Some great footage on there!!!
Small clip of a 68 Camaro drag car that pulls some big wheelstands. Later in the video you see it with a MASSIVE!! blower on it.
P.S. - Be patient for the blower part. - Авто та транспорт
LOL I think it's a roots blower from an EMD locomotive 567 prime mover. The funny thing is that if I'm right, that blower was made by GM. LOL
So it's where it belongs 😂
EMD was indeed owned by GM at the time
It was I remember hearing about it
"EXPLAIN...THE GIANT...BLOWER."
And then my mouth freaking flies open at 2:25...this guy is just too cool!! XD
Found out about this on TikTok, insane😂

jdoggybizzle told you where the blower came from umpteen pages ago. It's from an EMD 567 or 645 locomotive engine. It's a scavenging blower only and does not boost cylinder pressure. All it does is blow the spent gases out of the cylinder and provide a fresh air charge for the next cycle. It is a 2 stroke diesel with ported cylinder liners and is a terrific engine and very reliable
Blower is off an EMD 645 diesel engine, found in SD-40-2 diesel locomotives
Sd40-2s aren't blown
@@pootispiker2866 what locomotive is it from?
@@jack_orourke_sb Other comments suggest it's not from a locomotive but from an air compressor instead, which looks untrue. But given it's in the US there's an almost endless list of locomotives it could have come from
That giant blower is the coolset thing I've ever seen, looks like a caricature. I would love to have heard it run, for the second or two that it did. Thanks for this one!
if that motor could sustain the boost from that blower, imagine the torque that car will produce, wtf i really hope they get it going...some how
it’s 12 years later. possibly.
@@asleepyyoutuber doubt it :( can’t find a pass on the internet
Yea tik tok or UA-cam this is the only clip
What a down to earth kind of fellow
Woo man, that's a blower..killed 2 head gaskets too lol damn
@Inklebonker1 Yup, they used it to solve the problem of engines running at a limited altitude due to the thinning of air but since the supercharger compresses air it greatly increased their ranges.
Close, but when it comes to a blown head gasket it is the pressure that counts. Your comparison of a straw and a coffee can are spot on when considering what it takes to sustain combustion at a given boost level and at the same pressure there is a drastic difference in the volume of air they are transferring. However, when it comes to head gaskets, the surface area exposed to the cylinder bore is constant and volume has no effect, just pressure.
Thanks to that good roll cage you saved your self about 10 G's
Blowers have been used for 70 Plus years on many different modes of transportation. The blowers that most people are familiar with such as the 6-71 and 8-71 all the way up to the 12-71 were originally on Detroit Diesel motors. The 6-71 was used on the 6V71 Detroit 2 stroke diesel engine and the 8-71 was used on the 8V71 Detroit diesel and so on. My father used to have an old Peterbilt with a supercharged 8V92 Detroit diesel. You can hear an old 2 stroke Detroit for miles. Very distinct sound
nothing better than the sound of a screamin jimmy
Amazing video That blower Is unbelievable. I would love to see it work. Thanks for posting.
@zachlutes I know you are right about the diesels, I am a diesel mechanic and have seen several of the old blowers you are talking about. Trust me, I know from experience that mine shaft blowers HAVE been used on hot rods, I have one myself.
Aerzen Positive Displacement Blowers (of the "Roots Blower" type design) have been manufactured since 1868 and today are highly developed standard production machines designed and adapted for a broad range of applications.
@68SSCAM That big block will get it turning, then the charger provides boost to the motor very quickly turning up the RPM's. Of course it will work, just the head bolts and everything else will stretch with that kind of boost put into it and cause catastrophic failure. If it was designed for a train, the diesel engine probably had at least 3/4" head bolts trying to hold it all together.
@68SSCAM they started it, but when they tried to rev it, lolz, they blew a headgasket!
Both head gaskets
Probably around 5-10 pounds, but its not the psi that matters... it's the cfm when it comes to boosting a motor. Think 10psi through a straw and 10psi through a coffe can......
Any updates on it? They ever take it down the road
@Inklebonker1 WW2 didn't have fighter jets just prop planes like the P-51
had this urban hill billies vhs got dust in though smh by far my favorite drag racing tape
"That huge blower to this car is what Dolly Parton is to music!" Awesome!
i have the dvd of this and the crazy blower. The dvd is called CRASH FEST and the guy did say the blower might have come from a freight train. Pretty crazy.
@Inklebonker1 Yes it was on planes. Acutally a rolls royce merlin motor. Used to increase speed and altitude.
Thanks for info! I know my example was basic, but I was trying to throw it in layman's terms for everyone.
hahahha this is MAD! I LOVE IT! makes me wonder if they even have a wheelie bar for this kind of power lol!
@dexter2433 planes used superchargers because they were more affective than turbos at higher altitude (p51 mustang, spitfire, p38 lightning)
@Inklebonker1 those old planes used either a turbocharger or a super - turbocharger set up...i dont know if they came first or trains
he said outlaw 10.5 so its running 2000 hp if i remember correct
@Inklebonker1 jets dont use superchargers. and the only WWII fighter jet i know about was the germans ME-262. No one else was using fighter jets at that time. There were some supercharged aircraft engines however. The P-51 had a blower on it. Im sure there were some more.
WICKED! these cars are insane.. Cant beat a v8.
@GeneralTJWillys Okay i was tired then but what i meant to say referred to the fact that the aircraft in ww2 were classified in mainly 2 categories the radial engine aircraft (lots of power less aerodynamically advanced, confined to lower altitude) and the v engine aircraft (adequate power great aerodynamics, and could fly at higher altitudes) they could fly at higher altitudes because they use superchargers. Superchargers and other types of forced induction are desighned _CONT_
the wheelie was at Ozark International Raceway in Rogersville, MO.. not sure where he is from though
loooooooow, que força bruta é essa!!!!!
@68SSCAM not quite. sure, it needs to be turned first, but have you ever had one of those things? you can turn them by hand easily. now, one that big is a different story, but the engine could still do it. theyre only hard to turn at higher speeds, where its already helping the engine out by giving it more air
i know exactly where that race track is at because me and my husband go to that race track on an occasion when we can it is located between Fordland and Rogersville MO and it is a fun track to go to
@soulfire22 From Wikipedia:
"The Roots design was commonly used on two-stroke diesel engines"
referring to Roots blowers.
at 1:12 when the car is at the starting line. You can see that the bars are already tweaked. You would think that someone would have noticed before then. I'm not blaming anyone, it's not like i haven't overlooked things in the past.
thats awesome when he said it blew both head gaskets lol. what the hell kind of boost would that be upwards of 100? 200?
@acekazel still shocked that it was a rolls royce merlin engine that was the first. but i do remember that turbo charging was horrid for fighter planes.
You can tell this dude is cool.
'67 this car hasn't any sidemarker lamp on the fenders or quarter panels and it has vent windows. 68 gille though.
The blower came off a EDM 567 Prime mover engine and those engines by the looks of it had not 1 but 2 of those blowers
@ramairgto72 Maybe not. It would have to have some enormous injectors but with the amount of fuel it would have to pump without running lean, I don't think a conventional ignition system to fire it. Plus everyone is talking about engine power to turn it? Try finding a starter that might tun it. Even a high torque would squirm at the thought of turning that sucker over.
well i just searched on google and looked at the EMD567 engine. its slightly smaller but it is indeed a train supercharger
@maxredgizmo what does that mean?
coisa linda este camaro!!
What happened to this car just this one video
if you don't believe me go on Google, the 67's front end doesn't match the Camaro in this video but the 68's does so its clearly a 68
@mazdaman222 supercharging was more effective for fighters at high altitude
@abcanimal yes u can in reverse
@MegaCamshaft my point being that it actually worked....kinda
@mannyalcorta nice, looked familiar, my dad used to have a 63 nova. which looks just like that.
Anyone else have no idea how to fix cars/build em but love to watch them?
@zietda2 i agree , to be a good rally driver , we need many guts , skills , and also intelligences ..but we dont have to hate the drag racer because they're good at their races ..i'm one of loeb's fans ..
Christ!!!! thats like an instant 2000hp at the RW in idle!!!
@bruce51501 He said they got it running with the huge blower....but as soon as they blipped the throttle...it blew out all the gaskets....and they never tried again.
Why not double or triple the headgaskets? Thats what I do why I cant keep headgaskets in anything
that blower is a car on its own...
@justadude83 would be "rotoscoping" mainly in programs like sony vegas and after effects :)
thats one impressive blower
You are a genious! Did you come up with that on your own? What makes you think that honestly?
that wagon in the beginning, any clue what year/ type?
2020🤘🏼 what happened to this car tho saw it years and years ago and nothing since
Idk what happened with that blower at least, but from what I can tell from another commenter who said it came off an EMD 645 diesel engine, that giant diesel (an EMD 16-645-E6) used two of those blowers to supply 16 cylinders each of 645 cubic inches displacement with the necessary air. Other models used a hybrid turbo-supercharger that was gear driven via centrifugal clutch at low RPM and went full exhaust gas driven at higher rpm (like above 500 rpm or something). These beasts made upwards of 4000 horsepower at their 950 rpm redline, that's like 23 to 24 thousand foot-pounds of torque, hella monstrous those were.
came off a train i thought jet engines were ridiculous, but thats crazy that they even make those
how much horsepower is that equal to?
Offthbadan You are exactly correct. '67's are round
Famous blower segment after 2:22
@abcanimal well no duh, they are front wheel drive
That's my dads old camaro. He sold it to Dan Navarro. It's a shame Mikey tried to take credit for the car. He did not own the car at the time.
@abcanimal because cars are made to have 4 tyres on the road :)
please find away to make that blower work man oh god hell with head gaskets wield them on
it didn't break the bar, there's a mount that the wheelie bar is bolted too that was broken or cracked before the race. Should have checked the car before he drove onto the starting line
@Inklebonker1 _CONT_ to force more air into the engine to prevent the engine from loosing power at high altitudes. At higher altitudes (doesn't matter if its a car or aircraft) air is thinner and the air fuel mixture in the engine becomes offset in a way that the engine does not produce enough power. Even right now i might be off on some facts because right now IM TIRED and don't feel like researching this thoroughly, so im just reciting from memory.
@68SSCAM I thought it was air planes. The inline 16 motors used on ww2 fighter jets used superchargers.
Jet? Supercharger? Hmmmmm
i saw the picture of this on psca projects
If it was off a freight train, that's a diesel, and would be more than that. Hell, my truck, stock, runs around 30lbs of boost. But you're 100% about it being more volume, not more pressure. HOWEVER, when it hits the restriction of the intake manifold, that air has nowhere to go as easily, and you'll get MUCH higher pressures. Think about putting your finger over a running garden hose.
@nicholas22288 why do you exactly need top fuel ?
like it's the best and most important race in the world -_-
This guy seems very nice. Thumb up if u agree!
lol, i want to see a vid of him describing the first fire with that big blower lol
Man HUGE blower!
@Inklebonker1 Contradiction in terms there. "Inline 16"....for one....eludes to a PISTON engine, not a "fighter JET".....and two.....the WWII fighters used mainly either V-12 Allison or Merlin piston engines or some type of radial piston engine. Just clearing the air. ;)
does anyone have any idea how much torque and horsepower the motor would haev with that fuckign freight blower!!
hahahahhaha right on bud.... if you ever get that "freight train" blower going ...PUT IT ON UA-cam!!
holy shit ive seen that photo so many times and always thought it was fake i look at it now and im just like OMG!
He also went to an old air force scrap yard he said, and found a twin F16 engine. and looked at his buddy earl and said this has to be stuck on my nova. lol
Sick CAMARo...
damn.. that thing is off a freight train or somethin haha
Me, an Iowan: Oh, come on there, bud. Can't just blow the head gaskets. Open that puppy right up and VAPORIZE them like a man.
You got no hairs on your cobs or What?
tht was sick
Turbo for what?
@acekazel I knew it!!! but i didn't know rolls royce pioneered that.
agreed...... ???
When you figure in the sheer weight of the screws inside that (what I think) ventilation blower as well the power to turn them with enough force that would not bog the engine (I see no gear reduction of any kind other then belt cog) and produce pressure you start to fall into bull shit!
Not to mention it looked like a injection hat sitting on top, the fuel would have to fall around 2 plus feet & still be in a mist to be combustive!
It's BS to people that know blowers, & I do!
It has a 1968 Camaro grille...
hondas just dont understand camaro's and t/a's, they will never have this problem for as they are front wheel drive

@Spikito and your point is??????????????????????
Since noone else did, the blower is at 2:30
@68SSCAM diesel trains?
Car guru sent me here
