You are going to need a strong frame with that motor. Lots of slicing and dicing going on!

@BootedIV 5 месяцев назад

I love Bad Chad and the gang but, sometimes I question the thought process. The engine doesn't have to sit so far back and so high. Put the engine in where it belongs. Lower center of gravity, no chop up the frame. lots more room. The little Match Box car only has a visible hood scoop mounted back into the cowl. So put the scoop where you want it and duct it to the carbs.

@dkennylee 5 месяцев назад

I agree soon there is not going to be any more to cut lol but I'm sure he will figure it out. It can all be fixed . I get he is being stubborn on the scoop. But OMG that slot of cutting.

@marioncobaretti2280 5 месяцев назад

If this situation gets worse get a mid 70,s 2 wheel drive ford pickup. Take the 40 Ford body and mount it on the truck frame. Cut the frame as needed to set wheel base correctly. The 460 will bolt in with correct mount brackets. Frame is stronger and its easy to bolt in rear axle of choice. You can adapt that steering column to the ford power steering box.

Could of just widen out the cross and boxed it out making the transmission tunnel wider the torsion bars are going to need to be relocated as well to late now no going back it is what it is now not much frame left to reinforce. But I only build race car frames so what do i know. Even cutting it this way I think I would have at least added a few cross members to keep the frame from moving until you can some how enforce the frame back

Hi Chad. Love the work. The old x frame cars never handle well. It’s always better when going with more horsepower to use a more modern full frame. The x frame cars will twist the frame. Just a suggestion. You could run two rails from front to back on both sides. Just easier to find an old car or truck with a full frame. Use an old crown Vic cop car would give you a great suspension system. Thanks for the video Jolene.

@danielplummer6385 5 месяцев назад

Hey Chad, Jolene, Doug, & Fina! Moving forward everyday little by little sometimes quickly and sometimes slowly! Chad it sucks to have to cut new flooring out but, that's life for you. When you put the floor in you had no idea that you were going to end up with that much engine! You will really have to reinforce that frame or it will twist like a pretzel! Doug nice job tackling all the cutting and getting rid of Chad's nemesis Mr. Grinder, he has hated that grinder since the day they bought it! Jolene great work as always, you are Queen of the camera and production! Fina the shop forman was keeping a careful eye on Chad and Doug!

@larryparrish7780 5 месяцев назад

suggestion: as I watched the filming yesterday, You could see the large area inside the back half of the fenders which are attached to the cab. Looking inside there I imagined a shelf with the battery stored inside. A bit of reinforcement to hold the battery in place and on the driver's side, the fuse box and voltage regulator mounted against the cab or a false wall. The way you cut the fender in two gives access to install many items where access would be minimal and not on the firewall (which is almost consumed by the engine install). Use your artistic brain Chad to lay it out and make the best of a new situation.

@richardwoody9928 5 месяцев назад

Chad must be feeling a little gun shy after Nate blasted him yesterday then tricked him into the danger zone. I just had to laugh when Chad asked Doug if he farted. Lots going on with the frame there. It's going to take a lot of boxing in to strengthen it back up to handle that big motor especially since it will be sitting mostly on the compromised frame. I'm sure you guys will work it out and it's going to be a bad ass ride.

@mrcards58 5 месяцев назад

Greetings to Chad and Jolene and the Gang! I love watching all of you one reason is because you do so many things old school and you are a genius at metal fabrication. Sometimes I want to just get up there and work at your shop and help you... I know you're trying to make this car like the Hot Wheels car.... but maybe that car had a small block or just a big block with a tunnel Ram manifold and the air scoop on top. That big block with that big type of blower could easily set near where it should in the front fabricate the scoop to set back near the windshield like a toy. With all that cutting on the frame I would definitely box it and strengthen it. Not trying to be critical, just helpful. I know this car is going to turn out awesome just like the rest of your projects.
