the piston. I know Richard Holdner doesn't do anything with any of the LS engines until he pulls them apart and gaps the rings but I have never seen him or you guys gap the rings on these old school small blocks for a test like this. So what will it take if the ring gap is not the issue? Inquiring minds want to know.

[@austin2466]

This!

[@hunterpetrovich1154]

They gapped rings on a stock 350 with a pro charger and made like 750

[@CarsandCats]

I've ran a bit of nitrous and I will tell you what kills engines is too much timing. This goes for boost as well! #2 with nitrous is too much fuel. Read your plugs. Look at the ring on the insulator for fuel, and the strap for timing.

[@shedred1967]

I've blown many a mind with an 850 on a buddies 305. Every motor loves airflow, even smaller bores. I used to think, that's too big. I was wrong, I put a Predator on a 289. Makes mad torque and power over a standard 600 or 750 holley or square bore. The predator flows up to 930 cfm, only as the motor needs or can take, so we found to put the largest carb you can fit under the hood and adjust jetting as needed. They're just air pumps...

[@roknroy1]

[@lenabeeman9041]

Can you guys do a video showing how to hookup a mild nitrous system to a small block with a holley 650DP carburetor, I believe my compression is about 10:1 on a 351w? My pistons are stock cast pistons.

[@rorydottin7143]

I am curious as to the rpm related rate of ignition advance for a nitrous small block.. slow, medium or fast.. eg. Slow: 4500-6000, medium: 3000-4500, fast: all in at 2500.

[@phillipthethird42]

I love watching Engine Masters, Haven't missed an episode. My DVR is " locked on" Even though I think I am old and wise, I'm wise enough to know that I don't know everything yet. There is always something to learn. And even if ya already know alot of this stuff, it's always good to review. Keep 'em coming. Thanks.

[@colonialroofingofnorthcaro441]

I love engines but I just don't know a lot about these things especially the lingo I don't understand what you mean when you say dual plane and single plane does that mean the manifold only has one plane that all the fuel is spread out over and the other one has two sides to it for that one side of the four Pistons and then the two sides on the other side for the other four Pistons I don't know what you mean by that

Manifold ? I thought Americans called them headers ? Well done sir, you may pass go and collect 200.

[@PatrickScottlxw]

You have the intake manifold and the exhaust manifolds which come on a stock engine in a car

[@daexion]

Manifolds and headers are different. Most of the people you hear talking about headers are talking about after-market modifications that replace the engine's manifold with a header.

[@SirEpifire]

Well here you'll have two very different parts sharing similar terminology. Intake manifold and (stock) exhaust manifolds. It only becomes exhaust headers when it's aftermarket, free-flowing tubes to replace the original log.
