Hell yeah brother, you're on the please before on YouTube channel Foreign foreign Moon foreign. Talk about full circle guys if you remember way back in the day when I broke Leroy's old C5 dip and we went to Chad's shop in Omaha swapped me this he's now buying Leroy's old Transmissions because Leroy obviously it's Transmission in the front now so that's full circle man it's pretty crazy. Yeah so well the old Freedom transmission is finally going to a new home What do we got going on here bucko. A lot of loose loosers not bolt loose but Loose on the Lash like there's no oil on the lifter.
All right, well got one head off. we still have a head gasket and we still have Pistons perfectly clean head gasket. Dude perfectly clean Pistons minus the carbon buildup. nothing so far I'm thinking all the damage between fund's gonna be the bottom end are on that other bank Papa doodle Bop this one off real dirty intake place already.
oh that's not good talking about this. See that shiny part? Yeah that means it touched this shiny part. Oh it did touch that shiny part. Ah we stretched, we lengthened the rod.
somehow it ate the bearing real bad. Started egg shaping that is that was rod knock that you heard it was pissed and clapping. Good spot on the shiny part. Did it knock out of alpha? It doesn't look like it, but it did.
Sucker was running fat. Yeah she started. uh chooching. pretty heavy on pump gas.
yeah I got traffic? yeah RPM Cleared out. Okay, all right. well let's roll it over and get the oil pan off one of these lifters out real quick. Let's see if we can see down at the camera.
10 over is gonna have to happen bigger. Pistons Incoming Oh shucks. Oh shucks. We're gonna put a big dog piston in it.
Definitely didn't want to do that right. George this will fit into Altima right? We gotta drop it at the machine shop tonight. Oh for real? Yeah, yeah. sucks.
see if we tore up our Johnsons besides a little bit of metal in the oil passing through it I Don't I Think they'll probably ride. We've seen these. We've seen these bad units. Oh now they're broke.
That one's toast. We've seen these things go through some pretty hard stuff and not die. They usually see this and then they go. Please send those back and then we run them.
Yeah, we run them again. I Love it. That one's down all the way. I Think we were low on oil pressure for a little bit there.
It stuck all the buried in there. We might want to send these out. Got some uh, some of that metallic for you. How did the oil look when you drained it like a bass boat? Oh and black.
Smelled like straight pump gas too. And that was fresh oil. Yeah, fresh oil changing that morning? Yeah, See this one. See all the metallic in there? Yeah, okay.
we should probably send those out this time. This time we'll send them out. bud. You ready for this? It's not gonna be too exciting because we got that to pull off.
That's what the oil looked like coming out when I drained it. Nice glitter. Look at it, look at how it's all just bonded up right here. Don't worry about that. Yeah, we're gonna have some cleaning to do. Pop that thing off. at least it's just a yeah. Getting ready to go like this with a rod tomorrow.
Well if this chain is loose too these darn forts. dude, they blow up quick. Yep, that's what I was gonna say. Time for us Chevy guys to bag on all these Fords now Ty these four is.
dude. what was that? Two runs this thing got. listen LS would have never done that I think it's a Chevy guy. Well that's one they got.
8 20 though. Yeah, yeah. bone stock. Curry LS Motor 820.
no problem so you can put one in it Go Seven's first real. There you go that's hot. oh that got warm. Oh yeah, is that the one that hit? Yeah, it is.
Ah, so we killed the rod bearing and I wonder if we had low oil pressure for a certain reason? You know, like why did we have low oil pressure? It's probably just a little bit. Six bolt. Mains Yeah, that's pretty beefy. Genius since 1994..
it's just. it does make me wonder why we killed the rod bearings. It could have definitely been the bypass valve clicking on or off. We didn't.
We didn't really do anything with it. It's supposed to be pulse width modulated, so we're gonna definitely fix that for this next round. But why we killed a rod bearing? We really don't know. Were we leaning on it? Yes.
But maybe the stock bearings are just too soft to handle all that well. If these are anything like the Coyotes? Yeah, Coyotes. if you don't put aftermarket rod bearings in. Oh, they stretch because they're torque to your old bolt.
Ah, so you get a little too excited, or you over rev them a little too high or your boots where you double the pounds of boost it's supposed to be at. Yeah, yeah, that'll do it. So guys, we have found a rotating assembly all ready for this. So what we're gonna do is strip all this crap out of here.
We're going to take this block to the shop. We're gonna bore a tenthau over our rotating assembly. Will be here mid next week. We're going to slap it back together and try and have this thing race ready pretty dang soon.
What do y'all say about that? Jackson Jump jump. He was not saying that when it was running. Dude. Yeah, Oh, it's a piece of junk it is.
Hey, all in all, pretty impressed guys. We'll be sticking these rods in the mail soon. We'll let you know when they're going to tell you this stocking list. We might have needed a wrist pin out of it because if it, it's non-forged piss and these come with.
but we'll never smoke a bearing like that. Hey yeah, to each their own from our Ruby days. I Don't think a stock bottom end LS could hold up any longer than this. I mean they died in about the same amount of time, but but they didn't go 820.
and we're making the same power but we didn't get only 20s. Yeah, and like a factory four-length style suspension and we didn't have a Lincoln we had a tight remember them tight converter days or yeah, seven minutes of spool? Yeah yeah, true. so five point, three, seven points. All in all, guys stock. Godzilla Great engine stock. Godzilla Rod bearings don't seem to be that great, which we know we were on the limit of the rods anyway. they're not very big as you can see, so we've already made it to that point a lot faster than I Thought we would, but we're gonna be putting a aftermarket bottom end of this. Godzilla This week y'all about lost your piston.
Wait, where's the bearing boys? That thing's done. It's gone. Can it make it past the oil? Sporter Damn Rip dude, these are cast. These are cast.
the Pistons forged though. Now they guys look pretty cast to me. They're casting just post machine stores. Nothing's straight.
Wait, what? What'd you just say? Still looks a lot stronger than a LS one that's styrofoam. Oh did you hear that Say that like three more times? Yeah, but we don't got Barons uphill stock. Yeah, because your wrist pin fails first. Yes sir, that's our fusible link.
Our fails. It falls off the rod going through the block is the Fail-Safe You ain't gonna replace crankshaft every time. It's really cool. All right.
We're getting her in the old uh work truck here. Oh, don't scratch it. Here we go. Then I'll push the seat.
Hang on. I Gotta need a little room for my tools. Get the other side and then I'll guide the toolbox. We'll pull it over to one side.
Ultima Dude, put your Godzilla on that rig right to the Machine Shop Here we come. Foreign.
All I see is the Taledaga Nights scene with that windshield sticker.
I started to watch your content again because you are playing with more of the BLUE OVAL products.
that damm music ,straight from the bowels of the devil
Didnt the BBC blow within weeks of being refreshed lol I cant count how many Ls engines yall been through lmfao
Can someone explain to me why there's a gap in between the bore spacing on the block deck, that looks like a potential week spot for blown headgaskets later down the road
I blame the mechanical failures on the mechanics… and the fun of going fast… Jack stand, if you really want to go fast…. Hemi…
The McDonalds mafia strikes again! Don’t poke the clown!
I mean ls are based off a ford engine…
ITS FORD!!! IT CANT HANDLE CLEETUS FREEDOM.
Just paid off my car the beginning of this week… looking to do forged rods and pistons and a few other upgrades. It's crazy to see an engine come out and already be apart in a day… I'm sure it's possible with the right tools and a couple people to help though!
The bass boat reference didn't quite hit till they flipped the pan. OMG oof
That was some serious forbidden glitter
Is there going to be a mullet carnage video?
