Our test engine is a 750-horsepower, 496ci big-block Chevy, but the data we gathered is relevant for any engine down to about 300 horsepower.
One small-block Mopar engine is a 410ci stroker, while the other is a 367ci stocker with an overbore.
So are you into low-end grunt, or top-rpm horsepower? On this episode of Engine Masters presented by Amsoil, find out if you can stuff 25 psi of boost into a cast-piston, stock-crank short-block and have it live! The guys from Engine Masters, presented by AMSOIL, fit the COVID-350 with progressively shorter header collectors to see the effect of a little more piping. In this episode of Engine Masters, presented by Amsoil, we answer that questi, Dual quads! To find out, we're swapping pipes on our run-of-the-mill 351 Ford, which makes about 400 hp, and to richen the pot we're also testing out turbo vs. straight-through mufflers and Y-pipe vs. a 90-degree merge. This episode of Engine Masters presented by AMSOIL reinforces the fact that Steve Dulcich is not just the guy in the back of the dyno room—he’s a legit engine master. It's a super common problem, but people often. Come find out as we test and tune our way to some pretty impressive results.
And you won’t question that after you see his homegrown porting job on a set of Edelbrock aluminum cylinder heads for a small-block Mopar pick up a whopping 92 hp!
We bolt four different types of cooling fans onto our 350 small-block Chevy, all with different designs and material. On this episode of Engine Masters presented by AMSOIL and supported by Mr. Gasket and Earl’s Vapor Guard, we will spell out the differences between a hydraulic roller cam setup and a low bucks on the old-school flat-tappet cam. In this episode of Engine Masters presented by AMSOIL and sponsored by Mr. Gasket and Earl’s Vapor Guard, we explore whether the price of a muffler makes a difference when it comes to performance.
- Engine Masters Ep. Testing Power Loss From Dents. Our special guest engine is the Mopar 360 small-block V8 from Episodes 3 and 4 of Roadkill Garage, where we plucked it from a 1975 Dodge truck and slapped it into a 1970 Dodge Challenger.
You’ve known and loved the 440 for as long as we have, and haven’t been able to afford a proper muscle car 440 in just as long. Roots, Paxton vs. Weiand. Less Weight to Rotate!! Does the faster swipe past TDC of the shorter rods make all the difference? Engine Masters is supported by Earl’s Vapor Guard hose, Mr. Gasket, Auto Meter, and Permatex. Both of these setups proved super effective and we’d encourage you to duplicate them, but the episode also addresses the age-old questions about torque versus horsepower and how they are affected by parts selection and rpm—as well as how they might need to be set up in a car. What’s the real difference in power between mufflers that cost $40 each versus $100 each?
Forging a ultra great bowie knife from a semi truck leaf spring. Got a solid cam? This time on Engine Masters, presented by AMSOIL, we dive into what effect changes to your intake manifold's plenum volume will have on your motor.
Engine Masters is supported by Mr. Gasket and Earl's Vapor Guard. The dyno is here to find out. Solid. While we’re at it, we’ll find out which intake makes the most power on nitrous.
This time on Engine Masters presented by AMSOIL, we look at the two most affordable implements of boost from SummitRacing.com: a Paxton Novi 1200 blow-through-carburetor cen, You're sitting around with your typical street/strip V-8 and wondering, should I get 2.5-inch-diameter exhaust pipes and mufflers, or should I go 3-inch? Will it go or will it blow? In this episode of Engine Masters presented by AMSOIL, we again look to our loyal fan base to feed us ideas of power tests they want to see.
That’s the good news. 7.
You may be in for a surprise. Find out in jaw-dropping fashion on this episode of Engine Masters presented by AMSOIL.
Will one small-block make more power than the other based on inherent design superiority? We even throw on an alternator under load just to drive the point home. Next, they pull the turbo to build it N/A with heads, a cam, and an intake, and then finally hang the turbo back onto the newly built mill. The Dodge LA-engine-based 408 is a complete crate engine from BluePrint Engines—we just added an Edelbrock Performer RPM intake manifold, Holley carb, and MSD ignition.
Building off the baseline of the naturally aspirated motor, they pull big numbers with just an intercooled turbo setup. Perfect process, the charm of machine！Let's study together！, RC ADVENTURES - OVERKiLL PUTS CHAiNS ON PiNKY ~ MUDDY SCALE 4x4 TRUCKS. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
You think the bigger engine makes far more horsepower? We find out using a basic 5.3L GM LS3 engine then precisely spell out the effect these exhaust-system modifications have on horsepower and torque. On this episode of Engine Masters, the guys take a stab at an internet myth of cylinder head size killing torque, per engine displacement.
