    That last comparison screen really makes a point. With enough rpm, a small amount of torque will give you the power, but more cubes means more torque where you’re going to use it on the street. I found it amazing that the 5.7 made the 500 hp with such a small cam. Most 5.3 blocks can take that 3.900 bore, and that might be easier than finding a 6.0... Another amazing presentation! By far my favorite channel.

    Back in 2008, I used Dart heads on my LS1 with a too big cam from Futral. With the LS6 intake, ported stock TB, catted longtubes, Borla catback, SLP lid, 4.10 gears, and tune I made 430 rwhp. I ran 121 mph on street tires. Lesson learned, check Dart's valve guides as mine were junk brand new and after pulling them and getting them resleeved as it was drinking a quart of oil every 1,000 miles, it spun a rod bearing on the subsequent re-tuning pull.

    LS3 LLoves cam's and boost. True words, My LS3 with LS9 cam and AGP twins made 605 at the wheels with low 15deg timing on pump 93. I feel the heads are a huge factor in these making so much power. I've seen several tests with the different heads in the LS family. What I would like to see is the new LT heads, if you Tig the Injector port closed and mount them on the LS family, they are said to out flow even the 823 heads stock. I was told by a head shop the stud pattern is the same.

    • @trailerparkcryptoking5213
      @trailerparkcryptoking5213 27 วันที่ผ่านมา

      According to Brian Tooley the extra air flow is due to the direct injection having an increased airflow rate of 8% due to the fuel not obstructing the airflow in the port. When you disable the DI and go straight port injection you are going to lose 8% of the airflow when you inject fuel into the port!

    I think that 4.8 is a killer combo, if the 5.3 had the same top end as the 4.8 I bet it would have made at least 500 with more average power. If you look close you can see that the 4.8 didn’t loose any low end

      @ShyaMiss 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      5.3, 5.7, 6.0, and 6.2 LS engines all share the same stroke. Only the bore changes with each displacement change. I imagine that the higher compression that the ls1 is sporting, as well as the larger bore unshrouding the valves a bit more, are the likely factors in its dramatic difference vs the 5.3. Since many 5.3 blocks can take an over bore to reach the ls1 bore, building an iron block ls1 is a pretty straight forward process.

    Great stuff! No one else does it like this, you are the man Richard! How about a comparison of the "truck" cams. I just put a BTR stage 1 truck cam in my 5.3. It runs great, but have no idea of "the numbers" it is making. The 400, 500, 600 etc combos are great,but at what point on these combinations, would I be needing a torq converter and or gears? Getting ready to build another 88-98 Chevy pickup with a 5.3. Based on ease of tuning and a target around 450-500, would you go n/a over turbo? Thanks again for putting out such great material.

    Richard stated that putting the motor in a car will drop 100hp from his dyno. So having 500hp would be a bare min in my mind.

      @romero.4089 4 ปีที่แล้ว +12

      So if you want 400 hp use this video. If 500 then use the 600 hp video and so on and that’s exactly what I was thinking

  • @BooLS2SS
    @BooLS2SS 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    What kind of dyno is that? I don't understand how a stock 6.0 would make 442hp!
    My stock tbss 6.0 made 316hp and I have seen some guys cars on the tbss forum that made below 300hp.
    Now I have a cam and boltons and the truck made 404hp.

    @circuitkinggarage8643 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I just picked up a LY2 for my E36 Project, I'm gonna send the heads over too TEA for their Stage 2 CNC along with Hollow Stem Valves and hopefully milling the head down to 58 to 60cc and use 0.027 headgaskets. I also plan on running Brian Tooleys Custom Road Race Cam which is a 235/250 113+4 lsa .614/.605.
    I'm on the fence whether I should stick with the TBSS style intake or pick up a Holley Hi-Ram

    If you have a truck with a 4.8 or 5.3, can you just buy a 6.0 and bolt it directly in place, or do you have to make changes to get it to work?

      Stock injectors won't feed this power level. We have a big pump on the dyno and these motors require bigger injectors

    I knew the 6.0's were a great base to start with, but with how easy it was to get 500 I was almost worried about what mine might end up at after spending all night figuring out what injectors I felt I needed.
