How to Make BIG POWER, Safely /ENGINEERED 

congratulations on getting such a legend to mention and be impressed with your work, you really earned it with all of the work you do for everybody in the automotive community.

+Sloppy Mechanics Damn didn't know you were still making videos... one of my favorite car-related channels.

Dude, learn to construct a sentence with a start, middle & end with a full stop. Commar after commar is just confusing everybody way more than necessary.

Sloppy Mechanics are

I definitely would like to second that comment sloppy. Tom is a realist I got the opportunity to meet him, my wife and I visited cali from Toronto Canada and he really showed us some socal hospitality!! He showed us the shop and spent his very valuable time speaking with us JUST BECAUSE! My wife really got to see why I am so pationate about the automotive world because of guys like Tom. You are also the man Matt been followin u sine the start as well keep it up guys you, it is individuals like yourselves who lead the way for the future gearheads that are becoming less and less nowadays!

good to see u here 😌

+Engineering Explained LOL hey Love the vids man. 1200 HP for the street, to remain safe. But i'd say definitely if a person has a AWD Nissan or Lambo you could go more. Now, in a , 800+ rwd can get you in trouble on the street.

but it will NEVER sound like a V8

With 1k+ HP who cares what it sounds like ;-)

1200 ho should be enough on the street

Ayy lmao

Beugh

Probably both

I could watch that all day. Wish the other vids weren't private :( I hate waiting. Heh.

Mechanical Engineer here, working as a technician to pay my way through school. The more I work the more i want to learn about it. It is INSANE the amount of intricacies behind the design of an automobile. From the oil pump to the transmission to the wheels. The amount of thought that goes into ONE PIECE is sickening.

+vivalaphill dude, look up nelsons racing. It's insane these people

+Cornwall1888 my 1807 horse carriage made 2500hp but thanks to this video i removed 1300 horses, since i know that 1200 is enough :´´D

vivalaphill don't go down to 1150bhp you'll never get up to speed on the freeway.

Cornwall1888 yeah, noticed that aswell it´s kinda hard to overtake someone now or accelerate while driving up a slope..

+Cornwall1888 For some reason i was expecting him to say 500-600hp or something at least somewhat reasonable haha

+Dr Unemployed My mustang which has around 400 whp is plenty fast i cant fathom driving something with 1200hp or more... faster than a liter bike?

Yes

He was getting 800hp out of a pinto engine!!

Dingus Kahn me too but now adays it's too dangerous I only race strip and soon speed runs only

Oh man, you just spoke my mind! 👍😁

Hope your first build goes well! I’m planning on doing the same thing. I’ve messed about with engines and cars before but I think I need to go right back to basics first with Instruction manual in hand etc. Here in 🇬🇧 we got the famous Haynes manuals which are really good. I’m gonna rebuild a lawnmower engine, a 2 stroke, maybe a motorbike engine, a four pot engine, then try a V8. I need a bit more practice first. I’m fully expecting to blow up my first turbo conversion. I was thinking of a 2 litre four pot turbo conversion. I will blow that up first and go from there 😂🤣

And I thought the same. What the hell trans and diffs hold all that crazy power? Modified th400?

+DCsProductions Make it capable of space travel.

+/DRIVE is that how that works? or are smart space oriented people more into electric drive while V8 idiots do donuts.

+DCsProductions Hate seeing PMD cars with Chevy in it...

+ramairgto72 Chevy? Or you mean GM Corporate engines?

iaidobey If GM didn't list them as Gen 1, 2, 3 & 4 I would call them Corporate engines. But since GM calls them Chevy Generation engines I will call them what they are.

Cool How much hp Have you reached 350 hp with that

It actually makes just a bit more than that. I don't wanna push it till i get forged rods. Hopefully Ill have time this winter to put my intercooler in it, then I can give it more timing and power and stay safe on the rods. but now I'm in a kx500 project, and I want to turbo that. this work has so many vehicles, so many turbos, so little time!

This video is a felony............Read close..........Behold I present the following as fact This video crossed the line from Fake News/info then crossed the line of rank obscenity to a full blown abomination and cardinal sin The 2019 5.3 runs on 2 cylinders and gets WORSE MILEAGE than the 5.3 that ran on 8 FULL TIME and was still a POS dog I've been around sprint cars all my life, 97% chevy dominated. And 99.5% of the chevy teams and stables run the Siamese twin intake/exhaust chevy small block from 1955. LS has been out 22 years. The ONLY WAY Chevy can get auto racing to run LS is to mandate it like NASCAR did. Otherwise, if you race Chevy, you run a 1955 block. 22 years and they STILL haven't got a gear front drive nor stack fuel injection that works worth a shit. Aluminum LS still weighs 90 lbs more than aluminum 1955 engine block. With those UGLY valve covers. After 54 years of R&D, it's a no-brainier you go with the 1955 style engine. Chevy gave Ron Shaver, best sprint car engine builder in the world unlimited funds. Please make an LS competitive. After 3 years and thousands of special project man-hours. mods, after-market development. 19/1 methanol compression... The best he could do was 800 HP out of a 427 cu in LS engine. 17 cu in over the 410 legal limit and 90 lbs heavier. When any, AND I DO MEAN ANY shitty sprint car engine builder, with a BAD REPUTATION can take 2nd tier parts. And build a 1955 style engine BLIND FOLDED and get 900 HP off the dyno. That's mid-pack "B" Feature Material with a better than ave shoe. LS is absolute SHIT. If sprint car racing ever mandates LS. I swear to God the entire sport from coast to coast will tell Chevy to shove LS up their ass, and they will ALL, and I do mean ALL, switch to an aluminum MOPAR "Y" Block with Siamese twin exhaust 410 cu in that will will produce 925 hp and weight 292 lbs. Apposed to a < 800 hp LS that weighs 397 lbs. BOAT ANCHOR, DITCH STOP MATERIAL. Every word of this video makes Hillary Clinton look like Honest .......... This video is a threat to our national security. Posting shit like this should be a Class "C" FELONY.
