I'm impressed! When I first saw this build, I honestly didn't think it would look good. But now that it's coming together, I'm liking it more and more. You both do outstanding work! In Rust We Trust!

@NWvideo10 6 жыл бұрын

Great video presentation, all the camera angles make for a dynamic professional looking feature. The lighting was perfect also. Actually the video was done by a professional, good job! Beautiful car by the way! However IMHO, that poor old motor had a lot of its life removed without any coolant. The cylinder walls probably are blue and the rings have lost their temper. Also, without any added rpms, the cam and piston skirts had minimum lube applied. The heads may have a little twist here and there internally. I may be totally out to lunch on this observation, but my experience in buying 'dry run' eBay engines have proven otherwise. Anyway, 1963impala2dr, I am a huge fan and admire your work and life style. Great Vid!!!!!!

@1963impala2drWaylonWire 6 жыл бұрын

the engine was never allowed to get hot.. or even overly warm. I know it appears otherwise in the video but the engine was shut off for long periods of time between starts. people dont realize that I literally had hours of footage and it took me 6 hours over two days to edit it. remember we made a run to the parts store which took 40 minutes but only about 6 seconds in the video. Old Jim built racing engines for years and years. he knows the limits but you are certainly entitled to your opinion.

@johnwade5747 6 жыл бұрын

How are you cooling/lubing the mechanical seal in the water pump? How are the heads remaining cool ,as much as it has ran and been revved? I'm not picking on it..., I'm genuinely curious. I'm pretty sure the thermostat housing has no hose on it .I'd be scared that the heat would bring about loose valve seats due to the dissimilar metals of the heads and the seats,with no coolant

@1963impala2drWaylonWire 6 жыл бұрын

i know you're not picking on it and when I watch the video back.. I can see how it might appear to be enough run time for concern but its all done with smoke and mirrors. I had literally "hours" of footage. It took me 6 hours over a two day span to edit all that footage and condense it down to what you see here. it was never allowed to get hot. (ol Jim knows his stuff, besides... if you knew the grip with which he holds his money, you would know he would never risk damaging his $7k investment :) The cameras were off for long periods of time while we did other things between starts.. (remember we went for a trans fluid run which took 40 minutes in real time but probably 30 seconds in the video. lol ) thanks for the comment and thanks for watching.

@falcon7350 5 жыл бұрын

i can tell you 2 mins of run time is to much with out cooling. when i had to drop my drive belt on my 496 8.1L to find a tapping knocking sound it would boil the colant inside in just 2mins with out the water pump turning
