The more I watch these, the more I think Dulcich (sp?) should have his own series!

Love me some Dulcich expertise. No glossy BS, some clumsiness, very relatable and very inspirational. Go Steve ! Keep on trucking (from France) !

I really want to have a beer with Steve. He just seems like a genuine and cool as hell guy. Glad my MTOD sub is going to good folks. His voice is really chill too. Keep it up everyone!

Dulcich definitely partied in the 70s.

Whoever does the audio levels/mixing needs a slap. Loud as feck at about 8:30

Every now and then, you come across a person who you can really identify with. I have been rebuilding cars since the early eighties, and have been inspired by Hot Rod magazine my whole life. Steve, thanks for all the tips and knowledge over the years. Can't think of a better way to spend my free time than in your garage.

This is the kind of roadkill extra that I like. Where it’s a slightly longer video, on one topic, but really into depth and a lot more informative.

No gloves, no goggles, no guard, no worries 😂

I have really come to appreciate everything Dulcich

I just love watching Steve working in all of his clumsiness. Keep it up “Dulcheck” :)

hands down the best tech vids around. dulcich is just so entertaining to watch. and hes too smart. more tech vids!!

10/10 Dulchich's tutorials provide both info and entertainment.

So many cars get the backyard bench cocktail of fiberglass and fillers. It'll hold up for a while. That cardboard absorbed alot of the essentail resons and epoxies needed to be durable. Im gonna hate to see that hood in a couple years though. If it lasts that long. Prob be changed over again in a few months. Steve and Dave are super cool cats that are livin the dream. Ive watched that car be built like 7 differant ways over the years. I was a kid when frieburger found it at the scrap yard and done the first build. Still got the magizine somewhere. I would love to come cali and be part of their crusher camaro shanannagins. Steves house is the coolest mopar safe haven in the world. I wonder what hes got hidden they havent showed us. Im sure there's somethin extremly cool and valuable hiding out in those weeds. Awesome show! Thanks guys

I always liked you Dulcich. You my friend are a Brilliant man. Donnie

I have an MTOD subscription and seriously, it's awesome

RIP headphone users. Holy fuck.

Great video Dulcich..... you need to do more DIY/how to vids. I would love to sit and drink beers with you and Frieberger. Oh and to hell with any and all negative comments. Much respect, to you and the knowledge you pass on.

Always good to see the Crusher get some love.

The Old Cat nodded. He likes Dulchic as he is an animal lover. I like him too as he just a regular guy who loves his hobby,animals, and freedom.

This guy is my favorite youtube car personalities.

a neat trick a seen once was someone trowing the thickened resin intoo a thick plastic bag and then cut a small corner of one end he then used it as a cake decorator and squeesed the plastic bag laying down a nice bead al along the part needing to be bonded , saves a lot of mess and time too he used some sort of glass beads intoo normal resin to thicken it enough to use it to stick the deck and the hull of a speedboat together , whent on like squeesing toothpaste out of a tube

I like this guy. This is how I bonded on my cowl to make room for the big block and big carb. No regrets

Grumpy Jenkins,that brings back memories.

Dulcich is the shop teacher I had missing fingers and never wear protection except for a bib and prescription safety glasses .

Would have done it from the underside. That way all you have to pay attention is the radius.

Someone hire that man an electrician to fix that breaker box at 9:06 before we lose Dulcich to a fire.

Push it up threw the hole from the bottom, rough up the mating surfaces and secure it with resin and pop rivets. Setup maybe takes a little more time, but you get to keep the 2" flanges and blending is so much easier...

Freiburger and Finnegan are cool, but Dulcich is next level.

Dulcich is the James May of Roadkill

When I saw the thumbnail for this vid in my feed I nearly thought you'd roped Edd China in to do some stuff with you... on that note, that would be a super cool crossover!!

Steve, wear some safety glasses brother, we want you to retain your eyeballs for more episodes here!

I love this guy, he has an awesome vibe.

When it comes to fiberglass dust, use a real respirator people. Not a cheap dollar store dust mask..... fiberglass in the lungs is no joke.

Dulcich would look at home in purple velvet knickers and coat with a little Lord Fauntleroy haircut.

SO LOUD

6:02 does Steve dip or does he use the cans for hardware containers lol

Dulcich is the man

When he slammed the scoop down on accident I had to pause the video and rewind cause I was laughing so hard

The most intriguing part of this video was spotting the Attic 'Cuda.

Thanks for the tips sir, question though - why not push the hood scoop in from the bottom of the new hood? Wouldn't the edges of the hood then butt up against the scoop? Thank you.

Why did you not install the scoop from the inside instead? Wouldn't it be cleaner and easier to do it that way and with almost no chance of it flying off if any one of those epoxies / fillers didn't set right? Epoxy it from the inside and use the screws exactly the same way you did on the outside, except on the inside. You could leave them there forever this way and have both the epoxy as well as the mechanical fasteners in place for extra security. Then on the outside surface you'd have a lot less filler and bondo to add to smooth it out so it should look better and be stronger overall. If I'm wrong on that please tell me why. I'm not a body guy but it seemed logical to me to do it that way.

I also colour the area under the scoop so when you cut the hole from the underside you can just paint the cut edge and the bonding material for a neater finish.

the internet is a place where people come to watch other people and then complain about what the other people are doing "because, they would have done it a different BETTER way" its kind of sad what has become of the youtube and social media platform's

Another fine piece of Dulcich butchery

love the special effects @9:10 lmao

"Grumpy Jenkins." :-)

Hands off the crusher

It's like watching the Swedish Chef of Hot Rods.

Why do it from the top? Flip the hood (leave the 2 inch lip on the cowl) and glass it into the the hood from the bottom? The only thing needed on the top of the hood would be to fill in any gaps between the cowl and the hole made in the hood. That would leave the lines of the hood clean instead of raised around the cowl. Just a thought.

definitely enjoyed this thanks Steve

Dulcich? Fantastic!

This guys definitely does not need safety goggles.

Thanks Steve!

would it work if you cut a slightly bigger hole and and fitted the scoop from the underside so you don't have to blend it in from the top? that way any blending you need to do would be from the under side where nobody would see it?

Good job Steve.

Why weren't the hood flanges bonded from under the hood for a flush finish and rigidity? Personally, i would have cut slots to feed the flanges into, bonded from the inside.

POLL: Which adds more hp? Grump lump on 74 Nova or dropping the 240lbs of bumpers? Imma have to go with grump lump

Dulcich is like will Ferrell’s car guy brother

I picked up a couple years ago, the neighbors a 64 1/2 hipo mustang, it spent most of its life as a drag car. It has a 'vintage' scoop like this on it, BUT it has the LARGE hole in the front. (hood was cut to be functional ram air). Which is 'time period correct'? ram air or Cowl induction? My hipo IS a old drag car, and Ram air.

just wondering shy you didn't use cordless to tek screw the scoop when placing scoop to hood during bonding? But you did use it when removing screws...

Lot of internet experts and keyboard warriors posting here. Dulcich doesn't need you guys telling him whats up.

dulcich is a cool guy

Dulcich is awesome

Nailed it ...Now Iam giong to do mine

Every time something cool comes up on mtod I’m like “sweet, this is why I pay for this” Then they pop up on KZfaq for free. What am I paying for?

I had glasstech fenders on my ranger

Why not to mount it from under the hood? That way the bonded surface is hidden under the hood and the whole setup can be built to look very neat.

I use a 1/2 to 3/8 drill bit in the 4 inside corners before cutting for radius corners. Easier than a jigsaw.

That electrical plug inst up to code on that sub panel at 10:20 Dulcich. #firehazard

Are y’all doin a 75th episode race

Been using cardboard to mix my filler since 1978... never heard it was a no no...

Upvoting at 0:00 because FUCK YES

Steve your awesome don't pay attention to these haters !!

Pro-tip: sparks from the cut off disk WILL melt your windshield or any glass, if you're doing this on the car cover it up

10:05 I'm dying. Creepy old unicorn. Lmao

Steverino need his own channel.

Any reason why you couldn't pass it up through from under the hood?

to make the radius in the corners you can do holes with a drill, its easier

Steve it will not last long, Why you say? Because Long Strand is not a bonding agent. that scoop will go air born someday. You need to remove all signs of gel coat or tool gel coat you need to get down to fiberglass, than mix up some laminating resin wet areas to be glassed use some Fiberglass mat several layers than let cure than grind until you itch like crazy than body work it. Good luck dude, You grow grapes I build and repair Boats..

Found this guy on Craigslist? What about scuffing hood and scoop for better adhesion? Does not even clean off paint or use a degreaser

Does dulcich dip? There’s a can of Copenhagen at 6:14

Ha ha.....could have used this info back in 1981 when I put a hood scoop on my first car

if any of you see the finished product it's like glass and is not coming off. so what's the problem?

Pff who even needs a hood when you can show off that beautiful engine

I like Dulcich

Why does all the intelligent car guys have crazy hair styles man cut that hair hippy lol

just wanted to say that I'm itching just watching that fiberglass cutting action go down. That is all.

In no way an expert, but was wondering why you wouldn't cut a slot for the scoop to slide into the hood and attach it from the bottom and inside. The hole is cut afterwards from the underside. I think it would be a much cleaner look and less body work.

Man I wish this guy was my uncle!

Where did you guys get the scoop

Is this gentleman really a bodyman as mentioned above?

Glad it's not a fake hoodscoop

Love steve

why not bond from the bottom of the hood so the flange is on the under side?

is that a CUDA in the attic ?

Wouldn't it have been better to use the factory type panel bond adhesive they use to put corvette bodies together?

arent you meant to cut the hole and put these in from underneath to minimise filler ontop?

People complain about the height of a Ford DOHC V8. Then saw gaping holes in the hood of their 2-valve pushrod V8 to clear tunnel rams and Weiand blowers. Makes sense. Dulcich needs a haircut, a pair of nitrile gloves, a respirator, ear plugs, and good pair of Uvex safety glasses.

Yeah, that's not how fiberglass works. That thing will delaminate . Laminating resin and mat bonded to the fiberglass parts with gel coat removed from both parts first. That's from the top and that's the shortcut way. But it should be done from the bottom to be right, but that's the long way.

Wait! What happened to the LS motor? ..did I miss something???
