This beast of a big-block Chevy is a two-year project that finally is finished and Dyno-tested and we couldn't be happier with it. In fact, after a bit of tuning it produced over 800 ft-lbs of torque and 1,010 horsepower without a power adder. This single carb monster would be sick in your next project car, truck or boat. Want more info? Watch the video as we show you how to install a new MSD slip collar distributor before we rev this 582ci V8 over 7,000 rpm on Westech Performance' Superflow engine Dyno.
13.5 compression, 582", 7100 rpm and 1010 hp is about 98% volumetric efficiency. Pretty impressive.
How do you calculate the efficiency
race engines are calculated with a VE of 1.1 Street engines are calculated .85@@alphadog6114
No music during dyno pulls or any other time an engine revs... Thanks ;)
I thought the bass drums on the song was the engine missing.
Its a dyno room, horrible audio and the exhaust is piped outside. Plus, its cell phone video.
@@Stuka87 Haha I know right, some people just like acting spoiled/entitled
Eric Lock yeah that pissed me off too
He used a death metal misfire cam.
An engine without any emission controls is a beautiful thing.
An engine without these crap emits almost no fine particles
A properly tuned engine doesn't need any.
William Chapman Tuning can be a HUGE part of emissions but so is design. An engine with a “big cam” with a lot of overlap properly tuned will have more emissions than the same motor with smaller cam and proper tune. I agree with you on tuning I’m just saying if emissions is a concern than it starts with the engines specs.
Amen brother!
Especially here in Arkansas.
Well, I have been a trainer and engine builder for 40 years. This video was fantastic. The main reason is; gave away all the knoeldge and shared everything in terms of knowledge value. Good stuff.
I love that you guys share your mistakes too.
My advice is the V8 not designed for all position use. Car or boat ok, cant call aaa
One Finnegan video is worth three of anyone else's efforts. Amazing info and detail, thank you!
i agree brother.. Finnegan knows what is up! i always enjoy his videos and always learn something i did not know. always worth the time!
slammerf16 He’s hung out with a professional film crew for almost a decade now...He clearly knows how to do this & is using what he’s learned. He makes really good videos.
except a roadkill video... if they were free still
Noooooo, why did you put music on top of that beautiful big block roar?
Man oh man... what just happened...
You’d have thought Finnegan would know better...
They have too many people working on the videos. Over producing is often end result of such a situation.
It might have been Westech
@@volvo245 Too many people? One person edits these videos.
I learned this from HRM in the '80s: "Speed costs money. How fast do you want to go?"
Me too.
Ain't it the truth....while speed can be built on a budget.....how long will those budget parts last and when they break are they re-buildable ? If guys were smart and they really don't know what their doing and wanna maximize the money they do have....they would find a good Machinist/Engine builder and go that route.....or pony up for a complete pan to carb dynoed Crate Engine from a proven builder like Reher& Morrison or some one.
Harshman?
@@mattprice4358 If you're not joking I believe he means Hot Rod Magazine but he might mean Harshman. It's crazy that 2k is considered a budget build and not meant for crazy power.
Yes
OMG that is one beefy big block hats off to you mr. Finnegan you know how to make a thousand horsepower naturally aspirated and we cannot forget the genius Steve Brule for absolutely one of the best tuners in the world love this video
Your knowledge of engine-building is amazing.
So are those noodle legs. Go electric, be healthy leave less of a mark and more of a legacy.

Anytime HP is added to a motor some where an angel gets its wings....I love this channel and everything you guys do to help ppl like me who have a decent knowledge of motors but not anywhere near what you guys have...I have learned a ton about setting up motors and what to do or not to do because of you guys seriously thank you very much I will sponge every bit of knowledge I can get from you guys.
I love the simple fact that it was a non added engine with machining and good name brand parts that made it all work. And great gas helps . Sweet Fin !!
And this is the reason that the Big Block Chevrolet still rules the world of big inch engines.
The world has moved on from big inch engines... forced induction is a thing, and it makes this power reliably at 1/4 the price
@@nosebergs-are-at-it-again Big inch turbo motors though
Heres a tip Mike. When installing 2 o rings as in the case of your msd distributor, install the lower one first. Then the upper will slip right past the lower, reducing the chance of it catching the lower groove. Learned this rebuilding fork legs on my many 2 wheeled machines. Great video Mike.
Man, too bad its going in a boat, would love to hear that beast in a street car!
Boat is way cooler
Yeah the Whole lake is the Radiator eh . ..
No speed or noise limits on the water.
@@tezzrterry7485 wrong
I doubt it could run the 13:1 compression on the street. Especially in traffic. But even on a strip in a nice classic Camaro would be the chit...
Such a cool build channel! Love how you explain your thought process and how you even showed the original distributor was incorrect. Calm and soothing. First "met" you on Cleet's channel. Amazing build without the complexity of power adders. Over 1,000 hp that will last a very long time.. Subbed!
Thanks for sharing your knowledge of engines! Your videos provide more useful information and less B.S. than all the ones I've seen. Great job!
Channeling your inner Tim (the tool man) Taylor for the distributor install... great video!
Love the videos Finn! Keep doing what you do brother!
Thank you for giving such detailed specs!
John here love it this guy is telling you all inside thought and what the motor should and can do.
Now this is my kinda engine Finn! I've got a ~550hp iron-headed Boss 302 in my Maverick and I love pure N/A horsepower!
Killer build. My grandpa was the corporate pilot for Brodix. And PBR before them.
Excellent upload! You got too love the 454ci power plant! Amazing numbers in the end.
I'm an old-school Mopar guy, and appreciate this video!
Thank you for staying with the public and making videos.
Stock Brodix heads? Isn't that like saying "off the shelf SR-71"?
Like the very top shelf that is normal folks can’t reach.....
He might have ment the heads haven't been messed with, ported, different valve springs, ect.
I work at brodix, it's pretty cool. I deck the heads and run intakes
😝
Amused. Are you referring to the SR-71 Blackbird manufactured by Lockheed Martin, the badass Cold War Strato-jet? Did the joke go over everyone else’s head? Lollollollollollol
Nice project. Real all motor. Keep up the good work
Amazing. Love the ending where you list all the parts.
Man I love this channel!!
This is a product shill video. Take it with a grain of salt.
@@ChrisJohnson-nc1yi l.
that would look great in my '55 chevy truck, lots of numbers being thrown out there!
Faster with finnegan is the best show I've seen in a long time good work my friend you said it was going to be a banger you delivered every Show keep making I'll keep watching #fasterwithfinegan
The words... "No expense spared"... come to mind RE this build... Nice piece.
That's impressive!! nice engine would like to hear more of the engine running
Ok I was excited about a high hp na engine and ended up watching a distributor video
Explained a fair amount of combination along with jamming a dizzy. Not quite click bait, but more dyno/jet boat activity would have been nice. Guess there’s a real conflict of interest between certain knobs on a producers level preventing all that.
This video sucked. They made it seem like it was a full on engine build video
@Fail Zero - Destroy the CCP Do you even know what distributor is puss pants!?
@memba berry normal aspirated not non. non would not work well at all. lol
@@paulk5311 NATURALLY aspirated. But your point is still a very important one. I wonder if Dingle Berry himself has made that kind of NA horsepower or if he's just regurgitating some rhetoric like a liberal lemming. (Tit for tat Mamba Berry)
Whoa! In the words of Tony Angelo, "...that thing is BURLY!!"
Your an engine wizard. That would be one wicked engine to have here in Aus in a daily driver.
Couple of SR20 cylinder heads will pull a premium a week before Race Wars.
I fucking laghed while texting this
Wow😂
Hahahaha nice
Congratulations Finnegan! I'm happy for you- lot's of work and tough decisions. Looks like it paid off and will last.
That's it. That much power that will last and last and ...
The distributor can not be verified that its engaged to oil pump shaft by twisting on rotor !!! No way no how. The only thing that shows you is that it's engaged to cam gear period. The only way to know the oil pump shaft is engaged to the distributor is to watch it drop while distributor is in motor turn the cam by hand, or assembled motor that you turn the cam by way of crankshaft rotation and watch it drop.
GREAT VIDEO MIKE!!!! ONE OF MY FAVORITE BUILDS!!!! GREAT EDUCATION AS WELL. THANKS FOR SHARING!!!!
Awesome work.
What's up I'm Tom Finnegan. Love your CHANNEL ❤️ Brother!!!! ☘️
Power to weight ratio.....wicked Dollars to power ratio.......EPIC! Lol great build guys
You could be right but that was not mentioned in the video.
Being from Mena, Ar it's always good to see Brodix stuff!
Amazing work Mike Beautiful build Wish I had your mechanical knowledge
Props to Slick Rick. His design work for Brodix has revolutionized BBC motors. Can't blame Dart for copying them. The SR in SR-20 stands for 'Slick Rick'.

Man I am always impressed by Brodix heads, no fancy CFM marketing they just bring the business.
@@AEON. they probably have a mountain of head castings where they chopped, welded and did all kind of things to them
I'm sorry, but that's the most odd thing I've read in months. No fancy CFM numbers? They post CFM numbers on EVERYTHING, and I've stopped using Brodix heads as I was fed up with them not flowing what they promised. I have made so many calls and have had heads sent back and forth so many times it became ridiculous, over the years. I don't know the SR20 heads, and I know Brodix heads can be made to work well, so won't comment on those, but I am absolutely done with stock Brodix heads. You can say what you will about Tony Mamo and AFR, but the heads does as advertised.
@@AB-80X did the Brodix make the numbers that count though, dyno, et's? Can't race a flow bench which was kinda my point.
Finnegan you are awesome! Been keeping up with you since Mintrukin magazine!
This is great content. I always loved roadkill but it left me with the sense that Dave and Mike never use their skills. This show, Roadkill garage, engine masters correct that for me. Thanks Mike.
You had me onboard until you mentioned C.R. 😳 I still love that Monster tho.😍🤘🇺🇸
THESE ENGINES ARE SO OVER BUILT THEY CAN BE UPGRADED TO PRODUCE A HUGE AMOUNT OF POWER WOW GOOD LUCK WITH THE BUILD. BILLIANT VIDEO
That’s so awesome Finn when the moter gets in the boat and it runs in the water for the first time please share a video on ur show
Very cool. You obviously know your stuff. Good job! Be safe!
When measuring your stuff. It's always best to draw a picture. I do it all the time when building duct work for hvac equipment
I love those cam specs! Its using a Honda crankshaft for a cam 😂. Awesome engine man.
the cam specs are not that crazy this thing will barely crack 100hp per liter. with all that displacement (9 liters) you better get 1000hp. Same cam specs on a small ass honda motor promotes enough air flow for 180-205 hp per liter means a 2.5 liter engine makes about half the HP at less than a third of the displacement www.superstreetonline.com/how-to/engine/518-hp-4piston-racing-drag-spec-k24/ don't like hondas and wouldn't build one (not my cup of tea) but don't kid yourself and lose perspective.
@@CP110 www.vocabulary.com/dictionary/pretentious
@@CP110 So you're comparing apples and oranges. They have to be comparable which these two are not. When you compare an engine that is being mastered and taken to it's zenith to an engine that is just basically an off the shelf piece there is going to be a considerable chasm between their performance. Poor comparison by any standard.
@@CP110 This engine made 1000hp at 6800rpm. That 2.5l Honda made 500hp at 9500rpm. Also, this engine will probably last hundreds of thousands of miles with normal maintenance. That Honda engine is a race spec design that probably has to be rebuilt every few thousand miles at most. I hope you understand these differences and why they make these engines incomparable.
he used a death metal misfire cam.
That's a big ol cam. Beautiful setup I'm definitely jealous
I need that for my 84 C10.1000 HP wow ! Great video
Solid lifters and no flippin Turbo,,,,,Absolutely right thing....👍
You're welcome for introducing you to the engine. Oh wait. Different Boshears
This is incredible knowledge being given.
Very nice build. Talk about some nice power!!!
Higgins has a head and intake kit that I saw a video on. With stock heads it made 979 HP (na) on gasoline... Bolted to a small block ford.
9.5L engine making 1000hp NA, i'm impressed, going for a tiny 3.1L I4 with 300hp+ myself
Beautiful chevy engine. Work of art and it sounds beast
Nearly two horses per cube!! Naturally aspirated. Nice work!!
I feel pretty good about myself, i was able to understand and follow about 1/100th of Finnegans chinese talk about that engine!!!!!
Technical data to take away from this::: 1. BIG 2. BAD 3. POWERRRRRR!!!!!!
How are part names and simple mathematics Chinese

@J.C. Kohle I definitely learned drugs before calculus. Thankfully I did learn calculus though. And I finally found real life uses for geometry and calculus, only took me 34 years
@@ryanmalin I wasnt trying to be mean. My questions purpose was to convey away for him to have asked himself and maybe be able to understand the video better.
Me: that sounds badass Also me: *has no idea what he's talking about*
Learned more here than the last ten auto vids across many channels.
Finnigan knows best just remember that very knowledgeable and what a guy what a guy thanks for being you sir!!!!!
13:40 'Much like setting up a clutch throwout bearing' he says. Damn I just learned I was supposed to measure that.
Oh damn same. Well haven’t had any issues yet knock on wood haha
I would have used the bronze gear, for the roller billit cam.. glad I watched this video.. keep it up man. And please don’t sell out to motortrend on demand.
Yeah! Eff those guys! lol
You do realize that MTOD is behind a paywall because there is a fuck ton more production and staff. KZhead doesn’t pay well enough to fund that level of production. If you don’t like it then stop bitching about it. Just pay the couple of dollars a month and shut the fuck up.
As pointed out in the video you want the gear to be softer than the one on the cam Fred. It wasn't stated why. Maybe trivia, but still important because most amateurs don't realize it so maybe this will save someone a future mistake. Most if not all bronze alloys require they be run with hardened shafting or gearing depending on the situation. Brass is quite soft, bronze isn't. Because of the color they may look very close to being the same but they certainly aren't. I've got some that machines like 20-30C Rockwell hardened steel. Good engineering practice dictates you want the cheapest and/or most easily accessed part to be softer so it wears out first. I'd assume there were good reasons for not ordering the new one with a bronze gear or that model doesn't come with one.
@@mrthesquid fuck off get motor trends phallic object out of your mouth there are plenty of other you tube builders that make it work why not scale back the production and focus on the cars? No need for three camera cars with 10 dudes for audio and video and most of the hosts were journalists why can't they learn to edit video like Mike did?
@@christopherolszewski8710 You guys do realize he works for Motor trend right? This is one of the ways Mike makes money.
Sweet engine and I can't wait to hear it run
When building a stroker motor I always use a tall block as it has a thicker deck more room for a longer rod (less rod angle) and stronger piston as you were talking about before😃
I love how this had “stock” parts
Who ever thought they’d see Finnegan talking about SR20s? 😉
All that HP Na love you my man about time someone did this Buddy you frikin legend man
Your awesome love all the shows and info thanks Fin

@@Properformancenutritioncom That's what their parents are for..We want to see Horse Power!! ;)
What a beast! Nice build!
Excellent, good post.
High flow, high compression and lots of displacement. Pretty easy recipe.
No replacement for displacement amirite
Don't forget the magic ingredient...lots of money 😆
chris vinicombe that’s not an ingredient, that’s the name of the entire recipe 😭
Sounds simple, but some big $$ engines have flopped, with one item wrong.
Nah bro, didn't you see at the end? 1000 hp on a STOCK block and STOCK heads, no recipe here except what Chevy intended....
wanna hear the hearbreaker.. its not goin into your jet boat!!!, great job on that build man, pullin a thousand hp out of any engine safely is a challenge. keep up the great work same to 12volt dave, these vidjers are coming together rite proper, stay safe and take care
Not really hard at all when you have no rules or regulations to worry about.
@@darrenmcfeaters6683 he should install smog controls on it then test again rofl
Not bad for your first build brother! Lol great video !
I'm thinking carb motors will make a manufacturing comeback. I don't think we ever saw the true potential of carburettors. So good to see Holley continue their development.
I was watching drag racing on Fox this Labor day. Some of those cars were running 900 cubic inch engines. That's insane. But...Not as insane as Finnegan is looking older. This aging thing has gotta stop.
View This No kidding. Remember when a 632” was huge and exotic? Remember when a 3 stage nitrous set up was insane? Now there’s 900+ inch motors with 5 kits on them. What a great time to be a car guy.
@@MrCarnutbill67 After writing that comment, I looked on the internet, and there is one that's 1005.8 cubic inches, made by Sonny's Racing Engines, nicknamed "The Godfather. " YOWZA !!
@@ViewThis. that is also 2100 hp NA....THAT is insane!!!
@@1216jimmyz Those monsters belong in a Monster Truck, or a street truck to keep the Turbo Diesels in their place @ 5 mpg
I have a 572 but the guys that are running the numbers at the track are turbo reliable Street driven and decent gas mileage when you have your foot out of the pedal. Mine I have to drive real slow to get any gas mileage out of it. I ride a lot on the street and some at the track. But at least it's 87 octane pump gas.
Such an awesome build! I personally would love to have seen fuel injection and coil pack ignition. Any chance of an engine masters special with you and this motor with carby and dizzy vs fuel injection and coil pack ignition? P.s if you can make that happen ill buy more shirts ;)
Nice Rundown, much obliged.
beautiful engine.great info great job!!!
Wish you where up north I could show you mud racing and a NA 598 making 1700hp on methanal
🤔 I'm imagining this in my XJ... I've always wanted to see a unibody XJ wrinkle like a beer can against my forehead 😅
Literally destroying your drivetrain the moment you put it in gear 🤣
Thank you for not suckering me into a separate video to see the actual Dyno results.
Nice build. Wish you would have had some footage of your friend ripping around in his jet boat. I bet it's a wild ride. Cheers~
finnegan, go help cleetus install his distributor 😂 think he messed up
The Irony - Just watched Cleetus do this wrong on Toast
me too lol.
and then ceased and stripped the distributor drive, backfired and bent 4 valves ....
I’d be machining a spacer piece to fill the gap just to be sure.
Was thinking the same thing. And Finnegan is making the HP N/A.
Funny. last night I did too. Wish I had the cash and sponsorship to play on this level.
Wow I'm impressed more power then a demon without a blower and anything complicated for Installing it into anything u want.
Now thats a Big Block motor right there, what a build ...
Over 1000+hp NATURALLY ASPIRATED.. WOW...
But 1010 hp STP unfortunately. So 970 in the real world.
Ask brodix to sponsor the new truck
This is why I love american v8 muscle (I'm a chevy man) simplicity, stout, truck load of torque and a mountain of HP 💯💖👌 all in a small package
Nicely done Finnegan what a beast bruh!
