A good friend of mine had a 28ft Hallet boat that was built in the late 80s. It was a 496 with twin 76mm turbos, blown through twin carbs. Boat had a manual bodied TH400 that made it a trip. We would be right next to boats at 80 or so, and he would click into 3rd, and walk away. Pump gas,and probably an easy 900 hp that lasted 12 plus years. It was an absolute riot on the lake.
What a sweet ride! That boat looks like it's going to rip too! Bonus points for having a son interested and very knowledgeable in the same field as you. Always great content from your camp!
I love seeing Kyle shine in the light of the Ol'man, this kid is smart as heck. And, my missus was watching this vid over my shoulder, and she recons he is ''one good looking boy!'' ! 😆
I am a big fan of yours. I watch all your videos and your motto "you might learn something here." Well as it happens I lost a lifter in my car, a roller lifter, you know the ones that never break. Anyhow, I was watching the one with Cletus when he had that bad cam. I had to do exactly what you did. It wouldn't come up and it had a tie bar so I took an old valve cover gasket box cut it and may a little tray to catch it because it wouldn't cine up. I had to cut the tie bar because it wouldn't go up or down but after that it fell neatly into the little tray just like yours did. I do have to pull the par though because one of the roller retainer broke off but I have a leak that needs attention. my point is, it's not just a blanket statement, you really can learn something from watching your channel. Thanks my man!
Love seeing the high end stuff but it’s refreshing to see a stock block/ crank combo too. Would be amazing to see a stock block SBC street build (maybe single turbo and blow through carb) for us guys that want to duplicate something at home. Can hear it now.. Steve- ain’t nobody have time for that…. :)
Showing us multiple projects in one episode is awesome! One of your best crafted videos for sure. Kyle, yer coming on strong young man, and your presentation is getting top notch.
That Chevelle exhaust is slappin and blappin😅. Side issue it seems like the valve train is overtight and isnt closing the valves all the way, this is based on what im hearing and my experience,it definitely could be something else , but something doesnt sound right.
Nothing wrong with "old school" engines. Look at the engines of the late 60's and how much power they made and totally stock. I would take my 327 L79 to 6500 RPM day after day. The best Chevy street engine ever made IMHO.
The jet boats pump will stall out at 6500rpm because that's what the impellers are tuned for, so tuning the torque to max out as low as possible is the key, it's likened to tuning a car that has only one gear.
Steve i would love to visit your shop one day. Your knowledge is incredible as well as being a great teacher, you teach us something new everyday. Many other channels can not compare too. Thanks for everything you do!
Just typed Kyle Morris, gave me the blonde guy's channel first, next 2 of Kyle's videos, 1 Steve's and then the "correct" Kyle Morris channel :) typing from Poland 🇵🇱 thanks guys for all the knowledge 🙏 just subbed to Kyle's channel also
That is an enjoyable video. I enjoyed the scene switching and competition between father and son. I also like hearing the afr and timing amounts. Thanks. Rex in New Zealand.
Hey Kris! Another Kris here. I know you! I lived in Forest Lake area and I have seen you and your wife a few times at Har Mar and other car gatherings, I used to have fun turbo Mustangs and stuff, I may have ran your Malibu once or twice. Cool seeing you on Steve’s channel!
balancing would be a night-mare....magnets would have to be placed in perfect positions,around the flywheel,to obtain correct balancing..........And I'm not so sure your statement has been proven......aluminum flywheel rpm's quicker than steel flywheel,but releases inert rpm quicker than steel also....light weight car....aluminum flywheel....heavy car....steel flywheel......(on a standard shift car) to help launch car on starting line..
Old school yeah I got called that going down the road in the 84 El Camino. Putting a fresh 350 in it now with AFR heads NOS when I get a LS to replace the 350. Got new neighbors so it's time for them to hear it.
Hey Steve/Kyle, Maybe NOT a typical day, but u guys got the #'s, with NO engine failures.....and i just wanted to say i ENJOYED this vid front to back.....validates ALL kinds of stuff for me.....GODSPEED gentlemen!!!...ur GOOD sub'rs (like me, an engine builder) shud enjoy this one.. i am a PROUD sub'r for a while now (probably 4 yrs or so)....TY!!!.......Hey Steve, whats up wit da wifes new Camaro??? any progress???....just curious....PEACE to you sirs!!
I love watching your videos. I am very mechanical and have built both muscle cars and jet boats in the past (pre-children). I wish I had the time and extra cash to get back into those hobbies, but since I don’t I am fairly satisfied to watch your content because I can totally relate to a lot of it. I don’t think the average Joe fully understands what goes into designing, building and running these machines in terms of the time investment and the expense involved. Thanks for sharing your mad skills with us regular peddlers out here on the streets of America. I appreciate your dedication to your craft. It is obvious you truly love what you do. Well, most of the time. 😬
Cool video guys! I typed in Kyle Morris, and kylemorristgr came up first but every other video was yours from there. Thought yours would come up first since I’m subscribed, idk. It’s good info watching y’all make changes and check the plugs for proper combustion. I have a 93 coupe stang with a man o war 427 with trick flow 240 heads, and a tko. Just a street car and everything is new. Been trying to tune out sooty plugs since I fired it and the videos help.
Twin horsepower video, sweet. To see a motor with nelson turbos, cool. I grew up with his power shown, not sure why. But. Ya. Cool how tune corrects power
U guys r fast becoming the power house of families in BADASS HOTRODDDING no worries steve & Kyle cause mama VAL gona kick ur arse lol thanks guys fer sharing And educating folks . Hang in there Force we love ya Gosh wata Noice Chevelle on the dyno man i sure miss the super Chevy Sunday Events wen Ausleys were the big guys on the Block
So after the engine is on the dyno, i guess you give the customer the tune on a flash drive, whole ecu, and/or email them the tune file. Always wondered how that worked, can't put a boat on a dyno very easily and you may not have their ecu from their application.
@@metalted6128 i was KEEPING UP! YOU WONT UNDERSTAND CAUSE YOU DRIVE A CAMRY (RESPECTABLY) I DRIVE A DRAG RACING TOYOTA TACOMA SR5 6 SPEED MANUAL.....
