Stock 5.7L w/ 15lbs of BOOST!

5.7L 345 V8 is Boost Engine? In this we will see how much boost a 5.7L V8 hemi can run without forging the pistons & rods (bottom end). The 5.7L has a 10.5:1 compression & is said to be only able to run 7-8lbs of boost. The 5.7L 345 & 6.4L 392 V8 Hemi haven't been known for being great boost engines. This shows how much boost can you run on stock 5.7L 345 V8 Hemi using a supercharger or turbo.

Thanks for showcasing Shake ‘N’ Bake one more time! Had a blast hanging out and just being us. What you get on video is who we are. Can’t wait till ya get Big Blue back brother! Hope to get down maybe one more time this year and hang out!

Modern Red Hemi is doing some big things! Hope he keeps showcasing just how great the 5.7L Hemi can is

[kenik]

Once again proving how underrated the 5.7 is.👍🏿

Big Don is definitely a heartbreaker at the strip. He also seems to be a hell of a guy too. Been following him since I came to visit.

The 5.7L hemi is a great platform, that's just amazing 15lbs of boost! that is crazy stock Rods & pistons ect ...a excellent view sure luv these Mopar, s. It's a R/T life isn't it! Lol Cheers Bud.🤝🏼✌🏼

Man that’s a lot of boost. Saving the trans is one thing, con rods, pistons etc is another. But hey that’s just what I’ve read on forums. If he can make it work reliably over time, we’ll the proof is in the pudding. I bet he has a plan though if stuff starts breaking!

The most impressive thing about Dons car is the stock transmission is still holding up.

[garyfuller]

Love that Shake and Bake! Great video, again.

[BanditTA]

That's crazy. Very impressive 5.7!

[IjohnnyproI]

It’s very interesting watching his channel. So glad you two had a chance to meet up.

[stevealoia]

PS your my 5.7 Hero’s peace Brothers

Don is the Captain Kirk of the 5.7’s. Going where no man has gone before!

[Lauria]

Great seeing you and Shake and Bake together at the shootout. Such an incredible 5.7

The stock bottom end in the gen iii/iv hemi is rock solid. You just gotta gap it right and build the motor correctly. Lots of math and proper machining required.

[Mopars]

Also running 14psi on my 5.7 stock bottom end, daily driven no issues. Car runs low 7 60-130s full weight, 93 with meth injection.

[hellcatredeye-g]

Wow that’s pretty amazing.. I know you can get good horsepower out of a hemi 5.7 but That’s pretty impressive 👍👍

[mr.ededdeddie]

Haters going 2 hate bro, you do you, thanks for showing the 5.7 some love

[taxinator]

The hate makes no sense, love the build! Imagine if the 6.4 pistons were designed similar to the 5.7 pistons…we’d probably see more 6.4 forced induction builds.

[johncoleman]

The pistons in the 5.7l hemi are skirt coated and aluminum. They can last under 15psi but won't last forever. The rods are a little better than the pistons. I would not be afraid to run 8psi with an excellent tune, but I would never exceed that amount lol. . . Also, I do agree that centrifugal is the route to go, otherwise other modifications may be necessary.

[DragRacingandCarStuff]

Great video. That's a sweet car; glad you told me about it! Very impressive what the stock bottom end can hold. Looking forwards to editing what I got (dam I need to go back on a diet 😂).
