Thanks for doing a SBC. i'm so sick of the LS stuff. LS and sticking a Coal Rolling Diesel in a car etc. have been way over done. This week on "i have no clue garage" were going to put a 12 Valve Cummins in a Vega and tune in next week were going to stuff an LS in a Shriners Go Cart. What wrong with a SBC ? not a darned thing.

1022hp at 7500rpm on 15lbs and pump gas. Very impressive. That’s a stout piece.

Good old Chevy starter alignment grind... haven't heard that for a while!

Really nice power. That’s got to be one of the best pulley setups I’ve seen. Both the crank and the blower pulleys have more than 180 degrees of belt wrap, and the tensioner holds the long sections in check really well.

Would love to see a Steve tech on blow thru carb vs blow thru efi!

The welds on those covers looks amazing

Love the old school stuff. Thank you. TBI = Don't even ask us. Brutal.

Would fit like a glove in my 56 Chevy truck! Good job! Cheers from TX.

Love these videos showing the graphs and how it all works ,

Amazing that the AF is consistent throughout the rev range, good carb tuning! Thanks

looking nice Steve M thanks for all the go fast and looks cool

Nice oil pressure up top. I saw almost 120 there, a perfect little setup. You da man

I'm always amazed when you step up and do a Gen 1 SBC Steve because I know that you know they are still an incredibly versatile combo when the right attention is applied correctly as you have proven time again 372 inches of ass kicking 1150 HP and almost 8oo LBs of grunt at 6500 in a light drag car combo would still be a highly capable combo ,, Very Nice piece Steve.. Maybe Santa will bring me one so I can unload my 496 ...

Awesome vid! Keep up the good work Steve!🇺🇸🤘

love it old school 1000+ on pump gas.....I bet a bunch of the LS crowd thinks this is FAKE NEWS!

sounds like it's got nice throttle response. great old school package.

Wow! You build awesome engines steve. Love the old school stuff with todsys tech incorporated into it. I just subscribed to your channel. Good stuff,and very impressive figures right there. Reliable grunt.

Love what Steve has done .Awsome

That's a solid piece of hardware, very nice !

Steve, you just made my day!

You guys are freaking mad scientists for sure!!! Insane what kind of work you do with the same shit as everyone else...

I would prefer this over an ls without even thinking about it!!

Greetings from the land down under! 🇦🇺 Awesome result there for a modest street combo.

Thats some good power for a small block !!!!!! Steve builds good engines

Nice setup…that looks like a good choice for a “drag and drive” banger!

Love seeing a good old small block make power. 👍🏻

Nice thing about the blow through carb with blower is that it cools the air/fuel charge, so an intercooler is not required vs an EFI set-up.

Thanks for the video Steve cool motor setup hey bud have a great memorial weekend later

I could find a good home for this, smack dab in the middle of my square body front fenders. Nice build Steve, nice to see a small block for a change

Hay Steve ,love your vids !!Paul from Canada

Good ol classic solid engine. Chevy engines are the best. That's why everyone puts them in everything

You speced a cam for me you are so rite it's been super reliable and the motor makes grate power turnning 8000+ with a D1x procharger..thanks steve

I admit I know nothing about engines but I spend all day literally looking at these kinds of videos I give my upmost respect to the fellas in the comments that know their stuff it probably seems second nature to you guys but is like arithmetic to me 🤣

All my eyes look at are the quality of the tig work on the valve covers

Awesome job brother

That would fit perfectly in my original 1970 C-10 short bed

nice set up Steve

Great and easy little street car application that you can stop into any gas station to keep rollin' on down the road without the complications of all that electronic & computer controlled gizmos. This thing breaks down on the side of the road, you could still get it home with a hand full of tools from the "jockey-box".

Great to see that the SBC has not been kicked to the curb. Very impressive.

Beautiful torque line.

It’s not what you build! It how you build them! Thanks Steve

Hell yeah Steve love your videos old school with new school tech are you hiring I love this shit I would enjoy working for you and learning your knowledge working for you would be like a little kid working in candy store

Great job!!!! Love it!!!

Will alwalys Love 350 SBC's. Superb build.

Great video, I can't tell you how happy I am to find someone who works with smallblocks. Paxton eh? Lol

400 block with a 350 crank... basicly destroked .. so it has steam holes drilled in head for siamese cylinders.... fun fun.. simple and effective... looks internally balanced.. .. good stuff..

Nice work..Mr Morris...from Wyoming USA 🔫🤠🇺🇸p.s stay safe

I need this in my life.

💪💪💪💪💪 Man it look like the belt about rubbed together on the hi rpms!!

Absolutely incredible!

Thats my dream engine right there, Steve. Verbatim. Been dreaming of a procharged sbc built exactly like this for my chevelle. Wouldn't be hard to coax me into selling a kidney for it. What an amazing piece. Turns out my sbc current combo with 14-1s isn't the friendliest on the street. Especially at 20$ a gallon for Q16 🤷‍♂️ Still fun though lol

Looking forward to seeing that Steve Tech you suggested.

Very impressive power from a SBC at only 15 psi!

Thanks again ! Very informative.

Great video Steve. Funny that I haven't heard many positive reviews on the Sniper.

Nice work.

Awesome as always

Sweet it's nice to be able to do this old school and simple instead of seeing a bunch of these franken motors with dual turbochargers and intercoolers everywhere.

Great content thanks for sharing

Love me some Gen 1 GOODNESS!

Awesome hp and tq #'s out of this gen 1 sbc

We run a 415 small block (dart based) with a blow through iRD carb. 88/90 turbo on e85. We’ve yet to turn a wrench at the track.controll is with a FT600.

morning steve love that setup simple cube monster for the street , parts list

alot forgotten over time but the gen1 sbc was always known for its excellent torque curve !

trying my weirdness not needing to pay for it, given a 471 blower, hours of sweating and retrying and retrying modifying a intake i set a blower down on a 302 ford, trying a few good old holey carbs and a couple diffrent cams I did succeed making a pretty sweet little block do not ask HP or such as i never had Dyno's ect, but it did take the little maverik i pushed it into down the strip at a pretty solid 10 second street car. that was way way back in later 1970's and was all built in a garage on a farm. it did make a fun little car to play with and i was happy with it.

Great job!

It's like you're reading my browser history. I've been looking at SBC EFI, with a Procharger F1A94 - 383 stroker builds

I would love to have one of these motors in my 1973 Camaro !

My SB Mopar 418 stroker with out of the box 190 runner TF heads made 1065hp running out of fuel at only 6000rpm with a 750 e85 blow through and a F1A at only 12 pounds of boost. Old school can still make good numbers.

Great video thanks. Very informative. Would like to see another video on ignition timing/advance versus compression ratios using pump and race gas. Thanks! 👍🏻

My dad and I shifted our 355cid @ 85-8600 now we have a 427cid SBC and we shift that at close to the same maybe a little lower

Like I told da man...when me and power ball hook up......"I know where i'm going for my blown small block".

Very nice engine. I still run sbc in both of my race cars and im still on nitrous hopefully in the next year or 2 ill make the change to turbo

I need one of these for my 1980 gmc truck, 😆

Solid roller for life, check it like twice a season

I think is even an advantage over some twin turbos with all of the stuff to run them plus a big charge cooler

@2:37 , I got a chevy 302 I built 140 1st gen offroad cam solid flat tappet turns 9K+ all day doesn't care , I have built many small blocks with flat tappet solid cams that turn high rpms all day , its not the cam its the valvetrain

That’s a nice build

Very nice!

love the gen1 sbc sound, IMO better then the LS. especially the music they make when they are stroked out and built to the Hill! BAD ASS! glad to see its not forgotten by the big guys.. (curious about dyno sheet, its still rocking the 3.5inch stroke in the dyno settings? id wager its irrelevant to the results- )

Sweet ................... Everyone go racing

awesome looking for all those motor heads drawn in to chasing there tail, Old school iron horse Small blocks are great, I always favored them, but nothing beats a big block when it comes to brut force power. I 'm an old man now, I sit on the side lines. My advise, Keep it simple, don't waste your money, keep to the basic's, way more dependable. keep it close to turn key and you will enjoy it for years,

I run a small block chevy with a blow through carb I'm making 1400 at the wheels I love that it's not a LS

I run a P1 on a 355 and its great.

Old school Small block is good as long as the valve train and heads are top of the line stuff

Wow all muscles,i have chevy 350 prochager i put a intercooler wow good power

Good morning here fron mexico

I like old-school small blocks, I actually think LS engines are ugly as shit , however with that said I understand that the LS in newer technology I get it ! One thing I like about the LS is that the main caps are skirted by the engine block !

Outstanding

Love your work man I have a Polaris out law 500 and I want to start competing in iron Man races would you be to take the engine and make it out of billet block and bullit Prof any that you think would brake I would like to double the output it's two wheel drive with irs so it a little on the heavy side but floats through the trails I haven't found anyone that has impressed me like you do, your work is what America used to stand for taking in what you do I hope we get to work together .

Sure came a long way since I was a kid rebuilding motors

That's unbelievable. Blow through and no intercooler. Perfect for my station wagon.

I honesty couldn't believe thoes numbers when i first saw them!!! Gets me more excited for my 383 but i wont be making anywhere near that power.

Sweet Small Block,,

Steve at 1:15 you speak about carbs making slightly more outright power than efi and that you may make a a teve tech video about it, if you could do that when you have the time that would be pretty sweet

Man I’m so tired of the LS and i as well am build a 350 sbc I have both a 74 and 73 nova the 73 is an ss drag fully cage 74 Resto with 600 hp but man this motivates me more that the 350s are monsters

The sbc can be done on a budget these days. Guys are constantly swapping ls in these days. I picked up a dart block, molnar crank and some other goodies for a grand not long ago. The kid pulled it for a stock 6l ls and I actually felt bad for the guy. But he insisted he was happy to get rid of the old junk 😆

Quite impressive actually amazing you know your shit bro no doubt wow if someone had told me that a sbc would make them numbers say even 10 yrs ago I would have scoffed and said uh huh not and stay together long but I think you've hit the perfect. Combo great job now can you send me that package ? I treat it nice and feed it well and take care of it probably lol good. Job bruh

Smooth motor.

that is so BAD ASS !!!...can we have a microphone inside the dyno to hear the engine? those old school motors hadda much better sound than the LS/LT.......
