amazingness in a can. I do not own any rights to this song! Thank you Devil Wears Prada!
That tool is a great idea. You could also add a delrin or ptfe insert to make it non-marring when installing and sliding off to remove.
It is an amazing and wonderful thing. Old cars had little reliance on machines, but they gave us the most powerful engines ❤
Thanks COOP the WiSeNhEiMeR from Richmond, INDIANA ...
somewhere, sometime....in that factory....one of you built the 401 that is in my daughter's 71AMX. I thank you! In case you were wondering.....it still smokes the baloneys!
Great tool! Any idea where i can purchase such a tool? Are you selling them?
true mechanic
For those who know, the legend lives on.
Good company
Are you still making these tools? Im interested and sent an email. Or where is the amc forums?
Hopefully they got a copy of this video all these people
Neat video, not a pair of safety glasses in the building
The footage looked like the the 70's .1974 looks to be the year based on Manuel Lozano's comment.
Not one robot, no wonder AMC didn't survive.😮
At 3:34 there’s a guy wearing a shirt that says “AMC 1818”. Does anyone know what “1818” meant?
I didn't know AMC made any engines, I thought they purchase from other OEMs like Ford
DID THEY MAKE ENGINES FOR INTERNATIONAL HARVESTER TURCKS?
Great editing work, killer tune, this rocks!
This is a MUST!!! Worked excellently! Thanks bud.
My dad worked their and was just able to get his 30yrs. in. He always had the hard jobs because he was a hard worker! One job he didn't like was the alliance windshields all leaked. He had to remove and reseal them. Anyway most all the people in that era are gone now R.I.P.
This plant can be brought back up to code in less than a year!!!!!! Re tooled re stocked and ready to go.
We can bring back Matador can be our Taurus. javelin our mustang. Pacer our Honda Civic Vision our 4 door highway cruiser luxobarge. And we can make a matador X as our SUV crossover. Or just a new 🦅
We’re gonna try to bring the factory back. We’re sure that stelantis has to many brands and asking for AMC or Eagle shouldn’t be a problem. Especially when we buy power steering pumps and transmissions from Chrysler. We can purchase so much from ford and Chrysler all. We can build analogue cars with no microchips. Or a very small amount of microchips 90’s style.
Make it happen. My 84' Eagle needs some new American made parts and not that chineseium bs!
Who is "we"?
So for Quality Appreciation Day you appeared for 3 seconds in a internal corporate film employees would see perhaps once. Way to make people feel appreciated.
I sent you an email i want to buy one thanks
Good UNION JOBS GONE. SAD.
Straightening a crankshaft with a big hammer. Thats what Im talking about. Those engines are tough though and I own a few still
Good old days when you could chooch some cigs on the line and wash it down with Irish coffee, have a sixer for lunch.
Love the cigarettes slopping out of the mouthes of many of the engine builders 😂😂
I think I probably should get one of these
AMC built great engines. The cars had more ergonomic interiors than most but the exterior rusted prematurely.
I'm surprised to hear that, they were known to be made of galvanized steel with a no rust-through warranty
@@Acejustforalaugh Yes they did. I bought a '67 Camaro in 1972 and the frame was so badly rusted out the rear shocks punched up through the trunk. And a '71 Buick Riviera I bought in '75 that had duct tape hiding the rust holes in the rocker panels. Has it gotten any better? Yes. 50 years have passed and my 2000 Buick Century daily driver only has a little rust on the underside. Oops, I forgot about the 90's Ford Windstar that rusted out on the showroom floor.
@@atarigames that didnt happen until 1979 galvanized metal
Just got my tool, looks great and works better. Don't do the job without it.
It's good to know how to test a tach on a 70 Javelin and AMX but whether using the tach or testing a tach the pink and yellow will always stay disconnect and wired coil the same way as you tested it, correct?
I work in an engine building factory, and it's cool to see what's changed over the years as far as the process on the assembly line and what has stayed the same

Can you tell me what camshaft you are running in specifications on it? Sounds really awesome I am putting in my 70. 390.
pulled out my broken dip stick tube out of 1969 AMC AMC 390 BLOCK. I had no choice but remove my headers but that was no big deal. I took broken tube to ACE hardware to by a high quality lag bolt. I bought 3 lenghts, shot to long. I ended using the small one. I screwed it in about 1/2 inch. Took your pry bar and cut the nail removal slot to fit bolt. I hooked the bolt and tapped it from the bottom. CAME RIGHT OUT! Installing new shaft was easy. Turn pry tool upside down, insert tool at the hump in tube, take a very long pry tool and tap the pry tool with a hammer till it seats. Hint, put small amount of lubricant on the part inserting. BINGO. I was really scared to take this on, but it worked out GREAT. Thank you for you video it really helped. I hope you had luck incert new dip stick tube, you didn't say. Great video. That tool is great if your engine is out of the car. You tube is awesome for mechanics. Thanks
THIS is what made USA Great!!!!!
My tube broke in 2 at the weld; got the lower part out; now cant re-install it by itself; does it angle to the right or left ? Is that even do-able ?

purchased a 1969 hurst amx that was changed into a 1970 amx.it was not allowed on the race track until i switched it back to a 1969 amx.locating a hood scoop was a big problem so i had one made.the car looked great as a 1970 but nhra said it was illegal.
Cheddar heads in action!
I'm in this video @ 2:40 waving my Bible. Over 40 years ago and I'm still going strong in The Lord at Word of Faith Family Church in Mount Pleasant, WI
You looked happy at your work
God bless you, we want to bring the factories back. We don’t need the Brampton plant Detroit and Kenosha AMC or Eagle.
That’s the car What do they call the hood for an option my best friend had the exact color combo tan interior what fun car 13.40. It had 360 edlebrock aluminum intake headers that’s it maybe a Holley carb. 20 mpg just a blast to drive if you know the correct hood designation could you let me know 99 % seemed to be all painted that’s the car . When bought this car he had no idea It would whoop assso bad . My 427 Chevelle tied him but I thought I was gonna mop the floor with him love that car AMX
I love the expression on the line workers when they realize they're being filmed, some of the expressions are like "oh awesome, we're being filmed for a documentary", and the others are like "what the hell are you looking at asshole" LOL
Looks like these folks actually enjoyed there job making some fine bullet proof engines that actually many are still running the roads still today. A better time in America sadly this plant is now gone,
How much is the tool?
I have one of these tools and it works great!! Great video by the way!
When i was young, i visited the factory for a stage at the Renault division this is was magical
Thanks for the information !
My best friend John Hoyland had the exact color and the black hood. He had a offenhauser intake headers Holley dual point 13.60s and 20 mpg.I love that car. So light agile..
I’m in love.
