Hell yeah brother, you're on the please before on YouTube channel. All right guys. Today Leroy gets his new motor so we can go on our quest for sixes. So every time we got down to a 7-0 this thing would bend the rods.

Now we've got a new motor over here that Pete Harrell himself built. Look at all this. Freedom they told me they said you're gonna need bigger turbos Bud Sounds like this motor is good for whatever we can throw at it. We got mastheads LSX blocks.

It's what Leroy needed. It's just all matter if we can put it to the ground. but I'm gonna give you guys a time lapse of swapping them out. Thank you Foreign thank you thank you Pete Harrell what the heck are you doing down here in Florida No I just wandered down here.

Yeah, yeah well. we got a Leroy and we got a Pete Harrell engine in it now, right? Yeah, that's pretty cool, right? First time ever. How much power are we working with now I don't know. Depends how hard we push these little little spinny things.

Yeah, it's adjustable all right. Well give us a rundown on the engine because I didn't take delivery of it Zach just slapped it right in when it got here while I was at the airplane race. so it's it's still an LS Yeah, it was before original block, same block. That's the same.

We stuck with Cathedral Port heads because your intake was Cathedral Port so it stayed that way. but the heads are probably bigger and better. We showed them the mastheads. yeah, those are pretty nasty heads.

They're Mast heads and they should. They're just they're they're big for Cathedral foreheads okay and then uh, we de-stroked it with the plan on turning it more RPM out of 427 anymore. What's it down to I think it's like a 392. Okay, so that's interesting.

Basically bore that it was, but real high. RPM is what we're going for. We're going to turn this thing more and how much RPM are you wanting to turn it? Well, we'll see what we need to, but it's you know. if we need to go nine, we can.

All right 9000 RPM Man, it's the new shift point. Maybe we'll see. All right? Yeah, well. these clutches like RPM the clutches love high RPMs That's right, that's why we did this.

All right. Sweet. We were bending rods and stuff before. What kind of rods and pistons do we have now? So it's got Cali's enforcer rods which is their huge I-beam big Power Steel Rod Okay, Pistons or Wiseco okay, um, custom the way we yeah, we do a lot of Motors similar to this.

Okay, you said they got the coating on them so we got to break it in, change the oil, and then hop on the dyno right? The coating is abradable. it wears in and goes straight in your oil filter. So we got to swap all that out and then we'll be good. Okay, sounds good.

Crank is Callie's nice. Well, Zach's under here putting some counterweights on our clutch. so when we hop on the dyno, the clutch won't try to slip like it's designed to slip at the drag strip. so we'll get that dialed in.
We'll fire this thing up, warm it up. by the way. Love the paint Scheme on the engine. That's got to be worth an extra 200 horsepower.

My calculations are right, at least 200. Yeah, for sure. Clean. I Mean look at that.

the Stars on there. We should have got the motor plate painted too. You ready to make a lot of clutch adjustments this weekend? You know it's been a hot minute. I Got the Pro Jacks loaded up so we can, you know, get them all picked up.

You're gonna be under this thing a little bit. Yeah, it's gonna be hot and it'll be worth it. Prince But it'll be worth it. Yeah, that's the idea Indians already guys.

we're plumbed up. We're ready to fire this thing off. All right. Zach You want to hit the key? Hit the starter.

All right. let me crack some lines running a little. Rich Right now. All right, no more 427.

Leroy Dude, we're under 400 cubic inches for the first time in Leroy's career. How weird is that? I mean Zeroy's always had a 427 so this is crazy. All right. Well FP do his thing, get it warmed up.

we'll go from there. We got a little pressure. It's good to be back in my Boy Leroy dude I Haven't drag racing a while I was just looking my racing suits like Dusty Oh my man I got a dust this thing oh wow that clutches I think it's gonna make. So here's the thing.

We can't make a big dog pole with this place. Yeah very. We'll kill it. There's Leroy on the Dino Brother Fire me up! This one of my favorite things of all time.

Love the way this car sounds I Don't know why it's always sounded so cool just because it's Leroy So we're on a Dyno making light poles. We're gonna make one little baby pull right here and then we're gonna change the oil. So the baby pull is to get whatever coating is on these. Pistons It's like magic dust.

get a little bit of heat in the motor Shut It Down Go to lunch, change the oil and then we'll start making some real pulls. Partial Rip 5 000 RPM Leroy doesn't know partial brother. It's going to be hard to contain it. It's all right.

He'll do it all right. Yeah, let's go Leroy Sounding Goods down a nice little 580 horsepower Oh Leroy don't want no man. oh baby doesn't sound good. It's a little wound up hard to stop him, you know I know what do you know Leroy's spraying oil out of a turbo.

Yeah, you know. another thing we're going for 6 000 ish. Okay, just easing into it, man. easing into it.

He's just breaking her in, huh? Yeah, Yeah, well it's It's different when you have the engine builder here in the shop with you. You know she's trying to send it when they're not here. but he's watching us like he's like right there. Yeah, he came down here specifically for this reason.

Foreign just fart out 800 horsepower. literally farted that I mean too easy. that was to the floor so that's all she had on the gate right and I went 6 500 I saw on the dash I only added 500 gold you told me I'm scared for our clutch's life. Last time we were on the dyno, we ruined that thing here.
Foreign. So what do you want me to do? 8 500 next poll. Well, we'll just go eight years old. Okay, not going too crazy.

All right, All right. Pete's pretty happy with everything I guess right? Pete Oh yeah, looking good. So what we're going to do is add a little bit of boost. We got like six pounds of Dome pressure on the wastegate so hopefully it makes maybe eight pounds of boost 10 pounds.

but I just want to make sure the O2 is. Yeah, we had a little uh oxygen sensor issue, so put a fresh one in there. Hopefully that'll solve that. The wide band is reading a little weird on the air fuel ratio.

That's all good. Then we can try more, but we're gonna make sure we're good. Also going to test the Boost controller a little bit see if we can get some power out. Foreign? it's on Nine PSI on the dash.

9.79 with two pounds of boost. you're gonna add it in. now. it might have been 9.9 It only just says nine on the dash, right? Yeah, that's a significant Improvement Pete What do we do now? We'll put some little stacks on it now.

let's be done with this. It's scared for my clutch 9.4 pounds of boost. Easy calculations because if it made that much boost, it made about 950 horsepower. So you know we just multiply it by a hundred.

Whatever our Boost number is. So go ahead and put 50 pounds of boost on and make 5 000. exactly. And then we're good.

Easy math and then we're going 620. what the hell's going on over here Dude, we're trying to dino Leroy and we got a whole front end put on this room. You guys got a Blazer going on. Just uh.

it's putting it back together. Whole new front end, a couple more down there. Nice zip zip tied into some new headlights. Okay, and do we have a bigger supercharger pulley up here? So the same pulley on it that it had when it won FL 2K last year.

Okay, all right so we're ready for FL 2K Threadies will ever be I mean a stallion? It won the last one. There's almost no chance it doesn't win this one. So we got the 950 class for this also. dude I Bought a tech card for the 1050 class for Neighbors.

So we're gonna be racing like 12 cars, you know? Dude? I Figured we just got to be ready for every class so we don't have to sit around at all. Yeah, that's not gonna be a lot of sitting around I know. So we got streetcar class with McFlurry 950 class. There's 1050 class of that extreme 28 with mullet stick shift with Leroy James what are you running your car in the No Time class for the 240? So I mean yeah I Want to go wrong.

It's just going to be a freaking live action weekend at FL 2K How much boost are we going for? All right? 15. we made 9.4 and made 970 horsepower. So 15. should make about 15 000 horsepower foreign.

Yeah, that makes me feel better. So the drive shaft is just right with the motor the whole way. Okay, so we didn't kill the clutch right? We just tore these up. Suckers are not looking good after that.
They are at the wear bars so we're probably gonna some Freshies on for the weekend, right? Curious how much boost that was because it sounded like 50. the way it lit up 17 and a half. 17 and a half but it only did that for just a little bit Yeah a split second. That was pretty sweet dude.

17 pounds of boost 8300 New record. You know the deal all right. Well that's cool guys. We're pulling this off the dyno Yeah buddy.

Rocky back at the track. All right guys. Well George is in the 9 of 50 class at FL 2K so we have to slow the Blazer down from its normal eight through 9.50 or slow should be as close five the one. as close to 950 as we can get it all right.

Looking for that? 9.50 All right, okay, a little fast 892 or 136. dude. I pulled so much out of it it's like a lot more. It's like the Blazer goes backwards.

you pull power out. it does a bigger wheelie I pulled a lot out 133 to the 60s I'll tell you it's best 60 foot in Hawaii I'm telling you you got to look at a laptop I pulled a lot out. All right, All right I pedaled it a little bit because it was it was Wheeling so we'll have to take a look and see what see what happens. Felt really good I pedaled that one time because it was fill it up there and I didn't want it to go too hot and then I lifted a little early because uh it was getting up there on the RPM So I just want to see where we're at.

Dude, he pedaled it nicely on that one. That was probably his best. Pedal job that was really good. We had to get good or we were going to swap out drivers.

Yeah dude, you're not supposed to go eight nine eight nine years. Let's go 950. that's my fault. Yeah, they're a good thing I Better Yeah one of your nicest pedal jobs.

We were just saying good job Oh wait on the tree. All right we got to practice that. do all of them. Come on brother Buddy, let me ask you something here.

Uh, are you ready to be banging gears in? Leo I am fired up dude with a fresh beat Harrell engine. That's right. I mean it's cooled down, the night is young. Leroy's has been watching the fun happen.

That's true. It's his turn that's right. Oh boy, it's been too long. the OG Bradenton Motorsports Park Corvette Oh my gosh brother, are you kidding me? 8 33 Thank you dude.

First pass out of hibernation dude 120 or 64. 498 at 141. he's gonna be happy. That's the first time in a long time that car's win anything to this year.

Gosh, here he comes! Leroy The Savage Let's go. Hey dude, that was nice. That was awesome. 498 at 144 to be solid.

First pass with the new engine boy. Dude that was awesome I know dude she went flying. That was the cleanest first pass for Leroy ever. ever.
Never that good out of the game. Dude always takes like four or five I know I can't I mean it went. It's so good job guys. That was solid.

All right. Shut the gates. That felt good to get that running. Yeah, you weren't ready, huh? You were right.

I was kind of wanted. Although you think you're gonna take this I mean really? I'm listening to this two-step going pow pow there's Fireballs I'm going I'm not convinced I let out the clutch. It looked so good when it's so straight. Gotta Love a stick shift data log.

You probably don't see those too often. 15 pounds of boost? that ain't nothing dude. All right. We got Leroy up on the stands and since you know B you don't tune clutch cars, what do you think we should do to the clutch? Just leave it for now.

Yeah, I'm gonna add power and slip a little more. Yeah, Zach we're gonna leave it. Just check it out. All right.

make sure it's dialed. What's good? Okay, we'll leave it and we'll revisit this after the next run. Going to the Eighth Mile Again, Okay, all right, no reason to go to the Quarter tonight. So sounds good? Yeah, and you're gonna floor it.

Yes sir. All right. fully dialed. Oh man, oh man, got his lights on.

There we go. Nice burnout for Leroy Oh my gosh, Oh 120 with a nine with a nine to the 60 foot and then it did that deal. It gets where something happens, everything gets pissed. but uh yeah, it was about to be sound aggressive.

They did that little Hopscotch thing. Yeah, it also was kind of ripping through the clutch I don't know if you guys can hear it's way louder. we could see it. it does to the clutch a little bit on the leave.

With the additional power we added, we need some some clutch. Yeah, tightening up the clutch slip a little bit. Yeah. I Still want 125 to the 60.

yeah, but it needs to hit earlier. So I think we need base turns? Yeah, there's a big delay between when I lift and it starts really pulling. So let's put like a full turn of Basin In all right, Georgie ready to hit the Blazer again. All right.

So ideally we don't do a big wheelie yeah and go a lot slower which is really weird. I'm trying to go slow. we might have too much boost, but we're gonna try and pull some more timing out see if we can get to do it. Well, we can't quite make it to the class to go faster, so we got to get in where we fit in.

Yeah, I know and we know it. Wheelies are only good on Race they do. Other photographers are here, but yeah I know you got no one here taking pictures. Trust me.

I didn't that see good thing I Didn't really trust that anymore because I pedaled otherwise usually I just floor it but not trust issues. we'll pull more out. I'll show you the laptop All right. George All I can say is hold on brother.

Wow. Hold on. All right. So if you guys understand tuning just a little bit, walk through this.
This map pulls timing out so it's pulling 20 degrees when he lets go to the trans brake. one second in the Run still pulling 11 degrees out of the base map so it's pulling, just power out, yanking it out, killing it. This doesn't stop it from doing a wheelie then like I don't know what will. It has never stopped it from Wheeling before, only the shift.

Dude you, you just dropped down. Driver Line down. Enough enough from you dude. Good luck.

All right. See on the top man. dude. Oh guys.

All right, no wheelie, no wheelie. Maybe a little one, but a baby wheelie. Remember 950 guys? Damn it dude. we're so bad at making things go slow guys.

just losing its mind. 8.95 at 153 on the deck. I mean the wheelie's gone. Dude? Yeah, the wheelie's gone.

We slowed down the 60 foot to a 148.. yeah, what are we gonna do? We gotta turn the Boost down fast. You want to know how good your tuners are? What you want to know how a phenomenal your tears are 950. guess what? It went 9 20.

890. thought it was 890. There's a 9-5 in there. Yeah yeah, we own a 950.

I was like listening way too fast. You just keep doing anything. Jackson and I got is under control. Okay, wait for our next stunt.

Yeah, you got a spare crankshaft. we're gonna figure something out. I Think you're gonna definitely have to lower the Boost Left the tune alone. Titan Clutch Perfect.

We're gonna see if that just gets it moving. bugging a little faster off the line, but you know. All right, it is making a lot of power so we just got to utilize it better with the clutch I think and then 748 at 182. nice foreign.

it just felt too damn good. Brother says it all. just let you know what it is. 118 60 foot 314 through the middle, 480 at 148 to a 748 a 182.

she loves it. Sounded like it was on half the booster roll for sure. Moments like these. uh, look at Leroy and I'm like dude, this car is so cool even with its tail light out.

314 at 3, 30. 480 flat on 148. 748 a 182 out the back. effortlessly.

Dude sneezed it out there almost faster I Know dude. All right, that's solid I Just gotta say Bud Great! great job on that clutch. Uh yeah, you know that math you did there? Yeah, you know, smoking? no cigarettes? it starts with back in my day. Yeah no kidding.

Big tire bars. We used to have changed our clutch on the way to work and on the way home. Overall that's Ripper thanks Pete Engine Works works great so we went a 740 on 20 pounds boost I Feel like we have some good data to go into Fl2k and have a capable seven second car? Yeah and uh, hopefully we just put it to work and compete with all the six seconds to cars that are coming. We'll do our best as always.

Leroy You know he just is a champion. So get out there, do what we can. but that's it for now. Thanks for watching new For example, freaking see you later calling them already.
This is uh Ryan H from Dresden Ohio last day double call. it's the last one Dude, come on. Ryan Oh there you are Ryan Dude, what's up? No freaking way. Well I'm really glad you answered Buddy I Mean you already know what this call is about.

You're the winner of the last Xrt Buddy? Yes sir, Yes sir. I'm glad you picked up if anything. Yeah I know I know we just didn't have video for yesterday. so I'm calling you today.

Well now you got an Xrt to go with your air freshener. Dude Perfect All right Thanks Buddy! Be there in a couple days. See ya bye All right guys! Good long video but that's it for today.
