The head machining is wild, 5-axis CNC to reach all way into port😳
People of a certain age, will remember Kawasaki green-streak Green
Love the very poor acting
True statement that green was ugly ass hell …..
I would love to find a junkyard Dodge 318 for a rebuild project instead of buying a crate engine 😮😮😮😮😅😅😅
Engines are something that need close attention when rebuilding them🤔🤔🤔🤔
It will put more air fuel and more response 0:33
If you make another center part for the supercharger and modify the center part raise it 4inch or so cut it out and it will make more TQ AND HP TO 50 PLUS MORE 0:32
Oh man painting a 6/71 green oh my God.. no…😢
I know why it failed…..too many pens in your pocket!
Only so much power for so long you can put through a stock block.
Block is twisted. Dont use that block again.
It is for sure beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but the green is way over the top.
I LOVE THAT ENGINE COLOR!!!! looks great guys.
@POWERNATION TRYING TO FIND THE ANSWER TO THIS QUESTION: CAN i build a 383 STROKER FROM A 327??????
Classic case of needing chamber softening?
I would love to have that 6.2l I need it for my truck
This is a Permatex right stuff ad! Sure it sticks, and I will give them the better than most. However, it's not necessary and if/when you have to take it apart it's a PITA.
Im pretty sure it was that nasty green paint that caused the problems.
Immature disgusting vulgar language is only spewed from depraved Godless minds. As the Bible says, "out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh". So if you want your speech to be pure, you must keep your mind pure.
And never, I repeat never spew profanity in public which is verbal assault on others.
"ItS nOt GoInG iN yOuR pAvEmEnT PoUnDeR aNyWaY" considering it blew up on the dyno, its not going in yours either lol.
I have a 350 SBC with cheap sterling cast flat top pistons that years ago it developed a slight vibration and it always ran smooth, I didn't know why but it was minor enough and it didn't burn oil have excessive blow bye it ran perfect so I didn't bother worrieing I just ran it and for quite awhile. One day I pulled the heads to replace them and there was a chunk missing off a piston very similar tho that just not quite as big but I could see part of the ring. I went to the local carquest asked if they could order one and they had a .030 one on the shelf for $15! I had it pressed on I think I may have swapped the rings over to the new piston and whahlah perfect. It was from temporarily using 67cc 305 heads I had tossed on to get it running and I was being cheap and ran 87 in it now n then… The compression ratio must have been 10:1 ish and yeah 87 not a good combo, but I was a kid and was broke all the time and it bit me.
