Some great footage on there!!!
Small clip of a 68 Camaro drag car that pulls some big wheelstands. Later in the video you see it with a MASSIVE!! blower on it.
P.S. - Be patient for the blower part.

LOL I think it's a roots blower from an EMD locomotive 567 prime mover. The funny thing is that if I'm right, that blower was made by GM. LOL
So it's where it belongs 😂
EMD was indeed owned by GM at the time
It was I remember hearing about it
"EXPLAIN...THE GIANT...BLOWER."
And then my mouth freaking flies open at 2:25...this guy is just too cool!! XD
Found out about this on TikTok, insane😂
Same

Me too

Blower is off an EMD 645 diesel engine, found in SD-40-2 diesel locomotives
Sd40-2s aren't blown
@@pootispiker2866 what locomotive is it from?
@@jack_orourke_sb Other comments suggest it's not from a locomotive but from an air compressor instead, which looks untrue. But given it's in the US there's an almost endless list of locomotives it could have come from
jdoggybizzle told you where the blower came from umpteen pages ago. It's from an EMD 567 or 645 locomotive engine. It's a scavenging blower only and does not boost cylinder pressure. All it does is blow the spent gases out of the cylinder and provide a fresh air charge for the next cycle. It is a 2 stroke diesel with ported cylinder liners and is a terrific engine and very reliable
if that motor could sustain the boost from that blower, imagine the torque that car will produce, wtf i really hope they get it going...some how
it’s 12 years later. possibly.
@@asleepyyoutuber doubt it :( can’t find a pass on the internet
Yea tik tok or RUclips this is the only clip
That giant blower is the coolset thing I've ever seen, looks like a caricature. I would love to have heard it run, for the second or two that it did. Thanks for this one!
Woo man, that's a blower..killed 2 head gaskets too lol damn
What a down to earth kind of fellow
Thanks to that good roll cage you saved your self about 10 G's
@Inklebonker1 Yup, they used it to solve the problem of engines running at a limited altitude due to the thinning of air but since the supercharger compresses air it greatly increased their ranges.
Amazing video That blower Is unbelievable. I would love to see it work. Thanks for posting.
Close, but when it comes to a blown head gasket it is the pressure that counts. Your comparison of a straw and a coffee can are spot on when considering what it takes to sustain combustion at a given boost level and at the same pressure there is a drastic difference in the volume of air they are transferring. However, when it comes to head gaskets, the surface area exposed to the cylinder bore is constant and volume has no effect, just pressure.
Blowers have been used for 70 Plus years on many different modes of transportation. The blowers that most people are familiar with such as the 6-71 and 8-71 all the way up to the 12-71 were originally on Detroit Diesel motors. The 6-71 was used on the 6V71 Detroit 2 stroke diesel engine and the 8-71 was used on the 8V71 Detroit diesel and so on. My father used to have an old Peterbilt with a supercharged 8V92 Detroit diesel. You can hear an old 2 stroke Detroit for miles. Very distinct sound
nothing better than the sound of a screamin jimmy
@zachlutes I know you are right about the diesels, I am a diesel mechanic and have seen several of the old blowers you are talking about. Trust me, I know from experience that mine shaft blowers HAVE been used on hot rods, I have one myself.
Aerzen Positive Displacement Blowers (of the "Roots Blower" type design) have been manufactured since 1868 and today are highly developed standard production machines designed and adapted for a broad range of applications.
had this urban hill billies vhs got dust in though smh by far my favorite drag racing tape
"That huge blower to this car is what Dolly Parton is to music!" Awesome!
@68SSCAM they started it, but when they tried to rev it, lolz, they blew a headgasket!
Both head gaskets
Any updates on it? They ever take it down the road
hahahha this is MAD! I LOVE IT! makes me wonder if they even have a wheelie bar for this kind of power lol!
Probably around 5-10 pounds, but its not the psi that matters... it's the cfm when it comes to boosting a motor. Think 10psi through a straw and 10psi through a coffe can......
@68SSCAM That big block will get it turning, then the charger provides boost to the motor very quickly turning up the RPM's. Of course it will work, just the head bolts and everything else will stretch with that kind of boost put into it and cause catastrophic failure. If it was designed for a train, the diesel engine probably had at least 3/4" head bolts trying to hold it all together.
WICKED! these cars are insane.. Cant beat a v8.
@Inklebonker1 WW2 didn't have fighter jets just prop planes like the P-51
Thanks for info! I know my example was basic, but I was trying to throw it in layman's terms for everyone.
i have the dvd of this and the crazy blower. The dvd is called CRASH FEST and the guy did say the blower might have come from a freight train. Pretty crazy.
You can tell this dude is cool.
thats one impressive blower
loooooooow, que força bruta é essa!!!!!
he said outlaw 10.5 so its running 2000 hp if i remember correct
If it was off a freight train, that's a diesel, and would be more than that. Hell, my truck, stock, runs around 30lbs of boost. But you're 100% about it being more volume, not more pressure. HOWEVER, when it hits the restriction of the intake manifold, that air has nowhere to go as easily, and you'll get MUCH higher pressures. Think about putting your finger over a running garden hose.
Me, an Iowan: Oh, come on there, bud. Can't just blow the head gaskets. Open that puppy right up and VAPORIZE them like a man.
You got no hairs on your cobs or What?
if you don't believe me go on Google, the 67's front end doesn't match the Camaro in this video but the 68's does so its clearly a 68
that blower is a car on its own...
damn.. that thing is off a freight train or somethin haha
Man HUGE blower!
@mannyalcorta nice, looked familiar, my dad used to have a 63 nova. which looks just like that.
@68SSCAM not quite. sure, it needs to be turned first, but have you ever had one of those things? you can turn them by hand easily. now, one that big is a different story, but the engine could still do it. theyre only hard to turn at higher speeds, where its already helping the engine out by giving it more air
That's my dads old camaro. He sold it to Dan Navarro. It's a shame Mikey tried to take credit for the car. He did not own the car at the time.
@soulfire22 From Wikipedia:
"The Roots design was commonly used on two-stroke diesel engines"
referring to Roots blowers.
hahahahhaha right on bud.... if you ever get that "freight train" blower going ...PUT IT ON RUclips!!
Christ!!!! thats like an instant 2000hp at the RW in idle!!!
@Inklebonker1 Yes it was on planes. Acutally a rolls royce merlin motor. Used to increase speed and altitude.
@Inklebonker1 those old planes used either a turbocharger or a super - turbocharger set up...i dont know if they came first or trains
at 1:12 when the car is at the starting line. You can see that the bars are already tweaked. You would think that someone would have noticed before then. I'm not blaming anyone, it's not like i haven't overlooked things in the past.
@Inklebonker1 jets dont use superchargers. and the only WWII fighter jet i know about was the germans ME-262. No one else was using fighter jets at that time. There were some supercharged aircraft engines however. The P-51 had a blower on it. Im sure there were some more.
@dexter2433 planes used superchargers because they were more affective than turbos at higher altitude (p51 mustang, spitfire, p38 lightning)
Famous blower segment after 2:22
thats awesome when he said it blew both head gaskets lol. what the hell kind of boost would that be upwards of 100? 200?
i know exactly where that race track is at because me and my husband go to that race track on an occasion when we can it is located between Fordland and Rogersville MO and it is a fun track to go to
the wheelie was at Ozark International Raceway in Rogersville, MO.. not sure where he is from though
Anyone else have no idea how to fix cars/build em but love to watch them?
This guy seems very nice. Thumb up if u agree!
came off a train i thought jet engines were ridiculous, but thats crazy that they even make those
coisa linda este camaro!!
lol, i want to see a vid of him describing the first fire with that big blower lol
@acekazel still shocked that it was a rolls royce merlin engine that was the first. but i do remember that turbo charging was horrid for fighter planes.
@GeneralTJWillys Okay i was tired then but what i meant to say referred to the fact that the aircraft in ww2 were classified in mainly 2 categories the radial engine aircraft (lots of power less aerodynamically advanced, confined to lower altitude) and the v engine aircraft (adequate power great aerodynamics, and could fly at higher altitudes) they could fly at higher altitudes because they use superchargers. Superchargers and other types of forced induction are desighned _CONT_
tht was sick
You are a genious! Did you come up with that on your own? What makes you think that honestly?
this one made me check my whieliebars :)
holy shit ive seen that photo so many times and always thought it was fake i look at it now and im just like OMG!
The blower came off a EDM 567 Prime mover engine and those engines by the looks of it had not 1 but 2 of those blowers
well i just searched on google and looked at the EMD567 engine. its slightly smaller but it is indeed a train supercharger
Car guru sent me here
Sick CAMARo...
1:21 at least u only gotta do body work on 1 side now haha
Offthbadan You are exactly correct. '67's are round
When you figure in the sheer weight of the screws inside that (what I think) ventilation blower as well the power to turn them with enough force that would not bog the engine (I see no gear reduction of any kind other then belt cog) and produce pressure you start to fall into bull shit!
Not to mention it looked like a injection hat sitting on top, the fuel would have to fall around 2 plus feet & still be in a mist to be combustive!
It's BS to people that know blowers, & I do!
OMG that's insane
@bruce51501 He said they got it running with the huge blower....but as soon as they blipped the throttle...it blew out all the gaskets....and they never tried again.
good interviewer
@justadude83 would be "rotoscoping" mainly in programs like sony vegas and after effects :)
'67 this car hasn't any sidemarker lamp on the fenders or quarter panels and it has vent windows. 68 gille though.
@ramairgto72 Maybe not. It would have to have some enormous injectors but with the amount of fuel it would have to pump without running lean, I don't think a conventional ignition system to fire it. Plus everyone is talking about engine power to turn it? Try finding a starter that might tun it. Even a high torque would squirm at the thought of turning that sucker over.
What happened to this car just this one video
This is insane 😂
@zietda2 i agree , to be a good rally driver , we need many guts , skills , and also intelligences ..but we dont have to hate the drag racer because they're good at their races ..i'm one of loeb's fans ..
He also went to an old air force scrap yard he said, and found a twin F16 engine. and looked at his buddy earl and said this has to be stuck on my nova. lol
that wagon in the beginning, any clue what year/ type?
if you have blowers off a freight train you also need wheelie bars from nasa !
hondas just dont understand camaro's and t/a's, they will never have this problem for as they are front wheel drive
ruclips.net/video/poBJCdFeJCo/видео.html
2020🤘🏼 what happened to this car tho saw it years and years ago and nothing since
Idk what happened with that blower at least, but from what I can tell from another commenter who said it came off an EMD 645 diesel engine, that giant diesel (an EMD 16-645-E6) used two of those blowers to supply 16 cylinders each of 645 cubic inches displacement with the necessary air. Other models used a hybrid turbo-supercharger that was gear driven via centrifugal clutch at low RPM and went full exhaust gas driven at higher rpm (like above 500 rpm or something). These beasts made upwards of 4000 horsepower at their 950 rpm redline, that's like 23 to 24 thousand foot-pounds of torque, hella monstrous those were.
POWER!!!!
How much boost with a locomotive supercharger? Well, let's just put it this way: Take a GP-9 loco. (has a roots blower similar to the one on the car.) The blower from this loco is designed for its 12 - 16 cylinder (typically) motor with a 10" stroke, 8.5" bore, and 6 valves per cylinder. Remember, this is displacing 567 cubic inches PER CYLINDER on a V12-V16. Max RPM on the loco is around 800RPM: a car's idle. So... take a blower that is maxed out at a car's idle, blip the throttle, and boom.
i saw the picture of this on psca projects
that blower is bigger than most honda's!!
@MegaCamshaft my point being that it actually worked....kinda
Wow!
That's crazy.
Since noone else did, the blower is at 2:30
that was cool
Is this THE Farmtruck?
it didn't break the bar, there's a mount that the wheelie bar is bolted too that was broken or cracked before the race. Should have checked the car before he drove onto the starting line
@mazdaman222 supercharging was more effective for fighters at high altitude
LMAO he looks and sounds like DALE from King of the Hill hahahahaha
15 years later……it still hasn’t made a pass
@Inklebonker1 Contradiction in terms there. "Inline 16"....for one....eludes to a PISTON engine, not a "fighter JET".....and two.....the WWII fighters used mainly either V-12 Allison or Merlin piston engines or some type of radial piston engine. Just clearing the air. ;)
@My1968Impala lmfaoooo I agree with you man!!
Sick....
