    Another big power sbe video

    I love this guy's stuff: He's making mid 600's at the wheels. So 750ish crank in a sbe 5.9. Very impressive and makes me wonder-again-what the limits really are.

    Maximizing flow limited combos?

    Hey fellas. This is a different spin on a common theme here, relating to power potential vs. flow capabilities of the cyl head. My particular challenge, at present is I have an OOTB set of aftermarket heads that are flow limited. These are slated for attachment to a 4" stroker combo. (In my...

    Don't read if you're close minded

    Eric W on YouTube did something interesting. He put a dominator carburetor on both small block and big block combos.... With a dual plane. Back to back testing against a proven 4150 carb, with similar flow numbers. In both cases the dominator... Dominated! Very curious what you guys think...

    Hot 340/418 street/strip build

    I really need to get this put together. The finished block has been sitting under my workbench for.... probably a year and a half now. Anyway, finally getting some time to work on it. It's a 340 block, 0.40 over. So that makes for a pretty big bore size of 4.080. This was originally planned as...

    SBE Turbo magnum teardown

    This is the Dakota with a stock bottom end magnum, that this guy's been hammering for years. He finally broke it at 17 psi and he was running low 10s. He did a teardown video. What a cool channel.

    A real testament to stock bottom end capabilities

    I watch this guy's videos occasionally. I think he's actually a member here BTW. Anyhow he's got this big heavy truck he uses for burnout contests and the like. He gets a stock bottom end magnum 5.9, runs the absolute snot out of it under massive boost, essentially running it to total failure...

    [WANTED] Mild hyd roller cam for magnum

    Looking for a mild cam for a 5.9 I just purchased.

    Thinking about buying this magnum what do you guys think?

    I found this engine locally for sale. 5.9 magnum, supposed around 140k miles. I can't go look at it in person but I want to go ahead and buy it. I asked for pics under the valve covers and he complied. I don't think it looks too bad what do you guys think?

    One for the 318 lovers

    Some things are timeless, including the path to good power production. Here's a build from 1988 that is still absolutely relevant now. Probably not many people would bother with iron heads these days given the availability of economic aluminum heads, but most of the parts an pieces here would...

    SB vs BB who wins?

    Ok so this is one I've been pondering for a bit. Just to preface, it's purely an academic exercise to see if I can learn something. So, take a stroker SB of choice. Call it a 408. Could be 390, or 416. Now take a 383/400/or 413. No stroker big blocks, that's not in the spirit of the...

    [SOLD] 318/340 ROAD RACE oil pan Milodon

    Used only on initial break in. Pan wouldn't clear my hedman husslers so had to change pans. I did have to add clearance notches for the windage tray studs, something anyone adding this pan probably would need anyhow. Required oil pump pickup included. These are going for about 600 right now...

    [FOR SALE] SB 340 stroker pistons

    Up for sale is an essentially new set of icon forged pistons. 4.070 bore 4.00 stroke. They were run through two heat cycles and I had to tear down the engine because of a cam bearing failure. There were other issues with the machining on the block and I ended up having to go up another size on...

    Copper vs. Aluminum

    Hey fellas. So I've been doing some work with my engineering consultancy lately involving the use of copper conductors, and have had to look at both electrical and thermal conductivity of aluminum vs. Copper. I knew for a long time that copper was more efficient than aluminum as a heat...

    Contemplating a new (ish) direction

    So I've been going back and forth now forever on my build, and to be honest I really just want to get it put together. I really want to go turbo but it's not realistically in the picture to go that route at this juncture. Also, I already have a combination of parts that I can basically put...

    ONE BAD BOY!

    Dang. You know it's badass when load in is 6500! I can only imagine what goes into something like that.

    Super low buck turbo truck

    This guy seems pretty cool. He's basically running the snot out of basically stock 5.9 magnum engines, running a turbo. Claims he's trying to get to 20lbs boost on a stock high mileage bottom end. Anyway not everyone's cup of tea for sure but I think this kinda thing is pretty cool...

    [WANTED] Valiant windows and regulators

    Hey guys, I just purchased a 1967 valiant that was a drag car. It's got stationary lexan windows and I want to put glass with regulators back in. Does anyone have driver and passenger glass and regulators/misc hardware for this? Thanks!

    Chassis shop in Georgia?

    Hey guys, I'm considering having a roll cage and other chassis reinforcements installed. Probably would go with chromeoly to keep weight down. Does anyone know a good shop in Georgia that can help me with this?

    Riddle me this, Batman!

    Ok, I'm kinda stumped here. Almost embarrassed to even ask here but I am scratching my head. This is on my mostly stock 360 build going into the dart. It's stock except for a comp 265 deh cam, headers and a Holley vacuum secondary. 0.030 over. It's running good on the stand. HOWEVER... When I...

    Cool block prep tips

    I thought some of these ideas were pretty cool. This is Steve dulcich prepping a 440 block and has some cool ways of prepping especially with getting it ready for paint. The sound sucks but the content is interesting. Curious what you guys think about it?

    Help me sort out a 10 second build

    Hey guys. Lofty ambitions but I'm thinking about this a lot lately. Have a new gig so financial situation is hopefully going to be stabilizing so I can think about a proper buildup again. I'd like to use as much of what I have on hand as possible, but I'm not opposed to changing parts out to...

    Interesting video on lifters

    I found this video very interesting. Definitely the first factual and technical discussion of flat tappet lifter issues I've seen. If you're into lots of entertainment or smoke and mirrors this one isn't for you. I'll be watching more of this guys stuff.

    Timing Chain Drip Tab PN?

    Hey guys I'm trying to find a replacement drip tab for the timing chain drip oiling. I can't seem to find this anywhere. I did post in the wanted section but not having any real luck there. If this doesn't exist I'll probably just have some laser cut. Could someone here drop a couple pics up...

    [WANTED] 360 SB Flywheel

    I'm looking for a flywheel so I can run my engine on a test stand without the torque converter. Since this will be low rpm and not used with a clutch, an old worn out flywheel could be fine, all it really needs is that the starter ring gear is in decent shape.

    Highest flowing sbm heads?

    I've looked through the head flow pages, and generally noticed, there's no heads out there that significantly surpass 300 cfm. What's the highest flowing sbm head, that's not some exotic thing requiring a race block? What would a max ported W2 head flow? Just curious because I have this...
