Hell yeah brother, you're on the pleasr YouTube channel Cold start. Woo dude I was thinking yeah, definitely doesn't sound as good as my Chevrolet I mean it. What' you say? it's faster I can't hear you All right? Well supposedly Cletus did 150 poles and now the transmission's acting funny. Go figure.

The guy breaks it for driving it after a weekend. Quit saying exactly. We know exactly what's wrong with it. So ballpark.

how many polls would you say you did over the New Year weekend I probably did 50, 40 to 140 I Swear to you I've never beat on a vehicle. That's hard since the C7 was my only vehicle. like I am just abusing this thing. Okay and it takes it now.

I Heard you say the transmission was acting up. It's not acting up. it has a leak. It's low on fluid.

We know this. Oh, it has a leak. Don't be bagging on while you were beating on her. It's got a little leak.

It got her a little toasty a couple times Now back to your other comment about not being able to hear me. It's a well-known fact that coyotes are the worst sounding engine. When they're cold started. you know they just sound atrocious.

Can I mean even Ty can probably agree with that. Ty Are you agree with that? Yeah, they're They're not good cold. the cold start on a coyote. What is going on Like What is that? It turns into like a 350Z for a minute and just but then they sound kind of good.

Okay also guys, in an effort to spiff up my daily, you can see I got the cloth XL interior in this thing. not ideal, you know for a daily I'm trying to have something little little nicer. so what? I got over here is a complete Raptor r interior so you know I got the Raptor r Now if I'm driving this, it's way faster. but it's still Raptor r So we got I mean 20 Raptor r interior.

makes me kind of sad cuz someone must have wrecked their r r Yeah we got this off of eBay and we got it's in great shape the beautiful seats. we got the sweet center console I I'm really hoping Zach can make that sh sh yeah I mean all these YouTube videos we got to make laptop that thing honestly is really nice make just don't ever just don't ever go look in that truck now cuz this is where game. So this stuffs out of a 2023 Raptor r that's 2019 so it is a totally different setup I'm not sure this part of the dash stuff will line up, but I'm really hoping everything just bolts in and we can kind of figure it out and that's going to do it for the F-150 this week. otherwise we're topping off Flues.

We got a race on Thursday against the Tesla van again and some other fast AO drive cars so we need her dial Leroy Perfect condition of course I mean we fixed that rocker. We do need a l of valves I would like to look into that make sure she's good. Do you want to disclaim what happened to your face really quick? because so you know guard that he's not the only guy anymore you know I got to go out they said you know jump to jump I cleared it you know by too much I landed flat, ate it broke my Vis around my helmet. oh you had a helmet on you of course I had a helmet on dude I'm so we're talking about J's New Year's party Zach hit the big jump, overshot it, overshot a little bit.

All right. So Leroy we don't even got to talk about the Champion is still good. we just have to lat the valves on it because that's why we lost that rocker because of lack of manance. I mean there's no way around it.

Probably the biggest project we have going is we're about to cut up mullet before sick week starts. Sick week it's a dragon Drive event hosted by Tom Bailey It's at the end of this month so I mean we don't have a ton of time look at Tai his eyes are already widening mhm because he knows he's some work ahead of him. What we're going to finally do What people have been saying to do for a long time I Know you guys have wanted to make this happen is we. We're going to get rid of this stock triangulated four length.

This thing still has Factory lower boxes in it. Yeah, so these fact Factory torque boxes are taking the brunt of a 6.32 qu Mile in a 3500 lb car. If that doesn't go to show how tough Chevrolet parts are I don't know what. she's come a long way.

Dude, she's done good. So the deal is this stock style suspension in this thing is just kind of a limiting factor like at: World Cup Remember how we were trying to go a little faster and we just couldn't. Hopefully a real four-link will help. A real four link should really help the car out a good bit.

I started putting x's on everything I have to cut out. Oh you did and it's it's everything. It's everything. Oh it's everything I Got to cut all.

oh you're cutting out these. Yeah, it's a lot. all it. Oh look, eggs, egg.

Oh okay, all right I see what you mean? That's all got to go byby cuz your new setup is the bars are going to be all the way up to about here on the new setup. X Here there's an X on the battery. Okay, so you're cutting all stuff out. Yeah, it's a big job.

We got a lot of cutting to do. now. We have a floater rear end in there. Why do people go floater rear end versus what we have? So it takes all the load off the axle flange.

So right now you have a flange on the end of your axle that holds it. Now you're going to a hub that holds the wheel and your axle is just an axle. Oh, is it's floating? Yeah. And then on top of that, you have endless adjustability coming.

Or if you look on this, you're already on the last hole in the housing. No adjustment here. You're already at the bottom hole up here and you're at the top hole of the house. there.

This four link. Essentially, we set it up like two years ago and we've never mess with it because we sort of got it to work. It's never been impressive. I Don't think we've ever even cut a 1060 foot in this car, right? Um, close 110.

It might have went a 109 maybe, but it's like almost. but it would have to be like the best track prep the world's ever seen to do it. So we're hoping with this new four length, we're going to have a little a little bit more freaking suspension to get the El Camino moving a little bit faster and we got it all right here. So let's open it up.

We're going to the goods first, going to the we're going to the Big one The Big Box Dude. Trz Performance Rear end. same one that's in it but this is their floater rear end so that's standard. 9 in I Guess you'd call it Yeah, it's a stand.

9 in like a new Ford bearing end. nothing special. It did pretty good for us. It did really good for us, has never failed only the diff has failed.

Packed in there nice, it heavy. Are floaters lighter? No. Oh so is that the Hub you're talking about? Yeah, Yep. Wow.

Yes sir. Damn that's crazy. And the bearings r on that? Yeah, that's your rings for your bearing and everything. Golly.

So all the way to the car and the wheel is physically on this bearing and the axle doesn't carry any low. Oh instead of it just being connected to a flange way out here on a 9 in the axle carries to the car and takes all the Shad of the car. Now it's just Axel's only job is spin so frees up a lot. There a lot of pressure on that bearing in theine this sucker is braced up.

Yeah, this is sick. Oh this is you. See that? Damn. you even got adjustable holes for your anti roll bar.

Oh I'm liking what I'm seeing. So big shout out to Trz for getting this thing done for us. That's a unit right? Hit a couple curls on that rig. dude.

Oh she doesn't look light. she looks heavy. Look at their new Billet Phill cat I know it's even the cap is sweet on that. Did you guys order one for the Blazer too? no that you didn't hear and Shop Clean up dude.

We crushed it, exploded it like those should be like the pubs and stuff. Oh I'd like to take a gander at one of those. whoa, that's that's crazy dude. Your break your Brak bolts to this.

Hub now instead of being slid on the so, the only thing that this studs do is hold the wheel. Holy crap. and then your axle goes through the center. D Damn yeah, that's gnarly.

Wow. So this three bolts. So like if you do break an axle, the rare chance you break an axle, it's these three bolts and you slide it out. slide it in.

You don't have to pull the wheel. You're saying it's like a NASCAR it's a NASCAR God dang. I Didn't realize we're going to be shaking and baking on that D I like name. When you go snout, rear end, it's kind of like a TVM break where you just get rid of all the drag.

So if you look inside that there's an inner and outer bearing race. So instead of riding right now, there's one bearing on the A and everything's trying to bow it, move it Flex it. so you go from that to point that frees up and Spins a lot easier. This is nice.

Now what do we got here? That's a wishbone kit. Ah cuz now that you got now that you got parallel bars, you need to keep the r from doing this just like Leroy Plan is guys. Ty's going to slap this stuff in. Be done tomorrow, be done soon.

And then we have Pete coming down with a professional suspension tuner. our boy Pete professional engine tuner bringing a suspension tuner and then we go to Sik Week. Pete's riding with me. We dominate.

We get a W We bring home a massive trophy. Oh boy, what do we have here Man I would say we're going to the scrap. You have enough metal here to scrap. Yeah, not enough metal to scrap it.

So we've decided to bring it back. Yeah yeah. I mean that was our only option was scrap it or bring it back as a race car. So we've seen the comments I know how you guys get if we leave a car neglected for long enough? You guys take to the comments and go crazy until we bring something back.

Well, we've heard enough so we're bringing Ruby back. We were just talking what are we going to bring on Sik Week? We're going to bring Mullet. Sounds like we're bringing ties Ranger And we were like man, do we bring Mcf flurry or do we bring the blue F-150 Well after just a little bit of debate we have, we decided to bring Ruby back in her current form and we're going to bring her out as an 850 car. So if you guys remember years ago, Jack Stand won the 850 class right? At We Rock Won it one time Podium Like two other times we did good in that class because of the way Ruby is with the transmission in the back and the stock control arms and things.

She really hates going 750s. Every time we try to turn it up to that level, we end up breaking a lot of stuff. So what we're going to do is keep it at a chill 850 and try and go back and win the original class that Ruby was built for and that's the only thing we can really do to have it back together in time for S week. Yeah, it's the only thing we can do with this we have.

We got Mullet, a big project. This is a big is, but not that big of a project that we can get done quick exactly. So we're going to dust her off. Let's roll her over to the main shop and see what we got to do to make this happen.

So I know for sure we're going to need a whole new wiring job on this? eh? Oh yeah. remember all the electrical issues this car had that got excited and cut it all out I Know fly pared so there's no just plugging it back in? Yeah, literally. the car has almost no wiring in it right now so Zach has his work cut out for him. We'll get a full breakdown here in a minute.

Oh, there's that axle that we love so much I just heard it pop I can't be good. Might be an engine in here that we can use. So this is Leroy's old engine which we took out. We didn't blow it up cuz we were smart.

so I guess we could just drag this out. Dude, get the Ford parts off there. Yeah, so they pull this bad girl back out. she thought she was going to rest for a little bit Now we did.

put the balancer off of this onto doesn't matter All Ru no I know I think we stole Ruby's balancer from something. the Blazer no no no yeah it is a I wasn't going to say anything Bal Where's her? uh intake. Oh here's her intake. Dang.

look at her dude. been there for a hot minute. we're back there she is. dude.

maybe we clean her. uh. injectors? Yeah, they probably need that. dude.

we're almost done. Yeah, couple more. Where's the tur ski at upstairs? Wait? is this a Brox block? Oh dude. so this will be the first time Ruby has a six bowl head.

Yeah, you know. 850s what? I know for sick week and then we'll turn it up. After that, it might be able to squeeze out of six with that Eng it We got this. Yeah, see, this is a problem guys.

we're going to escalate this. We back the same exact position. What size is this? 90? plenty of Turbo Ruby She's smiling right now. She is smiling D feels good the McQueen kachow suction cups and some gas.

we're ready. We're good. all right guys. Well it looks like all we got to do is put that in there that on top of that and literally hit the gas.

Hit the key 850 class. That's gonna be easy. We're not GNA push it like crazy. just bring her back softly.

baby steps a little. Let's check out these control arm mounts though when we get it on the lift cuz those do worry me. Also, maybe we can get those axles refreshed before we go racing. We have a we have two spares and these we just sent out before and back together for World Cup the last time.

so maybe we are dialed like every last time. we ran the car like it got all four new tires. it got new BR axles. yeah it hurt the motor kick the gaskets out.

we put gaskets in. yeah we were. we were like screw this. we're not doing this again.

Well we RI in part with the intentions of this going in it and again new re. that is more engine than she's ever had so maybe she'll just come back greater than ever. Right now we just we're just seeing the cusp of what it could be on sick week. All right guys.

Well Ruby returns You saw our updates on the cars. We got a lot going this week. We got to get to work though. We got a bunch to make happen before sick week gets here.

That's it for now. Thanks for watching. Do it for day a Wol Freaking see you later You.
