Gumout 39’ Chevy Build Part 2 

Yes, the angle of the frame has nothing to do with anything. Get the car to ride height and adjust the drive train angles based on the level of the whole car. Not the frame

This guy knows what's up. Pinion angle is Numero Uno.

Yea what he said

Yea what he said 🤷🏼‍♂️

👍👍

Ohhhh so I is the dumb one

That’s what I’m thinking too

Ohhhh good point

I shall 👍👍

I have never ran white walls (not my thing but I'm not down it ) but in a serious question .. do they even make white walls in a performance tire ? Or do u count white walls as any tire with the blue that cleans to white ring on them lol .. I m genuine curious...

Got it!

​@@GARAGEIdiotS As Preston, always Your videos have a combination of creativity, entertainment, presentation, portrayals, narratives, information along with the current status, development within Your various projects, personal with Yourself, along with each individual within the group, team development within these too. Much Appreciated. 😃 All The Best 😊, Sincerely ☺ Note: Also about, regarding the ideas, with wheels & tires per the mentioned request; the following suggestions. A. the proposed, shown old style tires and wheels were good for the original vehicle along with the vehicle as purchased from the individual that performed all of the custom work with a "retro", "refurbished", semi-restored version including the taller, old style, white wall tires and black steel wheels perhaps with some matching period correct center, wheel caps/covers.; these could perhaps be included within the 'giveaway" to the new owner to use if desired for street driving or car show use too. B. since this custom 1939 truck is now within a different path, desire with use, intent, purpose within a much higher power, speed including drag strip use, the the tires and wheels should be proper, appropriate, perhaps similar with those used with many other such vehicles with high power, drag strip, "Hot Rod" use including "gassers" or such. 1. suggestions for wheels: a. older "Centerline" type, style chrome, polished aluminium or similar b., older "Daisy" type, style or similar c. two sets; one for racing; one for street use. 2. tires a. appropriate rear slicks for the rear, skinny for the front drag racing b. appropriate performance street tires for front and rear, seemingly balanced or slightly offset. C. there are several many manufactures with many variations, versions, styles, designs to choose from: 1. Centerline Wheels -> centerlinewheels.com/ 2. Crager Wheels -> www.cragarwheel.com/wheels/ 3.

@@newtonfirefly3584 oh my gosh that was the most thought out comment I’ve ever gotten!! Thank you for taking all that time!! I’ll check those out!! 👍👍

Haha I know, bout time

I guess haha thanks!

Lol .. well atleast it'd not the 70s model one ... that would hurt to see Cannibalized.. 😅

The true bumble bee was vw not a chev

@@jaysenballantine5489 the original one was yes .. but not the movie we were referring to lol

@@mastercricket7626 yes I know that but bumble bee will NEVER be a chev . The only reason it was a chev in that movie was because chev sponsored it

@@jaysenballantine5489 true .. but you got to think .. alotta the younger crowds have no clue what we are talking about. Tbh I would not dought anyone born past 90 haven't a clue lol ... but yeah it's funny how they can do that tho huh 😅 go from a v dub to a American car lol talk about a 180 ... and all cuz money talks .. sad story of the world ... lol . Was nice for that lil flashback tho bro .. ty ..peace and love bro keep it rad stay safe and build on..l8z fam and have fun, cuz life is to short to drive boring cars lol 😂 🤘🏽✌🏾

👍👍

Thanks!

Got it!!

👍👍 got it!

No, you need GTO seats for your GTO.. Unless you have an old GTO, but an 04-up GTO needs either factory seats or race seats. Camaro seats would be lame in them..

Message me @garage_idiots

Wurd! Thanks!

@@GARAGEIdiotS No problem! Personally I think it would give it a modern, but still vintage look. And I'm loving the build!

Roger that

Valid point

Got it!

Thanks 👍

Okay!!

@@GARAGEIdiotS THANK YOU!!!

Black and light black are the only colors needed 😅

👍👍

Thanks for telling me all of that. That’s really cool that you saw a noticeable difference!! Good to have you back!

👍👍

@nocoasthero1204; You idea, statement, suggestion about the engine placement is close to the proper, accurate, description for the proper placement, height, alignment, angle of the engine long with the transmission are certainly affected by the placement,alignment, angle of the rear end, differential, along with its third member gear input shaft, thus affecting the drive shaft alignment, angle, length, etc. ​ @GARAGEIdiotS In reality the placement of these components are via the reality of the physical placement of the three key components, as a three member group within a 3-D structure in which all three require a linear alignment horizontial, of the center line of rotation, from engine crankshaft/flexplate through the torque converter, transmission input shaft, through output shaft through drive shaft including U-joints, through rear end gear, differential , third member gear input shaft. A drawing, illustration, picture, pictorial description is far more effective, efficient and precise than the words are to describe and achieve the necessary, desired, correct, proper, valid results. This is accomplished properly, correctly precisely via simple use, with simple geometries using simple, proper, accurate, precise measurements, then forming the proper arrangement, placement, alignment, angles. Justin Shearer ["Big Chief"] shows, mentions, details the means with proper this proper set-up with his Gen 3 Corvette [on his Midwest Street Cars channel (along with many other useful, helpful, beneficial, valuable, essential, vital, critical details within engine/ignition,/fuel, suspension tuning, tires, wheels, suspension, brakes, gear rations, weight balance, etc.], using the existing factory frame, along with mentioning his choice with using proper information, knowledge from Jerry Bickel from his published race car chassis guide book, which he used to set up his Pontiac GTO, "Crow", with its custom chassis, frame; "Jerry Bickel Complete Guide to Chassis Performance", along with newer Jerry Bickel's Perfromance for Pro Chassis Construction Volume 1 Tube Chassis Fabrication, Volume 2 Body & Interior -> www.jerrybickel.com/books-and-software-1.html Preston, just as You mention in this video with the proper, precise, accurate measurements across the frame rails in the engine compartment, with a proper method for determining the center line, similarly all of the other process, method with proper, precise, accurate measurements are used to properly, accurately, precisely determine the proper, accurate, precise placement, alignment with each of the components This 1939 "Hot Rod" truck has a custom frame, chassis, thus it is certainly much easier to determine and achieve the proper to optimum placement, alignment for these components. If, when You will use the describe, detailed, explained, proper method in the Jerry Bickel race car guide book including the proper details,methods with precise, accurate measurements, the proper, correct results will be achieved, enjoyed. this is very similar with the proper process methods which Your friend Scott from Arizona, that came to Your shop in Colorado thus showed, taught, assisted, with precise instructions, methods to achieve the upgrades with the [Gen IV ?] LS engine from the Gen 5 Camaro, for significant performance improvement, with such precision, accuracy, exactness throughout the build including the last bolts of the oil pan with the proper torque specification. Presumably, Scott showed, taught, performed a proper Cam and crankshaft alignment, timing per the specifications within the proper methods, along with many other details within the build, including the pistons, rings, gaping, connecting rods, all of the vale train components, valve lash, etc., though not shown. All The Best, Sincerely

@@newtonfirefly3584 Brah

Yup I think you’re correct

@@GARAGEIdiotS Hope that You can benefit from the Jerry Bickel chassis text for this 1939 truck project and each of Your vehicle projects too 😄

Will do!!

Glad I could help. Didn’t want to see you break the glass.

I don’t know if you can ☹️

Noted! Thanks!
