Small Block Chevy on the DYNO - 350 SBC Blast

You just can't beat the simplicity and reliability of a small block Chevy. 🇺🇸💯

I love watching Nick run around like a mad man. Many of us can relate to that mentality. Cheers my Canadian brothers 🍻.

Can't wait until George's inline-6 engine runs on Nick's Dyno. I'm also a big GM and Ford engine fan.

Mopar guy here. Just finished building my 440. Runs great. I also freshened up my 340 and it too runs great. My cousin drove his 87 Chevy truck in the shop. And we pulled the 305 and dropped in a built 350. A week later he drove it home. Everything seems to be good and it makes good power. I have only helped on a few Chevies and this one went together really easy. It might be that it had the hood, grill and fenders off when he brought it. With the air gap intake and 4150 Edelbrock 750 carb along with the aluminum heads and almost .500 lift cam it looked really nice. Chrome valve covers and red wires. I think I will send him this video. He should get a kick out of it. Thanks Nick sending a big “hey” from Kannapolis NC.

I have a .040 over 350 sbc in my 1971 Landcruiser that I built in 1994. Still runs strong.

I had a 1975 Chevy truck and a 1070 Monte Carlo with 350’s in them I have also rebuilt a few for some people after retiring from the military in 2011 .. I helped one of my employees rebuild his 350

Nick, the Chevrolet 350 I owned was a 350 Vortec V8 in a ‘97 Chevrolet K1500 pickup. When I was young my parents owned a 327 V8 in a ‘64 Chevrolet Impala two door sport coupe.

I love the classic small block Chevy. I've rebuilt them, installed performance parts on them and pushed them to the limits, great engine.

No 350, but had a 60-over, de-stroked 327 with crane roller cam/kit, 13:1 pistons (240 compression). It held it's own against 500 BBCs on the dirt track.

That music in the background is just at the right level to almost not be discernible and actually sounds like an engine problem when it's idling.

Phil it's good to see you.. I always enjoy your added intellect with Nicks.. You guys make a great team.. this always brings me back to the old days of the 60's and 70's.. But you take it to the next step we never really could.. Carry on boys! and thanks.

I’m not a Chevy guy but I don’t mind their old small blocks. Simple and easy to work on, parts are cheap and plentiful. They’re not power monsters but they’re adequate and super reliable with just a little bit of maintenance.

I had a 327. Loved that engine. Chevy small blocks of the pre smog era were very good at making power. I'm a Mopar guy but i really respect small block Chevy's.

Hey guys, from Pittsburgh!! I owned a 1974 Z28 camaro once that was 350 powered. I bought it as an automatic, but later converted it to a 4 speed. I think this one will produce at least one horse per cube.

I had a 350 in my 71 blazer. I had to replace the camshaft sprocket when the plastic teeth came off. used a 57 cast iron gear and new chain. sold the rusted out truck with almost 200k on it. engine never burned a lot of oil or had any compression problems. it ran and ran. I have owned a 265, two 283s, 307,305, and 327. all gave good service. love your video

Got a 1928 Olds with a 72 lt 1 350 B&M 173 supercharger. It's been on the road since 1986 in this configuration. In the family since 1982.

Rebuilt 1 350 from a 1970 Impala. Could not get the distributor in time but someone else did finally. Had more ponies under the hood than it did.

I had a 70 1/2 Camaro RS in the mid to late 80's with a professionally built 350 with 11:1 compression, crower cam, holley 750 vacuum secondaies, holley street dominator intake, head work, was a beast, paired with a muncie rock crusher and 3:73 gears.
