Life Gets Even Harder Yet! 😳 

When I was a young man my dad told me "Cheer up things could get worse", so I cheered up and things got worse.

Steve should be proud of how far Kyle has come.

It really says a lot about Steve's reputation that someone from France is having his engine built here by the Morris fam and sent all the way back across the Atlantic. Shoutout to Kyle, really growing in his skills and doing so well.

Being in the ventilation business for almost forty years that dyno room could use some more makeup air, it’s closing the vent lovers .

I assume anyone who dislikes got beat by one of steves engines lol

That's life when you're at the top of your profession!

Shit happens when you're pushing the envelope.

That Hemi is one beautiful jewel. Hope to see pics of it in the car

I bought a bill mitchell block for my turbo charged max wedge built. The porosity in the main and cam bores covered about 15% of the surface, all of the threads had the peaks ripped out, and there was an entire 2"x1" chunk welded back onto the corner of the oil pan rail before it was machined. When I finally convinced him to accept a return he bitched about the orange paint marker I used to circle the welded area because he's just going to sell it to someone else. Bought a keith black block for $1000 more and it's leaps and bounds better in every aspect including customer support. One of the core plugs had a damaged thread, when I called them they sent an entire set free of charge

Its crazy to see how far these guys have come with being comfortable and being themselves on camera than when they first started. Keeps getting better and better.

You’re not the best because you are perfect every time you’re the best because you are there till the end and make sure it’s right before it goes out to your customers.

Good job Kyle... getting more comfortable in front of the camera...

Having spent 30 odd years in the motorsport game you quickly learn that when playing with horsepower, sometimes the horse kicks you in the arse.

Just saw you leaving the freedom factory! You’re the man Steve!

You own it, and learn from it. As long as it doesnt happen again, its a learning experience to make everyone better.

The local Gendarmes here in France will absolutely love him when it hits the street. That’s after he’s paid an absolute fortune to get it into the country.

You’re a true pro Steve to fix someone else’s mistake. The frenchies took that engine to the right place. 👍🏻

I can imagine this in Europe. It will be a head turner. Wow.

Be kewl if the owner, would share back or post his own videos once he gets the engine in France…

He'll never be late for French toast again! 😆

Fast an Furious 🖤🤙

Can’t remember the last time I seen a 14-71 High Helix from BDS. Those are pricey units + polish. Gonna blow the hides off the Charger.

If it happened when he got it back in his car, THAT would have been a bad day. Great job, Morris's! 😄

The dyno room window shure is clean!

1600hp for a street car. WOAH

View through new window is crystal!

My favorite clip in your into is Steve and his wife. That's true love..

Pretty cool y'all let the owner get his hands on the guts of his own mill And its real good you guys caught the issues during dyno break in .

When hard times happen just think,,, it could be worse , And prepare because its likely to get worse ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, God bless you guys for doing what you do ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Glad Dewey isn't stressed out!

Thanks for the teaching

Awesome video guys enjoy watching them thats tough seeing sleeves drop in it damn !

Really sucks when you can’t even rely on/assume someone before you did their job correctly

Just have to remember, you still have a dream job.. all of us mechanics have the same struggles day in and out. It’s a passion and a curse all in the same week.. but that’s what it takes to be successful

You guys rock. Thanks for the video.

Tough times, makes tougher men!!

Wow; that Hemi is like one giant piece of polished jewelry ! Sorry about the sleeve issue. Your customer has been treated very well and is happy ; so congrats to SME for that. Great video and many thanks.

Just great to catch It on the Dyno.

Awesome video and details. Great job guys !!

Man I want to come hang out for a week such a cool job love your videos keep em coming love it.... cheers from idaho.

I have a patch that says "it gets worse before it gets worse." Sounds like it fits the moment.

Awesome

it happens Steve... you don't want it too, but sometimes it does!! You just gotta roll with the punches!!! Thanks for sharing!

Love the apron! MAN COOKING 😂

Great content thanks for sharing

Hi to the Morris family from Bradenton

This channel produces some of the coolest damn PERIOD!! And it also shows never friggin give up, not just because of the din and such, but just in general.!!!

Great video Kyle.

Watching you guys from France, i'm amazed to know a fellow countrymate is going to have one engine from you in France!

Niiiice Piece guys!!! Wellll Done!

Keep pushing on it'll get better with determination.

Cool to see the young dudes

Nice work Kiel

That machine sounds so beautiful on that dyno.

Crazy for a car in Europe. Great video once again. I feel your pain having things go wrong. At least you have a plan!

It would be awesome to hear the awesome pulls from the other side of the wall 😁

Always enjoy your content. Props to Steve, Kyle and staff. Keeping it real.

What a sweetheart of a engine hopefully you guys will show some pix of it when it’s done

Very efficient engine! I dig it

Save me Jesus rock. SAVE ME!

Man that Hemi is sick. Great job tuning and taking care of your customers. Its nice you guys share data and plugs.

3rd! Love what y'all do ❤

When the going gets tough, the tough get going.

You could mount some cameras in the dyno cells and offer a live feed for your customers when you test the motors you build.

Another great video, with valuable info! Yeah things weren't the best, but they could have been worse, at least there was no damage and the customer was understanding!

I have to say Steve you have put together an amazing team, So professional and gifted. I’m so impressed with your operation.

At least you found the issue before it left....sucks but itll be right

Boy I’d love to see that running in the charger. That’s a really really nice piece.

That's a bummer on what happened... .... But freaking awesome to see someone from Europe, come all the way to the USA just to help build is engine, alongside you guys!

Thank goodness didn’t have to change rod length or piston with having to mill the block.. or a new sleeve set i know only couple thousandths but things add up quick when thinks go wrong $

Man I love those electronic torque + angle wrenches!

Nice job Cody and Kyle !

The thing is you guys overcome and adapt and fix the problem and make it right some companies have lost that value

Good to see Kyle taking over on the video. Great job guys. So cool customers in France💪

Sounds awesome 👌 👏 👍....keep living the dream ✨️

Yep I get it,I bought a t shirt!,your ahead of me

Good job ,nice video really enjoyed it. Thanks 🇺🇸😎

Gen II Hemi the intake is the valley cover , wedge head BB Mopars use a valley tray ... FYI Steve you are a great person to work with , I wouldn't have expected that you were eating this one ... Hats off , I wish I could afford to have you do my Gen II ...

521 👍's up Steve Morris thank you for sharing 🤗

What a BEAST! Builds like this give me a Chubby!

Those are really impressive numbers out that beast. 1400 I could see, close to 1700 is amazing!

After 50 years in the business I found out long ago,it happens, especially when you rely on previous work by who knows who. We learned that lesson from having to relick the calf. I’m sure you will not forget what happened here as to not repeat. Always check everything possible. It’s good insurance. Nice facility and hope you get everything back up and working and it’s not too costly.

It just needed some Morris hands on it❤ should have been a SMX❤🔥💪🏼

Citroen 2-CV would be an insane swap ;-)

It is so cool seeing you leave room for these young guys. You are so smart Steve! But that is Steel and Aluminum guys, alu is always flexing regardless of argument.

Hi Dewey❤

Joe's a young kid assembling the hemi. Good for him, learn as much as you can.

We run into a problem almost every time we assume another party has done what they are supposed to and dont check the work. Unfortunately it is insanely time consuming to not only do your own work but check everyone else's

There’s no denying that’s your boy Steve. Spittin image of his old man, and the apple didn’t fall far from the tree!!

Kyle, excellent, knowledgeable, honest.... great team effort...Steve you should be proud...👍🇬🇧.

The Steve Morris experience = priceless!

Sweet hemi for damn sure!!!

One of the MOST difficult things is getting a new ready to run Chrysler block. Seems no matter who made the block you literally need eyes in the back of your head. I hope the new Callies blocks are better. Good find you guys, and great diplomatic relations with your French friend. No finger pointing going on, just let's fix it and git'er done. 👍

Sucks when we take for granted that other work was done properly and come to find out it was not. On a daily basis I get parts that are not up to part for one reason or another. Nothing to this level of building engines or repairs, but still the same concept. Issues with things outside of one's control that eats up time and money. Sucks.

New window look awesome man. Now get another George orwell quote!! I LOVE HEMI'S!!!

I had a tall deck aluminum BBC that the sleeves dropped twice in two seasons. Had to have the block decked after each rebuild....

Nice recovery glad your customer was cool about it. I would have cut the selves out and started over. But I have trust issues

My goodness nothing beats the way a hemi sounds or looks. My 409 looks pretty sweet but it frooze up during the winter. Between its just the rings. I have transmission fluid and marvel mystery oil soaking in the cylinders

Hopefully we’ll get to see some pictures of this in the car

It sure is shiny!
