Steve - this is Aaron and I just wanted to say thanks for letting my brother use your dyno and thanks for the tech support - this was all truly appreciated !!
This is EXACTLY how the hobby and life in general should go. You passed on knowledge to those guys and in turn, you can tell made them so grateful that their creation came to life in front of them and was able to load it up in one piece and take it home. Thank you for giving them your time. Everyone is quick to jump when Cleetus or other big name youtube stars need/want something. Its another thing to help these average paying Joes and take time with them. In todays world, it seems engine shops have no time to help the average guys out, the guys paying full retail, not asking for a discount and will promote the heck out of you vs. the handout guys claiming they will until you stop giving them free stuff. Thank you for finding a balance in between.
Agree...those guys make enough as it is why give them free anything I dont care whos popular xxx views etc The little guys started this hobby and keep er going.
You just know that these fellas are gonna brag that Steve Morris dynod their engine! Can't beat the smiles off of them faces! (Yeah, if Steve dynod my engine, I'm smile like that too!) Great job building it fellas and Steve, as usual just a great guy!
Kudos to the builders, especially when he said they used your tech videos. Confirmation for them for a great build and you, Steve, for providing sound advice in your videos!
@@CoyoteFTW I have read that a 460 is the best big block platform to stroke due to the thickness of the block and the raised cam location compared to chevy
@@jasonamerica7618 Chevy has better head choices and more stroke. THe 460 is durable (and heavy) as an anvil though Had a mild nitrous 460 in an 85 5.0 back in the 80s.

@gordocarbo Kaase and Richard Holdner both have said 460 is the best stock block platform for a stroker. As far as heads go Kaase offers excellent heads so I don't think you're correct on that comment
the smile on those guys faces all because of you and your channel was priceless , your a helluva inspiration to more people than you know and this confirms it Great job Steve and keep the content coming
That 1978 Lincoln came with 166 HP..lol..My thought is that 584 HP and a train load of torque will make that Lincoln just cruise right down the pike !!!..Great engine build.
That was a really good video. The BBF is my favorite engine and I love to see the different combinations and results that they produce. Big thanks to Steve for letting the little guys live their dreams too.
I love the big horsepower big boost vids, but something about an old school engine like this brings back some good memories of my misspent youth. Great channel.
Kudos to the builders for building a monster of a motor, and kudos to Steve for sharing his years hard earned experience with us youtube folks for free!
Dudes smile was anything but fake, his cheeks musta hurt after this vid First start of a built motor is so frigging exciting. Like a baby crying for the first time and no risk of paying child support! lol
Look at the enthusiasm on their faces after he reads the plugs and they’re wrapping up the video. Like kids on Christmas morning. Man, what energy and excitement. Fantastic!
Nice job guys on the build, I would like to see that land yacht on the hub dyno lol. I'm impressed Steve took the time to help these guys out. Enjoyed seeing this back yard build and that guys face is gonna be sore from all those smiles. Steve making dreams come true.
Obviously we are all here because of the ridiculously powerful builds but it was refreshing to see Steve set these guys up with a dyno session and let us see it. Even seemed that he enjoyed it as well as being impressed with the results.
That is so cool the guy learned from video of Steve and you dyno it. The guy could not stop smiling an so happy you would dyno his engine for him. Great video. Thanks for sharing
Thank you for putting something semi-normal that an average person could afford on your Channel. Your other stuff is very cool but it's Out Of Reach for most average people. I thought I saw a big block Chrysler laying around in your shop somewhere before I would be interested to see what that did also
Great video of average guys, who still get service from one of the best engine builders anywhere. Steve is a decent humble man and those two fellows appear to be good guys too. I hope the really enjoy that engine!
The guy that was wearing your shirt he was happier and clam at high tide the other guy was so quiet he was probably thinking damn it didn't blow up on the dyno but damn that torque
Wow that should be a good street motor ..Those big block Fords can make good power ..i was always impressed how they did in jet boats . A good set of cylinder heads makes these engines shine. Yes the Steve tech is education .
That's the kind of stuff that makes me smile.. Dude was beaming! And rightly so.. That's a very nice build.. Not everything has to make a million horse-torques..
Quality tuning by a professional. Seems like those guys that brought the motor in knew what they were doing as well and have done their research that saves everyone alot of time.
Awesome video those guys did a good job they build in a conservative way and make good power 👍 and Steve thanks for sharing with us and helping those guys their smile was priceless
I had to laugh seeing the permanent grin that guy had on his face, definitely what I imagine I would look like if I got to hang out with Steve Morris in his shop. Great stuff.
If they get a taller air filter element plus a filtered lid I think they would gain back at least half the horsepower loss. Also, I would like to say I really appreciate how Steve treats people a great example.!
Maybe, but watching some dyno comparisons of different air filters, results aren't always as you might anticipate. Some of the tall filters even did a little worse that the best of the regular height ones. The way the airflow is shaped into the carb seems to be just as important as the filter area.
@@jesusisalive3227 In the dyno test I'm referring to, the filter lids actually did worse. Hard to say why - I suspect it could have something to do with turbulence & velocity of the airflow.
@@boydw1 You should watch the engine masters episode where they test a number of filters. Any filter that directed the air down had way less power loss.
@@jesusisalive3227 Agree...remember when those came out everyone had one not knowing they were going backwards. Went back to paper filters, makes the same power as the ones you oil up.
Super cool build , was disappointed a bit , some more camshaft and more carb , like a 1000cfm and we would see 800 bhp easy from a 545. But I get it they’re happy with what they wanted to do with it ! And that’s all that matters. Super cool that Steve decided to vid this !
Except with those changes , the motor would be a real disappointment to drive on the street. Look at some cam dyno comparison vids on the Richard Holdener channel. Once you get past a certain point any power you gain at high RPM is lost on the bottom. Think about it, big cam motors don't make enough power to over come engine friction at 600 RPM where as a stock motor can idle at 600 or lower.
Their 545 in that markV will run easy mid to low 11s on drag radials easy with a 3.25 or 3.5 gear and pull like a train even at 1/2 throttle, hoping they’ve got enough trans, ds, diff and axles between that 700lbft and that 4600lbs… For the 800hp build, you just add converter and a little gear to suit the cam, and I don’t think “disappointed” would ever be in your vocabulary given that this is still a 4.5” stroke and 545ci. The real kicker is that the Kaase heads have a great chamber and would probably take 11.5:1 on 93 with 270deg+ at .050. Peak hp might be in the low 6000’s but would need a lot more carb, a LOT..
@@bobroberts2371 why would a person spend 14k on a 545 with SCJ heads for a 600 RPM glass smooth idle when a stock 460 does that? I mean, cleaned up stock heads, 215-220 degree cam, and an S475 on a stock block will do 600/700 on 93 easy…. Back to your question. 800hp N/A will idle well enough with the right carb and tuning or fi, and it’ll pull from its “means business”900-1000 rpm idle till the converter stalls at 3500 well enough to rearrange your organs, even in a heavy car.
Steve thank you great build. The brothers really nailed that one . The smile on there faces was the best part of the video . The level of enjoyment you were able to provide to these 2 brothers Steve will be a high mark in there lives . Thank great video , different buy really enjoyed the grassroots element and tbe fact that you let them do there thing . Great job guys you brothers rock !!
THIS IS AWESOME. Nothing better than seeing the PRIDE on the Builder's face and of course, the non-stop SMILE ;) Now, while it's clear these 2 gentlemen are related, are they Twins ? Regardless, I am happy for the brother that did the build. You couldn't remove that smile on his face if you tried. Make sure and let us know where we can see the entire car once it's all together.
Awesome. Few things compare with seeing and hearing your first? engine build run for the first time and the icing on the cake is making the target Torq, Hp 👍
That dudes so proud and happy with his engine build well done bloke you did an awesome job and its good to see he cant get that big smile off his face.
As a grown-up kid, my daily drivers are a pair of 98 Mark VIII's one is NA and the other is boosted. That is a cool motor going into an old Mark. Cool! Glad it had a good dyno outing.
Steve this is a great video. It may not always be financially advantageous to give tech info out but seeing those smiles has to be emotionally rewarding. Much respect
Dude this thing is such a sleeper! Didn’t notice ally heads until steve pointed it out, These guys did a killer job the torque curve looks like it’ll boil tyres!

It's nice to see that you are willing to dyno N/A engines that have been built by the owner.
