Me: watches junk you build with little work and lots of power. My stock 454 truck: (chuckles) I'm in danger.

Requesting a "Cam, Springs, Boost." shirt to support the channel. Heck I might buy two.

Im glad you put stock heads back on!.. 👍

I wish I could double like the videos, this man is making the quarantine tolerable

This engine would be reliable and a blast on the street at this power level. 👍🏻

The torque is crazy on this combo, looks great

Would make a great low buck boat motor. Keeping the iron heads for marine applications is good, especially when running open loop cooling (less chance of galvanic reactions between dissimilar metals.) This open loop cooling also keep engine temps lower as you've got an infinite supply of cool water. Cooler heads = less chance of knock.

I wanna see him boost a TBI engine.

Woooooow your fulfilling everyone’s wish list lol

Thanks for the inspiration and knowledge.. you are cool

im always blown away by turbo bbcs

The more I watch your videos, the more I find everyone saying what is exactly on my mind. Thank you. 🤘🏻🤘🏻. I cannot wait to watch this channel grow.

Love it. Just what I’ve been looking for! Keep em coming!!!!!

I love this guy learn so much from His channel especially about power ranges and were power drops off on certain motors in a racer so those things are nice to know

Yee Haw 🤠 I loved this test! Thanks much Richard

@ 9psi it's a great low buck street mill.

Beautiful torque! Imagine that torque and hp in a pickup!

Great content and production Richard. Very cool. Please keep up the great work.

I'm building one right now good to see my hard work should pay off great job 👍 as always

Love it. I love to see the tests on the old school engines.

Always great tech information

Very helpful - giving me all sorts of ideas for the 454 in my squarebody

Thanks for the SBC turbo build that gave me a good reference on what to look for

Been waiting for this video thanks for taking the time to make great videos.

Excellent, big easy power from big blocks

Looks like I am late to the party. I have the gen 6 Mefi HP 502 for my Jet Boat. I was going to a huge 14/71 until today. I watched several of your Videos and now i think I have reconsidered , looks like a twin turbo set up may be in the future.

Excellent video !

Hey Richard, Have been telling alot of people about your channel. If the ask me anything that I know you have done a test on. I just tell them to go and watch your videos. Thanks for all the great and diverse content. Cheers.

This is great information. Because there’s also a junkyard gen 7 big block Chevy out there that’s bigger then the gen 6. And I’m sure the same simple cam and ring gap upgrades will apply.

Thanks again for all this valuable research

Awesome! I love these videos!

Thanks Richard!

Great content, very helpful and informative.

I live all your videos, so many options for 800hp when I build my classic truck

I would love to see this same test but using the AFR 265 heads to see how much torque you could squeeze down low for heavier car or pickup. Power where it counts on a driver! Great videos!!

Love the video’s keep up the good work

Please do a Gen7 8.1. I’m getting ready to rebuild my engine in my 2001 suburban and would like to see what can be squeezed out of a normally aspirated plant. The Raylar people have some really nice parts that are way too expensive for what you get. Cleaning the internals on the intake, long tubes, a streetable cam and a nice of set of Dart heads are what I’m kicking around right now. In turned form this pig makes 330HP and 400LBT at the tires. I’d like to see at least 100 more after the rebuild. Thanks for the great videos. Keep them coming.

Awesome, ring gaps, cam and boost

Now we really need to see the 8.1 litre boneyard motor against this motor. Even carb blow threw

Heads up-I know I watched and liked this video years ago and when it ended up in my feed and decided to watch it again, because why not 💁🏼‍♂️ I noticed thumbs up button was not lit up 🤨 it’s the second video of yours I’ve found that way, so remind folks to ensure the like button might have been reset.

great! more bbc stuff

Richard you do know you literally have the coolest job on this planet rite ? , get paid to hang out with the Dave and the two Steve's and pork chop and play with speed parts all day . I'm sure you've paid those dues over the years but its awesome to see a fellow engine addict this dedicated . That's cool man . Very cool

Well Mr Richard, thanks again. Back to the boneyard for a 96 BBC. got the stimulus check! Look out for a Krazy twin turbo iron head, didn't know what to do with my 05 KIA SORENTO SUV. Hate you lol! KEEP em coming Frog out.

I really wish I had discovered your channel before I ever started this hobby… I would have saved so much money that I blew on combinations that never worked

I'm hooked on this channel 😎

I have this same 454 in my truck. I think it would be really interesting to see what would happen if you guys put some bosch 210 e85 capable injectors that you can get for like $145 on ebay so its still low budget and throw those in the efi intake manifold and threw some boost at it and see what it would do since all of your boosted 454 videos have all been blow through carb.

That is awesome!! Stock big block with a cam and turbos.

Yes exactly what I wanted to see my 049 heads are getting boost should be awesome

I can't subscribe twice, I would if I could. Always great content 👍👍.

Definitely another classic but dont forget to do the ever abundant gen 1 sbc 350 twin turbo big bang chief, we gotta have it

Please include a price list on these budget builds. A idea of the cost determines if I'm going to watch the video or not. Money gets people's attention ! Thank you 👍

Impressive numbers!

Great video

Love cx racing stuff. I have a cx racing intercooler kit on my car and it has been through hell and back and is still solid! It sits low and I have ran it into parking blocks and bent in the bottom and bent the mount number, hit a coyote and still not a single leak and still works.

Sweet testing thx

Hope you guys are doing good out in Cali, stay safe

Hey Richard....YOU HAVE "CRAZIER" IDEAS THAN WHAT YOUVE ALREADY DONE?... Well i just shared this video with about 6 people i gotta see more. Ive learned more watching your vids than anywhere else

Very informative

Sir i appreciate the videos great info ..

Thanks Richard! I have a 462" BBC with around 10.5:1 and iron, closed chamber (100cc), oval port 427 heads that I spin to 7000 in a fairly light drag car. I've been trying to decide what the next step is with it and getting some peer pressure to put some AFR's or similar jewelry on it but the 50 - 70 hp gain for 5k investment doesn't seem worthwhile. This vid helped a lot

Thanks, very interseting

Love this!!!!!

I always "like" your videos. I would share them if I had any friends. Note that @ 5500 RPM, the turbos make ~ the same power as the Vortex except with 2-3# less boost.

👍 good video

Pretty awesome response in power considering stock heads.

Ohh hell yeah!!

8:44 tricked me. 😆

Hey Rich... Not sure where you want to be as in cubes... Eagle makes an cost conscious 3.766 stroke crank 4340 with a 4.5 bore... should kill some low-end with your 118 cam. should work well Srp makes deep cut flat tops w a 1.065 ch ... a Dart or 1/4 filled 502 block should be sturdy enough. Kinda expensive but love to see the out come. Thanks.

Keep the testing I pushed all the buttons

Discovered your channel about a week ago and I gotta say, love the channel and great job on covering as many combinations as possible. One thing I've always been wondering about is how these combinations that you've covered would run on 87 octane, power production, etc. I think it would be interesting to see how well you could make them run on gas that you can get anywhere and everywhere, for those who might want to run something crazy in a daily for instance.

Nice video

Nice test! Redeemed the big block in my opinion

Referring my brother about 3 days ago about his 355 pulled up your sbc videos for him

As ive said for years...big block is king

Speaking of heat in the Turbo's, Gale Banks just posted a video on Turbo insulation.

Dame, I need some work done on my 454 dually after this. Geezz!

If you stumble across a late 70s 440 rb or 400 b it would be real interesting to see them run with turbo boost

I love it

One spec i would like included in your data, particularly for carbed engines is hot cranking compression. I know its hard to get a definitive number but its important over here in Aus as our pump fuel is not as good as yours in octane and a 100+ degree summer and average fuel and slightly too high dynamic comp equals dead engine.

I need this in my RV

Good stuff thanks!

Thanks for filling my wish list. Very informative. I was thinking about diverting cylinder head money into a turbo/supercharger setup but now you have me thinking.

Would love to see short video clips of the dyno pulls.

Richard, if I like a video, I always give it a thumbs up. Ever since you've gotten your act together, I've "liked" *all* your vids. After all, the kind of hard data we are getting from your tests is almost invaluable, and we're getting it for free... I see as of now this vid has 1,300+ views, and 250 likes. This seems to be about par for the response to your postings from what I've seen before. And yeah, if I were you, I'd be a little disappointed too. Rightfully, those who are too thoughtless to invest the two seconds required to scroll down and click on the thumbs up icon, should be barred from the benefit of watching in the future. It's too bad there's no way of knowing precisely who those lazy, thoughtless, ingrate freeloaders are...

Ever run INCON turbos? Dave Inall was the man

Do this on a 8.1vortec! Idk u may already have and I missed the video. But think it would be a good say "Monster torque" test this 454 vs a 8.1. Around here there hard to find and expensive. Guess that's y most just build a ls or a BBC ,SBC's. Great video btw.

I would love to see the 5.0 HEAD test you were talking about.. 👍

Stock block I would say is the limiter . Same test with a studded 2 bolt main block.

That torque “curve” tho 🤤

I'd like to see some BB mopar stuff, like what cid to switch to max wedge ports on a street car.

These are great videos these guys think like we do love the bbchev junk on boost .could you do bang for the $$ buck boost/spray comparison !!??

You dropped so many videos I can’t even keep up. You need to change your name to Richard “the beast” holdener

This is great ive got one of these in my garage. I think a single s480 is in its future.

How to size turbos it will be a great information videos. I love your videos

Richard I've always to wanted see how much of a difference 180 degree headers make in the mid range torque

I would love to see you do this with the stock fi intake , modified as much as possible. I think many truck owners would be interested in what this engine will do tuned and boosted with the stock (or 411 swapped) computer to run the rest of the truck.

1 recommendation for these test since their budget related maybe talk about prices. I know u cant get exact bc of what deals u find and what areas people are from so prices vary. But just a general estimate would be cool too add. Say this 454 made 450 hp for less than 2500 bucks.

What intake were you using with the blow-thru setup for this combination?

One thing I would like to see is what kind of power it would make with the stock efi intake and the cam swap. Wonder if it would regain some of the lost low end torque.

Would love to see some ford big block testing (429/460)
