It is incredible how many hands touch almost everything that you use or buy. When you just buy a thing in a slick box it's easy to forget that there are dozens if not hundreds of people working with their hands to make that very thing you are taking out of the box. This is a great dose of perspective of what it takes to get that thing into the box.

Don’t give up on your dad. My dad was great growing up and then he started drinking heavily. We both were drinking heavily. We fought a lot. In Nov 1999 we were in a big fight and I hit him in the head. Not hard but hard enough for his glasses to cut his skin by his eye. The next morning he went to the ER and got stitches. It was very painful for me but it was a blessing in disguise. That afternoon he checked into a treatment facility and has been sober since. I got sober in 2005. We’ve had a great relationship since. Not that it was horrible but we weren’t good drinking around each other. If your dad is going through any of that, don’t lose hope. I hope y’all are able to work it out before it’s too late.

I've loved Holley carbs since I helped friends rebuild cars in the 70s, even if I didn't always know specifically what in the world it was doing. We started by rebuilding or modifying lawn mower engines for go carts and transitioned to car motors. The Holley carb for us was always THE part located at the top of the mountain for most car guys to attain because of the name and dependability. Even as they age, rebuild kits for them are [or were] fairly simple to install and then slap back into place on the engine intake. They weren't cheap by any means, even those obtained from a car salvage yard [if you could find them] but they worked nearly flawlessly and if there was an issue, it was generally because WE screwed something up! Destin -- another stellar video and I know you're busy but I do miss your videos and ideas. Thanks so much for these and keep them coming when you're able.

It's beautifull to see such a recognised brand, just open their factory for us to swatch without any weird secrecy or limitations. They're extremely proud of their craft and don't need to keep anything for themselves, just pure engeneering for our enjoyment. Well except the blurry part, but that's just specific settings of the carburetor.

@nicbrownable 2 года назад

I don’t think that they need to hide much. It is a mechanical product, so competitors could easily open it up, measure everything and replicate it to a reasonable degree of precision. You can’t hide function without destroying repairability and adjustability. What they will struggle to do is understand *why* every design decision is made as it is. People can clone, but likely not improve.

@YOEL_44 2 года назад

@@nicbrownable Of course you could buy one and reverse engeneer it, but brands don't usually make it easy for us to do so, and this guy even talked about how easy is to repair with "non branded parts" their own components, that's an attitude you wont see in most big brands.

What's super cool about learning how a carburetor works is that it makes understanding how fuel injectors work (indirect especially) very simple. A fuel injector in the most basic way is just a fuel bowl of a carburetor that is pressurized to force fuel up to the valves inside the injectors which open in time with the coordinating piston, either by mechanical or electronic means.

@Player-pj9kt Год назад

fuel injectors are mechanically simple but what's not so simple is the electronic sensor systems to tell the injector how much fuel to inject into the combustion chamber depending on engine conidtions

@holl0918 Год назад

Destin, your transparent carburetor was one of the coolest things I've ever seen. I was already familiar with Holley and Edelbrock carburetors as well as small engine carbs. I didnt think you were going for super complex air/fuel metering technology but just the simple fact that you were able to run an engine on basic principles of a bare bones carburetor and watch fuel atomization happen was awesome, so good job. Also, i had no idea Holley was right down the road from me (give or take 100 miles) in Bowling Green, KY along with the Corvette plant. Seems like a great combo. Keep up the good content 👍

I've used drill bits of his the size of human hair to drill custom jetting on Holley carbs modified to run on methanol/nitromethane mix and most recently fuel injection nozzles for a project on his old 66' Barracuda. My dad at age 16 worked as a welders assistant during the construction of San Onofre Nuclear and was introduced to fuesing powder while working in the main isophase and has a length of nuclear grade stainless coolant injection line meant for a buckle and now destined for the same project.

@Riverbend1752 2 года назад

I'm an industrial engineering student, so I'm studying how to make all these processes efficient. There is a lot of stuff that goes into improving these processes. There are lots of factors that effect production efficiency, so you have to gather a bunch of information, figure out what changes will have the greatest effect, implement those, and repeat. This factory is the culmination of many, many improvement cycles done over years or even decades. To answer the original question about the design of the factory and machines, plant layout and equipment selection is a 3-hour 400-level course at my university. I haven't taken it yet since I'm a junior in 300-level courses right now, but it goes to show you how much goes into those decisions. Plant layout and equipment selection are probably the two biggest factors in process efficiency, so companies pour a lot of resources into making sure they get it right.

@josepha4944 2 года назад

Many years ago when I was in high school I was driving a 1973 F-150 Ford pickup. It was running a little sluggish so my father bought a carburetor rebuild kit. We worked on it together pulling one small part and replacing with a new part and we did that for two and a half hours. My father passed in 2010. This video brought back a lot of wonderful memories. Thank you for making me smarter every day.

They didn't seem to touch upon the venturi in the venturi part of the carburetor. Maybe the ones being produced didn't have that piece? I have good memories of my Holley 750 vacuum secondary carb (I seem to recall model # 3310) that I installed on my 455 Pontiac back in the 1980s! Mine had a mechanical choke which was annoying. I like what I see with the new Holley EFI systems, and would love to install one on something someday.

This episode struck home for me. I remember many a day working on my dads 4-barrel Holley carburetor that was in his 1986 Ford F-250 with a 460cu engine. He would have loved to tour that plant, and I would have loved to go with him. He is one of the reasons I chose to be a diesel mechanic. I can't believe that I hadn't seen this episode. I am glad I found it, and I look forward to seeing the fuel injector one.

This video, explained something to me months ago, that I remembered a day ago, and it's one of the few times I can say that something I learned on the side, just for fun, actually had a father large impact on my life.

@baconsarny-geddon8298 2 года назад

Especially seeing as carburetors have basically been "obsolete technology" for 20 or 30 years (since Electronic fuel injection/EFI became the norm). IIRC, the last mass-produced American car that came from the factory with carburetors was in 1990. Seeing a large, busy factory building 2 barrel carbs in 2021, is (sadly) like seeing a busy factory building horse-drawn ploughs in the 50's, or still making 8-track casettes.

@bryanhumphreys940 2 года назад

@@baconsarny-geddon8298 More like making turntables, there's still a market and there's still a reason why you might want to own one. I'm sure they aren't cranking them out as fast as the '70s but there's still a demand for classic cars, race cars, as well as small engines, etc.
