  • BIG BANG HEMI TEST-ULTIMATE STRESS TEST! HOW MUCH BOOST? HOW MUCH POWER CAN WE MAKE WITH A STOCK BOTTOM END 5.7L HEMI? WE ALL KNOW THEY HAVE WEAK PISTONS. SHOULD WE TAKE IT EASY ON THE BOOST? DO THEY BREAK AT 10 PSI, 15 PSI OR 20 PSI? HOW MUCH POWER IS THAT?

    I love how he said "the pistons will break long before 1000hp" then it turned 1100hp. It did hurt it in the end. But it could have done 800-900hp reliably

    You're nailing it Richard. Very nice. Occasionally you're touching on a direction that really has most of us wanting more. Horsepower and how much can you get...now add another target of information like going all out with available bolt-ons, showing cost and possibly limiting your builds to "streetable" like idle quality, vacuum and pump gas with octane boost to something like 97 to 100 octane. Maybe showing a little lower rpm loading with the dyno. Build it and boost it until it breaks.

Your video's are amazing, and you are doing an incredible job dispelling all of the myths out there. One last thing, the Hemi with the most issues are the 6.4 not the 5.7 due to the tighter tolerances from the factory.

      @@rssdefensecorp8756 Depends on the power level you want. Specifically talking about the 5.7 Hemis only, there have been some issues with lifters seizing up that can eat up the valvetrain. And at least on the earlier models, the rods don't appear to hold up all that well when you start pumping the power up. Obviously I've got customers that have proven they _can_ make big power, but none that have pushed as far as the LS guys have on stock rods. AFAIC, its cool to say "I made 1000 hp on stock rods/pistons", but you're still rolling the dice whether its Ford, GM or Chevy if you're gonna run that on a daily basis.

      It will if you don't pull it out and gap the rings and reinstall...
      I'll go one further the reason the secondary ring land failed is that it had to much back pressure on it ( like having cats boosted often does to stock cast pistons), that's why he lamented not having back pressure readings on it because he knows that probably caused the failure to much thru that hot side...
      The end gap problems of the stock hemi making it unable to hold the power of its competitors, is aggrevated by the thin crown area putting more heat to the top ring and lowers the stock boost you can safely run...its also why he opened them up to .030-.032 vs the standard .028 he usually does....
      Its not a bad design its a bad design for boost as it comes is all....its actually a long wearing good NA design....

    Gap and a dual Torqstorm kit! Centrifugal keeps the bottom end torque manageable.

    I vote for a second test on an 09+ 5.7. Lots more ram owners with the gen 4 body style trucks do major mods than the gen 3 trucks.

    I love turbocharging. I have a 2001 Cherokee 4.0 with a mild comp cam, Edelbrock head, a modified '96 intake, air to water intercooler and headers. I ran up to 12psi in it on 93 octane fuel. Even with 35" tires and 4.10 gears it pulls like freight train. I estimate it is 470 ft lbs and 425 hp at peak right now. I am thinking about going with a bigger precision turbo just so I am not near the limit of the turbo.

      I bet your more than that. Just an assumption but 12psi on a 4L anything should be more than 400+ horsepower. With all the aftermarket top end parts to boot

    I’d like to see a Big Bang on a stock block/crank with one of forged piston “drop in” kits that are available for the Gen 3. My reasoning is that it’s the middle ground between the low-buck ‘open the ring gaps and pray’ approach and the high-dollar full custom rebuild approach. I also think it’s the way the average Hemi swapping guy would set out to seriously compete with the LS swapping guys. It’s also the way a guy with a modern Charger, Challenger, or Grand Cherokee who wants to hang an aftermarket supercharger and develop more than 8 PSI would go.

    That combination is really practical in NA form. Torque bubble from 4000 to 6000. That's as good as it gets. Run it!

  • @oliverscorsim
    @oliverscorsim Před 3 lety +2

    I gotta be honest IV been very lucky at finding easy power in all the 90s to now mopar stuff even the 2.0 sohc inline 4 was pretty cake to get 250hp out of na and the power techs that seats fall out of also I had a 4.7 that was awesome with a headers, ported heads, cam, intake, and a tune. don't think it ever went on the dyno but it went sideways awesome in my dakota. Great vid man would love to see one of the over head cam motors big banged put a few together but nothing fun. Although they look like they could be.

    @Hoppedup_garage Před 3 lety +1

    Love the turbo testing. I have an idea, I’ve seen testing with like dual exhaust vs single and all that. But what about exhaust/muffler testing post turbo. Like stock 2500hd 6l muffler vs straight through maybe 3” vs 4” at the high hp levels. I have a 4” in my turbhoe but I had to “clearance” it in a few spots so I have thought about 4” dp to dual 3 or 3.5”.

  • @sugar69711

    Out of curiosity on a 6.1 hemi out of 2006 magnum srt8 where would you have the ring gap set to?

  • @Riptidevulture
    @Riptidevulture Před 3 lety +3

    Truly that is a great engine. Now what would you expect from it with forged pistons, connecting rods; lowered compression to around 9.5:1 BUT a boost level over 30 PSI. Just curious lol.

  • @garymathews4042

  • @basscube5
    @basscube5 Před 3 lety

    Awesome content as usual! Bit of a broad question here, in your experience - what kind of timing are these hemis looking for at WOT and 0PSI? ~24-26 like the LS or mid 30s like the older stuff?

  • @stevenbalusik8997

  • @lloydholt6511
    @lloydholt6511 Před 3 lety +1

    Mane a better piston(forged) with more compression and definitely a much better rod with twin turbos. Experiment some with larger camshafts? Change oil pump to one from a hellcat? Great test as always you make us think about possibilities. Thanks for your videos.

    Stage 6 Motorsports here in Jax, FL has built SRT8 Hemi's over 1,000 horsepower for a while now. Very impressive numbers for the 5.7 :-)

      There was a very nice SRT 8 LS swap at LS fest. He said the hemi just couldn't handle the boost so he LS swapped it..

  • @michelerjgross7339
    @michelerjgross7339 Před 3 lety

    I think your right Richard I think it was the strength issue because it broke in between the first and second rings I’m thinking and I know this from nitrous and turbo use in other engines that if it breaks from boost or nitrous ie the heat added from the power adder it’s usually started the death of the piston near the top land and crown area of the piston usually breaks and not melts

  • @jmack7351
    @jmack7351 Před 3 lety +3

    like to see how well 392 with its factory piston, could hold up. 09 and up 5.7 would be cool to see with factory eagle heads too

  • @brettanderson6743
    @brettanderson6743 Před 3 lety +1

    I'm really impressed with the gains at 11.8 psi boost. Definitely a good design in regards to HP potential.
    I do wonder what the factory did to alleviate this problem in the factory supercharged hemis.
    Maybe this should be the next big bang engine!

    • @ghostrt1608
      @ghostrt1608 Před 3 lety

      @Brett Anderson ...those 6.2 supercharged Hemi engines have stronger bottom ends stock from the factory, compared to a stock 5.7 bottom end

  • @johnboticki9154

    Formula held exactly for the low boost run, and was pretty close on the 20psi run. Awesome.

  • @magius231

  • @lukearnold23

    Great vid except do the Big Bang hemi again with TT for even comparison just to see the possible numbers. Also old big block mopar Big Bang would be sweet to see too

  • @rebekahm4919
    @rebekahm4919 Před 3 lety

    It just goes to show you how under rated the late model hemi s are i class them just as good as a gen 3 the only thing is not as many parts available for them as a chev . But be interesting to see a good set of rods and pistons and new camshaft and same heads . Im thinking you could get an easy 1500 hp number . If not more . Thanks richard another great video .

  • @The_Performance_Laboratory

    those dual plug engines need very little spark advance, so 18 degrees seems like a lot, at that boost/IATs.
