We Go No Prep Drag Racing with a 1,200 Horsepower Turbo LS Build [The Famous Beer Money Mustang!]
Vložit
- čas přidán 25. 07. 2024
- The Beer Money 1986 Mustang has been famous ever since it won the the first Horsepower Wars show. Since then it's been winning races on the no-prep circuit. But a blown engine put it out of commission.
But now we're following along as Harrell Engine and Dyno (www.hedisrad.com) builds a new LS3 based race engine that will be both lighter and make more power under boost. HED shows us all the tricks and we'll follow them to the track to see how they do.

Such a Great channel! love the detail in the builds, great for us engine nerds! appreciate it thanks!
Thanks for the kind words!
Yup
Dont let the "stock" and "standard" comments fool you. This is a very trick build. Love it!
Yeah, trick enough that "beer money" ain't even going to come close to building it!!!
Gotta love grudge racers. Car made “a thousand horsepower”. Yeah, at about 1/2 (or less) the boost they will be running and much lower RPM’s. Guessing this car should be good for 1500-1700 WHP.
Seen it in Virginia. Car is stupid fast. Dominated the field all day. Went to the finals and grenaded the rear. Tuff break. But won’t nothing running close to it.
Never have I ever cared about thrust bearing clearances, and I’ve had more than one pass on my builds! 400+ baby! 😜
"Yup" ,,, it's all the little things that keep an engine together ,,, when you put all that horsepower in it .... These guys have got every small detail that you can imagine ... I watched several your videos ... love you Channel ... thanks ... Dave ...
Thanks for the kind words, and thanks for watching!
Wow fast
No man ,,, that thing looks beautiful ... In all the right places ... D
Phenomenal engine builder..its all in the finer details..
WRONG!!!! It's all in the wallet!!!
Really like your narration of the engine builds. Only heard "billet" twice in the whole video.
It'd be great, if he sounded more natural, vs like he's reading everything out of a book in front of a classroom.
Ive been making copper gaskets for decades from hardware store roll stock, step down bit and a hole saw. Never thought to look for a company too make them
Best to have them cut with a waterjet or laser...
@@michaelangelo8001 Are you sure? This guy's been doing it for decades, and apparently doing just fine!! So why pay all that extra beer money to have someone else do the same thing you can do yourself?
@@Anarchy-Is-Liberty Well, I operate a machine shop, and I've seen the kind of results most people get from whittling things out by hand, far too often.
Do what you like, but I'm sticking with my original statement.
First actual, reality show success story.
Pete is a cool guy and a awesome engine builder and tuner the guy knows what he's doing that's for sure.
You are correct!
They are real good at doing stuff
Beautiful set of heads...
It’s concrete patch filler... the Hilti mix. thank me later
Do you have a part number?
@@claytonhaske 8008569420
Yes it is.
I just figured it was high strength concrete mix with epoxy and glass fibers like the concrete countertop stuff .
Awesome!! 👍🏻👍🏻
Awesome video!
Thanks a lot ! And thanks for watching
Seen beer money on fastest car .great fast car and great story for the driver also good to hear beer money is still out there whooping ass and taken names
From Canada 🇨🇦
Always like seeing that car
Love your videos! Keep it up
Hey, thanks a lot! And thanks for watching
Was at npk this year at darlington and that dam beer car was getting it done! Good job guys
Yeah, they had bad luck with the trans when I went with them to Darlington, but ever since they've been dominating. Thanks for watching!
Nice job guys love 10,000 dollars can’t beat it
Them guys can build some bad boys they know the ways around
Yep!!... it's called having a large wallet!!
Great Video!
Just got yourself a new Subscriber!!!
Awesome!
Keep the great videos coming 👌
Thanks a lot! Will do!
@@TheHorsepowerMonster just a suggestion but maybe do like a full engine build with torque specs ect
That car was in the netflix series the fastest car
Congrats... you watched the intro of this video...
that is one nice LS MOTOR
Nice car shit motor
@@ricktotz4078 🤣🤣🤣 nice motor. SHIT STANG🤣🤣
@@ricktotz4078 I know exactly what you mean. If it weren't for those shit motor Chevrolets people wouldn't see near as many fords in the winners circle. Thus there first on race day with a shit motor LOL.🤔🤔✌✌
Saw beer money on Fastest car...you guys were definitely faster than the McClaren and should have had the win. Too bad you were racing on that shitty track and lost traction. That car is BADASS!
Nice video. I like the voice over.
Thank you!
I want to see Beer Money vs Beater Bomb
Beater bomb is a bad boy
Lyle is a bad dude! I've been watching him race for years. Joey aka beater bomb is bad ass on street. It would be a hell of a race between the 2 on a track
My money is on beater bomb.
I want to say that Beater Bomb would win. But that's such a close race to call.
@@ConcussedGaming Lyle has put more money into it so she's faster than before..
I've seen that car. It's a beast!
Nice ! Can we get one built like that ?
No Coyote engines to be found lol!
Saw this car in Netflix
What a great build. Is the rear deck lid/trunk lock broken? Someone get them a trunk lock...I personally, am obsessed with the 1973 Chevrolet 4.125 bore.S.B.400! My brother had one that was worked by S&M machine shop. 11/1 compression... I could only imagine if the compression was lowered & boost added...
The lack of cooling really becomes understandable when you talk about the head lifting under boost! These engines have some big differences compared to street motors!
Another cracking build video!
Only thing that’s a bit off a bummer is! I’m running out if your videos!! As I’ve watched nearly all of them!!
Thanks! I wish it didn't take me so long to come out with new videos. I'm a slow editor!
@@TheHorsepowerMonster honestly bud! Quality takes time!
@@TheHorsepowerMonster honestly bud! Quality takes time!
This the first time ive heard of someone mention k1 amd strength 🤣
As an ANSOIL DIRECT JOBBER I’m glad to see them using AMSOIL SYNTHETIC LUBRICANTS
You have a little of everything on your channel as long as it hauls ass.
GM did their homework on the LS, as did Ford on the Coyote. Superior to any BMW, Mercedes or yes any Ferari or Maserati v8.
Coyote and LS are amazing platforms
I'd argue the 351W is better than the bmw and Mercedes v8 engines...did you see the 600+ hp and torque naturally aspirated pump gas Windsor build on this channel?
@@LanceAtlas
Yes, I did. Don’t dislike the Windsor at all - my first new car was a 5.0.
The parts coming out now are amazing. Look at what you can do with engines like Olds and Pontiac! Aluminum heads, roller cams, H-beam rods and Mahle pistons!
@@boston7704 yup, you can basically get amazing old school diy spec porting and header side combustion cupping off the shelf these days.
@@LanceAtlas
Agreed. I was stunned at how responsive older mills did with CNC porting, updated manifolds and carburetion.
Saw one clip of a 430 Lincoln motor that was doing 1+ hp per cubic inch on pump gas.
Unreal!
Heard the aluminum blocks don't hold up well with lots of boost. Hopefully that epoxy block fill keeps that engine together
How did they run the water to the heads?
Those rods
Which oil pan is that?
Great video :)
Thanks!
I need these guys to build an engine for my Mercedes benz cls 63 cause this engine is really a piece of ahit
What's the best concrete filler to use for a drag race motor
I'm so glad I found this channel. So cool for a car/racing nerd like me. Can't for the life of me figure out why someone would downvote you?? iM a FoRd GuY aNd ThIs Is A cHeVy BlOcK dErP
Thanks a lot ! And thanks for watching
I want to build a turbo ls. 1000hp for drag racing what ls motor should I look for ? And when I get it what's the first step?
Lyle Barnett and Doug from motion raceworks are mates go figure ..
Why use? Dewalt screw drive drill right amount of torque?
is the charge pipe stainless steel?
1200hp might get you through first, maybe second round!! Good luck the rest of the way!!
You obviously don't follow much racing in no-prep..........because Beer Money has not only been one of the most dominant cars, it's one of the most winning cars.
why is my college automotive class making me watch this?
That’s beer money
Very cool, kinda surprised they are running SS exhaust valves. Kinda expected inconel.
Methanol fuel burns fairly cool
HED is the best
Hello everyones I very good information video how to build a engine but dont know much about mechanic,
but someone please could explain me why they block the water imput in the engine with the gasket and in the cilynder head they welded and my questions is how the engine is cold down how the engine is refrigerated? any diagram how this method works
Regards.
The engine is run for a short period of time. Oil cooler is larger than normal. This makes the motor much stronger without the voids or the water jackets.
Lyle Barnett kicks ass love that dude such a humble dude that's not afraid to put his foot in it!
i been getting lucky on getting the ho 454 crate engines i found what u can get them out of so far i got 3 for free the last one had 6000 miles on it plus i get a bunch of stuff with it . i am building a 68 chevy pu for a street truck . the engine had steel crank heavy rods and pushrods high flow heads with a heavy duty 400 turbo heavy clutches bigger pump stage one shift kit runs 450 hp at 485 torque stock according to the paperwork on it then i get oil , power steering, trans coolers a twin electric fans then sold the left overs for 2000 bucks if it was a square body i could have used the radiator which i have a lot of just sitting .so u can say i save thousands on the build right now i have 800 in my 68 pu been offer up to 12,000 for it and it need the interior finished and final paint just did the dash came out sweet and the engine i made it look factory dun but updated with serpentine belt set up with flex fan and twin pusher fans did all the wiring myself through the hole truck fixed so much it was retarded some tweeker got a hold of it but did it right replaced the hole wire not pieced it in next project is a 79 z28 rs t top i got for free with 2 other z28's and i have another stroked 454 for it have the 400 turbo or a t 10 4 speed and 12 inch clutch and fly wheel all new got it for free too one car has new interior custom dun so i have everything to put it on the road for free just needs paint and nick nats but i can sell the left overs for good money even have a extra front clip i got for free in mint condition even the paint on it . the idea i have is to build it with no money out of pocket . also been building on the side a 70 high boy with a 390 dana 60/80 so far i have 250 bucks in it rust free nice body on it ranger with tool box on side
What’s the “top secret” block filler they used? I know they said it was epoxy but what was it?
The block filler looks like jb weld 😂
How many passes did that motor last
6 or 9
If it runs on methanol, it's not "beer money." Badass build though.
👍👍👍👍
Doesn't the piston top etching at 8:45 create hot spots?
This has to be the 5th time ive watched this. This is engine porn to the fullest.
Hey thanks!
Thats a TSP block and they do the block fill if im not mistaking so not a big secret there bud
Yep and TSP did all the work, I love how they are like, stock block, from a junk project just sitting in the corner that we sent out. Nah bruh you bought that bitch specd from TSP... Alot of bullshit in the build section.
@@themanthemyththelegend1392 they said it was sitting in the corner blown up
Anyone else notice installation of the cam and wrist pins with no assembly lube?
Wyles paints the cam bearings and the ID of the lifter bores with a brush and assembly lube before installing the cam and lifters.
@@TheHorsepowerMonster I saw that part. Even saw how he had the lifters soaked in oil. But the camshaft itself and the wrist pins he stuck em in dry. Yikes!!!!
Never under estimate any car by its looks alone
So can an engine with a filled block but water cooled heads able to live on something like drag week? I'd assume you could run oil squirters to help cooling the cylinders. I'm not knowledgeable on built engines like these.
I don't think a filled block would work on something like Drag Week, but I could be wrong. Like you mentioned, running oil squirters would help, as would burning methanol. I wonder if anyone has tried it?
@@TheHorsepowerMonsterI think I've heard of partially filled blocks on the street.
You can dry deck the block by sealing the water ports on the head and block. Then run water through the head and block separately. Safety of a dry deck and cooling
@@buiItnotbought i seen thats basically how Steve's lsx blocks are.
Andy, I run a 347 Windsor with a half filled block/ alloy heads on the street and never had cooling issues and I live in one of the hottest parts of Australia.
Just want to make sure you got a quality cooling system. 👍🏽
Beer money
Should’ve went 351W dart block with Jon Kaase heads would’ve stayed in the race and not have lost first round 🤷🏻♂️
Could have had a Top Fuel motor in it and it wouldn't have helped with the failing transmission.
DONT ACT LIKE A FORD ENGINE IS BETTER 🤣🤣🤣!!!!
These guys want to be big fish in a small pond.* Those mustangs with stroked and bored 460's back in the day were so cheap and reliable... You add proper nitrous preparation and you have a daily driver...
They're talking economy with all these mods? Darton inserts? His machinists must work for beer. Notice they don't want to put the time and speed in the title...Not honest at all how all their parts just kind of showed up off a "blown" engine. Check out the full weight Continental Mark III running 9's.
Totally different mindset.
Cheers 🍻
*⅛ miler... right.
You've got one poor attention span. THE TRANSMISSION SLIPPED IN 1ST & 2ND GEAR. THAT is why they lost. Had nothing to do with the motor. By the way: "WHO" just broke the world record ( all makes/models ) for manual/H-pattern stick 3 times in the same event ( FL2K22 ) with the current best of 6.61 @ 216 mph? Answer: Tick Performance with their old Camaro called Grubb Worm........the engine: A 1ST GEN CHEVY SMALL BLOCK @ 348 CUBIC INCHES. He was taking down big blocks with automatic transmissions in sudden grudge/money races, including Cleetus McFarland running his El Camino powered by a Steve Morris solid BB and automatic trans.
@@andykerr3803petes shop just built a sbc for me. They are crooks. They built it the way they wanted it and not how i paid them too. They also stole my old valve train from me. Worst experience ive had with sny business ever. Too many other problems to list here. I would have to write a book.
Mistake is the fire rings go in the head not the block. common mistake people make.
Darlington is the best track hands down!!!
Racing secrets??
Would you be willing to do these videos on import engines
Sure, I guess the problem is I don't run in the usual circles with the import crowd. Most of the builders in my area (Charlotte, NC) are making their bread in stock car racing, drag racing or old-school hot rods. I just don't see much import stuff, unfortunately.
@@TheHorsepowerMonster I have taken a lot of parts from various nascar engines in order to build a 2ARFE which is a ~162ci NA Camry 4cyl that when I finish I hope to pump ~380hp at 9500rpm. And no less than 300hp at 4500rpm. The build is still out at least a year unless funds fall in my lap theres more than a engine build to my life.
@@alexhise968 Good luck!
the shit in the block is belzona
We'll tell you everything....except cam timing. Lol
I also thought that was weird.
Missed the dyno ? Meaning not allowed to show hp numbers
WHO DOES YOUR HEAD PORTING?
These were CNC ported by Mast Motorsports. But when hand porting is required, Harrell Engine & Dyno does their own stuff.
@@TheHorsepowerMonster IM GOOD FRIENDS WITH THE GUY THAT DOES PAT MUSIS WORK AND ALSO ANDY JENSEN I CAN GET YOU IN TOUCH WITH HIM IF INTERESTED
First to say First
Surprised not using a CCW crank. Not much more than a good non CCW.
They put the cam in dry...
Not exactly. Wyles actually applies the assembly lube directly to the cam bearings with a brush before installing the cam. The idea behind why is actually interesting. If you apply the assembly lube to the cam journals, the leading journal gets a little lube rubbed off as it passes by each cam bearing and is just about dry by the time it gets to the back of the block. This prevents that. Thanks for watching.
@@TheHorsepowerMonster So the first bearing has the same thing happen, that is why you do both duh.
"Pretty standard stuff for a mild LS" lol most of us wouldn't be able to afford the block alone without selling both family cars
...and a couple of the kids!!!
@@Anarchy-Is-Liberty Yep for sure lol
With only 700hp
1200hp lol at what 3500rpm lol
That’s a lot nicer motor then what we went 4.29@167 with, lol
@@Boostismyfriend that is a piece of art for sure. I guess if you want to run it at 1500 you build it for 2000hp. Gonna follow this car for sure. It will hurt some feelings.
Go back and watch the 'Horsepower Wars $10k challenge' series on Power Automedia's channel if you haven't seen it, it's pretty great
I get it; We know some great products and parts but "FU" if we tried to help you 'commons' out our competition might learn some of our tricks. Or maybe they know even better solutions and will laugh at us.
Huh? The only thing they asked me not to share was the specs on the cam. Didn't think it was that big a deal.
Exactly
Using Buick engineering to make Chevy go fast.
And Buick used engineering from a swedish engineer from the WWII era. Amazing how engineering and inventions are shared and expanded over time.
@@Hammerback972 all auto manufacturers buy and sell others ideas and platform ie Buick’s 215 sold to Range Rover they ran for many years. Engineering is something to share great ideas unless you are Jeff bezo’s
O fuck . And here i figured it was done right but NNNOOOOO . Yet another ford with ls garbage...
Moving on
Why build that great engine and then stick a junk intake on it.
Never see videos about broken Ford blocks.
Never see Ford motors make enough power to break one.....
@@barnettld270 Ha Ha nice try. 1560hp from a 4.6 and no blow up videos.
So many are swapin to ls engines because they are cheap to build! Its a little different if you are running ford!
Even the new mustangs can be ls swapped and use everything up the guages. Ford figured since GM is just gonna borrow the platform again anyway might as well make them interchangable
@@brandona4618 borrow lol never seen a cathedral ford head of 6 bolts in a main.
DRY = CAM = DRY pins, DRY rings ! = dammed DRY DRY and where is the lube ! oil assemble stuff ? - does not look right to me = no wonder the other block broke !
You guys should keep your chevy engines in chevys. I'm sick of ls swapped cars.
dude, thats not a stock block. It has "Texas Speed and Performanc" stamped on it bigger than sheet. I know this didnt come of the factory line, fake ace sheet. Stopped watching at this point. If it's aftermarket, it isnt stock! BTW, you can make you fake argument that it has all stock dimensions.
Still a stock block. At some point Texas Speed did some machine work on it. They do that.
Settle down bro
CHINA
Are you learning some geography today?
Fk that LS swap bullshit. Can't you chevy guys find a chevy chassis to put that junk into?
Go ford Windsor much better motor . But If LS is all you can afford that’s too bad
Same bore, same stroke, same firing order and better heads. The LSX is the motor ford should have built. Its so similar to a Ford arguing the difference is actually pretty silly.
Winsor so great Ford stop making them...its been dead for over 4 decades !!!! Get out from under that
rock....no one racing with Winsor.
Coyote or bust for Ford fans.
@@Dauntless.steadfast.fortitude Four decades eh? 1980 is when the Windsor ended ? The 302 was in production until 2001. The 351 went until 1997 in trucks. And Ford racing still makes bothe engines. Ya know why? Because they are great.
@@philipmacduffie7612 ironic no one swaps winsors into GM but everyone
& their grandma swaps LS into everything & there's more LS swap
Ford Mustangs, Ford this, Ford that
Ford died hard swaps to LS...
Only way a pre Coyote beats a GM
is with a LX swap....cased closed
sorry Sir you don't see anyone swapping in winsors into GM
do ya ? That's why there's LS fest.
Winsor fest ??? You killing me with
your non sense. LS out breathe
Big block Chevy, big block Mopar, big block Ford & Modular 2v, 3v,
4v, even 4 cam Coyote. Have a great day & be well...
@@Dauntless.steadfast.fortitude the LSX is a popular swap because it's small, cheap, and has great stock head flow. That wasn't your argument. Your argument was that the Windsor is dead and the 5.0 4v is the only swap. That's nonsense.
Inbred car
Really an LS. Why is that the go to. Awe thats right its easy because thats why people race its easy. I'm sure John DeLorean, Carroll shelby, Steve saleen, and all the greats did this because it was easy. #shame your LS
Still puzzles me why people would put a chevy engine in a Stang. The 1200 number is easily attainable with a number of Ford engines that are just as easy and as cheap to build as the chevy engine. . And now with the 7.3 Godzilla engine that number is easy with not as many mods as the LS platform needs. The Mustang Barn is right down the road from me. And the owner makes a fortune doing engine swaps. He told me that there are more Coyote engines being swapped now than ever before. The price is a little lower now than swapping for a LS. Plus, as he said. The coyote is a better bullet.
