    Good lord...the sheer amount of stupid in the comments here is astonishing, even for youtube. So many people not understanding that this is a quick cut together of many, MANY hours of work to correctly assemble an engine, and ending with the 'money shots' of the final dyno pulls. For the unsure - of course there was assembly lube, and yes all of the required steps were followed to ensure longevity - one doesn't build engines professionally unless willing to stand behind the work. Of course the engine was broken in before those final dyno runs were made - as well as many other dyno pulls to tune it correctly. COMMON SENSE*, people!!1!
    What I really liked was listening to the change in tone as they loaded up the engine against the dyno - you can clearly hear the power level increasing. Engine dynos are nice...

    Pretty interesting build. The power numbers aren't particularly surprising, this engine mimics the Ford NASCAR engine components and modifications prior to the introduction of the FP9, with the exception of the bore/stroke changes to make 460ci as compared to 358ci.
    At 358ci, we saw (I built engines for S&H Motorsports for NASCAR's truck series) 775 -780 horsepower under the 9 to 1 compression ratio rules.
    Kinda fun to see that the older ('90s) NASCAR engine technology lives on!

  • @SouthernCrossMotors
    @SouthernCrossMotors 6 лет назад +5

    That is amazing...love the video and what an engine! I have built a number of 351 Cleveland's back in the 80's that made maybe 330 hp lol!!
    What is really interesting is at 5250rpm it looks like about 620hp and 620 ft-lb.....with nearly 2500 rpm to go! What an engine and what a build. Jealous a little :)

  • @DougHanchard
    @DougHanchard 10 лет назад +31

    Nice build. I have to chuckle when commentators wonder about DOHC, or why not build a 2,000 Hp twin turbo compared to a 7 Litre pushrod small block. The "big" beauty of these engines when built right using the best parts is the benefit of monster torque and horsepower combined into a single package. Commentators seem to forget the basics. These engines are often going into cars that weigh 3,500+ lbs. I'd like to see a 2.0 Litre Twin Turbo try to keep up with 680 ft lbs of torque (multiplied through a good transmission) and attempt to keep up an identical size and weight car.
    Callies cranks and Dark Blocks are excellent foundations. For those that haven't used Callies, they are well known for using very high quality steel with a twist resistance and superb counterweight design. I have never seen one break. But they are expensive as hell. Engine builders love them for the ease in which to balance the rotation assembly too. You pay for what you get. DOHC hemi style heads were once available for Small Block Fords, designed by Gurney Racing engines in the 1960's. Used at Indy, they were not as efficient as the Ford Cosworth versions (which did not use a factory style SBF block) and were soon discontinued. All the components to make a DOHC head work eats horsepower.
    The real bench racing argument has always been about Chevrolet Small block intake port placement versus Ford's spread bore design - which one was better. It's been long argued that Chevrolet's design equalized the intake runner size and distance to the cylinder for more power than Ford's. With it came technical cooling and exhaust scavenging challenges. Today's camshaft designs and use of dyno's has pretty much equalized and solved both engines flaws. I bet Dandy could make equal power out of either one. Smokey Yunick was famous for stating, "an engine doesn't know what the name of it is, and doesn't care" - who built powerful Ford and Chevrolet engines for decades. Yunick built Ford's, Pontiac's, Chevrolet's, Hudson's, Buicks, Oldmobile's, small blocks, big blocks, DOHC's, Lean burn technology... you name it, he probably tried it. A genius decades ahead of his time. For a small lightweight small block V-8, making 800+ reliable horsepower is a lot harder than most think. This one is a beauty. +1

    • @blazetownsend8785
      @blazetownsend8785 5 лет назад +2

      It's actually common for small liter engines.... But this engine is well done, and very reliable. Many high HP/torque small liter engines will blow their head gaskets readily. I would rather have the reliability over pushing absolute boundaries. The push rods are, however, a limitation for these vehicles, and limit higher RPM operations due to float, as flex is seen at high torque and rpms. A dual overhead cam setup can help mitigate this, and allow for tighter tolerances, especially with a chain driven timing belt. The beauty here is in the simpicity, as rods are more reliable at normal operating rpms. They did great on this machine.

  • @RomeoRomeo5000
    @RomeoRomeo5000 9 лет назад

    I really enjoyed the video especially with the adjustments in between dyno runs that produced more HP. So, with that 4.250" stroke Callies crankshaft, that block by DART is a .030" over 4.125" bore. We just repaired a SCAT 460 Ford c/s with a 5.000" stroke. That 5.000" stroker in a .030" over 460 Ford gives it 605CID. Thanks again for the very professional and detailed video.

    hello I'm from Brazil, and here is not very common tuning in V8. I wonder what the function of the vacuum pump placed on it and what its function. Thank you and sorry for my bad english

    • @jacoblarsen2480
      @jacoblarsen2480 11 лет назад +18

      It creates crank case vacuum which reduces pumping losses. Normally, as the pistons pump up and down they push air. The crank is not very aerodynamic either. The vacuum pump removes the air/blow-by and reduces drag.

      It also helps with ring seal. Especially if they are low tension rings. Low tension rings help horsepower by having less friction. and letting the rotating assembly turn easier.

  • @stephenbrowne33
    @stephenbrowne33 11 лет назад +60

    It's sad when people talk crap about turbo lag and don't realize that they are complaining about the boost threshold. At least educate yourselves to complain accurately please. While I'm at it, what's wrong with power adders? Throw a twin turbo on this (after backing down the compression) or a supercharger and see WHP over 1000 not just off the crank. Power is power, if your a true car person you should love it all.

    • @stephenbrowne33
      @stephenbrowne33 11 лет назад +1

      That's a shortsighted observation. You assume you can't have an even torque curve or power band on a boosted car (again, let's educate ourselves on correct terms)? Your statement is too open ended and assumes boosted equals peaky and high wear.

    • @stephenbrowne33
      @stephenbrowne33 10 лет назад +1

      Yes lag is lag and threshold is threshold. One is the point when boost starts and the other is the time it takes to get to full boost (in Lehman's term). That being said, also who brought up 2.0 4 cylinder? Since when do we only boost small engines? You can build up a NA engine all you want but you will be limited and at some point will have to use a turbo, supercharger, or nitrous. That's how it's possible to take a 4 cylinder maxed at 250 hp to over 400 by boosting it.

    • @stephenbrowne33
      @stephenbrowne33 10 лет назад +4

      This is not a point of small displacement forced induction versus large displacement naturally aspirated. My point is that power adders like chargers make any engine faster. Look at all of the fastest accelerating production cars and top speed production cars. Save for the V8 Aero Atom, what do they all have I'm common? Turbo or superchargers. Sure turbo engines can suck, so can big V8's (both of which I like btw). It's a matter of performance potential. You can argue all you want but every speed shop and modification shop will tell you that any engine will have greater power potential from power adders (except electrical cars, let's be honest).

      Ok, so I am not the only one that noticed that.

    • @garrettratliff2041
      @garrettratliff2041 10 лет назад

And BG you are not alone. I was always taught to take a drill and prime the oil pump up so that oil is making it all the way up to the rocker arms.

      This is just my thoughts why they did not add oil in this motor :)

    • @badlilstang

    Cam insertion without lube or a cam stick, assembling rings without a ring tool, dropping pistons into cylinders without lube or rubber guides, letting the con-rod scrape along the cylinder bore, incorrect pull on the torque wrench, steel studs going into aluminum dry, electric screwgun used on them before hand-starting them, only one torque pass, shit that stud is going in cross-threaded, they'll have to pull the head and tap that hole.

    Lot of really nice parts in that thing, but that's a really sloppy, careless build. Crank dropped in dry? Drag the rod down the bore installing pistons? Looks (obviously can't feel it myself) like there's more rotational drag with three slugs in it than the whole rotating assembly should have, with obvious tight spots. There's moly on the main bolts, but not enough to do anything. At one point, when he's blasting the head studs in with mini impact, it looks like he's got the phone up to his ear. Then there's the valve lash -- which you can see by how hard he's got to yank on the feeler -- that has to be too tight. Finally, I know it's got a giant roller in it, but it seems to be flopping around at idle on the dyno something fierce; more like misfire than idle lope.
    Sure, it makes good power, but for how long until it starts to tear itself apart? Was it a race to see how quickly it could be built?

I researched and developed the engine over two years, unfortunately I trusted DANDY to design and put the top end together for me as I was working FIFO and didn't have time... Bad Move! no expense spared and Dandy chose to put CRANE BLUE valve springs in the top and then rev her to 8500... The chugging you can hear is 7 broken inner valve springs... not to mention pistons actually kissing the heads by about a thou at high revs... 7k later the old girl is behaving well and giving me some good numbers at the track, Spewing this cnt is getting all the glory when Pats Garage developed it... I'm sure Dandy just threw it together to get a "High Horsepower Hit" on you tube... Cant complain... bad choice and hey shes doing well... 630 at the treads with a 9.5 on the first night :)

    nice to watch the build... but: OHC was invented decades before. The benefits of OHC are well known. Rediculous to still build this "decades behind up to date" engines. Why Ford came up with DOHC-engines as a brand new invention in the late 1970 years, some 4 decades after first invention of DOHC from Alpha Romeo we don´t know. Americans most probabely need some more time to adapte to new standarts. ;-)

      Hey I love ohc motors, and if you do your homework on valve motion you'll see dohc doesn't have a huge advantage over a rocker arm sohc, the rocker arm allows faster valve acceleration and velocity meaning more lift for any given duration or less duration for any given lift
      But anyways, the pushrod v8 is actually a really compact package for its displacement.
      look up the illmore Mercedes Indy car by reverting to pushrods the rules allowed an extra 300cc not much but under boost its a ton.
      Or how about you check out a tf dragster about 10x the power per liter of a f1 or Moto gp
      Or how about a nhra pro stock. they take a pushrod valve terrain beyond 12000rpm And make 1450hp from 8l na
      btw this engine would rip whatever you have..... And if we go to hp per liter, it will still demolish what ever you own, and even if you owned a turbo 4 or what ever you fancy, on a road course the big na engine is a monster....

    • @LuxorVan

      My mom had a 1968 Ford Fairlane with a 428 Cobra Jet engine, wish they would have kept it, it is a Collectors dream and it was all original with the fluffy blue shag carpet from factory! They also had a 1968 Gold Plymouth GTX Convertible with 440, that was purchased new in California and drove to Indiana, the guy blew the motor and sold it to them for $400 in 1969! Had it been a Hemi there was only 36 produced that year!
      But for hers with the 440 there are places saying only 506 were Built that year! Both were mint condition, but they had kids to worry about and the vehicles never really mattered! When she was in high school you could buy 60's Impalla's used with 327's and 427's and True SS models for as low as $15! Wish those days were still here!
      The 427 Windsor as I was talking about was in the Saleen S7 (2000-2004) but it was bored and stroked 351 Windsor with 550 BHP at 6400 rpm! But that car was capable of 220 mph! In 2005 the Saleen S7 was upped with twin turbos and would top 248 mph and had the same engine with 750 BHP at 6300 rpm!
      In all reality I know ford only sold the 428 and 429 Cobra Jet big blocks and also had a Boss 429 Hemi, but Mickey Thompson did develop and manufacture a few modified 427 Hemi's but they would have been based upon ford big blocks that were available obviously the from the MEL "Lima Plant" or FE engine family!
      But while researching I found this from the FE family! The Ford single overhead cam (SOHC) 427 V8 engine, familiarly known as the "Cammer", was released in 1964 in an effort to maintain NASCAR dominance by seeking to counter the extremely powerful, enormously large block Chrysler 426 Hemi "elephant" engine.
      I obviously never mentioned "Factory Made 427 Windsor" (I Should have mentioned the Saleen S7), just was reading literature about it's power and the engine they had in it! But you should have guessed that, just as this video talks about, that it was a modified engine I was referring to!
      So thanks for reminding me to correct and clearly refer to where the information on the 427 Windsor was from!

    800+ horsepower out of a naturally aspirated engine with 93 octane. Impressive and I like Chevy.

    Sweetness. And thank you for killing the music when you got to the dyno room. Nothing worse than masking the sound of a purring engine.

    Heck of an engine there! Only thing I noticed though was on the dyno pulls, when the throttle got cracked open all the way it almost seemed like it was holding back for a few seconds, maybe a carb/timing tweak? Seemed like the motor couldn't overcome the dyno until it got some rev's up. Regardless though, a really nice build!

    Amazing power for pump 98 and that much compression

    Put a feeler gauge between the connecting rods to take up the thrust clearance before you torque down your caps. If you'll take down one you just built the way you are, you'll see some of the bearings with a tiny bend where the twist let you mash the insert. That small place bleeds off some oil pressure and can make the difference when you're pushing the RPM limits.

    Seems to be missing a gasket on the china wall under the intake? @5:43
