😊

its been a while but thanks for the videos ..youtube can do what it wants just like you can looking forward to more whenever they arrive.

the 351 clev 4v is the one you want with the big ported heads. the 2v motor isn't that popular.

​@Hobodeluxe007 true, from what I've seen the 2v heads are open chamber. There are some 4v with open chamber heads but not as many.

eddie and zsa zsa. green acre style!

Thanks for that, it takes a lot of time to put together - I was still doing this one at 3am last night

Me too

That's a good looking torino! Very nice!

He's got time for KZfaq, he's not that busy. Wipe that white stuff, off your chin.

And he thanks you for being dumb enough to watch as he cashes his KZfaq checks

Thank God for guys like Luke and Alex at ALF's Mustang garage. They have bailed me out when I got in over my head. So thankful for their input and Non-Tomfoolery ways of properly addressing issues. Cheers from Motown/Dearborn.

So you admit you didn’t like watching Starsky & Hutch?

My dad had (has) a saying: "You can't listen with your mouth open."

"R.I.P. Mr. Tockhorn"? DID YOU KILL HIM

Mr Tockhorn gave you a gift not many have. Epic lesson 👍🏻

It was convenient in the moment, that's for sure 🙂

while i was changing plugs on my prius one of them had shattered ceramics, but i didnt know till i pulled it from the well. My first thought was ohhh ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu but then I thought "If i just get the bits out of the cylinder it'll be fine." So i rigged a piece of water hose with some duct tape and a shop vac and cleaned out the cylinder. I've had 0 issues.

That was pretty slick.

I'm gonna amaze family and friends with the funnel/vacuum trick.

Pretty much learned something new today!

Watching the fuel gauge drop as they put their foot into it.

I know people like that unfortunately

@RattleTrapGarage One of the biggest loud mouths hyping these fallacies came back several months later wondering why he had developed holes in his pistons. He was sure there was no detonation. 😅

​@wobblysauce and then those same meth heads complain about their sh!t being gas guzzlers. Gee, I wonder why. 🤷‍♂️

​@garysurovec It's those kinds of people that pass off their fallacy ways to their offspring and the next generation, then you get people that hate on classic cars, that "carburetors and distributors are the devil" and go off to vote for puppets that sign into law bs legislation stranggling car and truck communities. I see it as a chain reaction and my own theory of how Cali became what they are now.

Couldn't agree more

Great mistakes tractors... even when they don't work they still have a good lawn ornament presence.

And you were allowed to repair your own.

And it didn't cost a fortune to manufacture quality components and product overall made with good materials for production.

Same deal here had new 89. 5.0. Mustang took in for service they left outside fire started and block wall fell on car....ouch...😢😢

Glad my efforts here may if been of some real world use 🙂

If it has an f head engine it probably dont luke newer gas they are low compression low rpm engines that will practically run on a alcoholics morning piss modern 87 with no lead is like rocket fuel to them old F heads

Hard to come by really too - not many around these days

That's really the only reason I'm here 🙂

Dad had 72 ss 351 Cleveland cobra jet. 4 on floor, funnest grocery getter ever.

I'm glad you are enjoying it 🙂

Oi!

Gday mate…did I get it right by crocky?

@@DoyleShadduck i think you mean "crikey" haha close enough mate.

I never thought I'd like it all being a city kid originally and not having any family background at all in ag, but there's something special about the feeling if those old tractors and struggling against the earth

​@ThunderHead289 Was born and raised on a dairy farm 🚜. It now is a hay farm. The cattle were sold to farms in a 6 state area and one piece of equipment ended up in central Pennsylvania. Is a few things I miss about the farm. 😊

I grew up amidst heavy ridicule, and vowed to never do that to anyone

Absolutely in my case I hated “hot air “chevy fans,40 years later gM has been getting worse SO lol to them-57 was not a good year for CHEBYS

I only came here to make fun of you. 🙄

I need to twist my own arm to film stuff more - many things I just do that the internet never sees 🙂

Thats ridiculous! Screw the haters! The majority of your viewers want to see what you have to say! Please keep on posting! You are such a smart guy! We learn so much from you! Thanks for all you do!

I got that T-Shirt as well! Tell ya what though, throwing those hay bales around all day will make ya tough feller to deal with!

I learned to drive in a hay field when I was around 7 years old. Round and round till we had a full load and grandpa would tell me to slide over and drive about 5 miles on the two lane clipped road to the barn.

@@Big88Country And there was always that old man you haled hay for to make fair money. Who didn't know how to set the bale size and always made 90 lb bales.

@@SIXPACFISH HAHAHAHA!! Man, you know it!!

@@SIXPACFISH Yup, did that too in an old 53 Chevy truck. It had a granny gear and we just pointed the truck the way we wanted it to go, then run up and turn it again to go another way. The whole time we were throwing hay bales on the trailer.

Not terrible advice right there

😂

​@@ThunderHead289 You (not hooked up by you) Carb Cheater was using the Starter Motor as a ground on the down side of the starter solenoid. So while it will read as a near ground value any and all power was spread between the starter brushed motor and the Carb Cheater. When running under load it may have only had a 10v or 8 volt drop from + to that starter power point. The other voltage was dropped across the Starter Motor. 😊 Miss working on these old cars (right up to the point of opening the hood) 😂😂😂

Thanks so much 🙂 We don't really know what we are doing - but one has to get involved if they want to figure anything out 🙂

I'm glad you enjoyed it 🙂

She has 65,000 miles on them and counting - now I'm curious if they can make 70! Never seen a tire do that before, blows my mind

If it makes 70k , let me know and the cold snacks of your choice are on me!

I love them. I’ve loved the cars ever since I saw one around. Ironically I talk to that guy a lot now that I have my 71 GT

The bumber guards ruined a beautiful rear

@@mikerhodeback9636 ehh 🤷‍♂️. It was a common option for front and rear guards. They aren’t my favorite but they don’t really bother me.

@@RustyDreamsGarage our federal government began requiring 5 mph bumbers, hence the guards

@@mikerhodeback9636 those weren’t required until 1973, which speaking of Torino’s is one reason for the extreme body change design between 72/73/74. I’ve had two 71’s and neither had the optional deluxe bumper guards.

Thanks so much 🙂 just trying to pass the knowedge forward as best I can.

you got that right LOL Happy Friday, Black Jack

Howdy, gentlemen 🤓

@@ThunderHead289howdy, gentle man 🤣

I used to own a 1986 Chevy k20 custom deluxe long bed well used 4x4 farm truck and i built a mild sbc motor for it and it was a portable sprayer tank fertilizer truck and it was half powered by two switches on the dash brake lights running lights, power to the ignition control module, wipers didn't work,fasten belts buzzer worked every time, blower motor was on the switch, electrical choke, the radio power was on the 2nd switch, the results were the electrical choke plug was zip tied to the passenger side fender, windshield wiper fuse was missing, headlight switch was going out and the brake light switch was bad, blower motor and radio fuse was missing,ignition terminal in the fuse block the pinkish red thick spade was unhooked, ironically i fixed most of them and added the missing fuses and the 196k miles truck only had two indicator lights that didn't work and the ac was taken apart so it didn't either, the transfer case lever gear indicator light didn't work and the high beam indicator light was blown out so it didn't work,i was having issues with getting the front parking lights or either of the reverse lights to work and found out they were missing as well, after that i put new park, running, turn signal and brake lights and reverse light bulbs in the truck and a junkyard headlight switch i had that truck for 12 and 1/2 years and almost everything worked including both of factory gear lever selector indicators, the horn, and the 4way flashers it was actually one of the most reliable and dependable vehicles I've owned, and when i got it from a farmer it definitely had issues, and I'm a farm kid but that's just ridiculous to me and i have no idea how that truck didn't catch on fire no circuit breakers or relays for either of those two switches, and they were just the plastic cheap illuminated fog lights switches i took them out

Hey, if you enjoy it who am I to tell you otherwise 🙂 Thanks for the support 🙂

I'm a sea of self proclaimed carb guys, thank you - that means a lot

I unfortunately was in that situation too often when I was young. Has pretty much screwed me up 😮😢😢😢😢

Talk is cheap. Put your money where your mouth is and show me what you got/can do. Most of them don't even have a car LOL

​@TheGhjgjgjgjgjg you are spot on, most of the keyboard warriors don't even own a car nevermind the knowledge to fix anything...

I like to argue with them sometimes and make them look dumb. But usually it is just annoying dipshits. Reminds me of when I used to drink there was always some guy at the bar who "knew" everything.

Amen

But, but...they know *everything* ... ...since the dawn of time... XD

This is very true

Very true

But I like arguing with them so much? I would miss it.. 😂

Ifnyou saw under the hood of the maverick, it's an HEI 🙂

@@ThunderHead289 yea I saw it. I’m a member of some Ford truck facebook groups. Some of those people are offended and fighting mad if you bring up HEI in a ford. 😆

@@Robrt32 Wonder if they get really pissed off once they find out who Saginaw is and why it's printed on their steering gear.

Thanks so much 🙂

The 71 M code or even 2v is a completely different animal than your 73 GTS.

@@natejones963 '71 H code is actually the same animal, maybe a half point of compression higher. M, R, and Q engines were on a whole different level though, absolutely.

Thanks! You too

Sure have - and have seen the really cool photos

@@ThunderHead289 really man?? How many are said to be put away. That's crazy.

It is so cool - especially when she's really eating

I'd do a lot more on youtube if I had the time - even this one ended up being filled very ... Spotily

I like how her voice was supposed to be mocking mine
