This Is How You Make A 550+ Horsepower N/A LS1 Engine! (6.2 Liter Stroked LS1 w/ Holley Low Ram) 

It's a 6 liter with decent flowing heads I mean of course it's going to make decent power with the right setup. Ford's make the power with alot less displacement and own when boost enters the equation. They can make a ton of power with boost on a stock untouched long block. Don't feel too ashamed of your Ford roots. 500 hp on an engine dyno isn't that great for a 6 liter engine that has been gone into (heads, cam etc etc).

You could get a gen 1 truck coyote and throw a cheap turbo at it for 2500 or less and have 700 to the tire stock long block pretty reliably.

@@midnight347 Sold. I'll even give you an extra thousand For that truck With that motor and a Turbo system. With 700 whp As a matter of fact I'll take three of them.

@@midnight347 well...thanks. I think? Let me help you in return. No one said anything about being ashamed. I didn't stop loving the same thing I've been loving my hole life because of my Junkyard 6.0 LS. That said. I have ALOT of power REAL cheap. $4,5000 6.0 4l80e Terminator x max VS racing turbo Fuel system. Still need to blow off wast gates Intercooler 3 bar. For 5000 The junkyard 100 miles away Will sell me a coyote& transmission. If I had the money I would buy it. 🤘

sloppy mechanics Matt did 750 hp to the wheels with a 4.8L ls with a $500 turbo kit and sloppy stage 2? cam.

Well when you have 2 LS1 intakes crack on you, Its' crazy that a Holly intake manifold can make you so happy. It's the small things! Ha.

550 hp at the crank is alot different than 550 wheel. Real car guys don't talk crank hp or estimated crank hp.

Oh, then do you say wheel horsepower when its on an engine dyno?@@midnight347

trail blazer ss intake works good.

550 at the crank maybe. Was it dynoed? I've seem similar setups make 500 crank.

@@midnight347 it was. 475 wheel. Those rect port heads really flow.

@@kyle8380what cam

Was this on an LS1? you won't get much more than that without E85 or forced induction

What size cam? I'm thinking of going with a sloppy stage 2

Fast intakes are known to crack

@@TheOfficiaIGhost how tha fook does a intake manifold every crack lmfao

@@StelioKontos42069 do your research. Had 3 crack racing baja

Yup one fart and it's shit everywhere 😂

​@TheOfficiaIGhost yea my vette is never running baja. It'll probably be fine 💀

Now you're talkin!

@@CoreyHosfordRacing i was a boost nutcase until I discovered cosworth engines. And watched guys out high rails port injected 4 cylinders to 500 plus HP. And I was like wait a second? Then I started watching g banks too and I was like ohhh, ur actually trying to compress the air and the more heat the less that compression works. There’s actually the right amount of vaccume to pull all the air u need into the cylinder, u just need to make the best pathway there, the coolest as possible and port injection keeps them cool, as well as if u can maintain the rpm higher u can get linear increasss every 1000 rpms. And instead of having the air come in and slit into 8 places, u make it every two cylinders and u also design the intake manifold and arrange the timing so when a valve closes that air going into the closed rail bounces off and directs itself into an open valve. U have a better shot at making this happen when u pair up the cylinders and based on the firing order and timing u pair those specific ones. So the Valkyrie intake is a great example of this. There is 6 verticle rails on a v12. They are high and straight verticle but the inside of it has baffles that help bounce that air back and forth to the next valve opening. It’s like a ping pong ball sending air into the valve with extra pressure than the vaccume of the piston. U should see the customizing and special porting old timers do to 4 cylinder cosworth engines for the dirt drift racing cars. I forgot what their called but they look like go carts that can fly cuz the giant wing on the top of the cart. But y wanna see how to properly build a NA monster u start with a cosworth and watch those drift cart thingys motor guys. They port the shit by cylinder and totally alter the intakes. But they have extra ports they add in to measure cfm, vaccume and temp and they tune each cylinder individually. They’ll make it able to flow more fuel. They’ll increase the amount of fuel out of the injector they have pre set dies they make to drill in different angels that they know already ahead of time are needed to effect the flow. They will change the spread on the injector by plugging parts of the screen to make one side flow more fuel and a more direct path rather than it bouncing off of some side of the rail and taking longer to reach the valve. It’s crazy

lol getting the LS valve train to hold up to that is a pain and more money than worth it. Not to mention I think the LS heads run out of flow that high

​@ThePookybear56 obviously that build in the video ain't cheap and those aren't stock LS heads and i can get LS the flow pretty dang well..u ever heard of texas speed? Pretty sure they make a pretty decent high flow head. Then we can go to the non jacketedd billet heads that have no water jackets and can be ported till the sun comes home buddy. My camaro shift light comes on at 9000 rpms n I'm a electrician lol. I'm sure guys who do this daily can get way more done then me

It's a Gen IV 102mm Drive by Wire Throttle Body. A few companies make them, I picked this one up for under $250 and bolts right up to the Holley Intake.

@@CoreyHosfordRacing right on, thank you for the reply. Does it work ok/ easy to tune, etc.?

Of course it is. People love quoting engine hp numbers to make it sound more impressive in the click bait title.

@@midnight347 Still that is around 500 to the wheel

⁠@@exoticspeedefy7916how do you figure? 20% drivetrain loss brings you to 440 wheel

@@bighitstepside Most cars loose about 40-50hp through the drivetrain

@@bighitstepsideits not a wrx bro it doesnt have 20% drivetrain loss lmao its prolly like 480-500 wheel

Maybe on a factory LS, but we bumped up the compression to 11:1, hoping the low ram can give us a bit more air across the entire range.

@@CoreyHosfordRacingdo you think it’s still a benefit I have one not sure if I wanna throw it on ima be running nitrous and e85 with a cam rn still stock I have all the parts not sure to put it on or leave stock intake

It’s built for N/A so the ring gap is pretty tight. I would say it could only take 4-6 pounds at its current build. If I were to re ring it, we can push it up to 30 + pounds safely.

Boost is a measure of restriction I hate when people talk about boost like its absolute. Airflow is what matters not boost pressure. A big block with big heads and cam pushing 10 psi would be flowing more air than a stock small block long block pushing 20 psi. That is why boost pressure doesn't matter. It's a measure of restriction.

The more liters it is the more cubes it has? Wtf r u even talking about lol

@@midnight347 its just a joke

If I buy a LS3 and want to build it for boost or High Compression, I’m still going to have to spend money on piston, rods and crank head etc. I picked up the LS1 for 500$ out of a corvette. So I was able to build this well under a cost of a LS3.

​@CoreyHosfordRacing So, is the block re-sleeved to get a 4"+ bore? I couldn't think of another way to get your displacement (LS3 bore 4.065")out of an LS1 block that can only be honed .004" on the 97-98 blocks due to poor casting position of the stock sleeves when they were poured, and no more the a .010" over-bore on all 99-later LS1/LS6 blocks.

​@@CoreyHosfordRacingAnd if it was sleeved, what sleeves did you install, and how much were your machining/install costs? I've considered doing this myself with an LS1/6 block or re-sleeving a 5.3 AL block because I have easy affordable access to either.
