[@Pommeroj]

you should look up JB-Engine. That dude is a redblock mastermind.

[@marcinjedrol]

Will do! Thanks!

[@martinaugustsson1980]

It’s possible to build an 3.2 or 3.4 redblock engine 😊

[@liam878-ny9le]

great video, but the cheese...

[@marcinjedrol]

The cheeeeese

[@Mastermindyoung14]

No SHS Performance 16v+t?

[@marcinjedrol]

There are so many great examples that I’d need to make another vid hah. Thanks for suggestion!

[@darryljosephsmith2725]

I have a volvo station wagon 245dl and i want to find out who i can make it it have more power.

[@marcinjedrol]

I’m all in for learning and doing things by yourself!

[@cesarhanshoff2741]

The D24 is not very good for tuning unfortunately.

[@marcinjedrol]

@@cesarhanshoff2741 I think you can slap turbo / bigger turbo on these and they end up making a little more punch

[@cesarhanshoff2741]

@@marcinjedrol Yeah but the head is very brittle so it cant handle a lot hp reliably compared to a B230. The D24 has its charm thoe and is a true coal roller :)

[@tracklizard4018]

Up the boost and screw the pump. Beyond that it's not much you can do with that VW engine where a swap wouldn't just be better.

[@pelayorico]

my 940 is 613hp with a 8v head. im not impressed

[@willd4082]

The last one isnt really a red block its a custom block one off cnc custom head i have no idea what internal are but it more based of a b230 but definitely not one

[@marcinjedrol]

Isn’t it the redblock but filled with concrete? Thats how you reinforce blocks for insane powers

[@willd4082]

@@marcinjedrol no it's cast with no water jacket made for drag racing only it has no cooling system but very thick strong cylinder walls

[@tracklizard4018]

@@marcinjedrol afaik it's a billet or custom cast. Generally when you reach about 1000whp you go custom block.
