Mr. Morris just wanted to state the obvious. Your engines are extremely extraordinary. The engines you and your team build are the fastest artwork in the World! I really don’t think most people understand what you have accomplished, by building a reliable engine you can drive to the drag strip on pump gas, and then with a few changes, one be fuel. Pull up to the lights, the green lights up, you set the engine free, and 6 seconds later you just went 200 mph. There are so few people in the World that are lucky enough to live through that, and your engines make it possible. Thank You for sharing what you do though TH-cam. Your story and new updates have been inspiring.
Everybody's views are down this time of year. The kids are getting back to school there's a bunch of stuff going on it'll pick back up. THANK YOU FOR THE INFORMATION YOU GIVE US BROTHER.
I can vouch for that for sure, my kid is a freshman this year and his schedule is insane. The shop where I work has slowed down a little too, always does at the beginning of the school year. It'll pick back up after labor day.
I've noticed the passed month most of the channels I'm subbed to haven't been making as many videos. I had to think about it ans was like. They probably doing stuff with family before school starts.
You’re the man Steve. Heard about you probably close to 10 years ago. Glad you’ve gotten some serious recognition for your skills with a engine. The SMX and SML are gorgeous powerhouses
Steve i could listen to you all day long, absolutely love these videos as does wifey. We not even v8 heads ( import, 4,6, rotor etc ) but we cannot get enough of your knowledge and seeing the workings. Dyno never gets old and the drive/drag/testing OMG Biggest fans from across Pond Keep doin what your doin
I really enjoy full engine build videos … so awesome… building a drag & Drive vehicle then watching what goes into a successful race is incredible to see .. great shows are always here 👍👍🏆😁
Great info Steve!! I have been wondering what the difference was. Just a few videos ago I figured out that the SML was using some off the shelf LS components. Thanks for sharing!
Great content, so impressed with your incredible knowledge and understanding of your engines and designs. You have a great ability to break things down into more laymen’s terms for us folks that really want to learn and understand how and what makes the components work as why and what makes them far superior than most other engines and builders. Thank you for sharing your knowledge as well as your journeys. Thank you again.
Steve. I love your content! You always keep me watching! It's like the beginning of videos. Danger you may learn something. I find your videos so fascinating. Billet blocks, how you put sleeves in, your designs using the best of the best of different engines. Cobbling them all together to build the best and most reliable easy to get parts high horsepower engines to offer to the racing world. Utterly amazing! As a die hard mechanic who loves what he does, It is sad to see some people are not as drawn to see what you offer and the info on all your stuff you give to us as I. Please keep posting. To you and your crew. Keep up the fantastic work!
I was just reading an article in Hot Rod magazine (December 2006 issue) it has a cool little write up on one of your engines and how to make 1,740hp on pump gas. The wagon is two-tone in the article and just went 9.57. Really cool to see how far you and the wagon have come!
Designs and builds world class race motors, runs a a company, races multiple drag and drive events, has the time for 5 plus you tube videos per week, and is a quality father. How he does not have a couple million subscribers is beyond me,
The machine work and appearance, SPOT ON The thought process behind every little detail . The mains , the extra bolt in the intake port. All signs of true genius. And not to mention a crap load of R and D, I'm willing to bet a few late nights as well. Great stuff Steve, it would be a honor to one day come to your shop. Look at Kyle's car in the background, how are the new pistons coming?
Awesome ty for the flow rates, obviously there has to be a sacrifice of strength to tolerances. Extra clamping force always wins..... just add more boost!
I stopped in here on a personal scavenger hunt to find out what Cleetus plans to put in his 5000+ hp car being built by CJRC Fabrication. Phenomenal video! Thanks!
personally i really like your content. you do great work and explain things very well. personally would love to get more involved with tuning. thanks for everything you do. Grew up in Fruitport MI. I live in the area as a dealership tech.
He has the time slips and trophies to back up the talk. He rarely mentions that his engines win competitions consistently. He also has obviously taken some training on how to do good videos to get his info across without looking smug, superior or slick.
4500+ HP in a street car? You guys have really taken this to the next level and then some. I grew up when 500+ HP was a hot street car engine. And, I learn something every time I watch one of your videos. That SMX is a Monster.
algorithm lovin for your engines. I remember doing contract work for Schilling Robotics at a CNC shop when I was a highschool kid 25 years ago. Nothing quite as pretty as a brand new chunk of billet turned into something amazing.
Fantastic video. These pieces look so beautiful. Love the content. The videos are getting better with each one. From the editing, to the camera work, to the actual content. I think others are saying no click bait BS either. Keep it up. Will the drive week videos be here or another channel? GL.
Steve your videos are so awesome, I'm an aircooled VW guy and have learned the majority of my V8 and turbo knowledge through your channel ❤ please keep creating the awesome content!
Steve really love seeing the engines together to compare, my very first job was in an automotive machine shop, later went for more money but missed out on doing what I truly loved. Thanks for brightening up my day
Hey now, I've been following your builds even before you got your 1st CNC mill, when you contracted out for Cnc. If I had the funds, SM engines would get it. I remember when you where a port and blueprint shop
Thanks Uncle Steve for showing us what dreams are made of and that it can be reality. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience your vids always inspires. Keep up with the good work.
As other people have said, I think views always drop in August due to people being on vacation and out enjoying the last of the summer. The content is amazing as always, I'm sure the numbers will be up again once fall sets in and the kids are back at school. Keep up the great work, looking forward to seeing how that torque converter performs.
Did he really just say the analytics have plummeted? I’m shocked. There’s so much value in these videos. Huge fan, look forward to the uploads, thanks Steve
1st week of August is when things take a dip. My business would fall flat on its face around back to school time, then there was a short 2 week rush for Thanksgiving and the same 2 week rush before Xmas. TH-cam picks back up around the holidays generally.
I really enjoyed the podcast with HPA(Andre)! Much love to yall at the shop.. You're a rare breed, Steve, you're cylinder heads are immaculate (how can you worry about 10hp at >2000hp, if it doesn't live, it doesn't matter). These combinations are incredible!
The torque converter. Hmm well since its a Chance convertor i think a bolt together unit this can be beneficial ..i think Georend does this also. If its not a lock up unit then i say its designed in a way to more efficient.. i think i read a short article about a power pump converter. If its a lock up unit may be it can be using along with traction control. Whatever it is i sure its very good piece. Enjoy the videos
I watched your video where your son and you did the interview. It was great. The thing I saw was your perseverance on your idea. You never left that. Good Job.
Keep up the awesome videos! Would love to see some cnc stuff! As a fellow machinist, all of the operations that go into making a set of heads or a block without a miss is really top notch. Love it!
Steve- Incredible work by you and your team to design and build those engines! I wish I had the budget to build a second generation Miata with a turbo SML in it and somehow figure out how to get traction. Thanks for these videos!
Not being a jerk but I would assume the analytics have plummeted as the Cleetus content has run it’s course or you really haven’t had much going on related to him lately. I would venture to guess that a large portion of your subscribers were gained from him. With him hardly racing Mullet there’s really nothing draw that segment of viewers in. There’s only going to be so many people interested in the true hardcore technical info/content. Not a knock on you just the the attention span of the average viewer isn’t there and only getting shorter but that’s an entirely different conversation (thank you internet). Anywho what do I know, just some insight…
Given your explanation on why the SMX has quite a bit of thick sleeve at the top, I'm surprised that the SML only has a small section that seems to be a register rather than for extra strength
@@TheEnergizer1965 right, but it's machined for the sleeve and the counterbore (or whatever you want to call it) depth at the top is minimal, without going back and looking I'm guessing 1/4" or so, vs the 1.5" on the SMX
@@totensiebush It’s an engine with LS bore spacing. Like I said, this mean you can install a very thick sleeve of the bore is standard 427 ci bore. Then there is no need for a tall step like in the SMX.
Those engines are absolute works of automotive art would love to have one of those in a vehicle I own unfortunately they probably cost more than my car did.

Military training/PCS season, back to school, etc.
You’re the man Steve. Heard about you probably close to 10 years ago. Glad you’ve gotten some serious recognition for your skills with a engine. The SMX and SML are gorgeous powerhouses
I remember reading about Steve in Hotrod mag back when he was first doing an all aluminum water jacket block for Tom.

Both engines are definite works of art.

Amazing to see the engineering that goes in to it. We can see ur passion for it.
Being a diesel guy myself, I enjoy how you take the time to teach us about your engines and build styles

Awesome tech video. Steve what's the difference in average peak torque and torque curve on both engines?
Cant believe there arent more views.....fascinating engines and knowledge!
personally i really like your content. you do great work and explain things very well. personally would love to get more involved with tuning. thanks for everything you do. Grew up in Fruitport MI. I live in the area as a dealership tech.
I would love to have either engine! Just a work of art!
I need to invest more... Passives are not high enough for this quality.
Can’t wait to see what wagon does with new converter
Steve, You are just proving that excellence always gets to the top. Great video skills / editing - Keep living the dream...
i watch all your videos as soon as i see them up.i cant wait till you make some more at the track.
I Love how Steve is super confident without coming across as arrogant.
He has the time slips and trophies to back up the talk. He rarely mentions that his engines win competitions consistently. He also has obviously taken some training on how to do good videos to get his info across without looking smug, superior or slick.

Amazing info. Very amazing the amount of knowledge you have amassed.
Commenting to help your algorithms, but seriously your content is bad ass, love the knowledge you share even though I’ll never be at this level.
Burnout car is a Toyota starlett. 540ci with blower.
Hey now, I've been following your builds even before you got your 1st CNC mill, when you contracted out for Cnc. If I had the funds, SM engines would get it. I remember when you where a port and blueprint shop
Thanks for sharing this. Really good info.
Just know you are reaching the real engine folks out here k Steve! Love the vids and info
God damn. These cylinder heads are pieces of art work. The amount of detail is wild.
Steve Morris is the original bad ass Often imitated never duplicated.. You know who I'll call if I ever win the lottery.❤
I keep thinking the same thing
I was hoping, judging by the thumbnail, that "the little guy" was Kyle's new engine, lol.
Thanks Uncle Steve for showing us what dreams are made of and that it can be reality. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience your vids always inspires. Keep up with the good work.
I Didn't realize how much bigger the SMX is, WOW!
It is so cool how u go over everything with total honesty and info and facts and u explain everything so well so thank you

More views when cleetus is blowing his engines up lol
Kinda wish cleetus would swap to the sml just because the ls platform has been such a staple in all his builds!
Amazing engines you’ve created! Very much appreciate your videos. Thank you Steve Morris!!

Great information as always. Thanks Steve for all you do.
Thanks
Thanks for this video, Steve! Had always wondered, but the physical comparison was awesome to see!
really like your content steve please keep up the good work Godspeed
Your a genuine muther trucker Steve... we love your content and commitment to the petrol head's that we are 💯❤️

Really great video Steve. I enjoyed it very much.
If a fella was tickling the thoughts on a SML purchase where would be a good place to set his peepers?
Steve and Kyle y'all rock! Love the engine stuff. Peace
Absolutely love Steve’s excitement. How proud he is of his babies💪
Your doing awesome buddy, keep doing what your doing!
wicked to see the differences thank for the insight
Great video! Really like seeing the detailed breakdown of the engines.
Steve is both. Super knowledgeable and a great storyteller! So interesting!
I watched your video where your son and you did the interview. It was great. The thing I saw was your perseverance on your idea. You never left that. Good Job.
Another great video. Awesome information, please keep them coming. The views will go back up.

I watch most of your videos, not all, but most. Luv em! The size of the SMX is off the hook!
Cool to be shown the difference in engines.thankyou for taking time out.peace
Good morning from the UK.. I love these vids & try to never miss one..
You build some wild shit mate, kin excellent stuff.
🙂
When those are trying to change our world to electric vehicles, you are pioneering new engines. Absolutely love it.
Great side by side video. Everyone should own at least one of them!!

Given your explanation on why the SMX has quite a bit of thick sleeve at the top, I'm surprised that the SML only has a small section that seems to be a register rather than for extra strength
If that’s a 4.125 bore, that whole sleeve is pretty darn thick.
It hasn't even got the sleeve in it yet
@@TheEnergizer1965 right, but it's machined for the sleeve and the counterbore (or whatever you want to call it) depth at the top is minimal, without going back and looking I'm guessing 1/4" or so, vs the 1.5" on the SMX

So sick. Imagine a day when you can get any of your favorite engines smx style like the ford and Chrysler v8s, ecotechs, 4g63s and 2jzs.
Hey Steve good video mate...surprised the numbers are down because your content just gets better and better...👍
Those engines are absolute works of automotive art would love to have one of those in a vehicle I own unfortunately they probably cost more than my car did.
Great video like always. I'm guessing the top secret converter is some new designed lockup converter just my 2 cents😊
I thaught this aswell, the wagon will be crazy with a lock up
Very informative and easy to understand
Of alll the hot rod stuff I watch, this is easily my favorite. I may be retired but this is the stuff I'd drool over in the 80's :P
Always impressive stuff Steve! The SMX and SML are definitely meticulously designed, and designed well.
Awesome video learning lots 😊
beautiful engines,sparkles like a diamond.hope to see you at cleetus n cars.
Like ya said , " Innovation not Imitation". Amazing stuff
Hey Steve, great content as always. Was that first manifold design for Andy Frost and his Red Victor?
The SML is you, and the SMX is the guy she tells you not to worry about!
I’m actually a plane old truck 5.3 and the smx is the guy she tells me not to worry about.
I think you’re giving me more credit than I deserve
Omg I went to comments to write exactly that!
Such a awesome video about the differences of these two absolutely badass engines pure works of art!!!
