    Turbo "S71" Olds Engine Build Video BTR Performance Part 1 V8TV
    www.v8speedshop.com/contact This is the first in a multi-part series covering the custom stroker engine build performed by master engine builder Bill Trovato at BTR Performance for our turbocharged 1971 Olds project called the "S71". Although this video series features and Olds engine, the valuable, race-proven techniques shown by Trovato apply to any performance engine build.

    Hot Rod did an olds diesel to natural build back in the 90s...It made a ton of power!

    I've never had any issues with Clevite bearings, my built bored LSVTEC (1.85L DOHC VTEC Honda engine) has them in the rods and mains and it made 709 wheel horsepower. However, I have always personally used ACL Race bearings in my import blocks. I rebuilt a stock B18B1 (1.8L DOHC non-VTEC Honda engine) and with Brian Crower Stage 2 Turbo Cams, dual valve springs with titanium retainers, ARP head studs, ARP main studs, and a standard $90 50 trim floating bearing eBay turbo it made 412 whp at 18 psi...on stock pistons and cast rods, but freshly rebuilt with NPR rings and ACL Race bearings. I am nowhere near a professional engine builder because I lack the tools, the experience, and the knowledge that these guys have, but I was proud of that little engine...and it lived and was always reliable until I tore it down to put forged internals in it.

    Yeah, the Ford Powerstroke diesels run a .921" roller lifter and share part #s with the Olds. Ours were in good shape.

    My freshman year I had shop and we built a 1978 dodge v8. I got a lot of experience that year because I didn't even know what a ratchet wrench was lol.

  • @V8TV
    @V8TV  11 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The Olds LF-9 Diesel was made between 1977 all the way up through 1985. Ours came out of a running 1981 98 Regency, which was actually a very nice car to drive home to the shop... Before we blew it apart for it's engine! That car also gave up a 2004r transmission and a factory hydro boost brake system for other projects.

    @psychoclown420 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    That is really cool, imnotgonnalie. i never thought of using a diesel block. Either way, i'm sure you get the same results with a stock big-block.

  • @krabenaldt7605
    @krabenaldt7605 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Don't know how easy it would be to fine one these old diesels. That that many made.

  • @V8TV

    @davidsnova The Olds Diesel hit the streets in late '78.

  • @kevin122759
    @kevin122759 10 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I had a 1980 Olds Cutlass Supreme with the diesel engine. I drove it for years and took it on trips across country. I never had any problems with the car. Got 30 mpg but was not very powerful. People did not know how to service these engines back then. Wrong oil or fuel. That is why they had problems.

    • @jlo13800
      @jlo13800 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      I premix ed me olds 403 at 40:1 and ran nothing but tcw3. American car motors run no roller bearings unlike a rotax skidoo, I hate the automove 4 stroke, it had no oil injection
      , but I ran nothing but tcw3 filled up and ran some into the intake. These American blocks love 2 stroke oil as I r b the hell out of them. I love total loss

    • @jlo13800
      @jlo13800 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      How does a clevelight hold up to hold up to 50:1. I run nothing but 2 stroke oil. I love roller bearings though

    • @jlo13800
      @jlo13800 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      How about an Olds DRCE aluminum billet race block? That would make for a nice 2 stroke conversion like this guy did with 454 tall deck block:www.chevelles.com/forums/11-bench-racing/528170-2-stroke-454-a.html

    Great Vid! I can hardly wait to see the whole process.... I see you have the series available on DVD, is it by chance available for download on iTunes? I work at Advance Auto and I know everyone down there would love to see this!

    Not all Oldsmobile Diesels are DX blocks?

    they need to make a 350 olds stoker kit

    • @robroyce6845

      im stoked about Olds Small Block V8 strokers guise

  • @davidsnova
    @davidsnova 11 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Have you ever thought about boring out .125 and keeping the stock 3.385 stroke? It makes a tough revving 372 = 6.1 L .

    • @whocares.95
      @whocares.95 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      david Reid I heard of an oldsmobile man who did exactly what you are talking about using the 455 pontiac pistons. that would eat a sbc 383 stroker alive!

    All this time and you guys *still* havent put Bill's contact info or his website in to the description? Or some way to contact him somewhere?

  • @trucking604
    @trucking604 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I know the Olds diesel block had 350 CID, and you mentioned about the long stroke crank from the bigger engine, but what is the final CID this engine is going to end up with?

    • @V8TV
      @V8TV  7 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      The overbore and Olds 425 offset ground stroker crankshaft yielded 422 cubic inches.

    • @trucking604

  • @TheSnookthakrook
    @TheSnookthakrook 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    I wonna rebuild my 350 in my 72 cutlass but dont know were to start.lol..im new to the engine rebuilding thing

    • @72troy455
      @72troy455 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      First step is remove engine from chassis. Do alot of research. Buy alot of tools and make sure you have a buddy around that builds engines. It's not impossible.

  • @CuttykiddW
    @CuttykiddW 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    A not sure but I know that the first olds 425 motor came out and it had bigger lifeters as well is the lifter the same as this D.X block ?? Im a 425 lover and later in the year they made a block that used the 455 lifter

    • @robd7365
      @robd7365 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      My 67 330 has 0.921 lifters

    • @ThinkFreely2012
      @ThinkFreely2012 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Some of the 425s had 921 lifters, later ones had 842. The difference is they were all flat tappets, this DX diesel had roller lifters.

  • @gordon7443
    @gordon7443 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    did I miss something? he's using a diesel block? where did that come from I thought they were using the original block and sump.........

  • @jimclarke1108
    @jimclarke1108 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hi bill, could you please tell me why some 455 have the distributor in the front of the engine and some have it at the back of the engine? thank you, great advice. jim

    • @futten3230
      @futten3230 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      because oldsmobile pontiac and buick made 455`s and oldsmobile and pontiac had the distributor in the back while buick had it in the front

    • @victorialouden1912
      @victorialouden1912 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      buick has always had the distributor in the front and it being aluminum with steel gears from oil pump is the reason most Buicks fail and they did away after 80-81 no Buicks v-8 were made.

    • @victorialouden1912
      @victorialouden1912 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      after 81 Buicks v-8's were no more.

    • @72troy455
      @72troy455 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Those are called Buick engines. Only similarities are BOP bellhousing pattern and Q-jet pattern on the intake. Distributor cap also same.

    • @JosephCowen-fz8vj
      @JosephCowen-fz8vj 5 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Simple answer a Pontiac 455 and Buick 455 is not the same engine as an Oldsmobile 455

  • @tunnelportterror
    @tunnelportterror 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Bill, it doesn't matter what you've done, if your attitude towards prospective new customers, drives away more business than you ever did. naturally aspirated motors for drag racing don't want maximum stroke, just ask the pro stock guys...better yet ask the NASCAR and Formula 1 guys...and the guys that run LeMans...if it's all about stroke, why didn't you drop a 4.25" 455 Olds crank in that diesel block then ? it appears you've went the boosted power adder route, so cylinder head flow no longer matters, when you're blowing it in...

    • @juliennacer8871
      @juliennacer8871 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      ofc cylinder head flow matters in boosted applications dingbat. you think top fuel drag team spend all that money on the latest heads for nothing? Look at import drag racing/road racing, those guys spend big money on cnc porting, but apparently its all money wasted lmao

  • @davidsnova
    @davidsnova 12 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Diesel 350s were made in the early 80s. not 70s .

    • @mikemcgrew65
      @mikemcgrew65 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Oldsmobile 350D diesel with flat lifters and pencil injectors was 1978 to 1980 in cars and 1978 to 1981 in pickups, 1981 Oldsmobile came out with the 350 DX with a roller cam and lifters, poppet injectors, HPCA on the IP and HP was dropped to 105 and torque 220 lb ft

    • @JosephCowen-fz8vj
      @JosephCowen-fz8vj 5 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Yes plenty of Oldsmobile Diesels came out in 1970s

  • @BrokenPoetics

    1977-1980. Think before you speak.

  • @davidsnova
    @davidsnova 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    I was thinking that the olds 350 DX diesel didn't come out til the early 80s . I know that the D block 350 was an earlier engine that will accept a standard lifter. This guy says nothing of blocking off oil flow to where the injector pump came out. using oil restrictors or spacing the cam for proper chain alignment . Btw their is a lifter that will fit the DX 350 block .ha ha.

    • @72troy455
      @72troy455 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Guess you know more than this guy huh. Dipshit.

    • @72troy455
      @72troy455 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      This dude has probably forgot more about Olds engines than you'll ever know. I've followed his builds for many years, dudes top notch.

  • @jordanwiley4582
    @jordanwiley4582 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    They weren't made in the 70s, it was a product of the 80s.

    • @V8TV
      @V8TV  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      1978-1985

    • @72troy455
      @72troy455 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Tooled up in the 70s. You gonna correct people you should at least know what the fuck your talking about.

    • @JosephCowen-fz8vj
      @JosephCowen-fz8vj 5 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Yes thousands of Oldsmobile Diesels came out in the 1970s . The whole engine was in response to the 1970s oil crisis.
