On torque to yeild fastners, you can get a digital level that is zero able, klein has a great one for about $40. Just get tension on your ratchet, have the level on the handle in the same plane as the ratchet swing, zero the level and sendit 🤙🏽
All those tools and shop paraphernalia and no box cutter?
This project is on my all time short list of favorite jobs that came out of Powernation's garage. Outstanding.
You have a CNC plasma cutter for cutting holes but don't have a box cutter to cut the cardboard, and don't even get me started on how shit the welding was, you should be ashamed.
Retire the announcer!!!!!!

If its an 03 04 dohc 4.6 out of the cobra you call it the terminator. Nothing else

I wanna do this to a new ranger.. so bad..

Can't get too crazy with a TKO six
But that's on you man
Which is best transmission CVT or torque converter or dsg???
Good thing these guys don't have to make a living off their welding prowess.
All the nice equipment in their shop and he's still using an air impact lol.
Yeah I was cringing while he wasn't using a utility knife
Being able to getup and do something fun and get paid instead of someone telling u what do all day. Im leaving Quality Engineering to start my own venture.
Damn that band saw guide was set HIGH
Plasma table, and no safety glasses…
Razor blade, bare handed, cutting the templates? Someone will get hurt…
Good luck bringing that to an average mechanic. heh.
How many people buy the DVD's?
Shouting for 19mins is very fatiging. Not to mention the smashing and crashing soundtrack. Relax.
Handling, weight shaving, and handcrafted parts. This is very European.
Shoulda made the speed holes triangles..
Stopping the video while a commercial was on! You guys just made a huge mistake. A large unforgivable one. Cutting weight on a flywheel greatly reduces torque… find out from the speed shops the reason for torque is mass weight and what it takes to stop it. A lighter wheel … flywheel, is easier to stop or less torque. I hope that you read this and catch your mistake in time as you will lose significant power. Torque power!
Kinda sad you couldn't use the headers. Log manifolds = yucky sound
Please, I beg you, please, it's my biggest biggest dream. I really want to learn how to handle it. American mechanics, just like you learned from somebody someday, it is not possible to do a great charity, a good deed and teach me how to work with heavy mechanics too. I don't charge anything until I work for free for you. I do everything a little bit, just a lot of hardworking and very polite obidiencite I do everything you guys tell me to do on the spot, I do it on the run, it still won't be able to teach me how to work with heavy mechanics. Disel, please, I'm just a big fan of all of you. I love it when I was a kid and here in my country I never had the opportunity and the truth is also not like American mechanics, I tried to be a mechanic when I was only 10, from 10 to 12 years old, I worked in the heavy mechanics of an acquaintance of mine dad, just like i said i quit because it has nothing to do with mechanics i really want to learn for my life q is nothing more than american mechanics, right, please, i really help me to share his knowledge with me I, I beg you in the same way that someone TEACHED you everything you know today and you take it further, teach me also to be able to take it further, because my biggest dream is to be able to assemble a pickup truck in the American mechanical style, right ❤
Lovin Trucks!
They definitely should have painted that frame
Love to see this drivetrain in a 1966 to 1970 Ranchero.
