Kevin's 1971 "HELL CAMINO" cammed up 383 stroker

This is my 1971 El Camino after my engine swap. I this motor from a 350 from a 1976 Corvette and I put on a 3.75" stroke crank and bored it .030 over to make it a 383 stroker. I put on a Comp Cams Xtreme Energy XE268H cam, high energy pushrods, roller rockers with a 1.6:1 ratio and dual valve springs w/new retainers, locks, and valve stem seals. The cam with the higher ratio rockers is .508" lift intake and .510" lift ex. And open headers for now :).

This car is a fucking joke. I hope you sold it to someone who knew what they are doing. If my el camino engine sounded as shitty as that id try and say it was because the "cam" also. You should look into getting a civic, seems like more of your style.

@wisechris come to long island ny n lock up a race...i built the entire car myself. Thats more than you could ever wish to do. Ill race u with any of my cars...i got a mint 69 gto in my garage in the vid that i restored and built myself also. So quit running ur mouth unless u wanna talk shit in person. If ur trying to call me out with something back it up.

i call bull shit on the 11.5s bud. especially with that lil dinky single feed holley and stock suspension. anyone can say they run 11.5's on here.

[chambeers]

I'm not here to talk shit, but it's def. not stock suspension in the vid and the holley is long gone by now. The video is over 2 years old. I said when it runs FASTER than 11.5 all motor. Which translates to maybe it can try to keep up.

[tomsriv]

Because it hardly gives any more power, keeps you from rebuilding again and can cause hot spots in the cylinders.

Can't we all just get along? lol

[martijncola]

great tone! i like the project car look! im building a 350 for my freight train impala wagon:P maybe she will sound i little like that monster!

@wisechris shut up you jelouse bitch, this hellcamino would wreck your car in a race, you can tell its been his project car so give him slack, this things a monster, goodjob bro

[cody69elcamino]

@wisechris first of all who really cares about proper grammar second why bag on someone vid your big and mighty 454 takes a year and a half to get up in rpm just to back chambeers up ill race you keep in mind i "only have a 427" with ported and polished heads 740 lift intake 732 exhuast 12.5-1 compression twin 750 carbs that run e85 with 1.7 roller rockers roller lifters tunnel ram intake gear drive timing set runnin 900 hp so before you start talking think about all the real car guys that care

[cody69elcamino]

question for you why did you get new retainers and keepers you didnt need to the factory springs, keepers and retainers are good to 600 lift?

[MrArnoldCunningham]

@chambeers nice car !and btw dont even listen to that prick snot nose rich ass kid wise bitch cris which braggs with mom and daddy's car.this is some of the nicest cars ive ever seen.IF u sell it how much would u ask?kind regards ..

[joebaileygl1500]

@chambeers it sounds good to those who really kno the work that goes into a engine, good job, ignorance is every where

[dragata1]

@chambeers did u say mint wow i wish i could see that i would love to race it man my 1968 mustang fastback with a fitted 351w c6 tranny open headers flowmaster exsausht holly carb bored 4.060 forged pistons and SIR lightweight rods i need to get vis of it

[wisechris]

@chambeers I do not know what kind of strokers you build but they should NOT sound like that. But, good try trying to justify the poorly build engine. I was simply stating the fast about how your engine is just a pile of melting getting ready to crater. Trust me, if i were anywhere near long island i would definitely meet you on the drag strip with my el camino and let my 454 walk all over your "stroker". If you feel the need to reply to this comment also will you please use proper grammar. :)
