Supercharged 670 V Twin Hits 10lbs of Boost!!! - First Ride

In today's video I get the dash & gauge mount made and installed, fill it up with gas, and take the Supercharged Independent Suspension 670cc V Twin Buggy / Mini Rock Bouncer / Mega Go Kart for its first drive. We aren't getting the power to the ground here so we're switching the driven pulley to a CV Tech 6000 series. We are making about 10lbs of boost in this video. Make sure you're subscribed so you don't miss the Boosted 70hp 670cc V Twin Engine Build video coming out next. We do have plans to take this engine to Performance 670 to dyno.

Don’t read the comments.....Making something out of nothing is more satisfying. Your builds are more realistic and is why I follow your channel. Keep smiling and enjoying life....the negative couch builders and DIY wannabes will always be there.

[@4486xxdawson]

Well said lol im backyard builder and to each thier own , but he doesnt need to do what his negitive nellies say , i like that he did it with a 670 because not everyone has access to nbike motors . I picked up a dazon 250 china buggy cheep and modded it to fit a gs 750 but kept the reverse gear box so i still got reverse and 5 speeds , getting close to a test ride now

WOW!!!!! This is incredible!!!! Just from the little drive when you were saying the belt was slipping and not at its full potential it looked CRAZY fun!!!! Keep it up!!

[@geoffreyjones2000]

I would consider using a carburetor that has an accelerator pump to compensate for the manifold vacuum drop at full initial acceleration... love the build, sir

[@zuestoots5176]

Or an engine more suitable for that application.

[@Splungers]

How would the carburetor see a vacuum drop-when air is mechanically being drawn thru it by a supercharger??

[@knowbull5hit590]

Splungers when you stab the throttle really quick the butterfly/valve opens faster than air can be drawn through it

[@jasonrussell3022]

It looks beautiful. I'd add a spall net or some ballistic steel plate to the back of the seat area just incase you have a rod go flying, though. 8000rpm is no joke.

Same with the belt

Your right

those aftermarket rods won't break, and IF they did, they'd break in 2 and hang in there, not come flying out.

Definitely impressed with how far you have come as a builder over the years. Been watching your channel for a long time and you have come a long way! This is a sweet little buggy! Looks like a ton of fun!

[@georgegeorge7847]

Keep doing what you’re doing. If you do what everyone tells you to do, you’re no different than a lot of the guys on KZbin that are doing the same old thing. Your videos are awesome, they’re interesting, and people can learn something from them. It would’ve been easier to do it a bunch of different ways, but it would’ve been boring too. Keep up the great content, have fun doing it, and God bless.

[@timelson6659]

Congratulations on the first ride. That thing looks sick! Can't imagine riding it. Looks amazing brother!

[@martyduffy2539]

Engine sounds fantastic. You are building really quality pieces. Don't change anything about the engine. Great job. Custom buggy builds might be a great business for Red Beards Garage. Selling frames, rollers, turn key buggies. Very cool. Can't wait for next episode!!

[@drewtooker4243]

Amen man. The boosted 670 deserves to live. It’s different which is why it’s interesting. Motorcycle engine buggies have been done countless times

[@roypatterson9910]

I wish I had the money and the tools to build something like this and other things. I'm good at building things, and I used to have dirt bikes, a go-kart, four wheelers and snowmobiles. I really miss riding and having fun! 😦

[@kanaleri]

Waited so long for this build to get done 😁👍👍👍👍👍

[@TrojanHorse1959]

Great video and short test run, thank you! Red Beard, we used to use Ford smog pumps off of the '80s to '90s Fords for crankcase evacuation pumps on supercharged or turbocharged engines. They work fairly well for that purpose. One of those may help alleviate the dipstick blowout issue and it will help seal up the bottom end of the engine, providing many benefits. Research it and see what you think, it may be just what you need or that engine.

[@FlexMoePower]

How does this guy not have a million sub.s Help this channel get there. Amazing detail & knowledge sharing. Keep it up!

[@chrisweihe9598]

That is one awesome buggy. I like the fact that it is very unique. People will see a "lawn mower" engine for power so there expectations will be low. Then when you fire it up and rip it they will love it. I think it sounds wicked to.

Belt slippage is the best for a first run...that way your assistant doesnt have to pick up parts that flew off...we usually got 10 min of run time for every 10 hours of fabrication until we built a strong enough driveline. (750cc sport bike in sand rail frame)

[@DavidM2002]

I'm really glad to hear you address the motorcycle engine option and why you didn't go that route. Good on you and for the reasons that you stated. That is so important.

I freaking love this thing from its first tack weld to where it's at now!! My favorite will always be the manco deuce but this is a pure from hand made rig. It's crazy to me that some people think the 670 wouldn't move it I had a neighbor that built a buggy very similar to this in size and everything about it and he used a really built 420 predator and that thing moved it like crazy.

First let me say that is a freakin’ amazing buggy!!! Wishing I had one!!! The best reason to run N in your shocks is that it is an inert gas and will not interact with metal or anything else. Oxygen is the ultimate oxidizer. Besides facilitating corrosion, it will make things like grease and oil combust!

and it doesn't expand/ contract, changing your pre load too. New cars come with nitrogen in the tires to reduce pressure fluctuations at temperature
