Hey guys, today's video is sponsored by Athletic Greens. You see me talk about them before. This is an effortless daily nutrition routine that you guys need. Let me just show you how easy it is.

You want to grab one of your trophies that you won from the smoke and everybody at Fl2k I'm sorry if you're everyone else at Fl2k didn't get one of these freaking sick trophies like George and I throw in about you know, a splash, four to five, six, seven ounces, whatever you like. Give her a good mixing. There you go. You want to make sure you crush your Ag1 every morning? I Don't recommend using a trophy every day.

Such a bad idea. First time: I did an Ag1 ad I was proven how much energy it gives you because I did my ad at night about 9 00 p.m stayed up all night Maddie tried it too. We were laughing because this stuff really does give you energy. So if you're struggling to get through your day and you're relying on energy drinks which we all know give you that short burst of energy.

You should really try Age One because it helps me power through my whole day with ease. I Don't get bogged down in the afternoon since you're right here on the box. Ag-1 is a comprehensive, convenient daily nutrition with 75 vitamins, minerals, and Whole Foods sourced ingredients. And if you're like all of us and you're lacking in your daily nutrition like I said, it's time to try out Ag1.

And guys, if you visit Athleticgreens.com Cletus which is also linked in the description below. they're offering a free one-year supply of vitamin D and K and 10 travel packs. So that's Athletic Greens.com Cleatus Thanks to Athletic Greens for sponsoring today's video, let's get to the live action. Hell yeah brother, you're on the please confirm you Channel Listen up guys.

The number one asset at this point to getting McFlurry done has been a fellow by the name of Brian Wolf and he is now come in more clutch than ever before because if you look down here, we have a set of rods and pistons to go back in Mcflurry's engine. Actually probably the number one asset to get him before he's done is that guy Ty right there. But engine wise Brian Wolf Coming in clutch again. remember he's the one who sent us the tensioner and all the random little parts.

We couldn't find no more limitations of booster. RPMs Now boy, aluminum rods boys for McFlurry So we were gonna find another set of steel rods, but we were like, shoot, we might as well go aluminum. A little bit lighter and obviously a lot stronger. So now the bottom end will be the strong point and the head gaskets will be the weak points.

So and then we got a set of Diamond Pistons which is basically what we have in every vehicle. those are main Burns There you go, Dude. Yeah, a set of main bearings. nice piston.

So these are big dogs. ten thou. Overstock so we had to send the block up to Fast Forward Race Engines to get that all dialed in. Got some nice coating on there and a little bit of coating on that thing.
Are we gonna block off the oil spurters in the block? You think? I mean we came. We can. uh, we can crimp them. Oh yeah, we'll just find a bowl that's the same size thread is that and run the Bolton with someone.

Ah, there you go. What we got here. That's a Thrust bearing. Wow.

so guys, all this stuff is already set up and balanced to this stock crank right here. The aluminum rods and some bad to the bone. Diamond Pistons Going into McFlurry this week to hopefully make it streetcar takeover which is on Saturday but we'll see. Yeah well well, it de-escalated even quicker.

so you know you got to do what you got to do. Yeah, McFlurry escalated so fast that the engine needs this one. but it's not an Escalade it's a Mustang it's a little crusty. clean that up fresh out the Fresh Off The Mill Dude, there's a unit now we can let the Boost creep let it creep up against now.

boy let the Moose creep. And then last thing, we've had these fuel tank injectors waiting around to go in Southern and McFlurry escalated so quickly. Now Mcflurry's gonna have 520 pound injectors because we were right on the edge of those other injectors. so all right.

So today, me and Sam which used to be a machinist right here. He's worked a lot in a machine shop. How many years? Oh my goodness. half of my life I Got 20 some years in the Machine Shop A big old shout out to the fellows at Johnson Lifters, We are back in Action Fresh set of drop-in lifters.

Those other ones are full of metal. You guys doing some measuring making sure everything's good. Getting ready to go through the mange right now. Make sure that's okay, then you have to get a little disassemble here.

Checks out good, which it will sweet here. I Grabbed one of the old rods. grab one of the newbies. you don't want to do that.

that's a unit brother. that's a unit. So that's another thing we got to check. They say they'll clear but a lot of blocks you have to, you know Mill out a little bit right here.

yeah and just so it can rotate. but they say these fits. That's one cool thing about the guys though. And did you notice on the on the other rods? they're all pretty clean.

The bearings yeah, we didn't bend them or anything. it's just the one. just the one. So that one said I'm out of here today.

All right. So I got this thing all ground down in the parts washer. It's gonna be clean now. as you can see, we got some metal in our grease which this thing is very very hot so it's gonna clean all of that metal out.

Then we'll blow the block all out and WD-40 it so it doesn't rust. We'll let this puppy run for probably about 20 minutes so we just go back here. Boom. 10 minutes.

Next thing you know, while we wait we hydrate Cameo Live action Update: Okay, what we've done was this on this Cadzilla motor here and we said let's go through. We got all new pieces. of course it's all good forward parts, but we just wanted to double check some of the clearances and see where everything's good and everything's great. That's exactly what they said.
So this should be a spinner. That's what I like to hear Brother It should be a spin around here. Foreign, foreign, foreign. Right now the ice cream machine is not working.

Guys quit asking. Okay guys, we have reached the point where the engine is ready to go in McFlurry Zach and Sam Knock this puppy out. Push rods are the right length Luckily Everything went together pretty much perfect. So we are now in thrash mode.

Street car takeover has already begun next door, but drag racing only starts tonight and then tomorrow today they're just roll racing so we're gonna try and slap this engine in and be ready for tomorrow. Foreign. So if you have a coyote or a Godzilla engine, you can buy these from Ocean Raceworks. You pull that factory quick release breather piece out of your stock valve covers and then you can just spin this in.

it just pops right in like that. and then you can put a 10 a.m breather hose right to your breather which we're stealing one off. A ruby engine is in. Guys: turbos are hung.

We are plugging and playing. Zach's in there just finishing up some wiring stuff. We're looking really good. We got the big fuel Tech injectors in this puppy.

This thing should rip. So guys we also up the regulator pressure on the trans brake. Listen to this unit. Here we go.

Suckers moving that trans brace. And now guys, now that we have aluminum rods and a built motor, we're setting our rev limiter all the way up at 8 400. those are some Ford numbers right there that's going to be ripping this first fire up new motor. That thing sounds tight.

This is good dude. All right. Oh yeah, dude, that looked like it was about five to ten degrees before there goes nothing. Go ahead dog.

Foreign my boy. Dude, that's software. They're doing a good job doing a great job. Great success.

Let's go Dude: I Forgot we even built it. It felt like a normal startup. Oh dude, that's all you making. 85 pounds oil pressure you and Sam well it's good I Didn't think about it because I didn't even sweat it.

That was like 18 degrees of timing which it looked like 18. Yeah, it's about a yes, we're eyeballing it. Yes, we don't really got a plenty. Perfect.

We can measure circumference and degrees and draw some things. but we're going to the track. Hey, let me pop this thing. I might spray on you.

Oh really? I mean I definitely don't think it circulated any water. Why does it? Uh there It is. Awesome! Thank you Foreign Man! She is back and better than ever. Super solid oil pressure.

We're gonna dump the oil out of it just because you know there's gonna be a lot of glitter just in places we couldn't get to. Hopefully the filter grabs some and whatever was in the lines that we couldn't get to. you know, makes its way out. We're gonna put some fresh oil in it and head right over to the drag strip.
That's it for now. Thanks for watching it for now. We'll freaking see you later. Foreign.
