NASCAR Engine Pistons & Rods Evolution: Lake Speed's Vintage Ford C3 Gets Modern Technology!

dave.com/stapleton
In our previous videos with Lake Speed Sr and Jr you saw us load up an old engine he had sitting in his former Winston Cup race shop for almost 20 years for a rebuild! In THIS video we head to the CP Carrillo Factory and get the full details on the brand new custom pistons designed for this engine to make more power! They also pull out some parts to show us the evolution of NASCAR Rod and Piston technology from the early 90s until present day! The lowdown on the series is this: Lake has a 1993 Purex Thunderbird left over from his days as an owner driver that he briefly used in vintage racing in the early 2000s. He has not driven a stock car since then. We are going to refresh this period correct engine and Lake is going to get back in his old car at 74 years old!!

This engine was making way less power than Lake Sr even thought it did. When it’s done it’s gonna make WAY more than he raced the car with. We’re so pumped to see his reaction at 74 😂 Support the channel and check out stapletonautoworks.com

Well I would hope so. 9/9.5-1 compression did pretty well in my book. Throw some compression in and the C3 heads will shine!

@TheJagjr4450 Жыл бұрын

Small end of the rod, pin, piston and rings are reciprocating weight the reduction of which IS MORE CRITICAL than rotating weight. Reciprocating weight must be accelerated from a dead stop TWICE every rotation. Cut 5 grams off of each reciprocating assembly for a total of 40 grams and you will have better results than removing 50 pounds from the car weight.

@danielwilson6665 Жыл бұрын

@@TheJagjr4450 … good point. 5 grams isn’t very much under normal circumstances but when taking into consideration the mean piston speed velocity along with the forces involved during the starting/stopping cycles, the dynamics are HUGE !!! Automotive engineering technology and metallurgy suddenly become very important, but that’s just a small portion of the big picture, indeed 🏁

The advancement in technology is a game changer in engine building. Back in the 80’s and early 90’s it took a lot of time and money to get to the horsepower numbers that you can get now and at a fraction of the cost. Plus the availability of parts now at the touch of your fingertips is incredible. I hate to be that old guy but, the younger generation getting into motorsports is almost spoiled.

Lake, I honestly believe that if it was more fun, they would make it ILLEGAL 😵‍💫. Or perhaps just treat it like a Cleveland during its reign of domination in the early years, with its canted valve advantage and restrict, penalize, ban or castrate it right out of competition all because of the way it would convert the high velocity intake charge into horsepower. No smoke and mirrors….just a touch of C3 magic 🏁🏆. Let the good times roll, my friends 👌.

Cp Carrillo is by far the best piston and rod company. At least on the quad racing side lol. I’ve been racing quads for 35 years. Every engine I build gets this combination and never once have I had a failure using CP products. I installed a set of CP pistons and rods in my 93 Saleen mustang about 6-7 years ago. Original 302 block pretty rowdy cam stroked to a 347 and cp pistons and rods. 12k miles later she’s still is running super strong with zero complaints.

Thanks for showing the things behind the making and evolution of a small part of racing engines. Actually the evolution goes all the way back to mid 1900s here in USA but even further in Europe. For the kids out there , these parts are not cheap, and tho they talk lasting a long time, other than long races, most race engines run only a few total minutes a year at full throttle. Did you catch the man say they use to have to change engines in their car 3or 4 times a weekend. It’s great to be able to extend the life of the parts , simply amazing .

@@arkhsm …That’s an excellent point mate. But I don’t understand why it’s hardly ever mentioned here in the States. When the big sanctioning body mandated the cookie cutter approach to US Pro Stock competition, my formerly rabid enthusiasm level for PS crashed and burned so I found something more interesting to occupy my time. The choices are endless because EVERYTHING IS MORE EXCITING THAN THE CURRENT LEVEL OF PS. The good news is that it won’t sink any lower. It’s at rock bottom now so an upward swing seems within the realm of positive Changes. If lightning has a chance of striking twice, a 16 car qualified field of excellence just might have a chance for a second coming. Fortunately I shot several thousand feet of Hi-8 film with audio during the seventies and eighties so I can flashback to the pinnacle of Pro Stock greatness as needed 🏁. If I understand the current generation of Aussie Pro Stock , I believe there’s several ALL FORD Competitors that frequently kick ass with 400 inches of Cleveland style, canted valve superiority. If this is true, then no wonder there’s very little coverage of Aussie PS In the States. The biased media has a weird hatred for Fords. Oh well…. And the beat goes on…..✌🏻
