Yeah. Brother you're on the policeman for on youtube channel. Well guys mullet's's going out the door and i can't tell you why unfortunately the people see soon enough. But he's going to just do a little stunt like just consider it a music video appearance.

But it's not a music video. Okay so let's fire this thing up. We all clear me in yep. So here's the deal.

It's just got to do a burnout for this weekend's deal. So i want to make sure in a little burnout spicy. One we'll go medium spice medium. Spice.

I thought that smoke was from the engine. No it's just your tire smoke catching you that wasn't good. I don't know why it's shut off still off. Yeah everything's still attached it's got fuel in it.

Too. I filled it up for paul black. See if it says anything should tell something felt awesome for a second all right instantly with them that's for sure. It's got oil pressure and fuel pressure.

Yeah lost rpm. That's weird you just cut out for a second that was enough to shut it off. Oh. I remember the heck out of it so yeah.

It's weird just try that again yeah. This is why we do we do tests. We must have that uh that hose that it was burning the whole race week. Hey.

That burnout was thick the spicy rip. Well at least. We found two problems in that small amount of time. Yeah.

This line on the boost controller. The one that goes down all them horse tours dude keep blowing our little plastic line. Though. Wow.

Yeah. It wasn't a light burnout by any means not much left of these tires bob. There wasn't much left thought i'm going to put them on there. But they're definitely a lot now.

Oh that was uh a spicy rip. It's probably not like a new burn out boy that big block power. Yeah and the horse torx jack stand. There's an open lift here.

But i know we got a project in the parking lot yeah. That's right and you know leroy he ain't ready to go on lift. Yet so we can't justify putting him on here because we know ty's got another couple six months on that you know we should bring in i know exactly let me let me get a glimpse of it by the way. That's not our gto for everyone who keeps wondering that that's andy from motion raceworks.

Cto. That though we bring that in that their fox. Body mustang notch. Back wheelie mobile.

Soon to be i'm. A wheelies. Maybe. Well they're fast and possible.

It's gonna go fast all right let's pull it in dude. Oh. My god you guys already wrecked it right in the center dude. That was a pristine black paint job.

Oh man. I am not excited to dig into this crap are we leaving the bright red interior. Let's just have mr. Sam clean it up oh my gosh all right let's push it in there see if this engine's gonna fit kick it like you mean.

It george oh. This thing feels light all right you're good oh well look we're barely barely hungry the mirrors don't fall okay car you got nikes on yep yeah i got vans on damn look at that fox body mustang in the shop i'm scared i don't know what to think about this you excited ty i'm so excited big mustang guy hold up dang new project. I love it it's got that new project. Smell it smells old and crusty and a little rusty just get rid of all that where are we cutting just cut right here below the cowling throw it out you're done floor gone yeah.
But how far forward do we cut. I mean it depends on how far you want to go if you just want to do like a light little front half yeah cut it right at the shock towers tube. It out kind of like we did with toast tube chest that sounds nice nah carbon fiber flooring no no no no no you're crazy get out of there lots of titanium. We're doing some easy titanium easy cuts.

We don't need another 98 000. Race car you know what i mean we're going to see how this engine fits through the paint literally coming off on my hand. Let's raise this thing up i want to see underneath. See.

If there's any major rust issues. It's like these things were designed to be race cars look at all that room in that tunnel. Yeah the engine bay. I mean.

It is just by design factory race cars they're really nice except for this rear end. I don't think that's going to get us real far. Yeah. That ain't going to do much uh james did you see it has fresh tires on it they're brand new dude check that out give her some clicks hold on we gotta.

See how tight that rear end is oh my gosh you sure you don't want to run that should for at least a thousand at least a thousand overall pretty solid you see any major issues down here no it looks pretty clean. I mean frick we got ourselves a race car there's a floor car so there shouldn't be any crazy rust unless they drove it in this just tore up a little bit. But that's okay because we're gonna cut that right out that's right. We don't need that where we're going are we going to set this thing up for some street driving too absolutely.

But just light street driving. We don't got to go crazy with radiators and stuff. So let's keep everything kind of small yeah. Everything white.

Yeah now you're talking just e85. No crazy nothing yeah running out of ignite ignite right crazy fuel until we start making crazy power. You know yeah well the goal is a thousand off the hits on ignite is more than enough fuel all right well let's grab the old godzilla engine out of the crate and see how it fits up in that engine bay and guys just so you know this car is going to be stick shift we have not decided on exactly what transmission yet. But it is going to be a stick car.

Which is really exciting so hoping to have another eight second stick car would be the goal. So if you guys saw a few videos. Ago we have the 73 liter godzilla engine that we were trying to decide what to put in obviously we've chosen the fox body. This thing's been sitting over here just waiting oh we got our engine left.
Say hey you got a godzilla. Let's see if this lift plate works. Okay so we got a. Motion raceworks lift plate that might work we got this big old 73 liter.

Godzilla engine and we're gonna try and stuff it in the fox. Really doesn't look that big now it's out yeah not that huge i'm so impressed by the head bolts dude and the thickness of the actual head like they're pretty beefed up these manifolds. Too. I mean are these designed for a turbo kit.

Or what like uh your basic cast turbo. Manifolds flip them around and plumb. You some food. I say we use them see how much we can make with them i have to i mean.

The flanges look like you can just you know we should just try and use as much of this engine as we can before we start getting crazy and just going all after market. I mean. There isn't much aftermarket out for it so yeah well there's a decent bit of stuff. But yeah we'll see what we can make happen well the stuff that's out there ain't cheap.

I don't know if you've seen those intake manifolds or not no i haven't seen one that hasn't been under four thousand dollars. Yeah. I don't know we're gonna try and use that stocky for a while look at these i know they're nice. That's pretty nice.

Oh wow looks very familiar yeah. It looks like an ls rocker. Right there yeah. But that's that's unique looking look how tall that's swinging.

I know damn turns out you can put a ls lifter in this johnson lifters tie bars drop right in this bad boy. You got a set for it right there all right cool well. We just want to take a look down in here looks good man you got the thickest chain. We got this is like a 47 000.

Pound ready to change because this is not a light bulb. This is not a light setup. Iron block. Yeah yeah.

I know you said you wanted a white box. Oh. My goodness it is heavy dude holy crap. Yeah.

You said you wanted the car to be light. But with this here going to be heavy. That's all right the car is light and make up for the big heavy engine buddy what you doing there jackson pulling that thing off the boat everywhere. I look.

It's got a gm part number sharpied over and they stay at the forward open scribbled over top of it come on this is going to last the whole time backing on the godzilla this thing gonna run five second quarter. We're going to be like yep dude. This thing's never worked so hard. Oh dude.

We're gonna have oil easier with mullet's big blocks dude. It's got some weight rail over here scream on an ls look right here look. It says he just walked away fourth out you know i just stamped. The forward on it damn good.

It is really just like well they fix all the problems doing a lot of pumping a long way up since the ball yeah it does watch your hands. You're on your plate. You're on your cross. Member intakes out of the hood.

It's just a normal intake. Right now the oil paint and the headers are sitting on the factory k. Member. Yeah.
Member you'll be able to drop it down lower flip. These oil pans also taller than the freaking himalayas building down. There. So maybe we should get a different pan for it dude.

Excited halfway. There yeah. She's got dude look at this. Oh you got four feet down.

Here. The oil pan. Though. It's already lower than the k.

Member. Well that's going to change. Because the aftermarket k. Member.

Is going to sit longer than that yeah. But then the oil pan is going to be in the ground. If we get all over the game member oil pan. Is going to be through the core of the earth.

Honestly if it got if we move the steering. It'll go down two more inches. And you should be good you know we try to put a hood on it or something no no i like it like this. But i think the lower we get the engine the better better long term yeah we're doing uh standard style motor mounts.

No motor plates on this thing. Yeah. It's just your daily cruiser right here. We got a couple turbos that are off of old projects that uh.

We're kind of scoping out where we're gonna put it single turbo. Don't know exactly what the plan is but uh not a small one not a small one but just slightly big enough to blow this engine. But small enough that'll spool fast one of mullet's old turbos. I know i know what i was thinking things on the list.

We got to decide on the turbo. We got to get a radiator we got to get a rear end we got to get a transmission. The transmission should actually be here next week. So already worked on that and uh sooner or later.

I mean. It's gonna come together. We might as well start now with this k. Member stuff.

That's all ordered. So we got a tubular k. Member for the front half. We got control arms from trz same control arms.

We're gonna be running all this stuff so that'll be here in a week. And we will tune back in on the fox body project. But one last thing is we need to decide on a name for this thing. So drop.

A comment below let us know what you think. But that's it for now thanks for watching see you later you.
