Not only is this awesome that you're showing us all the technical nuances to put this motor together. But the chance that actually own one of your motors would be incredible.

First off, who else releases multiple videos on new builds literally minutes AFTER winning undoubtedly the hardest HRDW22 you and Tom just finished!! Only you brother, only you!!!! Congratulations on the win Steve, you boy's DEFINITELY earned this one!!!! Can't wait to check out the new project, but if it's from SME, you can't go wrong!!!!

Congratulations on winning Drag Week. It's a testament to both your knowledge and your character with supporting Tom throughout the entire event. Swapping pistons, no sleep, swapping injectors, no sleep, dealing with a self-ejecting trailer, no sleep, and of course if that wasn't enough, having to swap a throttle cable. This comes as a complete surprise and is a testament to how generous you are. We're here to get an understanding on where engines are today and the depth of knowledge you're willing to share is nothing short of both admirable and remarkable. Giving away a complete engine is unheard of and speaks volumes to the kind of man you are. Some of us follow you for entertainment while others follow to get a better understanding of how to build an engine correctly and you deliver on all counts. Lastly, thank you, God Bless, and good luck to whomever wins this engine. Cheers!

Bought my merch for a chance to win the giveaway motor. Sure would go well with my 70 chevelle that's been sitting stagnant for over 30 years.

That 555 is very similar to my 557 build that I built and installed in my 1978 Chevy BIG10 pickup that I ordered new with a 454. I used a Dart block 4.500” bore with an Eagle 4.375” stroke crank, Edelbrock square port heads, Edelbrock Air gap dual plane manifold with a 850 Holley (that I bought new in 78). I also used a solid roller cam but somewhat conservative because I use the truck to pull my 26’ enclosed with my dragster. I wish I would have taken the time to dyno the motor because it is a torque monster. I still have the original T-400 transmission that I beefed up years ago and 3.73 gear that I ordered it with. I ran it a few times a the track and ran high 11’s. Its pretty heavy to me for a short bed and when I weighed it with cast iron heads it was almost 5,000 lbs with me in it and I’m about 215 lbs. funny thing is that the gas didn’t seem to change hardly any, still 9 to 10 mpg.

One of the best parts of this channel is seeing the growth of the next generation. Seeing the bond between Father and Son doing something you both love is something special.. My father has turned wrenches his entire life. Growing up that was what we did together . Sadly we drifted apart. So seeing you guys doing this is awesome. The KZfaq aside Family is everything.

Steve is a hard working smart craftsman.... but above all he is VERY honest.... I wish I could afford his engines.

It must be so hard talking/explaining and doing all at once Steve. I learn something new every time I watch a video of yours. Thank you

Makes me wish i still had my old 66 Impala, or my 77 malibu

I really like that eccentric adjuster!

I’m from oz, still will grab a shirt. Awesome give away. Good luck everyone.

I love your channel! I might have missed it, I did not see the thrust alignment prior to torquing #5 main.

I will say definitely love seeing the father and son combo definitely the highlight of the video like seeing when successful businesses keep things in the family. And talk about the best prize to win on KZfaq I’ve seen yet!

Wow....all i can say Steve. Dream to have one of your engine one day. Admire your commitment to your craft.

Love the freedom motor and the in depth tech of everything in it

Hey Steve, Congratulations to you and Tom for winning Drag Week, awesome win. I love the new freedom series you started. 🇺🇲

A chance to win a motor from My favorite engine builder wow I'm super excited

Watching this, seeing how cool and technical this all is, just puts into perspective how difficult it is as well. Going to a professional like Steve with all his years of experience really seems like the best option. I can't imagine trying to do this yourself without having someone like Steve teach you every step of the way. What a wonderful trade with such exceptional skill and precision

Thanks for sharing

Such a smart man. I'd love to work for you just to learn. And I'm 46 years old.. been a car truck guy since birth. You do more cams a week than I've probably done my entire life.

We are truly watching a thing of beauty being born! Can't wait to see the finished article on the dyno singing and producing lots of power! 😊👍

Just got me 6 entries and a cool t-shirt!

I don't know who is more excited about this giveaway, you or me. Lol. I'm really am enjoying this build series.

Love to see you are having fun with your Son!! He's your awesome twin!! He has highly earned to be your right hand man!! And he's there to keep the SM alive for decades to come!

Steve Tech coming in clutch with another detailed walk through of something that has been somewhat of a mystery to me. You explain things in a way that is easily understood and I feel like I could replicate myself. Thanks Steve 10/10

That is a fast working young man you have there !

The work u do is incredible and those engines u build I'm speechless best in the game in my opinion

Yeah, more power to you Steve. I remember you were going to have a subscription format but in the end, have given the knowledge to the people. Thanks.

I’m all in! This is awesome Steve!

That's why I buy merchandise!

Great video & look forward to the rest of the series !

Love these build vids from somewhat mild to wild there both very interesting keep them coming

Big Blocks make my world rock and so do you two! Love the content, the hard work and dedication that’s put into these videos. Keep on keepin on!

I love it I have an old-school carbureted 383 in a S 10 pick up

This is going to be a really interesting series. Thank you.

Awesome video steve! Keep up the great work! Like everyone I would love to drag with one of your engines someday!

Love this format of video. No one does this anywhere that I know of. I know any car guy would love seeing these informational videos. Even if I already know what your teaching its still interesting. Keep it up man. You hit the nail on the head here

Probably going to be watching this anther 20 times... this has been the best video I've seen yet on how to degree a cam.

Very relaxing to watch thank you.

Always wonderfully explained and shown

Thanks for taking the time to show this, always interesting to see different interpretations to get to the same end product. Also was fun watching someone else be confused as to which way to go with the cam adjustment. Congrats on the Drag Week victory and I'm sure sleeping all night in your own bed will feel great. This would be a great engine for my 1962 Bel Air wagon, hint, hint ...🙂

this was a great video! I enjoyed the time lapse and all the measuring. that is a slick timing set 👌🏻 🤘🏻🇺🇲

Finally somebody shows the correct way to set TDC on a degree wheel. Thank you!

oh my god the best prize in the whole world a Steve Morris engine

Man what a wild piece that motor is, I would love to put that in my OBS Chevy. Also Congratulations on the win at dragweek🎉

so awesome..if I don't win it, I'm building it!!!

This a great video, your the first one that doesn't miss any steps showing how to degree a camshaft!

This average guy just made an order on something I’ve always wanted anyway. Thanks for putting this giveaway together for us Steve, you’re going to make some lucky fan cry!

This is an awesome series you're doing; Plus giving away this engine! I thank you for everything. PS congratulations on winning Drag week 5 times now- Wow no small feat by any means!

This is my new favorite channel man love it

Steve you should do a series on tools you like and how to use them.

That's awesome Steve. Thanks for the cam degree tutorial. Most people don't get into this part of an engine build. Pretty simple procedure not as intimidating as it sounds. I'll definitely be entering the give away. Would be a nice engine for the 1967 nova I'm going to build. Great video once again!

Another great build series and some more goods tech killing it

That would be the perfect engine for my 62 Bel Air 4 door! Grandpops car would be a runner then.

I love it I have an old-school carbureted 383 in a S10

really enjoy all of your videos :) keep it up

I just love "we just want to make it durable and dependable..." I really appreciate this philosophy.

0.066" quench huh? Sure that's durable. The large displacement will be torquey enough for "anything you wanna put it in". You crack me up Steve.

Steve, dont get hung up on those that dont understand. I have built motors for twenty years( not to your caliber) and I appreciate you showing technical insite and the dyno end of things. Thanks for everything from a to z. Your videos are awesome.

Fingers crossed. 4 shirts. Key chain. Hoodies. And a hat. If I win I’ll be able to put the boat back together before you get pistons for the other engine lol.

Great video thanks for sharing your knowledge with the public.

There's just something about engine building that is so satisfying to watch

Good job kyle the engine is badass

Thank you Steve you've been a great inspiration to me on building motors and going fast your wagon I love it keep up the good works sir good works sir and sooner or later I'll get one of your motors thank you

Definitely going to be one hell of an engine, 15 th thinner than a match book nice 👍

That monster would by sweet in my old 73 vette.

Great information ! Thanks.

I would definitely have you build the engine! Appreciate the meticulous details.

Awesome excellent job, all the best to yous and your loved ones

Awesome engine build. Let’s see Kyle do a SML build and hit the next drag n drive in his own ride. 🏎

Looks like a nice engine. Nice to see you both working together and even making little bloopers now end then. Keeping it real.

Great tips! Love the content.

Saving up for my sticker. :p Grats on the win!

Nice that is going to be a sweet engine 👍

Great content thanks for sharing

Great tech video, thanks for posting! Of note, my numbers have always been off using that style of cam checker tool. It seems as though the follower doesn't precisely "follow" the lobe and my numbers are always off when verifying cam specs. I now use a solid lifter, pushrod, and a dial indictor on a magnetic fixture to measure.

This is awesome.

Very informational.

this is going to be a beast

I would upgrade the engine in my 1994 v6 camaro

Love your stuff

Yes I love this. I knew this would be a great giveaway

I know I will get some flack for saying this, that engine would be a killer one for my old 1977 dodge w200 4x4. It's a retired army truck a m882.

93' FORD TEMPO my 96hp engine needs an upgrade BROTHERRRRRR

I was not expecting this video to have this much content!! Thanks for surprising me!! Steve, I had a friend that went to his friend builder and they ASSUMED since new the specs were ok checking one rod! It blew up. 3K later fixed and that was a discount? This is a 1,300hp NOS engine. I'd be mad! No assumes on 1,000+ engines!! And now he has parts grinded down to spec below fat standard. I expect my engines blue printed at this point. Steve please explain what a blue printed engine is. It's an exact to book spec engine. :) Funny how balanced and blue printed engine was a big deal forever Explain what that means. I know what it means and is but think it would be nice to share to others what it actually is.

Thanks man

WOOHOO, look who got some sleep ! ! ! ! lol Congrats Steve and co. .. and that guy Tom too . ;)

Steve wish you made a 575hp version, 800 hp is pretty crazy.

Awesome👍

Awesome prize 👍

Steve your incredible… I just want to take the place of your shadow for bout a year

I would love Steve to tell us how he ultimately ended up designing and engineering his own engines.

Intense!! Hope you've gotten some sleep since race week!!

I've (not built) but assembled many a motor in my days, and have never ever never degreed a camshaft in! And haven't had any problems as far as that goes. Now I have a friend who does it all the time, and everytime that I've been to his shop while he's doing said degreeing, have never actually seen him adjust a cam, basically just checking to make sure the factory ground the cam correctly. I pretty much always use comp cams and just install them for to dot and off they go! Tire burning for years to come!

Watching each and every one of these videos needs to know what my new engines all about

Awesome

True Professionalism, a dying condition today. I love watching pros.

Damn..! I live in New Zealand.....would friken love that motor for my 68 Camaro.....sheeeeesh...!

Wait a minute. Aren't you at a drag strip today? 👍
