Wow! Tavarish in my video comments now this is a real privilege! Thanks man!

But it would take you 3 years too fix it freddie. Vtune will be driving his mclaren before your next blog comes out hhaaa

Would love to see a collab with you two 👍

Holy crap tavarish commented your famous now 🤣🤣🤣

@@rayseal1099 Tavarish has been doing car trek probably why he hasn't had as many videos lately

Totally agree

Just replacing the rear main would be a good start. that is an awful lot of fluid leaking on the pipes.

@@jgarner1104 maybe valve cover gaskets and intake gaskets mis match if heads were milled???

@@rsprockets7846The head to block mating surfaces are milled, not the upper surface. and that would be a ton of oil seep from the valve cover

@@jgarner1104 talking about milling the block decking and cutting the head mating surface. Never know.

The fact that it has the factory valve covers on it says no way they spent 8,000. And the A/C delete drives me crazy.

By the look of those brackets, radiator and hose attachments, I think he really might have spent 8k........ 8k isn't shit these days.

@@sherloidbai7064 Naw, Previous owner threw new pipes/headers on for 550, hoses for 175, Autozone plug wires, stock valve covers, stock air intake (with lime green paint for style points) , BBK air intake 189, poly mounts on the engine 80 bucks, transmission mounts 50 bucks, stock transmission, SVE radiator 200 bucks, second hand aluminum drive pulleys for 50, and leaking oil like a sieve from the rear main.. The engine has all the care a 17 year old in shop class would give it with the flash parts but not where it counts. So naw, 8K is a fantasy on this one, with the numbers I put up and I would put a hard bet on them, this engine has about 1400 in superficial parts bolted on it. I know he said early in the video that it had a large cam in it, but with the lack of replacement of the stock parts, I would put zero truth on that. I had a 78 Monte Carlo when I was in HS. I put headers, pipes on it and it sounded good too. I didn't spend 8K either.

@@jgarner1104 yup ur rite

@@jgarner1104 Oh... well You didn’t tell us you had a Monte Carlo in high school... you should really mention that up front so everyone knows that they’re dealing with an expert. I had the same motor punched out to 306, cam, heads, pulleys, brackets, etc etc etc... oh, and used the stock valve covers. Not quite 8k, but wasn’t cheap, and dropped it in my ‘65 with a top loader 4 speed. Ran like a scalded ass ape. I have my doubts about that motor, but not for your “reasons”.

I was going to say the same thing about the synchros.

Transmission rebuild very soon

That's a product of the weak factory T5. Fine unless you get sticky tires or go over 350-400lbs of torque and hit it hard.

Paper synchros 😭 blew mine too back in 91

Rode hard, put away wet A few times...

BMW!!. Remember the last one was sent it back with brand new radiator new tyres and fresh maco paint.

Said this before Randy you are absolutely killing it on the cars lately! Most definitely look forward to this mustang even though it seems the engine is shaking!

@@keelaihassan Zoe, she gave it her all.

Randy, you are going to have your hands FULL for the New Year! I look forward to your updates.

I can’t wait to see what happens with the fox body

That is not even near 4k I put about 2k on mine and it has lot more mods than that.

Looks like an aftermarket intake... Stock Taurus SHO (Yamaha) V6 engine was $10,000.00...

@@BuzzLOLOL intake as in manifold i own 3 foxbodies i know whats stock or not

@@BrionMG - Intake looked clean and new like an Edelbrock...

@@BuzzLOLOL sure it is bud👍

Yeah I was thinking the same thing. Spent 8k on what? Lol

5 lug swap is pointless

I think that motor is out of a 94-95 SN95 car those accessories are from a 94 95 motor I have a 94 306 same accessories on my motor !

how can you tell what a motor has done to inside from the outside? Don’t judge a book but it’s cover. got a ragged out body of a 2012 duramax pushing 1200hp.

Accessories are 94-95 Mustang stuff.

It has syncro tho first gear. You are right about putting it in first while moving.

How I killed my celiac I’m pretty sure

@Kristof No one cares where your from buddy

That will happen if the transmission is NOT synchronized (synchromesh) or the synchronizer is bad. Should not have a problem down shifting into first if synchronized. I remember riding in a truck with my father and he had to double clutch it. Once to go out of gear and then again to go into gear. Down shifting he had to rev the engine so rpm would match and yes double clutch, which is what a synchronizer does.

Engine needs rings pay to much 89 mustang

Hmm, fix the engine and get rid of the ugly beams. As you need a new hood why not "frankenstein" it and give it a Mercury Capri/Mexico Mustang front?!

I think they put a fresh engine in it and then proceeded to beat the hell out of it before proper ring seating. You're supposed to give them 500 miles of easy driving not over 3K RPM. 1989 engines had forged pistons from the factory. Pretty hard to destroy those although it can be done. 1990 started the hypereutechtic pistons.

Heat and load seats rings... not driving like grandma. Run it up to at least 4 grand hard and let off and let the engine slow the vehicle down. Do that for a little while and drive while varying rpm. If you needed to drive slow to seat rings nothing that got dynoed from ground zero would ever survive lol.

Maybe they were spraying all of the nitrous.

It will be a first if Randy pulls and fix that engine.

@@rgbigdog I’d be surprised if he does

I wish I lived close by, I just retired in July. I'd hang out and help for free. I'm certified, rebuilt a lot of engines, a lot, old school Ford. Owned my own repair shop business. I have a ton of tools.literally.

@@waynegouin939 Randy give this guy a call. Sounds like he could help. Free labor. Lol

What would you hone that bore to grit-wise for chrome molies? Standard molies like 300-400ish if I recall.

I never used chrome moly rings for that reason.

@@atbgaming8342 man it’s been so long but I believe from the research I did back in the day, I didn’t use an aggressive enough pattern on mine which made the seating process extremely slow. I think it took almost 6k miles before it’s finally started to seat. I was worried I broke a ring putting it together.

@@legendsofcaraudiobradnewso8424 used to throw bon ami cleanser down the intake

My friend built one, and he removed the backseat and built a giant speaker cabinet that went from the the full length of the trunk to the very back of the front seats. It was so loud, used to drive around just cranking the van halen and anything else loud to the point of the car's mirrors being no longer effective. And now i have the hairloss as a result of that.

Next grind will be a chunked tooth and bam loss of gears other I think 5 and reverse

Had one as my first car it was fast 😂

@@rillixsgarage4767 so jealous lol my buddy had one also. I just love the body style.

👁️

I'm in !

it‘s goin to scrap already

Yep and stock heads too. They rebuilt it and added a cam

Even if it was gt40 heads and intake theres no way theres over $5k.

He meant 8k after rebuild 😂

A fox still sounds good haha

maybe $8000 with labor and nonsense from a shysty shop

What does that even mean? It's where most of the money went! 🤣🤣🤣

@@TCBGARAGE , I sure hope not. Otherwise some "mechanic" is laughing his butt all the way to the bank.

@@TCBGARAGE The paint boys, the paint... You are forgetting the green paint! It's priceless! 😂

@@TCBGARAGE By 8k hes probably referring to the crate 302 340hp $8k engine you could by from ford in the early 2000s

That hue of green needs to be outlawed.

I thought the same thing karl schroen

That’s called the IAC. Yes, this is used for cold starting of engines to adjust idle, but this is not his issue. That would only effect the initial start of the engine but it continues to die as a result of severe blow by. This is most likely cracked piston rings or rings not seated correctly causing low compression hence why it keeps stalling.

@@braden6402 it’s going to continue to die without the IAC hooked up it’s going to start until the motor comes up to operating temperature and that is exactly why it kept dying has nothing to do with the blow by blow by was affecting it it would be skipping I like how you try to go or scientific and use terms like low compression but it doesn’t have Anything to do with the coldstart issue I’m not saying the motor doesn’t have other issues it definitely does but the poster issue is the IAC unplugged

You can tell this thing has way more issues than just the iac unplugged.

Oh god I was thinking the same thing. That shit looks atrocious on that engine

Exactly

I paid $2500 for an 87 GT that just needed a shift cable. They are going up in price from what I noticed when buying one again

Yes sir , good eye Trevor

Looks like a plain old ac delete to me. Also 94 95s only had one coil.

No they didn't only cobras and Saleens came with 140 speedo

$8000 engine with stock intake & rattle can valve covers

Just cause he might have paid 8000 doesn't make that motor worth 2000

@@scottbaker9066 not arguing with you, but if you have ever had a pretty woman or a souped up car or built a car you should know that its past directly affects its future. In another words the past will always rear its ugly head. Once you put money into a car you will loose about 3 quarters of that money when you decide to sell. Thats why most car guys just end up keeping there Hoopdie collection untill they die. You can spend a lot of money and get nothing for it when you sell it. Thats widely known among all car guys and guys with pretty women. In another words for every thousand you put in you might get a dollar back.

Yes explorer did have a 5.0 at one point

Yea it did the 1999 ford explorer and Mercury mountaineer had a 5.0

It'll be an $8 dollar motor if he keeps driving it with that kind of blowby!

@@angelsanchez7681 96-01 had 5.0 as an option.

Definitely has 94-95 gt water pump and accessory drive and brackets

Yeah the rings are gapped for a boosted application I would honestly turbo the car and that should fix the blow by issue

Good call

amen tail light horrible! late model restoration is the best

The LMR browsing is real with all fox body owners lol. Time for him to feel the pain

I was thinking same thing when I seen valve cover smoke but only small amount from exhaust even on hard rev

Its bad rings.

@@waynegouin939 well we all know simple compression test will help confirm that. Lol

@@waynegouin939 I first thought of valve guides/dropped valve. But there is so much blow by, I think you are correct. Also, if it was head related he would have fixed it.

@@eugenesbackyardrepair4593 rings did not seat bad break in and oil

Thats like checking the Titanic for a pinhole

Definitely he knew that when he bought it from going the auction prior and pointing out how misaligned every front panel on it

Also car used to be teal, and has a k member from a different color car

@@fomocopowersgarage7103 the teal wouldn't be factory. Teal or anything close to teal was not even available from factory on the Mustang in 1989. Teal was only available on the '93 Cobras for that generation of Mustang. Calypso is close to that but wasn't available for the Mustang LX only '91-92. If teal or Calypso color are on that car then it is probably because it has had body parts from another Mustang put onto it. There is no color in the '89 color pallet that is anywhere near teal.

@@adamn5821 I know, see my other posts. That wasn't a color available in 1989. It seems like somebody swapped all of the GT Parts on to a different shell, including the VIN number which is the scary part

@@adamn5821 if you look at the door sticker in the pictures on Copart, the door sticker even says the car's original color was Cabernet red. That shell was definitely not Cabernet Road

I don't think it's a 5.0 it is a 4 cylinder car I.m.o

More like a 10k

@@rsprockets7846 doubtful

It grind it in second as well as he was trying to snatch second the transmissions in these cars are absolute garbage I’ve blown up plenty of them with the stock engines

Especially if it has a heavy duty gear set like straight cut 1st gear for drag strip
