@@bigboreracing356 you can't be sure of that. Bore and stroke are different, head flow, cam design are all different. My custom lsx454 with ported stock LS7 heads makes about 700 crank hp.

@@bigboreracing356 oh I know and I agree. I just think overall it would be such a fun test to show how technology has advanced over the years.

@@doughuncklerspeedgangster7061 hey really was NASCAR that came from the moonshiners but I just thought you was getting farfetch with what he was saying
Coming back from WW2 , being taught about, and working with all that technology-- like V-12s, turbochargers in the P-38, etc.. And hey, a drop tank makes a great body for a dry lakes car. They passed those enthusiasms on to their kids.
To me, and after seeing the old school go to new school, the new school tech has allowed truly streetable, reliable and relatively inexpensive 1000hp engines to exist. Race engines are now undercammed truck engines.....all the moderns have race blocks and race heads from the factory. 6 bolt mains and high flow heads were unheard of 30 years ago.
That is some serious work to test all those different configurations. 👍 If you modify your car and you are happy about it, you succeeded in my opinion.
I agree! LS engines are great. I have one in my truck, it’s fast, it makes great power. But I also have a 2.2L, and instead of swapping it for another LS I’m also going to make it fast😁 because like you said there’s more then one way to make power and have fun👍🏼
Datsun / Nissan RBs were never sold to N. America. Nissan's best engine historically. Over 5 decades of aftermarket tuning & modifications. & still revelant today.
@@ryanmalin you telling me. I would love a nice RB maybe 2.5L & a small turbo. Definitely one of Japan's epic engines. Currently building a SR20DETT & 5spd for a hilux.
It is hard to over-carb a roots blower. At 7.3lbs, you're pushing in about 1.5 times atmosphere - so effectively 383x1.5=575cid. A true 575 would have no problem using 2x 950cfm on the right manifold/head/cam combo.
Richard, with Chevrolet having so many 3600 engines in everything now. From the Camaro to the traverse, I'd like to see you turbo one of those engines. Thanks
Maybe next video, wait for the caffeine to wear off a little bit?...lol. Gotta love these Big blower tests...because I would never do it, but you'll see it here! Keep em coming, we're watching!
I’m 38 and feel like I’m in the middle. I grew up around SBC and BBC then the LS came out but was really only in F bodies and Vettes. When everyone caught on that the truck engines were almost the same it was still too expensive to play with. Now “LS” is just like the SBC the parts are everywhere, cheap and the aftermarket is huge and they are even more reliable and the SBC was a standard of n hot rodding reliability. long story short I like the old school and new school.
I wonder how this thing would perform with the blower and a throttle body Injection setup to be able to keep all the benefits of fuel injection as far as for tuning potential.
The difference of 6 cubic inches isn't going to show a change in the power curve, his previous testing has shown that even with slightly different bore and stroke combos, when they are about the same cubic inch, you're not going to see a visible change of maybe a couple hp/tq
The boomers were young when muscle cars came out. Millennials are young now that we're in the baddest horsepower war ever! At the end of the day, Richard is right. It would be in our best interest to do what we do, because we love doing it. If you're always in a competitive mood, you're going to deny yourself the ability to enjoy the full ability of whatever it is you've built. On a side note, holy crap, an LS rocks with a 6-71
Try with E-85 the blower needs that kind of cooling never pump gas again when dealing with blower the E85 will act as a intercooler and pick back up more horse while being reliable 💯.. Blower should never be recommended with regular gas for the lack of a Intercooler... Even if you 9:2:1 on the Motor Procharger and other come with intercooler so pump gas is super reliable on those Applications... Blower Applications should always Run either E-85, methanol or race gas only if you wanna make real power while being reliable 😎
It's all great. An LS screaming at 8000+ has something special going on, just like the shotgun blast exhaust of a 14-71 blown 532 with 14:1 compression, or a Ford revving to 11+k. It's all fun, but I am probably a BBC guy at heart, and I'm not even an actual boomer. Hmmm, this begs the question. Boomer vs. Millies. Where do we late gen X'ers like you and me fit in?
Richard, you are a very informative fellow and I like that you are out of the boa as well! But we’ve all heard a turbo ls, and supercharged ls. WE WANT TO HEAR A BLOWN LS!!! Please and thank you.
I am a millenial and I work with a person considered as a boomer. We get along much better than with younger people (like middle-age as my parents are) Maybe it comes from that that I spent so much time with my grandad as he taught me like everything from surviving skills to car building. 😃
The age-old question, going for show or go? The first time I remember seeing a blower car on the street was a family trip out west in ‘62. A guy came through our camp ground in a ‘56 Chevy with a 6-71 sticking through the hood. Looked and sounded awesome! But you can make that 7.3 psi with an eBay turbo for pennies these days. We live in very interesting times!
Speaking different ways of doing things I put a 5.0 Coyote in a 2ed gen Camaro just because I was bored of small blocks and an LS swap wasn't weird enough. 😁

Richard, please run an Olds Quad 4 as part of your 'other guys' series; they already look like a baby Offy, I think it would be awesome to see a big single turbo hanging off the back of one like a 70's indycar! They made 190 HP stock and revved to 7 grand, 400+ HP shouldn't be out of the question.
I agree with him on needing to stick together because I have built alot of fast cars out of asking for favors to looking through people's old parts bins who cares what it is use what you got and make your car fast and embarrass some people at a stoplight..... Still waiting on the caddilac 500 motor to I have always wanted to build one
Listen we all know the Gen Xer's are the undisputed kings in all of this. We're old enough to know the old way of doing things but not so old that we can't master the new tech either. We were the last generation that was truly balanced between all the old and new technology.
Richard, where do you get those funny shirts you wear? And why don’t you have a merchandise store attached to your channel selling them to help pay for your engines?
Hey Richard what happened to the "Other Guys"? I am looking forward to seeing that Buick 455 hopped up and the inline straight 6 engine reach its full potential.
So since the BB videos you filmed made me jealous of the Tq production-lol- and I’m already committed to the LS looks like the roots style supercharger is the way to go.
I was just reading a thread on how to build a 560hp 383 SBC. Those guys were doing big cnc afr heads, 250* solid roller, 11.5:1 cr and JUST getting there. The 383ls you did here could be driving gramma to church and probably get decent gas mileage to boot.
I want to see some smaller displacement 4cyl action preferably with nitrous! Also yes plls a series based out of just slapping a 671 on anything it fits would be lovely. Maybe even some 6cyl blower action!
Imagine huge displacement big block with modern tech like variable timing and GDI I'd be in heaven! I like LS and coyotes but I also like old school 'boomer' stuff too their stuff is what got me into cars in the first place
Hey Richard, love the channel. I don’t think runner length will make much difference when using boost. Could be tested with blow thru carb and a turbo.
Richard, yet another question. Where did you end up timing wise? Normal SBC timing curves still seem to end quite high on roots blower vs turbo. Still the case with LS?
On this same note, it would be AWESOME to see a "millennial" 454lsx crate motor vs a "boomer" 454bbc crate!
A battle of valve train efficiency and head flow? Sounds interesting
@@bigboreracing356 Isn't it externally a much smaller package as well? As in small block small? I've not been up close to a lot of LS7/LSX454's

I agree with him on needing to stick together because I have built alot of fast cars out of asking for favors to looking through people's old parts bins who cares what it is use what you got and make your car fast and embarrass some people at a stoplight..... Still waiting on the caddilac 500 motor to I have always wanted to build one
Love the testing !!
The intro was as good as the test!
Awesome vid, again. Inspirational. Aussie love HP.
Doesn’t matter where your from build it bigger better faster.
I’d love to see an oh dual carb tunnel ram on an ls!!! Could you turbo or better yet twin turbo a setup like that?
Listen we all know the Gen Xer's are the undisputed kings in all of this. We're old enough to know the old way of doing things but not so old that we can't master the new tech either. We were the last generation that was truly balanced between all the old and new technology.
I love this combo! However, Again, I want to hear these things! Where are the dyno videos?
You had my full attention at RB25 ♥️
Richard, where do you get those funny shirts you wear? And why don’t you have a merchandise store attached to your channel selling them to help pay for your engines?
I've asked the same in the past. All gear heads would buy them. Me for one!
Hey Richard what happened to the "Other Guys"? I am looking forward to seeing that Buick 455 hopped up and the inline straight 6 engine reach its full potential.
Its a coming.
So since the BB videos you filmed made me jealous of the Tq production-lol- and I’m already committed to the LS looks like the roots style supercharger is the way to go.
I can’t find it but would be cool on a full build list for this
I was just reading a thread on how to build a 560hp 383 SBC. Those guys were doing big cnc afr heads, 250* solid roller, 11.5:1 cr and JUST getting there. The 383ls you did here could be driving gramma to church and probably get decent gas mileage to boot.
I want to see some smaller displacement 4cyl action preferably with nitrous! Also yes plls a series based out of just slapping a 671 on anything it fits would be lovely. Maybe even some 6cyl blower action!
Richard making world’s collide , like he should.
Imagine huge displacement big block with modern tech like variable timing and GDI I'd be in heaven! I like LS and coyotes but I also like old school 'boomer' stuff too their stuff is what got me into cars in the first place
Hey Richard, love the channel. I don’t think runner length will make much difference when using boost. Could be tested with blow thru carb and a turbo.
runner length always matters
Built a 5.3 with an 8:71 blower supported by Holley on E 85. It’s a ripper in a burnout truck
Just like wearing a mask some folks just don't listen and after a whole video
Hey Rich , keepup the great content
This was a really relative video to my plans for my S10 project
Mr Holdener, if an old school Crossram Intake from the 60's ever comes your way, please test it.
Sad that you had to give the talk at the start. Can't wait for the RB25. We have heaps of them here in Australia.
Love an old roots blower, I’ve always wondered how it’d work on an LS. I wasn’t sure one would bolt up...
People have been making adaptors
for old school 671 blowers for LS for a while now. Not necessarily manufacturers but one offs.
Yes and get VIDEO WITH THE 671 gotta get a bit of blower surge, gotta love blower surge
I'm Building a LS with a 871 thanks for some info trying to figure what cam to run.
Richard, yet another question. Where did you end up timing wise? Normal SBC timing curves still seem to end quite high on roots blower vs turbo. Still the case with LS?
23 degrees
I based my entire 6.0 build off your channel man haha. Can't wait to have it complete! You should spin an lsa SC to its max haha.
