- YB Cosworth engines are legendary in the performance world from the Ford RS Sierra etc and touring car days, but in a Nissan S15 drag car, they're pretty much unheard of.
In this interview, Fred Karam of Team Karam Racing runs us through why the owner of this S15 drag car decided to move away from the Nissan SR20 powerplant and towards a 1000whp YB Cosworth build instead.
At the time of filming the car was running 8-second passes at around 1000whp and 47psi of boost from a 7675 Precision Turbo with the team gunning for consistent 7.7-second at the 1200HP power level in the future. Andre and Fred also discuss some of the head sealing techniques and YB Cosworth block options.

The good old YB, designed 35 years ago!
But R&D by the consumers/engine builders was not instant. It’s taken a while to get from the 5/600hp of the late 80’s Touring car engineers to 1200hp these days.
Original block comes from the early ‘70s
I swear he said Alice, then my brain caught up and realised it was LS. Great interview as always Andre
Yeah he's got that NZ or Australian accent
Hp academy really got lucky with this interviewer. He listens closely, asks all the right questions so the viewers understand what’s going on (even the noobs). Then his voice is always clear and consistent Give him a raise. He makes the video
He literally owns Hp academy
@@Realtime1501 I think he got you
@@matel9985 yeah, not sure if joke or not :D
I love that he even asks some uncomfortable questions that's be on all our minds as well.
@@exvils honestly had no clue 😂 I’m new here
As a massive Ford fan its great to see you still using these legendary engines still over there
Just sold my sapphire cosworth the yb is fantastic when built/setup properly 👌
That's awesome seeing a YB lump in an s15
YB's are just so iconic... I wish I could once have one in hand.... Thank you for sharing such a interview
History of formula one lasting 15 years
Cosworth... 💕
Look at all the room for activities in that engine bay.
Cosworth !!!
Hammer engine!
Great video Andre
You have come along way from the unit in Tyres Road
Love seeing guys using the smaller displacement stuff and making it work👍
I wish I had my old 3dr cosworth with 1200hp Awesome.
Love it yb fixed the s15
Very very cool to see a YB in there 😎😎 very cool interview too thoroughly enjoyed this one!!
Hey up mad Matt. You need to feature this on your IG.. got to qualify as Gangsta shit.
Work of art
It is using a fueltech. Very nice.
Thanks for taking us into the pits for real conversations with people who know their stuff.
This is an original pinto iron block as stated. I think that is a lot of reliability relative to the later model aluminium modern engines. the stud changes are pretty impressive as well. Very cool to see these 'retro' engines still pulling their weight with modern injection and turbos bolted on.
I'd like to build up a BDA engine one day, but it'll be tough to get by the girlfriend!
205 block is original pinto this 200 cosworth block
Argh those long wires to the ignition coils really hurts my eye =))
Awesome build!
holy shit so much nifty tech makes my head spin. Pity there was no pass or at least some engine sound in the clip. :)
Love to see a set up like that in a whale tail cossie 😎😎👌👀
hi, i saw a fueltech ecu, you didn't mention it, is it good ? and reliable ?
that would be an awesome engine in an eb xr6
I flippin love YBs. I know the SR20 is the fanboy engine of the universe, but YB is another level vs the normal DET versions.
VET is an amazing head, but YBs seem to take more of a long term beating for track and rally use than SR blocks.
2 of the top 10 fastest 4 cylinder drag passes of all time are Sr20 ,Yb's are on a level below yes
@@Realtime1501 because nobody uses YBs for drag engines normally. They’re legendary/successful rally and circuit race engines, unlike SR20s.
By your ‘logic’ the best 4cyl on the planet are GM ones, the Ecotec and the XE, as that’s the fastest two drag 4cyls.
And I doubt anyone would agree with that either...
As soon as I saw YB I knew you'd be in here Stav 👌
@@StavTech Just in case you didn't watch the video, they are drag racing this car not rally or circuit racing it. So your argument about YBs vs SRs for track and rally use is irrelevant.
@@albertt7784 well done Albert, great spot. Yet you miss my point wildly. People not using them is people not using them. That’s very different to people have tried to use them but they don’t last, aka SR in rally/racing
How much nitrous was he running , and any down the strip
It's weird seeing a Aussie go with this type of setup in an S15 -I've actually never really heard of anyone even using this motor! obviously works...
How much output can the YB produce with NA only tuning?
Around 330-350 @ 10k rpm
Do like to know how the cylinders hold up and not crack. Liners?
I don't know about this specific build beyond this chat, but here's a great chat with a YB guru - www.hpacademy.com/blog/1000hp-yb-cosworth-secrets-julian-godfrey-talks-700ftlbs-of-torque-tech-talk/
That motor is impressive, but that microphone is 1970’s HUGE
He's had a had a long and illustrious career starting with Woodstock 69' 😎
Looks a bit naff but awesome at cutting out the wind noise so well worth it. If you watch any of our Pikes Peak content (other than the one were there's a generator running in the background 😅) and compare it to anyone else with footage of them talking while up at Pikes Peak hill climb, you'll see what I mean 😉 - Taz.
Maybe we get to see some passes ?
Not in the rain bro
LOL, did not even notice it was raining ! Hypnotized by the mighty Cosworth !
All hale king millington.....
1000hp Cosworth High Dollar Build?
Mustang LS Junkyard EBay Turbo build: Hold my Beer 🍺
335i with bigger turbos..
anyway, dont they race in 4cyl category?
If it's a no budget junkyard LS build then it possibly only runs on 4 cylinders anyway 😅 - Taz
@@exvils 6cyl
Shame about the background talking. So annoying
Can someone shut that announcer guy up in the background? Babbling none stop.
@Dixie Hooligans it was actually a joke man.. it was just funny he was talking non-stop..
any other engine is better than a shitbox SR20DET
Nissan could've just use the RB20 instead in the Silvias?
