The blower looks huge with that small block attached to it xD

Truth is, Blower used for $1700. Completely remachined and rebuilt in the tool room at my work. Heads used for $400. Short block un-assembled but new from a friend, $500. Carbs-Ebay $200. I only spent about $800 with Jegs for ignition, starter, Flywheel, pulleys and brackets. Plus extras I only totaled $3800. Not bad. Sold it for $6500. Even better.

i was waiting for the engine to fall off the stand lol

That Is VICIOUS Dude!

Gordon, What power valve is in carbs? You need LOTS of enrichment for a blower motor. I installed high flow, 4.5 power valves. That is one thing. Holley carbs seem simple at first glance but there are a ton of tricks to tuning one. I suggest starting out with 75 or 76 main jets for a blower. Make sure you get some of the idle speed from the secondaries. Primary idle should be about 1-1/2 turns. Idle mixture screws should end up at 3/4 or 1. Then comes accelerator pump adjustments. Check floats.

it amazes me how many so called "builders" use an assembly engine stand as a run in stand....I'm waiting for one to blow over !!

Where did you get your plug wire looms and what is the model number? I really like them!

Yeah...it looks nice but can it pull a plow ?

what is your pressure regulator

Do I hear a scotchman ironworker in the background?

man this guy loves showing how much MONEY he spent thru (SUMMIT) ,(JEGS),(E.T.C) for all his performance parts........ pretty sweet tho!!!!!

hi what size mech pump.

Is it the camera or is it not running on all 8?

can someone explain how it works, does it work like a normal carburetted engine where the air goes through the carb and mixes with the fuel or does this use some sort of fuel injection

something sounds wrong. But I'm going to assume its just the audio on the video or you recorded a go-cart engine.

Good set up what hp and torque ? From maniacal s10 KZfaq.

Could somebody explain to me whats the difference between a blower and a usual supercharger, please?

two words... HOLY F***

why did you even bother with a mechanical fuel pump??

Truth be told if you want to make huge power #s superchargers is where it's at look at nhra drag and funny cars damn near everyone of them run a roots style blower and twin magneto twin plug ignitions they pull hard off the line right on thru to the end you can't do that with a turbo .......yet Volvo is working on a triple turbo system now that uses a 48 volt electric turbo to spool up the exhaust driven turbos looked pretty interesting there's a story about it in I think jan orfeb 2015 hotrod mag which kinda leads me to think we might be seeing tiny engines spinning huge rpm#s making big power my question is how long will these tiny engines last working at these high rpms at all the time and the heat don't really matter all cars are disposable now I'm going to stick with my oldies with carbs an points ignitions I drive my grandfather's 65 ford f100 he bought new in late 64 every day it's my daily driver and it's all most all original except the wheels and steering wheel it's got the 300 straight 6 and a 3 on the tree and it nearly is to a cool million I did do a valve job and replaced the cam followers push rods an rocker arms because they were worn beyond there mechanical limits

Where can i buy that blower

I think the videographer has a fetish w brand names. has a blower but still no head studs. Go figure. I also wouldn't have started that engine on a simple engine stand. I think he knew it could've flipped over which is why he never gave it much throttle lol

never hear a blower idle like that

frank289100 knows fuck all lol but i am interested to see how you go with the cast pistons in a blown engine but no iv read 6 pounds is bugger all in a blower not meaning to sounds like an ass but running 6 pounds in a 6 71 is kinda not using it to its potential.

Sounds like a very bad rod knock

How much does blowers cost

sounded stock...i only seen it hit 4lbs of boost

Would like to know what fuel psi is it running?

Is tall boi.

Either this motor is running on 7 cylinders or has the worlds worst exhaust leak?? Maybe work out the bugs then video it on a proper stand too. That start up twist should have gotten his attention, but the builder just ignored it. Thats how motors end up on the deck!! Clearly, this vid was for a customer, that why all the “name brand parts labels were shown...

Too bad you are not in Ohio. I could help you.

Switch to fuel injection and be merry =D

ridiculous yo!!

I have a slightly modified 327sbc (9:1) that has a 671 blower on it and 2 holley 650 double pumpers (4777-3 now boost referenced) It will start and idle perfectly but as soon as you try to accelerate it backfires big time through the blow off plate. I am at a total loss whether it is a timing issue or a carb issue. My AF gauge says 13 at idle, if i slowly take it up in rpm's it drops to 11.2-11.5. I have the base timing at 14° and locked out at 30° by 2500rpm. Does this sound right to you?

Yikes

between 450 and 500 horse max. GM blocks destroy high doller high end motors! DART LITTLE M blocks are rated way past anything else! bet this bet dollars to donuts this motor goes home in a bucket! no blpwer surge also tells me this guy is taking good money after bad! he is looking for chumps!

Sounds terrible
