Turbo 3 Liter Sheet Metal Engine - Record Run - El Mirage 10/22/2023 - Aardema Braun 

Almost as fast as your Honda! Keep up the good work Roberto!

If you are ever in the San Diego area let us know!

I'm not a pro at RU-vid. I really enjoy doing this and documenting the hidden talent in the shop. I think people are conditioned to watching rehearsed and produced RU-vid channels which this is not. This is 100% organic and done with my GoPro 10 and 11 cameras. All is done on low budget editing software. RU-vid is very competitive and it is difficult to move up in popularity. A few of the videos have gone viral which really helped put the channel on the map. It would take a large organization like Hot Rod Magazine or Leno's garage to help grow the channel more. Thank you for the kind words. Greg

Thank you Snow! You guys rock!

Set that record, even with that nasty bit of wheel spin on the way up! They'll be back to raise their own record!

Pete and Kevin are getting it ready for next month with plans to go for the 227 fuel record!

Glad you like them! Thank you!

Thank you for the compliment we are 100% organic. I just let the camera roll and record the action. No pre-scripted shows here, dirty hands, oil on the ground and shop dog running around! Good old fashion hot rodding at its best!

@GregQuirin Your videos are a window into the genius of these guys. I have worked and played in engineering all my life, and I always learn something. Their lateral thinking is second to none. Thanks for your work 🙌

My pleasure!

Thanks! 👍

@@GregQuirin awesome! Will do. Can't wait

Just like in Porsche 968 3.0L

Back in the 1950s the Ferrari 860 Monza was running a 3.4 L inline four cylinder engine.

No Fuel for this run. F- Motor designation, 3L with a turbo.

Impressive

Four cylinder isnt it ?

The 3 Liter is a four cylinder engine!

Thank you, @@GregQuirin. That surprises me, because any inline four-cylinder engine above 2 liters capacity requires a balance shaft to run smoothly. Does this engine have a balance shaft? Thanks!

@@leslienordman8718 Ferrari built some big four-cylinder engines in the 1950s up to 2.5 L for Formula One and as large as 3.4 L for sports car racing. The BMW S14 engine used in the E30 M3 had 2.3 L and 2.5 L versions and I don't think any of them had a balance shaft. I'm guessing that smoothness wasn't the main consideration here.

This head design is unique to this engine only, Kevin machined it from billet material. This one is a 3 valve and makes 662 HP at 15 lbs of boost.
