  • The 13th episode of Engine Masters, presented by AMSOIL, is an unlucky one for a poor little 305ci Chevy small-block. It was the victim of our test of how much nitrous oxide power boost can be tolerated by a completely stock short-block with the original cast crank, rods, and pistons. Yeah, it ends badly, but before the engine's demise we learn a lot, showing you how nitrous oxide increases horsepower and giving you tips on how to use it safely on any engine. You'll also learn a pretty good power combo for a 305 Chevy! Engine Masters is supported by Mr. Gasket and Earl's Vapor Guard.

      yes, watched the whole thing it was interesting.... 1:18 "we have hopped it up a little bit it's got..." I liked the video, I just thought it was funny that he said it was bone stock, and then detailed a few things they upgraded on it.

      +jesondag those upgrades effect the horsepower and torque figures, but they don't, in any way, effect how durable it will be in nitrous.

    • @entropy156
      @entropy156 Před 7 lety +94

      ***** it is a stock bottom end...as stated in the video...and the bottom end parts are what nitrous breaks. That's the point of this video, in case you didn't actually watch it.

      305s aren't a bad engine at all. With a 3k budget a 305 is peppy .. not fast in a 3500lb street car but just a fun little efficient engine that can be had for cheap. Those heads are only like 1200 bucks.. that cam is only 279 bucks from jegs. 350 dollar intake and 500 dollar carb. That nitrous kit is the starter kit for any real racer and can be had for around 750 bucks. For under 5k you can have a reliable 450hp 305. People make fun of them but look at the abuse the Ford 302 takes..... Short stroke, big bore, same as 305. Not bad for any engine you can obtain for 350 bucks at any junkyard in the nation.

      well, since it is the expanding nitrogen that does most of the work. I.E. the burning fuel and oxigen heats the nitrogen and causes it to expand. since there are formulas to figgure out how much air you can force in with a blower, it would be close to the same, cause thats all you are realy doing with a shot of nos more oxigen and more nitrogen, same as a blower but without the moving parts.

    I'm a bit of a geek and have looked up tests of Amsoil against other oils, I would say that using Amsoil contributed to that engines ability to hold together as long as it did and make the power it was making.
    Unfortunately it is hideously expensive here in the UK, Castrol Edge is probably the best I've used, it burned less and the engine ran better while feeling more responsive and powerful. Edge costs over twice as much as a normal fully synthetic oil but is around half the price of Amsoil.

      stock internals do not represent horsepower, just durability, the impressive numbers were because of the upgraded cam, roller rockers, vortec heads, bigger intake and an 850 double pump carb, put forged internals in the short block and it would make the same numbers. but still was impressed with 358hp and that torque curve.

I ended up fading from the scene when computers come along. I guess I was intimidated Here I am at 64 years old and an old 66 Chevy II dragster fell into my lap about a month ago.

      aj johns+, he didnt claim it was bone stock and no this engine is not upgraded for nitrous use. its a mild street engine that RUNS ON PUMP GAS and uses pretty much all stock parts besides the cam/lifters. Obviously you know nothing about nitrous which is ok we all gotta learn but you didnt even care to watch the video and learn anything about it either. he talks about the benefits of forged internals in the vid so whats up with that. Properly upgrading an engine for nitrous would have included forged pistons, connecting rods, and crankshaft. along with a wider than stock piston ring gap. please think before you speak. thanks.

    I really don't understand the hate given towards 305 SBC's, they run smooth, can produce a decent amount of power even if it's a little low, but the real talents are how much fuel economy and mileage 305 cast iron small blocks are blessed with. 263,000 miles on my '92 Camaro's bone stock 305, runs like it's brand new, just warm her up a little and she's ready to rip!

    So it's salvageable? Guess that means a revisit with built bottom end.

      +cracklingice no it wasn't, they said this was a stock engine not meant for NOS at all.

      Short block does not equal budget build. Therefore this was the budget build.

      @cracklingice Před 7 lety +1

      And it wasn't a stock engine, it was just a stock short block. The cam and short block up are all aftermarket.

    Thank you David! I’m really glad I decided to rewatch this episode for this awesomesauce worth of information but, especially hearing you explain to all the window lickers that chose to call nitrous anything different!
