Why does Pat look so... INTENSE when he's starting a dyno run? It's almost like... he ENJOYS thrashing on these motors... LMAO... seriously, love the content. I always seem to walk away entertained while having learned something.
Turned the stock crank in my bracket car with a 350 in it to 7000 for 10+ years. It still ran fine when we pulled it out but when we took it apart the pistons were falling apart 😂 built another one and it also has a stock crank In it. People really don’t give the gen 1 the respect it deserves since the ls came out. These are some very tough engines.
Makes me wonder about the Scat 9000 Cast Steel 3.48" cranks. They claim they can handle 500 hp but people say they've done okay to 600 hp with them. And I want to run a Weiand Supercharger on one but only to 6000 rpm max.
My 426 stroker, at 12.5:1 compression, was recently tuned for corn and man, what a performance difference! Can’t complain with a current pump price of $2.90/gal. either. Helps offset the reduction in fuel milage.
Nice work guys. Good power. I would have Decked the block and Torque plate honed. The torque would have been over 500 I'm guessing. But overall, nice build. Thanks for sharing. Take care, Ed.
I really think this engine would make more power with a 195-210cc competition ported afr head. Seen a test years ago in hot rod magazine where they lost 70hp stepping up from 200cc to a 235cc
Can’t beat those AFR heads, with a cam and 185s I gained 70HP on a SBF crate engine, was $2k less than a supercharger kit and performed almost 80% of the gain. Now if I even do decide to go supercharged it will be more on top of a really good base
Thanks for the build. E85 over race gas would seem to be the way to go. Easy to get good results 👌 Can't wait until next month when you post another new video.
Another great video, I've watched many over the last couple of years, I'm still not sure about cam timing. I assume that you use an offset bushing but I don't know the procedure, maybe a short video would help.
Do NOT use thread tape on engines. Its a Chev, GM headstud sealer is the stuff to use. Thread tape is less than ideal on plumbing,, I have seen it fill up engines full of coolant. Having been the E85 route it is far from as advertised. After a dyno making no more power than with avgas 100 it then sat in the shed for a couple of months and when stripped the bores were rusty, badly! I have never seen that with methanol engines and that too is hydroscopic. So I will now be [as per regs] be using 102 unleaded. Those SBC factory cast cranks are far stronger than you think. I have made near 500 on one with 12-1 and turned 7200 regularly road racing. Built a speedway sedan engine at similar and that turned 7000+ for a full season. I rebuilt an 80s injected Super Mod engine, a 327 large journal and it had done a LOT of work. Crack tested and reassembled with a modern cam. And has now done quite a deal more.And has factory rods as well I ran a cast [no steel ones] 351C crank for around 10 events with factory rods using 6800 max with no issues. All of these engines used good pistons In the 80s on a Sprintcar the 'good; engine had good crank, rods and pistons and the spare had good pistons, stock crank, rods and a 2 bolt block. That turned 7500+ on occasion and was used for two years with no issues. The good engine turned 8000 but hd too many issues. Both engines won features. That spare engine ended up in a sedan for a period after. Had been rebuilt and crack tested all ok. People make stupid power on LS cranks which are no better than a SBC crank.
7000 rpms with a stock crank. every circle track race night sees past 700 rpms. my .060 over 350, cast piston, cast stock crank, stock rods, has seen 7400 rpms with a flat tappet hydraulic cam.
@@shockracer well, it has less BTUs therefore going to use more of it there's no way around that. I've used it because my vehicles are supercharged and turbo and yes it goes good but just doesn't last. The cost comparison with consumption is a false economy.
with those heads, 220 cc intake AFR's and that compression, you should see 7500 rpms. the cam is wrong, too much lift on the exhaust side, you need more lift on the intake side. even in the gas test i would have used a 950 cfm carb.
I'd like to see the use of the ethanol / water azeotrope of about 95.4% ethanol and 4.6% water as the fuel - cheapest fuel available, zero fossil fuels. I recall working at Texaco where we'd laugh that adding up to 5% water into a gasoline blend, was the best way to improve octane. And using ethanol fuel from biomass (from our farmers, not gasoline or diesel fuel from international oil companies) is the best way, within our transportation sector - ie. in our vehicles, to reduce global warming. Much better than electric vehicles plugged into the inefficient, expensive electrical grid system.
I miss PowerBlock on Spike every Sunday. To think whoever (obviously I haven't watch since) bought out Spike and dropped PB but kept Bar Rescue. Just goes to show you they're idiots.
Why don't you show us how the convert conventional heads into direct-injection heads so we can put that on our vehicles Get more compression simply because we sprayed the fuel into the cylinder instead of in the intake
a 200CC on a 3.48 stroke 4.00 inch bore engine is a 7000RPM engine easy because of the flow they might be and the size of the ports are gonna need a single plane
Those heads are to be used with a 4.166-4.200 bore head gasket. If they had put dowel pins in heads and put their 4.060 head gasket on the head they would clearly see the fire rings are inside the combustion chamber's. AFR even says 1003 gaskets
As per AFR, the minimum bore size is 4.000 inch. They recommend the 1003 or 1014 so that you can put it on any small block Chevy. There’s no way they would’ve got it to run if the gasket didn’t seal and was inside the combustion chamber
@Steven Hoitz but they did not use a 1003 or 1014. If you have access to the heads they used put a 4.060 gasket on it with dowel pins then you will see. Just trying to help.
an engine does not care what fuel its burning as long as its got spark, fuel that's combustible and air, it will be happy to burn it and make power. the only thing that limits an engine is how its made. if the block can handle 1000hp before blowing up then thats what will happen. who would of imagined that an OLD engine would be running on corn juice and making that much power. but like i said, if it burns then an engine wont care what pow pow juice it has.
REMEMBER......BILL GRUMPY JENKINS REGULARLY....MADE OVER 700 HORSES ON TWO BOLT BLOCKS......MINE IS 630 ON A CAST CRANK.....FREYBERGER RUNS THEM ON NITROUS TO 700 AND BEYOND...
why?? they work. im going with a carb. i do not need EFI for a non daily driven car that didnt come with EFI unless its some high dollar build..and mine wont be...

"the cam only has a few hours of dyno time, no big deal" - I've used roller cams that's had thousands of passes and years of use, with hardly no wear. As long as the cam was well cared for and something wasn't beating the shit out of it, you can use them forever. As far as E85 goes, I buy it at the pump for $2.30-$2.80 per gallon (in my area as of Apr. 2023), then test it and mix whatever is needed (either Ethanol or gas) to make sure it is E85. Much cheaper than buying E85 "race fuel" ($8.20-$9.50 / Gal. in my area as of Apr. 2023). If you have a source for good Ethanol in your area for cheap, you can even mix your own E85 even cheaper. My questions is... Yes, making big power with a stock block and stock "cast" crank on a dyno chump, but how long is that thing going to last in a heavy drag car on a transbrake? OK, let's forget the transbrake, how long does it last in a heavy car (say 3200lbs), 1/4 mile at a time? My guess would be, not long!! So yes, fun on the dyno, practical?... probably not.
I ran a 350 stock cast crank in NHRA supper comp class for years at 7200 RPM in the lights run after run, stalled 5200 launched, shift point at 6500 RPM, ran through the lights 7200 RPM, that is a 2000 RPM variation start to finish line. in a 210 inch front engine dragster. this was in the 1980 to 1990 very low $ operation not as of todays cars makes no sense to run 8.90 ET.
FINALLY A 350 !!!! so tired of the low rpm 383 builds left over from the 90's and the over priced 421, 434 small blocks that are $20K. take notes high rpms is where its at!!
We use E85 from the common gas pump for our Circle Track 358. We Haven't noticed any gains from race E85 to the normal pump E85... we did notice a large $ savings using Pump E85 vs Race E85 and especially against 112vp race fuel.
Is the oil changed after first warmup/run in before power is measured? I am thinking about the 5-6 different assembly oils and engine oil in one big mixture, that cant be ideal when pushing the engine.
Lets just say I know how well pretty much a stock 355 can hold up to E85. I raced several years IMCA Hobbystocks and yes E85 was illegal but guess what I ran it with no modifications, The Engine was stock crank, rods, pistons with EQ heads 2.02 1.6 valves Roller tip rocers Edelbrock 2701 intake 1 inch adaptor 2 barrel Rochester carb Can't remember what size jets I ran but think it was mid 50's. The cam was very similar to L79 327 cam/602 crate cam. Mine was a Lunati cam in the Voodoo line. Ran between 32 to 36 degrees timing. would turn the motor every night between 7k to 7500K RPM. Never had a problem with it. Always wanted to Dyno it to see what it was putting out.
This build in the parking lot was one of my favorite episodes.
Same!
I do all my pulldowns outside nowadays because of that (when weather permits at least) It's good for the headspace to get back to nature
Glad you guys are still doing this stuff,nowadays everything thinks you can't make power without a "coyote " or "junkyard LS with ebay turbos" lol
I'm like you on that. I'm really tired of seeing Ls& Coyote swaps. Give me some old-school horsepower.

Nicely spotted, should really torque plate SBCs.
Pat built engines for NHRA teams... I think he knows what he's doing.

Living on a Dyno for a few pulls , is not living in a car for years under that abuse.
*Have any of you tried the C85??... I'm not going to say its the best thing in the world for power but its super clean!*
Ive run my stock 4v Cleveland crank to 9k several times ( pro comp meter ) no problem 😂. But im going to put in an Eagle next year

take A LOT of timing out of it LOL
I would like to see how much power can be made with cheaper 100 octane ll that can still be purchase from my local airport
Awesome episode, Dyno Mule needs a super charger and drop it in the 240SX
276 hp using swirl port heads is actually pretty good seeing a stock swirl port TBI 350 made a whopping 210 hp.
7000 rpms with a stock crank. every circle track race night sees past 700 rpms. my .060 over 350, cast piston, cast stock crank, stock rods, has seen 7400 rpms with a flat tappet hydraulic cam.

Eight inches 😮
Pat " that's exactly what I have: 😮😮😮
Need to raise compression. To race levels then you'll see the difference
Lots of E85..... Good race fuel, lousy daily driver efficiency.
If you're using E85 then you dont care about fuel mileage are efficiency. It's good for power and quenching knock because its a cold fuel
This is where fuel injection is great. You can have a race tune and an economical tune.
Almost like race fuel 🤣

Where E85 shines is with a rootes blower with no intercooler. Cools in nicely, thank you .

in an oval track engine the crank would last about 10 races of 100 laps....been there, done that. Stock rods with a 500g piston would failed first.

I doubt the sedan does it NA
Interesting. But id prefer to see 100hp/liter on pump gas
Besides a forged crank does not wear as fast as a cast .
