Hagerty. Nicely done video. Well presented. Very enjoyable to watch. Insofar as the 531 thumbs down...well, that needs to be addressed. So I have this for them; Snowflakes, Logical fallacy, and (my favorite), the Dunning-Kruger Effect. Compliments? Hardly. They should all go and look in a mirror. That "thing" lookin' back at them is what a dumbass looks like.
Not bad for a combustion engine. The Space shuttle for example ran 300,000bhp’s worth of fuel and oxidiser pumps alone across its 3 engines. True power :).
@@alexeidenier4072 there was a mock-up of a potential DOHC gen 2 Hemi for Nascar back in the late 60s in response to Fords 427 OHC project and sure enough it was even more massive than the already huge 426 Hemi.
@@alexeidenier4072The Ford SOHC 427 was effectively just that. Pretty much every OHC 2-valve engine in the 70s and 80s were basically hemis. Just run a cam down the middle of the head to lift the rockers and there you go. Very similar size. Pushrod engines CAN be compact, but once you deviate from the classic wedge, things get big real quick. There are OHC wedge motors though, and they're only a little taller.
A car traveling 200 mph covers 300 fps. There's three 300' increments plus a hundred feet in a top fuel run. I'd venture to say that a top fuel dragster could give a car a 180 mph head start and run it down for a photo finish or possible win. Absolute brutal acceleration!
I love to watch your video when you guys rebuild classic car engines but this one is beyond my expectation. This channel deserves more subscribers. Congratulations for the hard and precise work. Can't wait for longer version video of this project
Set your playback speed to below normal to counteract the effects. But your not building one because you probably dont have the equipment if it's in your back yard
Oh the parts are more than durable enough. They are much stronger and durable than what we are allowed to touch. It's pretty simple though, HP/TQ pretty much equals heat and stress. If that motor was only making say 300/300 the heat and stress is well within the limits of the parts. Although I haven't got to see one of these in person I imagine all the liquid systems in these blocks are probably designed to work under harsh acceleration something like 5 or 6 g's or something like that. But if you can modify those nuances to run within a normal working car it would act like a old motor making low power.
@@life-te7to those parts are top of the line. Those engines are built right. Low boost 3, to 5000hp all season long without a rebuilt. Only reason the crank up the HP is to show off for the fans making 320+mph passes.n shack the ground u stand on.your very wrong.
Comparing a cat engine to a drag engine is apples to oranges. Diesel and gasoline engines run compleatly differently. The high heat and compression of a diesel leand to longevity. These dragsters are using compression and fuels that no long term running engine will ever be able to handle. It's just a bomb waiting to go off. Hence the need for rebuilds when cranked up like that.
Jamison Massae It should have never been a trend, fidget spinners are for add, adhd, and focusing problems. People with adhd like myself have to much mental thinking and are always trying to focus but our mind goes crazy but we can multi task well so we have fidget spinners to help our brain focus on main task while getting all the distractions onto fidget spinner.
The engines have to be rebuild every time they are raced. They idle for about 1 min, and full throttle for about 10 secs and that’s enough to burn all spark plugs, piston rings, and near destroy the pistons and rods
Horsepower is how often the torque is repeated. Do you want an impact wrench that delivers 1,000 lbs of torque 1 time a minute or 10,000 times a minute?
@@ronindraco4194 eeeeh not necessarily. based on the equation its actually rpm that determines how fast you hit a wall which in essence comes from changing the gear ratio. changing a gear ratio will change the rpm and torque such that one will drop and the other will rise leaving horsepower exactly the same. as you can see that one (rpm or torque) can go lower or higher infinitely meaning that cars can go as fast as infinity mph. problem is because of air resistance the forces of drag and the force of the engine will eventually be net zero (equal and opposite) meaning the car will no longer accelerate. fortunately if we changed the gear ratio in a torque oriented manner we could basically lift anything we want it just would take a very very long time depending the gear ratio and the weight were lift. pushing a wall is a bit more complicated if we torqued up and went slow we could either push the wall like no problem or our tires would start slipping and that would mean that the static frictional force is not enough to break the molecular bondage thats connecting the wall to the ground. so if we increase our rpm (momentum) then we could reach max output force by the force of impact. however this relies on the time of the impact so it depends on what kind of wall we're talkin here. its structure and elasticity.
My mechanic works this fast, too. Now, if I could only get him to stop trying to schedule this type of service every quarter-mile I drive. I live 7 miles away from his shop--I haven't made it home in four and a half years.
What you should do after you drive your car? Average Daily Car = hmm probably went to gas station for refueling *_Top Fuel Dragsters = after driving ill need new pistons spark plugs clutch packs crankshafts piston rods and basically a new engine_*
Incredible!!! Super skilled and they must have memories like elephants to rebuild this without leaving out a washer or something. I've rebuilt a few small engines, a 1950 Army Jeep 4 cylinder, six cylinder engines, and a Caterpillar D343, but this is a learning experience. Excellent!!!
2:54 Why is the supercharger inlet deliberately blurred out? This part must be some sort of trade secret for each team. Does anyone have a more detailed explanation?
I might be young but I tend to know more about top fuel racing than some. After each trip down the track almost everything needs to be replaced. Spark plugs, gaskets, injectors. Things like that and more. If the team makes it to the finals during that race for the day they might take it apart and re assemble it about 30 times that day. The mechanics really know the engine. They repair it in about 30min to about an hour and a half
Well actually every race/drag, the car would undergo some rebuilding session where the car and the engine are completely torn down and rebuilded in about 30 mins then it gets assembled back
@@makerstories4008 no, the engines don't explode. They do get rebuilt after every pass, though. It takes a good team less than 10 minutes to fully rebuild the engine and trans. The trans pretty much welds itself together on every pass, though.
Actually, they're right - these engines are stripped down and rebuilt like this after _every_ run. The engine is _completely replaced_ after 10-12 runs if it hasn't already failed.
The throttle punch at 7:09 is one of the most impressive sounds I have ever heard (of course, that's coming from a guy whose never been to a track, so...).
put it on a bucket list, there is nothing like it, look up "top fuel virgins", you feel the power literally, people who go in without being warned don't get startled or shocked by it the first time, they panic out of fear because they've never felt something like that before
No not really, it can not run long enough for catastrophic failure to occur, the plugs are dead 2 seconds in. Pistons fried, clutch welded 3 seconds in, and about 4 seconds in the fuel it carried is consumed, all 18 gallons of it. The superchargers friction alone brings a "hypercar" engine to a complete standstill with it's 600HP parasitic draw. So it fails and falls on its face pretty quickly though. But I bet it takes your breath away in those 4 seconds... LITERALLY.
It’s due to each team having their own “secret” design of the blower inlet. Each team thinks they have the best design and don’t want the competition seeing what they have.
In races, the engines get refreshed after every pass. And a complete rebuild like this one after 10-12 passes. More info on our website: www.hagerty.com/articles-videos/articles/2018/09/12/redline-rebuild-top-fuel-dragster-engine

"Don’t let this distract you from the fact that Hector is going to be running three Honda civics with spoon engines, and on top of that, he just went into Harry’s and bought three t66 turbos with nos, and a motec exhaust system." Someone had to say it lol
Why does the Army get a dragster? Meanwhile here in the Marine corps we are using recycled oil for hwmmv, NVGs that never work and our COM is an awsome remembrance of the 80s.
@carbineZDH1 we're literally still flying jets from the 1970's lol and cant get new equipment for anything. Imagine the combat power the Corps could create with new equipment alone?
@@captaintraction4024 explain? cause if LS was superior it would have bested the records set by hemis in the golden era. And if LS is so great...why do top fuel dragsters use HEMI.
@@commando2074 you are completely right, that hemi in the dragster is the king hands down, but when you buy a crate motor, an ls is the way to go. There is a CARBURATED lsx that is more powerful than a hellcat. And there is no denying that the ls is a block that will go down in history as one of the greats.

This is a american power..! 🇺🇸®️✔️
Damn right.
Fucking america
I never knew they can build such monster V8 engines. That thang has maaaad power.
*How many seconds can it make that eleven thousand horsepower before it needs to be broken back down?...*
In races, the engines get refreshed after every pass. And a complete rebuild like this one after 10-12 passes. More info on our website: www.hagerty.com/articles-videos/articles/2018/09/12/redline-rebuild-top-fuel-dragster-engine
Daver G haha good one
Would they last longer if the engine could be broken in on normal gasoline for an hour or two?
@@greggv8 these engines cant run on normal gas, the compression is to high, runs to hard, stuff like that. Normal gas would probably F it up
N1GhT0FtHeW0Lf yes, normal gasoline would spontaniously combust rather than on a specific time due to the huge compression ratio you mentioned.
i love the precision go lads absolutely love it, skill to provide a thing of beauty!
Finally I can finish that mobility scooter for my grandma, thank you jesus
I run the car maintenance RUclips channel in Korea. I'm always learning such a great ideas on your channel. I hope we have a chance to be together. Thank you.
In
Korea do you have legal
Drags there
damn nice
i think ive seen you on a similar video lol
Your channel looks pretty good, if you considered putting english subtitles on there i and a lot of others would surely watch it, subscribed just in case 😁
Was stunned to see how deep the main caps went down...and those connecting rod beams...gadzooks.
Hey I need my golf cart engine back!!
Yeah.... Talk about death in seconds
Lol I like this comment ... dope
Thats not even a golf cart engine its clearly a lawnmower engine stop lying
Yall are both seriously wrong it's clearly an R.C. toy engine. C'mon guys be truthful
@@aubreywhaley7729 you are clearly lying its my musquito lamp
I’m gonna swap one of these into my mini bike
Amazing power from that beast! 1175 hp per cylinder! Awesome job guys!
1375
If everything goes good and nothing breaks these top fuel engines costs 1k per second to run
Spoon: 11k RPM
them: 11k HP
see where im going?
"Don’t let this distract you from the fact that Hector is going to be running three Honda civics with spoon engines, and on top of that, he just went into Harry’s and bought three t66 turbos with nos, and a motec exhaust system." Someone had to say it lol
I love my speeders....one of the most underrated tools out there.
Why does the Army get a dragster? Meanwhile here in the Marine corps we are using recycled oil for hwmmv, NVGs that never work and our COM is an awsome remembrance of the 80s.
@carbineZDH1 we're literally still flying jets from the 1970's lol and cant get new equipment for anything. Imagine the combat power the Corps could create with new equipment alone?
@@Layman169 I know right!
First time here, it was very informative, never seen a supercharger from the inside. Is this type called the Roots?
Greetings from Hungary!
@Michael Fritsche Blower with ~ 50 kg weight. Not a child's toy... :)
The parts attrition and money spent at this level of racing is nothing more than mind blowing!! Nitro methane is a crazy fuel!
What's up at 2:54? Something top secret in that super charger lol?
Yeapt
3:52 music?
You find da music?
What fantastic peice of engineering!!!
Pro tip! Settings (top right of screen)
Playback speed set to 0.5
Powering the fastest cars on Earth for over 50 years, the MOPAR HEMI engine.
Until the lsx motors came along...
@@captaintraction4024 explain? cause if LS was superior it would have bested the records set by hemis in the golden era. And if LS is so great...why do top fuel dragsters use HEMI.
do answer me..please
@@commando2074 you are completely right, that hemi in the dragster is the king hands down, but when you buy a crate motor, an ls is the way to go. There is a CARBURATED lsx that is more powerful than a hellcat. And there is no denying that the ls is a block that will go down in history as one of the greats.
I’ve always wondered if they would make more power if they went DOHC with turbos?
You're right in your description, I don't have an hour, but I can find an hour or several to watch this in real time.
The map to Jimmy Hoffa must be on top of the supercharger.
Leroy's next engine?? 😂😂
carloemiliozuniga cleetus dreams of the day lol
hahaha I was waiting to see this comment
that would be insane
He does have a new project coming... I have a feeling RUclips recommended this video because of the sub to Garrett’s channel. Do it for Dale!!!!
He want twin turbskies tho
An engine is masterpiece and Hagerty is the Michelangelo!
why is the supercharger inlet blurred ? @2:56 ?
because it looks like a penis.
Umm idk blurred from other teams
I think it is so that the geometry of the intake can't be copied by other teams.
Name of songs ?
These guys could piece together a 1000 pieces puzzle and I'd still watch😁👍
Wait why does the army have a dragster? To entice more people to join?
Well duh the US military constantly needs a steady supply of poor young men to keep the machine going.
Nailed it!
Sérgio Alves bro just stfu
truth hurts???
Because taxpayers are footing the bill
And that, boys and girls, is why these things cost $100,000 per pass.
I have NEVER seen a fuel car re-use pistons, rods or valves though.. 🤔
Stop spreading lies
These guys can build anything
Crazy how an engine this size, not even half the size of one of the engines on a tugboat I work on make more power 😳
What's the name of the songs?
nobody to answer ?
Alex Clare - Too Close is first song but remixed version and no vocals
Awsom crew - seems like they have done it before , a hole lot of times , man that engine looks strong
I'm just wondering...What if you put this engine inside an Abrams tank ! That's gonna be the biggest supersport vehicle ever,, a real fun
Holly 11000hp on an Abrams !!! Well this is the most crazy pleasure I’ve ever seen 😂
@@godzilla1569 yeah man a real pleasure ❤️
But,it will burn down after 5 sec,it will be overloaded
