  • The RUclips 355 hits the dyno with a simple non inter-cooled turbo kit and makes big power! Stock block, cast crank, and factory rods are pushed pretty hard for some boosted dyno testing @NicksGarage
    *I do not recommend pushing stock components to this level of hp*
    A simple but effective budget blow thru turbo kit using a On3 7875 turbo and mostly parts I had laying around the shop we were able to get 700+hp/700+tq out of the 355 before we ran out of fuel injector!

      true. in the end when youre building high HP stuff(higher than this like four digits) it aint gonna matter if its and LS or small block
      at that point it becomes a matter of cubic inches and cubic dollars and how much money you spend to spin the RPM and boost levels it takes to make serious steam

    Pat the 44 mm wastegate is big enough the problem is the placement of it. It vents the drivers side of the engine but the way that manifold is design it's not venting all cylinders on the passenger side.
    You would need to move the wastegate closer to the turbo. Right on the elbow where the pipe comes to the turbo flange so the wastegate has priority over all cylinders and then it will work good.
    I moved into the turbo LS but would love to do this with our c20.

    • @cuttersperformance
      @cuttersperformance  2 года назад +2

      Yeah, I know it is not the most ideal spot, but I thought it would be ok with that turbo...turns out no lol. I will probably keep this out and add another 44mm I have as well in a better location

  • @sbcperformance413

    I actually prefer the old school x rods over the powder metal rods for a boosted application. From my experience, the old school rods tend to just bend and the powder metal rods tend to break if you over power them. I've been boosting mild small block chevy motors for several years with blow through carbs. I also like using the Snow Performance water/meth kits, they work very well.

    • @cuttersperformance

The Rod only bent into a slight S shape. No Breakage.

    I feel like the only thing the small block lacks is consumption of air. The Ls has the superior ignition system. Plus huge intake for more air to go through compared to a SBC. Air/fuel is all you need to make power. So the SBC just needs a little tweaking. I’ll say. But when done right! They’ll blow people away with the power it makes!

    LS Cylinder Heads are what make them so good. They also can take a lot of power on stock bottom ends. When they came out SBC heads sucked in comparison, unless you were spending a lot of cash. Now we have a ton of affordable SBC heads. These DNA heads did well, especially when you consider the cost. I looked at LS swapping. A Summit engine swap kit is 1400 bucks Cdn, without headers. Then a tune/rework or something like Terminator or an MSD box if you want to run Carb. Based on the cost of swapping an LS into my first gen F body it's better to spend on a better set of heads.

    • @cuttersperformance
      @cuttersperformance  2 года назад +3

      Yeah exactly its 50 years of technology difference between the two. Ls swaps as often not nearly as cheap as some may think and may not make sense for some if you already have money invested into sbc parts. I go through that alot at the shop with guys wanting to LS swap for $1500 lol

    • @BDauto86
      @BDauto86 2 года назад +1

      It all depends on what you want and how you go about it.
      I turbo LS swapped my Fbody for relatively cheap, but I also had a budget in mind waited and watched for deals. Of course doing all the work myself, I used a basic 05 truck 5.3, which has the "gen4" rods/pistons
      I didn't rebuild engine, just cleaned/inspected inside when I swapped pans, resealed the known leak points, cam in and used same turbo pat has in this video.
      It's a solid combo that can cruise or rip.

    I realize that this is a while back but, this SBC has a small turbo exhaust system(not diameter) but length. The first time I saw this was 89’ on a turbo Buick V6, comparing a regal exhaust system to a T/A exhaust. The T/A system was much shorter(different chassis clearance) the engineers calculated more energy was reaching the turbine and making much more power. They de-tuned the Buick V-6’s in the T/A’s cause it would have stomped the factory Corvettes.

    Great to here yer staying true to the small blocks, good to see your working with Nick too. I am thinking of doing a turbo set up on my next engine, it would be a 400, cheap ebay turbo set up, blow thru carb. Trying to figure out what to use for a good cheap turbo, i plan on only running like 5 psi of boost, on a low compression ratio 400, for torque and economy in a truck. Also trying to figure out what to get a cam ground too,, as far as specs. It would be a mechanical flat tappet cam in all likelihood.

    QUICK question . . . Can you please explain the Vortec head issue with the coolant passages on a pre-Vortec block? I've read about it but there must be something I'm not grasping. I'm more of a visual learner. Even if it's a "short" video or whatever YT calls them. Thanks. 👍

      Yeah, the GM head gaskets surprised me. I never used them with that kind of power before. The arp head bolts help alot.
      I can try to make a short video, but real quick, i will explain it.
      -A pre vortec sbc has a small passage from the water pump, through the block to a hole in the passenger side cylinder head
      -the passage allows a small amount of coolant to flow even when the thermostat is closed
      -Vortecs dont have this passage because the stock water pump and intake have a small hose that allows coolant to flow instead of the passage in the block.
      - Without this bypass, you can get major temp swings and overheating from air pockets stuck at the thermostat.
      A simple fix is to drill a few holes in the thermostat to allow a bit of coolant flow and prevent air pockets.

    A sbc can be made to run just a good with turbos if not better as a LS, the only downside is the cost to do it lol, you gotta put a few k into a sbc to make it an equal starting point as a junkyard ls ill give them that. But there's just something about the old tried and true Gen1s I can't get away from, more costly or not ill always have a few around! Not saying ill never have an Ls but if or when I do it'll be setting next some good looking sbcs 😂

  • @itseithergonnaworkoritaint7852
    @itseithergonnaworkoritaint7852 2 года назад +3

    With a turbo it's all about the harmonics. Turbo boosting loads the down stroke when the charge gets ignited as well as the up stroke from back pressure of the exhaust having to spin the turbo wheel. With both sides loaded it dampens harmful harmonics that can cause catastrophic damage, kind of like brake torqueing when you launch at the dragstrip vs doing a neutral slam. Turbo charging is probably the safest power adder to use to make big power with factory parts because of the cushioning effect of being loaded in both directions.
    That's why LS engines can handle making so much power with the wimpy fasteners they are put together with because of the better harmonics that is train drivered into them. The firing order really helps an LS calm down harmful harmonics as well as the larger diameter camshaft, probably the number one advantages over the sbc. The LS firing order sbc camshafts are becoming more available and do help cut down harmonics but not as much as an LS because the LS cam diameter.
    IMO the sbc still has its place and is what I also prefer vs an LS as long as it is going into a Chevy vehicle. And they can be built to make even more power than an LS can make using the aftermarket components available for them. They make cylinder heads for a sbc that flow over 400 intake cfm I'm not sure the LS aftermarket support has reached that level yet?
    So now if you plan on running 800 + HP in the vehicle its going in you might want to consider a mid plate or a front plate to mount that thing or you can run into some problems from block distortion in the drivers side motor mount area. I have seen it happen to a boosted LS and a boosted small block Buick where the number 2 cylinder lets go. The only thing we could figure what was causing it was all that torque yanking on the drivers side motor mount causing the #2 cylinder to distort making it fail. I would imagine the same thing can happen to a sbc with lots of boosted torque on tap too? Cool build, good job.

    • @cuttersperformance
      @cuttersperformance  2 года назад +3

      Thats a really good point on the engine mounts vs mid plate. The centralized force on the block causes the cylinder to distort. Makes sense very smart

    Dude when you said you were fixing to swap over to LS this was going to be a serious hate letter🤣 so I'm glad you were joking the zip tie was a great idea as the saying goes necessity the mother of all invention dude I want to ask a favor I started a Vortec 502 build about 10 years back not to go into too much detail but I didn't get to complete it because of an injury basically the bottom end it's all forged and throw a set of relatively decent heads on it and run a 871 just think it over and turbos are the big deal now but I'd like to see what it would do to just naturally aspirated & maybe a little boost we had great success with the 454 but really what do you have to lose man?? With a little machine work on the bottom and set of heads you decide whatever cam you want like I said just think it over it would make for one Killer video not to mention very inexpensive like you I build mostly small blocks👍 eventually I'll probably do it again just kick it around I'm sure you can find one in a jock yard looking forward to your next video👍

    I stumbled on this video and I like what you did with this basic turbo setup, especially the factory manifold on the drivers side, cheap but effective. Any inform on the other parts you used besides crank and block, which I have several of right now? I'm stuck on gen SBC, and now you have me thinking turbo again, dog gone you! I could limit the power at say 625-650 and have a ball for a long time.

    I keep getting asked how much powerccan a sbc handle
    by Bloodviking master engine builder
    Old school 350 sbc 4 bolt stock internals around 500 hp and 6500 rpm
    Old school 350 4340 internals and forged pistons 650 hp at 7500 rpm steel main caps arp bolts
    Block will fail much past that. I've seen 850 at short bursts then eventually boom.
    Ls small block chevt limit on stock parts about 1200 hp. They do often break at 1450. Even beefed up. Even with a girdle.
    Fully forged ls more reliable but block reaches its limits at 1450 or so.
    Bbc.stock internals 2 bolt on boost part block fill 650 hp. 6500 rpm
    Forged internals max rpm 7500, 1200 hp 4 bolt main arp studs.
    All engines fail if rpm is held for a long duration.

She does fine most of the time, but I have some mean grades near me that really tax the engine. She's tuned perfecto, but she needs some more grunt. I think the 5-7 psi the old kits provide might be enough for me.
