Thanks

Looks just like his Dad!

Absolutely Miss the days of me and my Dad in the shop or just working together. Those 😁 smiles on their faces are priceless.

I was just going to say wow what a team these guys make and then I see John hop makes a comment of what a father-son combo. He's right they do make a good team and they make some badass horsepower

Ha! I was thinking little brother...

And how many of us would be thrilled out of our mind to have even 500 in a cruiser car. Hopefully the engine owner has a line of credit at his tire shop. 😁

@@bigboreracing356 I think it's better to have two daily drivers the 500 horsepower one and the 1800 horsepower one that way you can choose your maintenance level for the day. 😁 Well scratch that, I just checked my Powerball number. 😁

I'm pretty sure an on-screen message said the owner has spent years building this engine... Yeah.. have fun with that mate, & have fun at the gym building up your legs for a clutch that will hold it lol.

The turbo lag on a stick shift street car is going to be nuts lol.

@@allxdup1909 The left leg is going to get a hell of a workout for sure.

I appreciate it

Yep! "Pretty hard on $hit" is the understatement of the year!!

I would call the snout of the fuel pump drive snapping off a bit of a problem, but I don't think we can pin that on the engine itself.

@@--_DJ_-- wasn't it the end of the crank that snapped off? and the fuel pump drive is attached to that, I could be wrong but I thought I saw the crank??

@@simpleman2004 It just looked like the drive extension snout that broke to me. Also remember Cleetus/Brent said that piece looked like was “cast” and I would imagine the crank in Cleetus’s is mostly a forged crank.

I appreciate it

I appreciate it!

Thanks

Like the old say goes “The Devils is in the details.”

Thanks

Thanks

It takes a lot to respond, I miss a lot of them because I got to work😁😁

@@stevemorrisracing I got ya Steve!! I worked a minimum of 60 hours a week for 9 months out of the year! You remind me of my self! Work your ass off but take time for your boy and teach him a skill. My skill I gave my son was mechanics and riding a snowmobile. Like you it’s so cool to sit back and watch them do what you taught them! I see that in your son. At the track and at the shop! Ya did good, and the pride of a father for his son is special which no one can take from you! Thank you for your response! It means a lot!

Thanks

Bummer

That's sad lol..been working on cars with my dad since I was 5.

Its because you keep fixing it. Make them learn to fix it and theyll be forced to participate in their own well being.

Cleet and crew did it wrong on their Blue Print Engines BBC twice lol. Seems like a common problem with these big blocks to set it wrong.

@@bobbygetsbanned6049 only if you don't know what you are doing in the first place. Not sure this was even done 100% properly.

@@DodgyBrothersEngineering Well nothing is a problem if you know what you're doing in the first place...

@@bobbygetsbanned6049 true, but most of engine building is to do with patience not necessarily knowledge. Specifications and how to measure something can be found in a book. You don't think that Steve just said oh that is the problem. While it might have seemed that way on KZfaq I bet he came to that conclusion after sitting down having a beer or a cup of tea. Sometimes sitting down and thinking about it is as much a part of being an engine builder as using the tools. You will note he only roughly measured one of two possible things that could be adjusted, maybe he needed another cuppa to get the second one.
