Keith Dorton and Automotive Specialists is one of the most innovative engine builders on the planet. To gain an edge land speed racing at the Bonneville Salt Flats he's come up with an innovative V6 engine based on a NASCAR Chevrolet SB2 race engine. Here, he shows us all the tricks on how he made it work.

Ok they are nice numbers and its a cool idea, but i'm a bit confused when he says he couldnt get the valve area out of an existing v8 and that exhisting v6's vibrate more than this thing. Also whats this about compression? You would think an engine builder would be able to have exactly whatever compression he wants out of any platform Methinks he just decided a nascar engine already has everything done to it and was the easiest option for this application just to blank off two cylinders. Which is a cool idea but he doesnt have to bullshit about it lol.

@@m.b.82 So the devil's in the details. You need valve reliefs to not compromise cam timing and NASCAR heads have about the smallest practical combustion chamber in the head for something that flows. So that's about what you can get without going to a clean sheet of paper purpose built 4 valve per cylinder sorta thing.

@jonkeau5155 3 жыл бұрын

M. B. The comment about vibrations of existing v6’s has to do with the degrees of separation between ignition of each cylinder in a v8 vs a v6 (a v8 has a cylinder firing every 45 degrees instead of every 60 degrees), even though they eliminated two cylinders they kept the same crank spacing of a v8 and used counterweights to balance the shaft. Through the unique setup they got the smooth running of a v8 which is nicer on other drivetrain components and the benefits of extra stroke of the v6 while staying within the max displacement rules for the class they are running. They chose the nascar engine because it’s highly developed and can get great power at high rpm reliably which saves them enough time and money on development. Ironically the fact that they didn’t change the firing order and crankshaft spacing is also why it sounds a bit like a Harley motor and a V8 got mashed together!

No he isn't. This build, makes no sense. His entire reasoning is flawed by the fact that, since the late 1980, there are engines that have extremely short stroke and upwards of 13 to 1 compression. I mean road going bikes combine sub 50mm strokes and up to 14.5 to 1 compression. (Yes I know Harleys do not but I'm referring to bikes actual modern engines not 1930s fossils)

I remember my first year going to Speed Week, someone was running a streamliner with a blown Hemi in it, except 1 whole bank of cylinders was missing, and they were running it as a 4 cylinder. 2 friends of mine run a coupe with a Model A flathead in it that has a DOHC conversion he built in his garage, casting and everything.

Not to mention the 1/2" thick wall pushrods (I know pushrod weight is supposedly inconsequential but it has to add SOME weight/rpm loss to the valvetrain) Amazing stuff.

I cut my eye teeth building SBC; you can gauge my thoughts about this video by how many times I said, "Jesus Christ!", while watching. The count? I lost track, (didn't want to take my shoes off! LOL) I was fortunate enough to have a drag racing mentor when I was in my teens. He'd built a national record holding car in the early '60's. The first thing he taught me was block and head prep, pre porting & blueprinting. I looked at this sweet SB, knowing just how many hours it takes to make one look like that. Had to laugh, though, the builder didn't want to give up the cam specs, but I do believe you gave enough info talking about the valve train, a guy could back calc the lift, if not the duration.... ooops... LOL Very impressive V-6, starting with a very impressive V8. Never paid much attention to Nascar, but I will spend some time learning about these SB2's, after watching this.

It would be reasonable to believe it might gain a little bit of performance with a proper 3:1 merge collector. Maybe not enough to really matter but it could possibly make a noticeable difference too. For being sorted out on the dyno that just struck me as odd. I understand the dyno headers aspect. I worked for one of the most winning and well respected NHRA Comp & Super Comp engine builders in the business. The amount of dyno headers they had was sight to see. And the smallest things were taken in consideration for max dyno performance. Again the V8 header on a V6 being strange to me.

@@mytmousemalibu . Good point. Yeah you would think having that dead hole in the collector would upset the scavenging of the headers but I have yet to see the engine in the car. So as you would know there are alot off other tests that you can do on the dyno before you even look at the headers and exhaust. But we may never know they could of built a trick set of headers with only the six pipes and the v8 set were better. Cool build though.

I have been through many Hendrick sb2 that he has bought off them. We would get those and depending on the history we just did rings and bearings. A basic freshening up and then dyno them. That’s my favorite part. Feeling the concrete vibrating under your feet. The dyno cell has 2 Freightliner mufflers on it since the shop is in the city limits. My house is 2.5 miles away and I can hear the dyno run. Listening from my house I can usually tell if it’s good out of the box or it’s giving trouble. If I’m not busy I’ll call him up and ask if he needs a hand bc it sounds like it’s being a hand full. It’s always fun to go hang out and mess with those engines.

@Dave Micolichek , It was a bit of Banter. Like I think your comment about the caps lock (yelling) was intended to be. So don't take things so seriously Man. No need to get all bent out of shape about it. There are other things going on that are more important. It was a Joke and you got butthurt. Take it easy.

Wanna make power out of a 4 banger You build a turbo honda engine.. Theres lots pushing over 700hp with only 1 turbo...

Toyota, Honda, Nissan, and even ford have decent four bangers. If you are looking for a 450hp plus build id vote go with a k series honda.

Love this story. I' watching a Jeremy Hacking run a V6 Syclone 1/4 mile at 185 mph and 7.59 sec. single turbo. I have always had a thing for 6 cylinder engines. NASCAR technology would be so amazing to learn. I once saw 1960's GM V6 Big Block it was made for the half ton. Its Just awesome what is Possible.
