    You should do a video where you actually degree the cams. Especially like you said, after you rotate they're always slightly off. Should be able to pick up some free horsepower by dialing in the cam timing. I know that would require a much higher spec build with adjustable cam gears and higher lift more duration camshafts.

    Would you say when done correctly the stock 257 could hold up to the originally
    planned 400whp without much trouble , or is it still pretty risky ?

    • @Smeedia
      @Smeedia  6 месяцев назад +1

      It’s definitely a lot safer, the real factor of how long they will last is how the car is driven and taken care of. I’ve owned multiple stock block cars at 450whp without any issue on em 💪

    Personally I think high HP stock block builds are the way to go with the EJ. The built motors dont last that long anyway imo and you can pick up stock sti short blocks oem new for like $5k.

      It’s def a gamble, but if you wanna have some fun with the car . Why not use the engine you’ve already got in it and enjoy it for a bit. Used stock blocks don’t sell for much so might as well get some fun out of em 😅

      I have hundreds of stock motor customers at this point at 500+whp. It’s obviously hard to keep track of all of them and mileage but I have several examples going on 1-2 years and 50k+ miles without issue.
      One example I will point out is a 21 STI I tuned at 5k miles with a original engine and 6466 combo, made 696whp @ 32PSI and is still living to this day 2 years later and is now at 60k miles on the engine.

The instructions he sent are as follows… “When you reach a safe place, do one full throttle pull starting from 2000 rpms in 3rd gear and stop at 6800 rpms and make the shift into 4th but do not keep pulling. “ so what I’ve been doing was just going into 3rd and pressing the pedal to the floor till the engine red lines then I shift.
