maybe for those who wondering how much the truck engine weight. although the engine size , and the 'look' on Lada pretty much explain how heavy the truck engine is.. 😄
Given that in a *modern* car (with stock engine) the difference between having a 100kg total driver and passenger and a 150kg total driver and passenger is very noticeable on the suspension, having 330kg of extra engine certainly will make a difference.....
Looking at it that way, true. But the simple fact is, 330 extra kg over those 2 little tiny tyres is a LOT of extra mass.... Certainly WAY over the safe loading limit of the tyres. That car would have a max payload of around 250kg. Therefore the engine would make it overweight even with NO driver and NO fuel!
that would be pretty funny if they went that route lol. I still think if they went this far with it make it into an off road beast! put some military axles on it and big off road tires it'll go anywhere they put it!
They're not necessarily Soviet era. The 2104, 2105, 2106 and 2107 were made well into the 2000's, and even a mid-2000's car might look like it's 30-40 years old.
@@CMDRSweeper you are correct, sir. Back in the day we started by translating Best Motoring vids to Russian (I actually wasn't part of the team back then, I joined a bit later), hence the name.
Rotary into Corvette? Loads of vids, over a month of work, everything seems to be a trouble. 7 litre ZIŁ engine into lada? One video and engine installed, wired up and fired up in the car. Russians are engineering gods.
Lol. I rather sit in a rusty 1500 with the original engine than this shitty V8 what is did to the views. And the Corvette will be a weapon altough this will be aaaan engine with 4 wheels.....
Awesome!! "Thumbs up or down I don't care..." Best attitude ever, you guys rock! We do stuff like this in the US, but it's hard to get ahold of tank engines... Thanks for the videos, cheers!!
OK, so It's a 7.0l truck engine with a Lada car around it. It has been assimilated. In 'Merica we call that a sleeper. You guys are master shadetree mechanics. Awesome work.
I thank God for You. Since I was a kid, I was always wondering what would be like to swap truck engine into the car, and now thanks to You, You make my kid dream come true. Thank You Garage 54 You are the best! :)
Brilliant concept fellas, combined with great voice over translation and cool garage crew.. turns it to an epic show. You can always count on the Russian if you're like extreme and crazy stuff. No pain, no gain right?, whatever it takes. Awesome
When I want to watch a quality build I go to the Skid Factory... when I want to have a laugh and be amazed that it works at all I come here. You guys are insane! Love your channel!!!
what madness! with that engine it is not necessary to lower the suspension. I would put the battery in the trunk so that the weight distribution is 50%. And I would also make a small hole in the hood lid or it will not close. 😂😂
great video as allways, yall are some expert mechanics, like DAUUUMMM, i REALLY like your attitude too, none of that pc cant do this bs. and the video editing in this is even better than linus tech tips even! sad too see yall are myth buster levels of famous. I would would watch yall over that anytime.
Am I the only one who appreciates how much time and effort goes in to the videos never mind the time edited the real life time it took to do this engine swap everything involved and the editing time of the video to make this content ❤️❤️❤️
