Hot Off The Dyno: Our Favorite Engine Builds – Engine Power S8, E22

1. Power Nation / Engine Power

   I enjoy your show and watch daily. I love some the big power you guy are building and then changing various components like exhaust manifold, intake manifold and showing the power difference made on the Dyno.
   I have a request and it does not involve big engine or big power. A few of us have bought Jeeps or Dodge products with the 2.5L, 4-cylinder engine. Idea was to still enjoy off road expeditions without needed big power for rock crawling or climbing vertical cliffs. Would consider showing all the possible power improvements possible for this little squirrel engine. There seems to be a lot mystical knowledge about what makes power. For example, will porting the intake really add any power? Will changing the throttle body from 2.5 engine to one from a 4.0 engine? Changing from single point injectors to twelve-point injector make power or improve economy? Will roller rocker arms really make a difference on such a small horsepower engine? What performance parts if any are available for 2.5L 4-cylinder motor? Will headers really improve power or torque? There is a few videos and chats some say there is power out there, others say it really doesn’t make a performance improvement.
   I’m sure you get a lot of request, but if you have time in your build schedule there is a lot of us would appreciate you being the “MythBusters” of what this little engine can do.

   P.S. I can't believe I had to post this on Youtube. I could not find an email or posting place on the Power Nation Website.

2. G'day 🤠 I see the SEMA episode about that gorgeous Hydrogen powered Chevy…it's time we started talking about things like that real world…how about a Hydrogen build ?
   I don't want to give up my truck ..75 Series LandCruiser..when they ban fossil fuels which is gonna happen sooner than we think..

3. Electric is faster.

4. Ls, blown ls, sbc. The ancient is the only one that peaks my interest, even though its got not cheap allot heads.

   Please build different engines such as the Ford 300, chevy inline with boost etc.

   Its making power with stock parts that interest me. Anybody can buy parts and bolts them together to make power. My 12y.o daughter could end up doing it.
   Real gurus build engines anyone can follow a set of procedures and bolt one together

5. 1st generation small block Chevrolet? Low speed power in a 5000lb vehicle with a single plane intake?

6. Try doing a Olds DX block

7. This show is way too scripted

8. And clocked over 100.000.000 Klms

9. And this engine was used in cabs in Australia and hold a record for number of Klms

10. I have a challenge for power nation
    To get a Australian Ford barra motor and it must be a barra motor not Toyota or GM a Australian Ford barra straight 6 twin overhead cam turbo Oh by the way this engine holds a world record 2200 bhp at the wheels now beat it or go home
    Australian made Australian power from a 6 cylinder killing all of us inline 6 cylinder engines so
    Will you or not show it a believe not because Australian have the record

11. Borrrrrrrrrrrrrrrriiiiiiiiinnnnnnnngggggggggg

12. I love that Javelin, most of them are fugly but not the one you guys built, I've watched the Javelin episodes many times, good job!

13. Can you put that crank into a 5.3L on the carcass build

14. Where can i go to get these guys to work on my car lmao

15. AFR 220s on a “low rpm” 383 torquer build?

16. Would it kill you to power wash those nasty junkyard engines before taking them in for work?

17. I love power Nation. My 3 month old daughter is forced to watch it with me haha

18. These are cool and all but I want to see an International Harvester 345 build. I grew up on IH farm equipment and I love the old IH Travelette pickups.
    Maybe y’all can restore an IH pickup to put it into.

19. I liked the PORTION on the AMC 304ci V-8
    COOP
    …

20. Nice work 👍
