LSA 4.8 Blower RESULTS with worlds most amazing intercooler setup

[@MegaFPVFlyer]

I complained about this build not being sloppy enough before, I think this makes up for it

[@james10739]

Should have been and old used hose

[@ntwtransam]

Thought it was strange that Lowe’s renamed the 3/4” garden hose to sloppy stage II intercooler piping. Now I Know why

[@williamzoom]

The price of 3/4 garden hose just went up :)

[@PipVanWinkle]

Time to buy some stocks...

[@64c20stroker]

I come over here from Cletus that doesn't have a budget and see this more on my level. Love it haha.

[@e-feezy2507]

On my LSA blower I was able to pick up a pound of boost just by backing off the bypass blade stop. Sometimes from the factory the blade will be slightly cracked open from sitting on the stop when closed creating a small boost leak. Another thing I did was run the vaccum line on the vaccum reffrence side of the bypass actuator to the boost/vaccum source on the blower lid instead of the vaccum only source on the snout. Because the spring in the actuator is not very strong, some people suggest boost pressures above 10 psi can push against the bypass blade cracking the bypass back open slightly. The boost pressure should help keep the bypass slammed shut and will still funtinon the same. Something worth trying. Enjoyed the video!

IDK how this channel doesn't have more subs

[@MyLonewolf25]

Matt little plumbing tip Always have the inlet be the lowest point That way the cooling surface always has liquid against it Without enough flow there’s the chance if you plumb top down that air pockets could develop

[@familymann1956]

Hey Matt I’m a big fan I like how you take your time to get back to your fans I know there’s a lot of comments to read through but I just want to thank you for responding to your fans I kept trying to get a guy to respond to me on another channel so I just watch you I have learned so much from you thank you so much if you have any extra parts to donate let me know you are so popular you get so much donated to you lol I thought i would ask

[@just_another_gearhead]

I just zoned out for 3 minutes on that intro. All I could think of was Mortal Kombat on Sega or that 80's movie American Ninja. Thanks for taking me back to my earlies 90's childhood dude

" IT MAKES THE LS7 LOOK LIKE A PIECE OF SHIT" yes my master, you said it well.

[@Aseutester]

What?! the LS7 is NA from the Factory!

[@CP110]

@@Aseutester 12k for a LS7 crate motor compared to like 3k including the blower and the motor that's 4x cheaper has more tq earlier in the rev range.

[@ericperry4934]

What cam . Underdrive pulley? How many total psi? What is total fuel pressure? What is spark /timing*? What did you do for supercharge polly to fit . What supercharger grades ?

[@aaronjamessimons1]

Favorite quote " it will blitz third gear" awesome. Love it,

[@mitchmixon6748]

The boost a pumps work well on secondary pumps that aren't coming on all of the time, but I've seen a few instances of the boost a pumps shelling out pumps pretty quickly on single pump setups. If you really only have a AEM 320 in there personally I'd put the newest version of Walbro's "485" since they flow quite a bit more.

[@ANDYblacks13]

good results, been subbed years the content is still awesome, the nitrous scooby video is an all time fav,anyone who watchs that and don't laugh is just dead inside

[@needleonthevinyl]

Gates makes belts specifically designed for supercharger use, available in a lot of 6-rib sizes. The gates part number will be "K060xxxRPM", with the xxx number coming from the advance auto "xxxK6" belt part number you're running right now (assuming it's a driveworks branded belt)

[@SloppyMechanics]

Yes they only have them in the sizes larger and smaller than what I am running. Lol

[@rossjensen6839]

i read this on the sloppy page. didn't think you would actually do it lol.

[@ryanaxberg9263]

you must not watch many of his videos

[@camdavies5530]

Matt's good like that unlike a lot of people he'll actually follow through with a lot of the ideas he has

[@TrampusWingo]

Lots of little nugs of information in this one. Thanks for that. Camera guy was funny as fuck as well. Excited to see this mamma jam making the noises, and doing the things!

[@Mikeywil0003]

Damn. That thing makes some decent power. I am curious if you will be able to achieve garden hose temps once you have the tank in the car. Congrats on building yourself a Sloppy Datsun CTS-V that makes just as much power as a stock 2nd gen CTS-V, but with 1.4 less liters.

[@EliteHydronics.]

as one plumber to another.... you did good man ;)

[@o2boutdoors]

Intercooled by municipal/PUD.

I love absolutely everything about this. This is exactly what I want to try to build for my 79 camaro. perfect street-strip setup.

[@johnparrish9215]

I never imagined a 4.8 would be a low-end torque beast but here we are.

[@macro820]

Feed the top so the warm coolant gets hit first then the coolest coolant can cool the already semi cooled air. Hope that makes sense but that's my logic.

[@corystansbury]

Crossflow ftw.

[@3rdGenGuy]

The chevy engineering drawing says the colder fluid shoulds go into the bottom first. don't know why but i assume GM picked the right one.

[@corystansbury]

@@3rdGenGuy I don't know the internal flow path of that blower. If the air goes up, makes a 180, then goes down through the bricks, that would make sense. I'm sure GM got it right.

[@jamesphillips6793]

It keeps the air out going through the bottom inlet First..

[@ltethan649]

correct, you want the coldest air to touch the coldest water, heat transfers by temperature diferential

[@vwbr3nt]

I absolutely love the “well....actually it made this.... so.... Don’t BS me. 😍

[@mhn3773]

This is the shit I Subed for! I miss the dirty fairmont. Long live the Fastiva!

[@GnarshredProductions]

a little trick me and a friend figured out to keep belts from slipping is to cut grooves in the pulley with a high speed cut off wheel or dremel or something so it basically digs into the belt to hold it. He has a 2.3l whipple terminator cobra and 24psi boost it doesn't have any belt slip at all now.

[@kurtd8396]

I'd really like to see you put a Cobalt ss heat exchanger res on this thing. Why? They are tiny, the exact opposite of that trunk mount you've been avoiding. Seeing how that set up performs compared to something else would be interesting to me.

[@LoneRevD]

Can't wait for the in car stuff, this will be exciting lol... The intercooling was everything I expect of sloppy and more.. Tuned in... 😆

[@jlkelly304]

Awesome! Now just get a trailer with a kiddy pool on it and you are set haha

[@kiltedsaint]

Thank you. Now I know what the kids and I are going to do. 05 crapalier sedan 4.8/t56. I already have the 4.8 and the zl1 hat and core and lsa blower.

[@tomolu5]

I love that you cut the discharge hose the length of the car for future use lol.

[@wobblysauce]

No need to waste the hose.

[@JyveKilla]

Matts half committed to metric. Can talk cc for injector size and engine capacity in litres but needs psi for boost plus of course Frankenstein for temp.

[@SloppyMechanics]

Lol I try to cover it all because people will complain if I say 200 kpa

[@JyveKilla]

@@SloppyMechanics I dare you to do a whole video in metric just to mess with everyone. 😂

[@TheBrokenLife]

As an engineer, the English measurement system pains me deeply. As an American, pressure in KPA and temp in C are things I just cannot process. It's like my freedom nerve is intrinsically calibrated against it.

[@cread80dsflkdsh]

At least he doesn't give the power results in kilo watts I would definitely be lost. Just like if I got my electric bill in horse power.

You have a Dyno, you can test top vs bottom cold water feed, amiright

[@HellTriX]

+Sloppy Mechanics I'd love to see an inline booster pump. I currently have a wire mod stock pump feeding an inline Walbro GSL392-400-939 up in the engine bay and I am kind of shocked how much fuel I have. It was suppose to be a temporary solution that is not going anywhere any time soon. Not sure where it runs out because I can't afford to turn the boost all the way up yet (glass tranny subaru).

[@Itsme-mx5tl]

thats a BIG hose you got Matt!

[@ladams00]

That hose arrangement reminds me of these big gun CB guys building 10kw linear amps with garden hose cooled 50 ohm dummy loads 😉

[@michaelsurran9517]

im hoping that oil blow by in the exhaust will quench the impellars of the super charger the temp change quite possibly destroyed your bushings in there

With 8 1300cc injectors you should be at about 50% duty cycle.

[@AT_motors]

Damn those are some impressive numbers. Hell yea, congrats!

[@LynnTwinCustoms513]

You shall be rowing through them short gears now! 👍🏻

[@dilsher12]

What size garden hose did you use ? How many GPH was the faucet rated at ? Think if you would've been more efficient to drain it back into the sink instead of the sump ?

[@mbda1]

and put a screen on the hose and dump a few bags of ice in the sink and fully recirculate

[@jasondeshay]

This is an amazing build

[@hackjobhotrodshop5075]

Did it pick any HP up with more timing? Ever try? I have a m122 on a 6.0 with 11 degrees on e85, BTR stage 2 blower cam, 10PSI, 140 IAT with a t56, 80lbers. It picked up 3mph on 93 from 9 degrees to 11 degrees, went e85 and trapped 120mph, put 13 degrees in and it slowed to 117. It should take like at least 15 degrees but it didn't like it. Yeah the blower stick cars are brutal. I can't hook in anything over 50% throttle below 4th gear. I also run a 2 step and no lift shift the car which makes it even more brutal. I've twisted slip yokes, blown posi's and shattered 30 spline axle shafts.

[@CP110]

The rod ratios on 4.8 are pretty high so they stay @ TDC for more degrees of crank rotation than other LS based engines. are you a 6.0 truck block or LS3? whats ur 6.0's rod ratio? the higher the rod ratio the more it will like advanced timing

[@MonkeyFabGarage]

Great stuff Matt.

[@hill_customs6807]

I was thinking of using this hose. But it's rated at 80° max temp. I am not running a icebox... I think my temps might be over that. Lol

[@PsychoAlfaSchizo]

I was expecting a 9 second pass by now, but hell, this is almost better.

[@jkontons6340]

Dear Matt, I know Jamie's truck is an auto but with the small framed turbo, how would you say the power is compared down low. It looks like the blower hits pretty hard down low.

[@SloppyMechanics]

Yeah roots blowers are king of bottom end, not high HP but average power and torque through the roof

[@Gearbhall]

I remember this being suggested to you, I was waiting to see if you actually did it.

[@ArmoTypeArt]

Does it really matter if your TPS is at 84% rather than 100%? Maybe that’s why A/F is all over the place ?

[@SloppyMechanics]

Drive by wire always shows 20/80 as lower and upper limit

[@macro820]

You should replace the knock sensors

[@MegaYogib]

Have you looked into the weapon X lid spacer kit?? Heard it gives another 20 hp or close.

[@SloppyMechanics]

yep i have seen a ton of things, i wanted to drop on the blower as is and see how it does, there is porting and plenums and interchillers and meth and nitrous etc all "add ons" i wanted to know what it would do as is

[@flatbrokemodsquad4241]

Its gonna be turbo verses supercharged 6.0s with our Broncos Rob.

[@MegaYogib]

Alan Schneider well he has the 4.8. So we will have a displacement advantage. But a serious weight disadvantage.We are gonna get crap for LS swapping our bronco,s. But hey. What can do these power numbers for the money$$$$$$ All about the money&bang for buck. of course your all wheel drive twin turbo 4.8l cougar will raise eyebrows someday.

[@joshadams1056]

Can you do bench tunes im looking into buying same supercharger for my 4.8

[@thomasmccall1076]

U can look up fasterproms Cletus tuner he just just a blower then he ported it check it out??

[@CaptnCall]

I understand that Stoic for E85 is suppose to be 9.6. So, when you say that your AFR's on the pulls are ranging from 11's to 12's and then running of fuel pump on top going to 13's, It looks like you are still using gasoline AFR's. Since your alcohol content is about 80% shouldn't they be lower? What am I not understanding here?

[@SloppyMechanics]

Gasoline wise and still shows gasoline air fuels even with alcohol and stock ecu still commands gasoline air fuels so that is what I use.
