You are correct that the cam has something to do with it. There are others elements as well like the air/fuel ratio, timing, and engine temperature on mine. It seems to smooth out after it warms up. An engine builder could probably give a more accurate explanation.
i have a question i dont really know much about the technic in those engines but why is the idle like whooooomwoooooooomwhooooooom? and not a just solid wroooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooommmmmmmmmmmmm ? ^^
@qwyktruk I like that dash, I have a 66 C20. Did you replace the entire dash, or just do some fancy sheet metal work on the original? Looking to do something like that with mine.
Thanks Chris9450 . Original dash with some plates welded in and some bondo to smooth it out. Covered with material and a logo stuck in underneath. Pretty simple, just time consuming. I also made a drop down door under the pass side where the fuse block is mounted next to the MSD box. Out of site and out of the way of footroom.
@patwwe The engine numbers were 815.3 Tq @ 4600 rpm and 881.1 Hp @ 6000 rpms. That was a fresh motor and no intercooler. Good numbers for a (street driven) small block...lol Since then I have added the intercooler and dialed the motor in with air bleeds and timing. Numbers should be better! getting things ready for a chassis dyno to get rear wheel numbers.
@qwyktruk Damn that's quite a bit more than I was thinking. Wow I'm surprised it's actually street driven, you could take down any Ferrari haha. Nice to see someone treating their truck :D. Great job dude! What do you have as the rear axle by the way? Plus any NOS? Good luck next dyno test though!
@patwwe It's a Ford Nodular 9" with 4:10 gears , 31 spline Dutchman axles and a Moser Through bolt billet center section with a 1350 billet yoke. I've had that set up for years and never a failure...
As for Ferrarri's - there are some real fast ones out there.
@qwyktruk Thanks for information dude, more than I asked for thanks :D. That's good no failures, speaking of so, have you ever seen any of these type of trucks with a Dana 60 rear? It seems with all the blown engine that would be a good idea... Haha I would be willing to bet you could kick any Ferrari's ass! All engine huh? ;)
Your best bet would be to talk with an engine builder who builds supercharged engines. You probably could run a blower with 10:1 but it just limits how much boost you can run I would think. You might be able to run the blower at 1:1 or under driven. I've always ran 8:1 compression . There are just too many variables to consider
hulk625 - there may be a kit available but I did the windows about 10 years ago. It was a lot of work but worth it. You might wanna look over at the 60-66 chevy truck forum for more info.
Hi - the5445 , There is definitely no rod knock. Not sure what you hear but it could just be the hi-helix blower internals or the valves closing - has a pretty high lift cam. It is all aluminum too so sound may travel throughout more. 4" stroke. 6" rod, Big cam... who knows!
@qwyktruk True. haha When I first heard it I had to re listein to the video! I thought maby it slipped a bearing I didn't know. But now that you said it I think it is the sound of the valves closin
wow i run 114 when i spray it with 200 of nos we pay last year $3.73 a litrer so like 14 dollar a gallon but on the street i can run 94 octane. For automatic1237 my best 60 foot is 1.47 sec wheels up hoping for better kept blowin off the tires.
Hey roadman691 . Still haven't made it to the track yet. 118 gas is now 15.00 a gallon. Have been doing a few things to the truck to get it to run on lower octane and trying to decide whether to sell /trade or just keep it for another 13 years...lol
so does anyone kno what the 0 to 60 time is for one of these standard, my friends been talking about what a beast his truck is but i mean, that things gotta weigh a hefty sum right?
Hey rjc862003, Thanks !! The engine numbers were 815.3 Tq @ 4600 rpm and 881.1 Hp @ 6000 rpms. That was a fresh motor and no intercooler.

holy shit man.. this thing is GORGEOUS!! i love all american muscle,even though ive only owned mustangs, none of which i still own, but i must say, that the mid 60s to early 70s Chevys are the best looking trucks of all time as a street machine, wouldnt be my first choice if i were building a 4x4, but as a MEAN low Fast Street monster? this is a dream to me.. Congrats on having one of the best looking trucks around my friend
ur truck is really nice!awsome engine also.need some of ur input. I'm about to drop some $ into my 66 long bed.has a v8 not sure if its 327.(most likely).want to make 400hp w/ no forced induction.can i make it w/ having no major problems?plan on suprchrg in future & try over 500.do u suggest buyn a bigger crate engine or build off what it has?
Hi zuesisgod777 !! The lights are out of a '88 Sedan DeVille...turned upside down to kinda match the curvature of the bedside. It was 13 years ago when I first finished the body work and was kinda popular back then. I still like 'em ... ;-)
Hi emptypockets5555 . I was told the same thing !! I too like the look but it is an awful lot of work, so be prepared if you are going to remove the drip rail ...
Hi amanofgreatevil . The dash is stock but welded and filled to create the smoothe effect. I just laid a Chevrolet insignia under the padding . Then I built a console to house the rest of the guages. Too many guages...lol Thanks for the kudos...J
duffin208 , is that a bad thing?? Actually it's a result of constantly upgrading over a 13 year period... 5 motors, 2 trannys and a bunch of other parts got the truck to where it is !
dam must you tees.... haha I got a 82 chevy s-10 with a 350 swap in it. bought it 4 $800 cash been working on it for months...... im just starting on it though.... your truck looks like a beastly mother! once i saw the blower and the supercharger on that my jaw dropped! how fast are you running on the track if you dont mind me asking?
Haha teenrocker162 . No teasing, just sharing a video or 2. I bought my truck 13 years ago for 400.00 It takes lots of time and work so keep at it. Not allowed on the track due to no door handles and no cage.
Thanx k2mslskier . Welded up the cluster opening and glove box and radio, smoothed it out and covered it with foam and synthetic leather. Put the Chevy insignia under the leather to break up the flat surface there. It was done many years ago when having a dash full of gauges was in. I did it cause I need all the gauges.
sorry oficer i couldnt see the car infront of me over my HUGE FUCKING AIR INTAKE or whever its called p.s. what is the appriote name for that thing that sucks in air lol i used to know its name i swear must be all the recent alcohol in my bloodstream lol
WOW Man I hope my ride looks AND sounds a sweet when its done.... I just pick up a 66 FS Long bed its my first hot rod.. 350/350 turbo,Comp Cam,steel crank,flat top pistons trickflow aluminum heads trick flow roller rockers eldelbrock intake and carb with Hei ignition
how much money did you spend on mods to fit the engine?? I'm tryin to do somethin like this to my car (02 blazer xtreme) they look roughly about the same size
many years ago a 69 camaro front clip was installed and that made it easier. The mods aren't that drastic. Headers were the biggest headache ! Good luck.
Thanks for noticing. It took a looong time to work the engine combo out and although it has lots of power it's very manageable until you stab the throttle. Then all hell breaks loose.
Yeah, but I'm still messing with the airbleeds. Some fluctuation is just going to happen with the hi helix blower and the huge fuel demand this motor has. Its actually minimal compared to some Ive heard. Thanx though!
Wow nice fuel lines.....umm not to be nosy but im stating to learn about engines and performance and i was just wondering what would it be good to put on my engine i got a 82 chevy but they told me that its been swapped out with a 350 off a camaro and i was wondering what can i do to make it haul ass and yet keep it street legal.....(dam cops take the fun away) lol if you dont mind telling me i like your work? if not its cool love the truck though =) respect.
With all that it took to make it work correctly , it was over 30k ...then there was the fuel system and the additional cooling system loop for the intercooler. Oh, and the $10. a gallon fuel...lol needless to say it doesn't get driven much
hi gearhead- those are 850 Mighty Demons that have been worked over by Hekimian Racing and have the biggest jets avail. With the fuel demand from the motor I had to run huge fuel lines for the whole system
hey thanks for the compliment. There is only one cam and it's as big as I want to go for the application. It was ground specifically for the vehicle weight, gears , trans and motor internals and with the 23 degree heads it's about max. I also have 1.6 and 1.7 shaft rockers so that was a consideration on the cam grind as well. 900+ hp and 800+ tq is ample for a small block don't ya think?
Actually it's right about where it needs to be. Much lower and it shudders when in gear at idle. The blower is overdriven and it lopes pretty good. The idle speed is 1200.
Hi freako, I'm running a Ford 9" with a Moser thru-bolt center section, 31 spline axles and 4:10 gears (locker). I had 4:30's and it was too much for street driving.
Not allowed on the track. No cage and no door handles. Stupid rules but ... My '37 Chevy ran 8.55 in the 1/4 and this truck is not quite as fast and weighs more. Best guess would be in the low to mid 10's. Just a guess though!
It's the tall one. With that manifold, the intercooler and the carb spacers the motor is 46" tall from pan to carbs. Then add the scoop and it really sticks up there!
Is it the tall manifold or the short, I believe tbs sells two different models. Just wondering because I'm going with the same settup, just can't decide to go with the tall or short manifold, takes alittle more height on the half tons to get em poking out of the hood just right but yours looks spot on.
Looks like you have an intercooler but I can't really tell, also what intake are you running? I had my jambs painted on my 86 with that same scheme, then my buddy stole the Idea for his truck so I decided to go solid black. Very nice work
Good eye! The whole set-up is Blower Shop. The intercooler and blower are billet.The manifold was port matched and coated. There is a separate cooling system for the intercooler under the truck. I've had this paint scheme for 11 years and I've seen 2 others painted nearly the same over the past 2 years.
That's not so much lifter noise as the rotors inside the blower. When you are standing next to it, it sounds different than on the tape Crappy mic in the camera.lol
Do you really need that fancy doo dad engine to haul firewood?

Thanks for noticing. It took a looong time to work the engine combo out and although it has lots of power it's very manageable until you stab the throttle. Then all hell breaks loose.

when engine idols up and down....throttle plates need .060 hole...hole increases air at idol
TeacherPHD 2 years ago
Yeah, but I'm still messing with the airbleeds. Some fluctuation is just going to happen with the hi helix blower and the huge fuel demand this motor has. Its actually minimal compared to some Ive heard. Thanx though!

Thanks D !! I've had the truck for 12 years and never planned it to be a show truck as much as a go truck...lol
qwyktruk 2 years ago
how much did that engine cost?
drutherford99 2 years ago
With all that it took to make it work correctly , it was over 30k ...then there was the fuel system and the additional cooling system loop for the intercooler. Oh, and the $10. a gallon fuel...lol needless to say it doesn't get driven much

very good work man. needs bigger cams though.
the5445 2 years ago
hey thanks for the compliment. There is only one cam and it's as big as I want to go for the application. It was ground specifically for the vehicle weight, gears , trans and motor internals and with the 23 degree heads it's about max. I also have 1.6 and 1.7 shaft rockers so that was a consideration on the cam grind as well. 900+ hp and 800+ tq is ample for a small block don't ya think?
qwyktruk 2 years ago
omg a small block with 900 hp? wow that is alot. but may i ask why is your idle so high?
the5445 2 years ago
Actually it's right about where it needs to be. Much lower and it shudders when in gear at idle. The blower is overdriven and it lopes pretty good. The idle speed is 1200.
qwyktruk 2 years ago
what rear end gears do you have and is is posi? GM or Ford rear?
freako918 2 years ago
Hi freako, I'm running a Ford 9" with a Moser thru-bolt center section, 31 spline axles and 4:10 gears (locker). I had 4:30's and it was too much for street driving.

have you taken your truck to the track? or do you plan on it?
irezumi 2 years ago
Not allowed on the track. No cage and no door handles. Stupid rules but ... My '37 Chevy ran 8.55 in the 1/4 and this truck is not quite as fast and weighs more. Best guess would be in the low to mid 10's. Just a guess though!

nice truck and wow nice fuel line work.

It's the tall one. With that manifold, the intercooler and the carb spacers the motor is 46" tall from pan to carbs. Then add the scoop and it really sticks up there!
qwyktruk 2 years ago
Is it the tall manifold or the short, I believe tbs sells two different models. Just wondering because I'm going with the same settup, just can't decide to go with the tall or short manifold, takes alittle more height on the half tons to get em poking out of the hood just right but yours looks spot on.
86prostreet 2 years ago
Looks like you have an intercooler but I can't really tell, also what intake are you running? I had my jambs painted on my 86 with that same scheme, then my buddy stole the Idea for his truck so I decided to go solid black. Very nice work
86prostreet 2 years ago
Good eye! The whole set-up is Blower Shop. The intercooler and blower are billet.The manifold was port matched and coated. There is a separate cooling system for the intercooler under the truck. I've had this paint scheme for 11 years and I've seen 2 others painted nearly the same over the past 2 years.

That's not so much lifter noise as the rotors inside the blower. When you are standing next to it, it sounds different than on the tape Crappy mic in the camera.lol
