NO MORE HEMI FOR BLASPHEMI! (BLUETOOTH ENGINE MOD) 

As soon as we get from drag week the caddy comes back to the garage. Hoping to have the engine soon.

I was thinking the same thing .

@@FinnegansGarage Can’t wait to see that too!!!

I own a 65 Coupe Deville so I'm pumped to see the Caddy get finished.

@@FinnegansGarage maybe one day soon you can run all or atleast all the big Drag and Drive events in one year I would especially like to see you go on Rocky Mountain Race Week and take on the reigning champion of the Gasser class over there and I think he also enters in the stick class but it's the guy with the car he calls Ole Yeller and it's like a 53 Chevy Bel Air with a twin turbo LS in it but I would like to see the two of you go at it all week

What happened that the engine let go

Sometimes even the best parts can get taken out by having other problems. The last engine was good and should have lasted quite a while. But, they had a trans shifter problem so ended up over reving the engine and killing it.

@@matthewklein9225 During the thrash to get ready for Rock Mountain Race Week, they installed the shift lever for 1st/2nd backwards. So they were launching the car in 2nd, then shifting into 1st. Bad news for an engine.

@@joelclancy3776 you know what. I remember that. Thank you.

this is the 2 second time around ( must work better as a combination ) for the t56 transmission as the 5-speed was the replacement for it. hopefully he doesn't money 💰shift it like last time or pull a lerory and or has lockout's as h-patterns + 6 or 8 gear's choices can = more valve's crunchy 😉captain. don't get me wrong my personal mopar is rocking a TR6070 but im mindful of stupidity

Great refresher. Making it more street-able makes sense. Inspirational to get my 55 4dr going.(transmission rebuilt)

All you need is the tool that crimps properly. Nico press. For the 1/16 cable you can get them I pliers. Black cable and copper sleeves. Professional.

Hi you would'nt happen to know who makes that sander?

@@williamrullman7063 525 Industries 360 degree Tubing Sander Attachment. I believe he had an earlier video showing this thing way back when

@@vincentfauconnier1460 it was how he found to removed powder coating

Just yesterday I was wishing I’d bought this tool for the project I was working on & couldn’t remember the brand! Timing is everything.

@@vincentfauconnier1460 thankyou

F=M x A

It's also going to be 8lbs helping prevent the wheelie so it might just even out

@@mrastleysghost no, it won't.

I disagree.

Yes,indeed

I like it

Gold lugs and centers would be nice, too.

They definitely need something because right now they don’t begin to fit the car

Gold pin stripe is a good idea cause yeah I was looking at the wheels too and thought it just wasn't right. Better than the screaming chrome but black on black is just too quiet. That will make for a nice pop but not too much.

For sure a hemi will always be more expensive but at the end of the day you will always be able to produce more power than anyone else

This dude hates being white.

Agreed. I think just dull magnesium silver would look great on those wheels.

In an off road jeep magazine few years back they did a special coating... It wasn't gold, it was more bronze but that wasn't the color either. Can't explain that particular hue but I think it would look perfect on this car. Let me see if I can find more info on that particular wheel coating process..

I’m usually not a fan of black wheels, but in this case I’m a fan of the more “evil” look he’s going for with them. No show with the wheels, just business.

Best thing about wheels is that they simply bolt on and off. The wheel "look" is so very subjective, totally up to the owner. They can always be changed! I got a set of old ET mags, each 15x8, the real deal from the 70s. Dad bought em new, they been on chevrolet vans back then, a couple oldsmobile 442s just for the "insta" of the time which was poloroid. LoL! They been in the basement all these years and are still mint! No clue what to put them on next. They are the goofy uni-lug oval washer setup with flat bottom lug nuts to hold them on. When done right they didn't vibrate but I can see how the whole thing could go bad real fast. The center i.d. seemed to match most everything we tried them on so there is that. I have a set of centerline "pro stock" wheels from the early 90s. I think they still look ok. Polished rim and satin centers with the centerline signature smooth "rivets" holding the centers to the rim. Fronts are 15x5 and rears are 15x8 with a 4 and 7/8 offset. I ran mickey ET streets in up to 29.5x10 non Wide on those wheels with no problem. Wait one problem, they grew big time the day I went from 28 to the 29s... I was going rounds but the right side grew enough to chew into the leading edge of my wheel trim. At the time I decided it was worth it to sacrifice the trim so I cut it with tin snips and won my class that day! Thing is now those wheel opening mouldings are like $75 each for decent originals! LoL! All in the name of the timeslip!

I was thinking the same thing. That tube stock on the bottom may wear through the case as well from the vibration of driving the car. Lithium battery fires are bad news.

I was wonder if a lithium battery would like engine compartment heat,maybe not a issue on this car?

Also was thinking the same thing. Maybe add two more standoffs on the battery mount lid. Probably okay if you dont drop it hard on a moon toon run lol

Heel learn

It's Blasphemy. It's going to break even if it would be fine on any other car.

Agreed it just don’t look right on the black wheels

yep,those polished rears were just plain tough looking! with a matching pair up front would have been plain sick!!!!! oh and yellow lettering on maybe the rear? oh heck ya!!!

@@54raceman agreed the Halibrands were better in my opinion but its not my car

I just checked the cell datasheets and it seems like the LiFePO4 cells are indeed only rated to 60*C (140*F). If space allows, a bit of an airgap between the radiator and the battery would be much better for the battery.

Honestly, I would have mounted it somewhere on the firewall.

Yeah and nice battery acid venting all over the place. Can't stand em, go AGM at least. Some of the cars I've got are known for wiring issues under the hood,all corroded to crap. Mine doesn't have any of those corroded wiring issues,it's had an AGM since it was a year old.

@@MrTheHillfolk There's no acid in a lithium battery. The electrolyte is an organic solvent, wonderfully combustible!

This was always the plan he just used the roadkill part of it to get paid to work on his project car

Yeah that’s definitely not real well thought out for a drag and drive car. Unless he’s planning on carrying a spare and I doubt he is

Lithiums don't drop cells and suddenly die like lead-acids do. They usually fail through a gradual rise in internal resistance and loss of capacity, so the car will crank slower, and slower, and slower as the battery ages.

@@nerd1000ify but if it’s damaged somehow that’s an issue

@@robertnichols7637 yeah. Also in a frontal crash the battery might catch fire.

@@nerd1000ify that’s correct..something I mentioned early in this video & something I’m surprised I didn’t see anyone else mentioning…certain lithium chemistry won’t work under the hood because of heat…so hopefully 🤞🤞 that batteries stable while getting warm/hot!!

Where can I check this adjuster grips out? Are they like the ones on the jet boat steering cables I have?

@@FinnegansGarage ill shoot a picture of the ones I often use to your Instagram

I agree with you about the new wheels

"Heretic" is more like it!
