Happy Thanksgiving young man, thankful for your hard work and testing.

[@johnnyringo35]

I'm thankful in this day for this man's videos. Happy Turkey overload day ....

[@richardholdener1727]

Same to you!

[@DSRE535]

Id love to back to back test a typical NA ring gap like .018 to a big N20 ring like .028-.032 gap, then test it against a Gapless top ring and also test the blow by

[@leebrady6326]

Just the difference between .017" to .030" at around 300hp with 9 to 1 and 12 to 1.. Then NO gap..??

would be a good test

Happy Thanksgiving Richard!!!

Hey Richard have you ever tested Two roots blower on the same engine. Say does like two m90s on top of eachother or side by side equal having like an "m180" displacement of a blower? Happy Thanksgiving and thanks for all the knowledge

[@troymecey]

I was thinking of a triangle pattern maybe?

[@richardholdener1727]

two on top of each other is different than two side by side

[@thundermountainatv]

Smoked both turkey and ham … using mesquite wood … yum

[@richardholdener1727]

sounds good

Happy turkey day. Frying turkey. I was always wondering about ring gap

[@garnerblair5179]

Id like to see you do miller-cycle with the m90 4.8 .

[@leebrady6326]

Happy Thanksgiving.. Sooo why does the stock piston make more power than a forged piston.. Is it due to the weight ?? How much difference on a 300hp motor...?

My engine guy has set my engine which is boosted 413 gen4 LS top ring at .030 2nd at .040 top oil ring at .035 and lower oil ring at .028 he told me getting compression caught between the top and second ring is bad news and will take the top of the piston off, he said I've got to run vac pump

[@richardholdener1727]

The 1543-hp Big Bang 6.0l at 29 psi ran .032 gap on top and 2nd ring (.040 would be huge)and stock oil rings (they don't get much heat like the other two)

[@markmetzung6648]

Could you do dyno testing on a y pipe vs dual exhaust? The difference in power between the two?

[@richardholdener1727]

I want to

[@user-vy9mo5bg9e]

Subaru engine pistons je, thermal gap 10 ares, boost 2 bar, garrett 35, how to make a gap in the rings

[@rickseeman5679]

There is an SAE spec on new engines.

smoking

[@user-by1io4fq3j]

I'm going to put two GT45 on my 5.3

[@richardholdener1727]

that is a lot-unless you are building a 1500-hp drag race motor

[@kevinwest3689]

Man im learning so much, know if i could just afford to implement it. Anybody want to Buy some plasma? Lol
