Garrett this is info you need. I worked on and maintained a Rip Chair 3.0 for a number of years, (its a wheelchair tank) Howe and Howe came down for the delivery and initial set up. Great bunch of guys! Their stuff is very well built, but very specialty and unique in setup, mill spec switch gear and unique one off computer controller hardware and software controllers. You need to call and talk to Daniel Rowe from H&H about possible software/programing upgrades. The speed limiter is a probably a controller limitation set in the accelerator switch programming limits, like line voltage #'s being sent from the pedal potentiometer. These can be changed. I had to reprogram a Hall effect sensor for a joystick repair on the Rip Chair. Daniel sent me the controller program (HGConfig-V1001-Executable) on a jump drive and a usb dongle to connect my mac to the RipChair. You NEED to have this stuff to run a H&H vehicle long term, and for future maintenance!

So cool doing dirt drags with a tank. You really need to set up that field as a dirt drag track, so you can do tractor, 4x4, Tank, and other types of dirt drag racing on it. It would be so cool to get people excited about different types of dirt racing again. Maybe even a dirt oval for sprint cars and dirt bikes. Even as Pay per View only, it would be cool.

Military Tank engine repair is super easy, aside from using a 1" drive socket set. There are quick disconnects for the electrical and pluming, and then just the mounting bolts. The engine and trans get pulled with a crane, and is brought to the engine shop for repair. It is replaced as a unit. One engine, one tank. The entire tank is super thick steel. The most important thing on a military tank is track maintenance. Again, with a 1" drive socket set, a sledge hammer and a tank bar. All the track bolts need to be checked every day. If one is loose it could throw the track. Putting the track back on can take 3 to 7 days.

@recoilrob324 2 года назад

Guys.....running a solid lifter cam in an all aluminum engine is always going to be needing you to adjust the valves because the pushrods are steel and they don't expand as much as the block and heads. So if you set lash cold...as you should...it'll increase a LOT when the motor warms up and things will start to get pretty noisy. Adjusting them hot like Dr Bend-em-all was doing is really kind of dumb...because when the motor cools back down the valves will be held open...as you discovered. Hard to believe that you didn't talk to Steve Morris about how he runs the solids on his motors. Why you are even messing with solid lifters on this motor is beyond me. There are hydraulics that will do what you need just fine. Set them hot with '0' preload then when the motor cools down the lifters will accommodate the contraction and it'll run like normal. I know you guys are young and still learning...please take this as a learning experience and think about what I just typed...it'll help you. Or ignore it and continue to thrash and be frustrated...makes for more entertaining video seeing you fail than succeed I guess.

Maybe you can shim the rotor on the hat to move away from your clearance issue and then shim the caliper as needed.

Why are you worrying about it? There are bunches of these junk yard videos out there anymore. They build or buy something, run the death out of it, get a bunch of views and sell some merch. It's the American way!

Yup pushing 60psi, definitely imagine a couple of the valves having a cry (mullet is in the category of super high maintenance.. I love it for race day) cant freaking wait till all you all doin passes at one event. . Bring on the Blazer 👍👍

@redsox63 2 года назад

Curious about Mullets engine…obviously zero expense spared when it was built but the comment “probably just needs better valves” was made. Can someone elaborate? It would make sense that the motor was built for high power and the cheap valves weren’t used. Thanks! 🇺🇸🇺🇸

@theautumnwind2152 2 года назад

"See if we can get some better valvetrain in there" probably just means not broken ones.

@aSinisterKiid 2 года назад

It's not that "cheap" valves were used per say but they were likely matched with the original build of the engine. Since then Cleetus has upgraded the Con-rods to aluminum and put new Frankenstein heads on it, but used the old valve train from the original build. So the valves and pushrods-rockers/springs were all focused around the original setup. Now that the heads are flowing better air and they can shove more than 35 PSI of boost in it, they need a more heavy duty valve train to match those needs. There is all kinds of wizardy involved with valves like sodium filled and titanium metal with thermal-nitride coatings and other exotic stuff. Certain exhaust valves do better in certain RPM range and all kinds of technical beep boop science stuff associated with specific uses and trying to match them up with your needs.

@Shiftheads 2 года назад

@@aSinisterKiid I would have figured the Frankenstein heads came with valves. Those things are not cheap and you'd figure they want to do their own lapping/seating etc

@redsox63 2 года назад

@@aSinisterKiid I’m certain nothing on that thing is cheap. Just caught me off guard when he said “better valves”. I figured they would have top of the line already in there.

Pro Tip to sound smart to you bosses. When you're using a washer to space something out don't call it a washer. It's a shim or shim pack if you use more than one. Good luck boys!

@jameslederer6465 2 года назад

Try putting spacers on the rotor hub to shift the rotor's position inboard. Its also possible the rotors are designed to float along the axle to handle the lateral flexing when turning. I'd check for that too.

You mentioned that this is the first generation of Ripsaw. Have some of these issue been improved in Gen 2 and can you take parts/ideas from later models?
