I'm also loving the upgrade in audio but I just wish they'd find a better position than the mic pointed away from him on the bill of his hat. The sensitivity has to get turned up so much to hear him that there's a lot of noise.
I’m hoping for a swap too. The EPA didn’t actually stop Rich Rebuilds from swapping his Tesla /The Drive did an article on it, they definitely couldn’t stop anyone now
2 things i retain from this video. 1 love that you guys are mic'ed up.( We need this more often) 2 you need some type of ATV/sxs/ golf cart as a push/pull mule! Great content as always boys!! 🤘
Dont they still have a smart car somewhere they were using like that for the MR2? Not that it would have done any better in this situation, but I do think they have it.
Kyle, ive been watching this channel since we were all kids, this month of frequent uploads has been so much fun! really makes me feel like im 18 again watching you boost the hatch and wago, make your first intercooler, losing trouser in the van frame, spending time with the guys at PFI. Ive loved every minute of content youve uploaded since back then, but these videos today feel special! You and Wyatt being mic'd up is hilarious btw, and im so happy we can all share this together. Thank you guys so much for doing what you do and sharing it with us. Someday i hope to meet you guys at an event and thank you properly. I was a kid washing cars when this all started, im now a master mechanic at a Honda dealer. Many of my lunch breaks and hardest days were spent with all of you guys. Thank you all for everything!
well at least the rich achieved something in life before that person dies. his kids will probably inherit the fortunes and pass on to the next generation. cycle of life.
Yeah got to play your part start early with diversified investments in stocks, bonds, and real estate. Maximize contributions to tax-advantaged accounts like 401(k)s and IRAs. Regularly review and adjust your strategy to ensure security.
People dont understand that the prices of things are never going back down. This inflation is deeper than we think. Those buying groceries are well aware that the real inflation is much over 10%. The increments dont match our income, yet certain investors still earn over $365,000 in stocks and assets. Wish I could accomplish that.
Just want to say i love the mic upgrade to hear you and wyatt banter back and forth lmfao dying 😂😂 if you agree smash the likes so kyle knows we appreciate the updates and will get this pinned 🤘🏻🤘🏻
When you find out the thrusts are gone in the engine, make sure you order a quality billet converter for it before you put it back together. The converters like to ballon and take out the crank on those. Other than that and some emissions stuff, those engines are bulletproof.
Loving the boosted month of freedom over here on this channel !! Thanks Guys!! Keep pushing this is AWESOME with all the content!! and Hondaru too??? WHAT???? So Kick Ass!!
Hell yeah I've been wondering when this would be pulled out of its grave. Also personally I'd have a professional detailer do a full decontamination on the interior
I’m down for some diesel content seeing how I work on peterbilts all day. The isb is pretty easy to overhaul. You guys shouldn’t have any issues getting it done
It's always good to have a spare rig in the fleet. I hope you guys build up the new engine to handle some decent power. Make it as reliable as you can and use the hell out of it.
Great change of pace in the content and really stoked to see the work on this. I would HIGHLY recommend you install a new Harmonic Balancer from Fluidampr. I installed one on my Cummins 5.9 and it makes a huge difference related to eliminating vibration and engine rev up. Super responsive results IMO
Ah dang, I was hoping for a K-swap. Maybe some day. I bet a K-swap video will blow up on the internet, pissing off a lot of people. "Horsepower is for speed, torque is what gets stuff done." *Wheel* torque is what gets stuff done.
@@coliimusic do I think that a 2J would be a better comparable engine swap? Absolutely. Larger displacement, more cylinders, more consistent torque at low RPM. But a k swap I think is a perfect experiment for the argument of small displacement, high RPM, low torque engines can't do the job. Also k24 are much cheaper than a 2J for experiments
You could also put a 50cc two stroke in it if the gearing is low enough. Exactly the same principle. What's the point though? Sure it pisses a lot of people off, so he gets views. But that's a one time thing, after that he can't race it and it's impractical for towing. (Unless he puts a 30-speed transmission in it, but it would still burn tons of gas while towing)
@@Harry_Gersack if it's not something worth getting viewers, then might as well just go diesel. I'm sure a 2J would get good looks, I just don't think as many. Look up "8 turbo V8". Same idea. It even got an article in jalopnik
If you like the idea of small displacement engines pushing full sized cars... Go check out "Robot Cantina" currently Jimbo is working on a Honda insight with a Kubota 3 cylinder engine with a supercharger. Previously the insight had a predator engine, and the Kubota was shoved in an old Saturn for a bit too 😂 He's entertaining and goes into reasonable depth on what he builds.
It would be pretty cool to see the Edison Motors swap to diesel electric on the old cummins. That's another big project, but would be some good content.
No that's just stupid a Cummins build is way cooler and better than a vacuum cleaner motor no one ever said your electric car or truck is cool just saying
@@3wheelslifelonglivetheatc559it's a hybrid not full electric FYI. I don't care about most electric stuff, but the Edison Motors setup is definitely worth checking out
@@3wheelslifelonglivetheatc559it would still have a Cummins in it. Just an electric drivetrain. Although, this one is in decent shape and doesn't need that.. yet...
@@TioDave I think you really hurt that guy's feelings lol. what a pus$y 😂 btw I think their kit isn't even close to be a product? at least I haven't seen the prototype yet that deboss want to build. afaik that's going to be the first step
People don't understand how cold Texas can get. It's not just the temperature it's the wind. Especially in the Pan Handle and west Texas. Every year, we have to deal with northerners mocking us for being fragile over winters.
*Laughs in Canadian* -20 is cold though for a place that reaches 115 regularly in the summer.. Although its a hot, our Canadian summers make it seem we're in an oven being roasted with all the humidity, especially in ontario by the big 3 (lakes) that even worsen the humidity... 90F heat but feels like 120...
I've seen a couple of the videos over the years. I was originally drawn in by the MR2 world record. The stuff you guys do is insane! Especially the plaidessy project, that was so fkn awesome. Love the hard work y'all do. Watching this vid, I had no clue about this truck and the whole backstory. So sorry for the breakdowns man, I really empathize with you on that. Hope you can breathe new life into this ol beast and create some more good memories! :)
My 2001 f150 sat for about 4 years. New battery and brake clean made it start right up. Sold it and bought a 2018 ram a couple months ago. Miss that truck
Such a Throwback to you visiting Wyatt at the diesel shop,snow all in the driveway and Wyatt still out there building people's trucks up for them. Pretty sure he had the Sketchy-DA RU-vid channel back then ❤
Man I like this 'pro' step. You two have become a big thing in RU-vid land, and that's good. Yeah, you see the mic's, but still, take this further! You guys deserve this, Wyatt is so natural now. Take it up. It will work. Find the bigger shop, introduce the helping guys, make it a thing man. And still, keep the honda/tunerboy vibe. You guys are moving up, take it man!
I can't believe that was 3 years ago.... seems like just yesterday it happened! I have been watching this channel for way too long LOL but I will keep watching it.
Wow!! I guess I’m too new? I’ve been a subscriber for about 2 1/2-3yrs and have never seen this Diamond in the rough. I’m sure Kyle will dial this Cummings in. Looking forward!! 👍👍
Give the old girl a clay bar, its just as satisfying as pressure washing it! And makes it sooooo smooth, she deserves it! Steamer helps remove mold easy
