Hey Daniel, Tim here, LOVE this kinda stuff, its a bit mundane, but is part of EVERY tear down chk, an engine dude shud do, made me proud, as i'm wearin my Powell T-shirt today.........validated my passion!!!....PEACE to you sir!!
HI DAN. JUST ASKING. ON ROLLER LIFTERS, VS FLAT TAPPET? WHEN DISASSEMBLING AND DOING A {FRESH-UP} YOU DON'T HAVE TO PUT THEM BACK ON THE SAME LOBE DURING ASSEMBLY?
So the 604 designation does not refer to the cubic inch of the engine if I understand correctly. These are 350s that make around 400 hp and are intended for circle track racing and the output is intentionally limited for competitive racing? Some of them come sealed from the factory so there’s no monkey business?
Very satisfying seeing stuff broken down & I can't wait to see it put back together..... I heard you mention like the "deck" can't be done b/c it's already at a minimum as per race specs? Do the Race Officials break down & measure everything?? If yes, WoW ! peace
I heard that too. There probably is a rule and I wonder if they actually measure, I really doubt anyone fails tech because the deck is 0.006 short. I think it's to stop guys from running low deck bowtie blocks with 8.2 or 8.9" deck.
I'm not a big race enthusiast but I have seen a "template" for the car shape & heard about "restricter plates" for air intake but I didn't know the whole thing could be dropped, broke down, and "mic'd" to make sure.... WoW. ty Sir
@@waylinbuerger2753 I got to see what I'm going to keep over 50 sets some are for align hone rod hone and cylinder honing maybe more sets but all are new
@@ericwright5419 I have a Sunnen hone for honing rod bushings and connecting rods. I will be needing some new stones in the future if you have some to get rid of.
@@waylinbuerger2753 what's the best way I can send picture of them I'm not sure what mandrels some are for some are from the early 00s maybe for a older manchine
Are those GM oil pumps holding up? I'm assuming they are made by melling. Years ago when they cheapened up the gears they were having problems. Or are they running the better sharks tooth pumps?
If i am not mistaken those are the Fasburn heads.. Any way you can flow test them, to compare to others results? More flow tests the better AVG flow #'s we can get. They are what i run on my ZZ430 Clone in my 91 Formula. Would love to see those heads and a comp XFI-292 cam would put out.
Drivers that take their performance seriously will regularly do this. Race Engines need to be freshened up and rebuilt after a hard season to perform at their peak for the next one. Any ICE racing series sees engine rebuilds at some point, as that is the powerplant of your vehicle.
I was just searching the comments for the answer to: how do you make a 604 cid small block??? Now I see it's a class racing engine and '604' isn't the displacement. Phew....that's better!
@@timothybayliss6680 Seems like I remember seeing a 605 RB Mopar built on an Indy Maxx block with a very slightly bigger bore center (4.84 vs. 4.80). I'm guessing that allows for a Chevy crank and more piston options in addition to a fuzz more displacement...? I dunno. I've never built anything like that.
I know I'm not the smartest cookie ever, but I only see a late model small block ..... How in the world did it turn into over 600 cubic inches. I have the perfect core for a start of this
@@powellmachineinc3179 oh, ok. I was wondering how in the world. So is that particular motor just a 350 still ? Also where are you located? I would love access to a full service machine shop like you provide. I have a 6.0 build that needs the rotating assembly balanced, as well as align honed for cam and crank main journals also ! As always, great content thanks for sharing
@@leonardfoster6252400 bhp/tq It's special because it's for circle track racing. So people don't spend gads of money to make HP. It's kinda like a budget motor.
I remember when you put that together last year. Looks nice
Definitely

Ty!! Yep, just part of every build
Thanks for sharing, digging the videos !
Thanks for watching!
As fast as you feller tore that engine down you could take ten minute coffee break in three minutes😁😂😁
Cool video! I bet that thing rumbles like thunder.
The little engines only make about 415hp at the flywheel, but there super dependable
Thank you for your knowledge and video's USA 🇺🇸
Our pleasure!
Do you offer a LQ9 regrind with a little more duration and lift, that will work with a stock tune? Just looking to gain a little over stock. Thanks
Yes
I see his comment/ reply disappeared?
Looks like it needs some rings on a few of the cylinders. Thanks for sharing cool engine.
Thanks for watching!
Nice job andrew
Mm looks like the pistons are kissing the head. Lots of clean spots on the piston edges and on the heads
Not even close
Do those older Chevy roller lifters stand up better than the the new stuff?
We used to rebuild them at the machine shops I worked at and use them for stock reman's. Always worked fine
HI DAN. JUST ASKING. ON ROLLER LIFTERS, VS FLAT TAPPET? WHEN DISASSEMBLING AND DOING A {FRESH-UP} YOU DON'T HAVE TO PUT THEM BACK ON THE SAME LOBE DURING ASSEMBLY?
Rollers don't care

Correct
Do you have to certify and seal the crate engines so that no other person can mess with them? Great video, many thanks.
Not in this series we don't.
What in the world is a 604 sbc? Can't be cubic inches. HP?
Circle track spec engine
Thanks Daniel, Love SBCs!
My pleasure!
Great. Very informative.

Great channel!
Glad you enjoy it!
Hey, do you have any 604 crate motor cams laying around? Interested in buying one used or new take out. Let me know thanks.
We have new
Enjoying the videos. 😊
Glad you like them!
You may have said but what type of race season for this Engine.
I emailed you about regrinding a sbc cam that is the cam i have i want to have reground im going to get you a core coming! 🤘🏼🇺🇸
Sounds good
Really enjoy watching and learning. Thank you! Just curious why a race engine is not using quench pistons?
Every part in this engine has to meet a set of predetermined rules for this class
I have alot of sunnen mandrel honing stones all new in box don't think I'm ever going to get to use them
How much for them? I'm looking for some stones for my Sunnen hone.
@@waylinbuerger2753 I got to see what I'm going to keep over 50 sets some are for align hone rod hone and cylinder honing maybe more sets but all are new

Do you have pull up side s or drop down sides

Std m55hv pump, no issues
Why don't they put the stuff go back in the same spot
Not necessary
Looks like a SBC. What is a "604 crate"?
Gm round track "crate engine "
604 is the last 3 digits of the part number
Ahh, I understood crate engine and I can see what it is, but I had no idea about the numbers. Thanks everyone!
Thank you sire!
Welcome!
How much power do you think she is making?
430

Would love to see those heads and a comp XFI-292 cam would put out.
Casually dropping has 4k cams to grind....epic
True story
need to put a drip pan under it , looks like a ecological disaster going on
We got Monsanto spraying millions of gallons of death over thousands of acres and you folks are worried about a 10th of a quart of oil......smh
Who does all that ?That's alot of money for that

You're new around here I see...
Your working outside
We are adding on to the shop
Here in MN those are sealed. Are you a certified rebuilder?
Many classes now don't require seals, it's just gotta pass tech
Minimum Deck height rule?
From the racing sanction rule book?
Yes

I saw the title and thought it was some kind of RB wedge motor. 604 is kind of huge for a Mopar but looks possible
604 is the last three digits of the part number for the crate motor GM sells.
@@timothybayliss6680 Seems like I remember seeing a 605 RB Mopar built on an Indy Maxx block with a very slightly bigger bore center (4.84 vs. 4.80).

What kind of racing does he do with that big engine?
It's a 350 engine. Nothing big. Chevy builds them for circle track racing and they come sealed. The 604 is a designated #
I know this is an ignorant question hopefully you’ll forgive me but why do they call a 350 a 604 engine also?
604 is the last three digits of the part number for the crate engine.
@@craigbowers4047 thank you for clarifying that for me
I know I'm not the smartest cookie ever, but I only see a late model small block ..... How in the world did it turn into over 600 cubic inches. I have the perfect core for a start of this
604 has nothing to do with cubic inches "ct604" is the gm designation

How do you change the speks on cams?
Very carefully 😊
Did that big motor make any hp or tq?
It's 350 cubic inches, the 604 is the last three digits of the part number from GM. It's sold as a crate engine for racing.
@@jeffreydurham5342 Nothing special I see!
@@leonardfoster6252400 bhp/tq
It's special because it's for circle track racing. So people don't spend gads of money to make HP. It's kinda like a budget motor.
That is definitely not a lmca sealed engine lol we fix them and the 602s on a regular basis
It's "crusa" legal....to the letter
Doesn't appear to be sealed... Unsealed motors will get ya disqualified real quick in Tn 😂
There are many classes that have dropped the "seals " and just use the std crusa engine rules
Andrew, compared to your Boss, you like like a Hippy.. think haircut.. high and tight!~😂😂😃😃
