except traction issues and weak drive line parts.

@@SweatyFatGuy but it does give you the motivation to upgrade!

@@Ribbityibzki yes it does. Of course I would feel bad needing a turbo to make 600hp. I'm already sorting the traction thing NA

@@dj4monie My engines break 4 speeds and U joints easily. 500ftlbs from idle to 5500 tends to do that. The only transmissions under $2500 that hold up to them are automatics. My $300 rebuild on a Th400 lasts longer than a $2000 4 speed, like decades vs a handful of passes. Its a different world when you aren't running a low torque weak suck chevy... or a small Ford, mopar, etc. :) I suppose if you had a supercharger you'd have an idea of what driving one of my daily drivers is like. Getting an auto to hook and live is much easier and less expensive than a manual, when you have power. With a tiny engine, yeah the manual is gonna feel faster.

My grandma drank Boost and it also worked for her

Quite a few of these stories are from years ago. Throwing together a quick over view isn't hard or take long. Stock cam shootout was like 7 years ago. But we all enjoy the videos none the less.

if only it was like that

Richard does not sleep.....it's obvious😝

Bad Example Garage, for real!!! These dyno videos have blown my mind! I mean, I knew it was possible to make those numbers, I just had no idea how “easily” you could do it!

how do they call that a torque cam when all it did was increase power over 5000 rpm?

turbo cams work

that's a start

But before you start, get yourself about a 4 or 5 bar map sensor! I wanna see some record-setting BOOST!!!

I would be extremely interested in this.

For an actual supercharger, more exhaust duration/lift/valve size capability in general usually helps out.

he can do these vids forever once he branches out and starts doing something other than ls engines. yes i know he did 1 ford vs mopar shootout.

he is doing other stuff

i have turbo sbc

Back to back Dyno runs with stage 1, stage 2 truck cams vs Stage 1, Stage 2 turbo cams... 4.8 or 5.3 because that's most common... Single turbo then small twins

I think he has tests with N/A motors and different Cams on his channel. I believe he also did a all cams are turbo cams video. Basically all you gotta do is look at a cam you are interested in, see the shape of the graph they show for that application, and then slide it up based on boost pressure. The shape is unchanged when boost is added... unless the set up is REALLY slow to come on boost :)

I've runs lots of turbo specific cams-they work with turbos but we already know that

have you watched @richard holdeners turbo cam video? every cam is a turbo cam

Yes every cam is a boost cam, and will work well overall. But running an actual boost cam vs. these “boost cams” would highlight what a true boost cam does.

I stand by DEEZ NUTS

@@richardholdener1727 LOL!

always

that works-just don't over think it

its not a boost level-its a ring heat level-many factors change it

I have lots of turbo cams cuz EVERY cam is a turbo cam

Richard you know what. Your 100% right. Lmao

I don't know if Brian Tooley is a sponsor (not that it worries me) but I really like the look of this cam. Looks like a good all rounder. www.briantooleyracing.com/btr-turbo-stage-ii-cam.html

no channel sponsors yet-But I'm hopeful

@@richardholdener1727 well let him know people are looking because of your channel... I had never even head of him before your channel, and looking at the specs (and mostly your dyno figures) the stage 2 or stage 3 might make an ideal cam for a LS2 build, a guy I know needs built. I was originally thinking about Comp Cams or Crane (because I'm old) but your channel has prompted me to look at his website. I don't think I am the only one. Be nice if they ponied up a few free cams to say thanks. Your channel has also inspired me to try a couple of eBay 3582's turbos on it. Still trying to work out if I will port the heads, or if we just go for something aftermarket. Been a few decades since I last had an air grinder fired up in anger, be nice to know if I still have the touch. My eyesight isn't what it once was, but the LS heads seem a whole lot better than SBC heads out of the box. He also has a 383 stroker with a 6-71 on it which needs sorting out. His current engine builder put his old roller cam and lifters into a new Dart block, and it smashed the roller lifters to pieces in no time flat. When he gets that back he might be up for a new cam in that (depending on what the engine builder does).

@@hendo337 I was looking at the GT45s that Richard has been using. Ideally somewhere around GT40 would be nice, but the only ones I see on eBay are around that $3,000 not cheap ones. I was a bit concerned in going too far. Decades ago I had it drummed into me that you are better off with smaller than bigger. Be interesting to see a comparison test between the two. Cheap twin GT35's versus cheap twin GT45's. Richard you up for a test?

@@hendo337 I'm talking twin not single, are you talking about twin? Assuming not because Richard's test showed twin 45's had real low back pressure on a big block.

1magnit U bring up a good point. I also would like to see this. Possible new episode? 🤔

I'm glad I'm not the only one that thinks like that. The bigger ring gap allows more leakage, escape of end gasses so they can't detonate.

it all ends up in the sump.....HCs

ring gap shows very little power change until it gets excessive-I ran .035 in some stuff and say no change

@@hendo337 wtf LQ9 make great power with a turbo.

I just bought one for a 5.3 I’m putting in my Yukon,I can’t wait to test it out

@@Stevehevessy let me know what you think. Been wanting to get one too

Amen to that. How much of our time do we spend driving at that RPM?

I start my dyno pulls at 1500 rpms on the truck tuning.

I'll se if a map exists. Airflow (in lbs/min) x 10=hp, PR required is a function of na hp

it does not change the reflected waves, that is what creates the low-speed torque

@@richardholdener1727 I should have prefaced my comment with I Guess: "I think" is my way of saying I'm guessing... Looking at the N/A curves (torque and power) with the standard truck manifold, and then looking at the turbo curves, they seem to be somewhat similar (albeit miles apart in power and torque) but the basic shape is similar. Which lead me to conclude that down low the difference is in the aftermarket manifold without boost (very low air speed), rather than cam. The concave curve between 3500 and 4700 seems to disappear once boost is added, which further led me to conclude that boost started to create additional air flow down low, to allow the manifold to fill the larger runners (comparable to the standard truck manifold) and start to make the manifold more efficient producing more power. But now I think about it, that is completely baseless since if it is getting boost down there, it is going to create more power anyway... But it is interesting how it seemed to fill in that dip. Can you elaborate on reflected waves? I have not heard of that term before as a creator of low speed torque. Are you talking about some kind of manifold pulsing?

can't really do lag on engine dyno

the gt-45 on the bbc would be a good match-but you don't need full boost at 2000 rpm
