Good to find someone who actually shares some knowledge, thank you sir
Thank U Sir. I'm just trying to pass along my knowledge before I'm gone and its lost. :)
Holy smoke! That's amazing power! I am very impressed!
Thank You Sir :)
Pontiac’s Rule !!
GOD BLESS MR. PONTIAC !
B & R Racing brought me hair..I was bald headed before...🥝✔️
I think this makes you the new
" Dyno Don " lol.
Ha Ha Ive been called worse LOL.
Love the REAL pontiac content. Awesome cylinder heads
Thank U :)
Does your shop do motor swaps? I'm interested in having my 06 Range Rover motor swapped out.
We do engine swaps for customers we build an engine for. We do not do any swaps where the customer provides the engine. We have been burnt to many times with poorly built engines we did not do.
@@DonJohnstonDCIMotorsports so no LS swap, unless it's a brand new motor or will you rebuild a used LS?
Hmmmm. What gear was that pull in?
High gear T400
I'm originally from a small town near your shop called Brimfield and was a big pontiac nut back in the 80s. You didn't happen to have a 74 gto in 80s and possibly know a walt Bauer or Mark Busher did you?
I did have a 74 GTO Blue with black interior but never raced it. The names sound familiar, but cant say I know them.
Beautiful car, impressive literature on the engine. Nice work on the video
Thank You !!!! Thanks for following, check out our Bench Racing Podcast every Wednesday from 7PM to 8PM Eastern time.
I am hoping that within a year I will be ready to seriously talk to you about building me a motor with this type of power. It will be part of a full Restomod of my '68 Firebird. I sent you an email a few days ago through your website. Amazing stuff....very exciting RA V!
Thank You sir for following us and the KUDOS. It will be my pleasure to make your dream come true. Me and the DCI Motorsports Team are very proud of their accomplishments with the RA5 program. We are still developing and learning, but making good progress :)
Don , it's Robert from Australia 🇦🇺 what Cu Inch is this Engine Please 🙏 Can't be a 455 cu inch ???
Awesome Combination 👌 😅
Cheers 🍻 Don
Hey sir how are you, I’m hoping to get a hold of you so that I can get some pricing on a rebuild
You can email us at dcimotorsports@sbcglobal.net. Just let me know what kind of build you would like and what your going to use it for and I will send you an estimate. Thanks for following and please subscribe if you haven't already .
Very narrow lobe centre line Don .
106 to fill those cylinders.
Huge amount of torque @ the wheels.
Tight makes TQ 🙂
@dcimotorsports1111
True . I had a 250 Xflow ford engine l built up 4 economy in 1999 . From memory l had a 105 lobe centre. Was on LPG increased mileage over Petrol ⛽️/ Gas by 25/30 % .
So on LPG with that Cam it would burn off the same vehicle with injection rail .
They had a 3 speed auto & l a 5 speed manual. Run out of Puff @ 4500 rpm
That is amazing response! I missed it the first time I watched the pull. It was over before I knew it. Talk about lightning fast. And all nicely tucked away under hood. I need to be alone for a bit. Cheers
Ha Ha 😃
Gr8 Power. How much @ the Fly Wheel Don . HP & TQ .
Robert 🇦🇺 Australia 🇦🇺
A rough estimate is 750 to 770 HP and 800 TQ + or -
@@dcimotorsports1111
Thx Don . Robert Australia 🇦🇺
How many Cu Inch. I can't recall. And is this the Engine with the very narrow lobe centre line ? Like 106 or 108 ?
@@Robert-mn8gc 511 with 11 to 1 compression, yes 106 LS. So really torquey and more TQ than HP.
Don great stuff, hope to see you soon, was out to your shop a few times on long test drives it was always locked up , but us old guys deserve to work when we feel like it, love ya man
Thank You and Back at ya :)
430 cfm? Thats a ton of flow!!!
As cast they are 400 CFM and so far max effort porting we have seen 530 CFM which is insane for a Pontiac head :)
WOW ! THAT CAR NEEDS A M22 MUNCIE ! PAUL CANGIALOSI HAS ALL THE GOODIES FOR THE INTERNALS!
I have seen this video for the first time just now.
I'm going to share it with many others to prove that a Pontiac can make more torque than horse power.
That has always been the debate.
Glad you caught it. This is a factory 2 bolt main 455 block. It does have a forged crank and rods. Its been as high as 8,000 rpm several times 😝
U probably need 2 under stand that this was " Camshaft Related "
106 lobe centre . Not sure our much HP & TQ on the Dyno ?
I am Australian & have been looking @ Dons Pontiac Engines 4 about 2 yrs , maybe a little more .
Called Don a few days back from down under ( Australia 🇦🇺)
4 u Americans who might be thinking about a Pontiac give him a call 📞 & we spoke 4 a very long time.
Don is one really decent guy & u won't be disappointed 👏 👌
Kind & Humble .
Would love ❤️ 2 see this car down the drag strip .
Thank You Sir for the Kudos and kind words. I am blessed and feel very fortunate for my God given talent. Come hang out with us every Wednesday on our Bench Racing Podcast from7PM to 8PM Eastern time. @@Robert-mn8gc
I have known Don for over 30 years, had a shop next to his old shop in mogadore ohio, he really is the real deal, he knows more about pontiac v8s than anybody, and is not bad with others, just want all of you to know he is not making up things to sell you something, he really does know this stuff, and he is 10 times smarter than scotty kilmer, I can not believe anybody even trusts him ha ha
Hi Jim, its been a minute or two. Long time no see. Thank you for the kind words and support sir.
738 on torque in a car that small , has got to be a "seat of the pants" feeling like no other.
Its a hand full on the street for sure. It will spin the tires pretty easily in high gear at 70 MPH. Just mat it and hang on 😂😛
@@dcimotorsports1111
I seem to recall you making a video of another firebird that did the same thing.
Ha Ha ya but that one isn't as violent as the orange one is LOL. Had to keep that one tamed down a little for the wife. @@phillipthethird42
When I first read the title, I was looking for a chief many horses, but a 455 OEM block? nice.
Thanks for following !!! Ya the factory block is actually pretty strong. Its biggest down falls are the one lifter bore area and not being able to bore it over 4.250. Even then we can only bore a select few that much with hard block.
I've been a Pontiac man ever since my Father had a 68 Catalina, to pull our 12 Terry, back in '73... Keep posting your interesting Poncho, and other High HP videos. Thanks.@@dcimotorsports1111
