kinda interested in the v4

 

The V12 is quite interesting!
An LS based V6 would be cool as well!

 

Well one of the local engines with an LQ9 on boost was approaching 700whp but yeah the body is starting to give in at that point. Stress cracks in the A-pillars lol.

 

The 2014 Chevy trucks have a Gen V-based V6 as the base engine. What I'd like is an LS straight 6. I've heard that land speed racers have adapted LS heads for either 292 or 302 GMC blocks. I think the bore spacing is the same.

 

Need more pics of the welds...

 

I wonder how different tuning is also for a V-12.

 

lol?

This is badass!

 

Very interesting.

 

It's not a matter of the crank balance, it's that the firing order isn't evened out across the block. The project is awesome, but I'm worried it will shake itself apart without either balancing shafts or a custom crank. Do you know how many miles are on teh Suburban engine now?

And the 90-degree bank angle is fine for a V12. The angle should be some multiple of 360/# of cylinders. Most V12s are 60 degrees, but 90 works too (as long as the crank is designed correctly).

 

Please make a 612 CI V12 using AFR heads and a FAST.

 

Awesome build!
Please make a video walk around. It would certainly put to rest those skeptics (myself included).

Also, why v12? It seems like v16 would be 100 times easier. You could leave the heads alone and just weld up the blocks. Also the head gaskets wouldn't have to cross your welds, which seems like a giant flaw in your design now. Are you planning on re-machining the entire head gasket surfaces on the block and heads?

 

Also can you hack two 122 Maggies together to put on top of that thing?

 

Hmmmm.seattle area,wheres about.id love to come see this beast in person since im ten min from downtown

 

Hmmmm. V4 based on a 4.8L....2400cc Motorcycle engine

 

very cool project.
i can't imagine the amount of work that goes in to this to get it perfect.

 

This is so awesome! Can't wait to here this beast
subin'

 

u should cut and modify 2 edelbrock vr intakes with 4 barrel throttle bodies. hp should go up to 800 to 1000 if u mod a good cam like a m4

 

swap out that intake maifold for some individual throttle bodies.

 

I'm gonna have to see a video of this before I believe it.

 

Holy subscribed!

I am going to be watching this thing for sure!
