thanks for checking out the channel. I hope you enjoy all our shenanigans!

@@smokineaglesrodshop haha o ya 77 camaro any second gen content will be watched here, thanks brother

Sweet, glad you like the idea! Thanks for watching 👀

I ground the lock ring off a male air hose coupler and it has worked great for me. I'm glad you like the video. Did you see the duck bill adapter I made for mine?

Awesome! I have tons of 455 videos and more to come. you'll have to post some pics of your electra! have you watched any of our burnout competition videos yet?

I'll be editing it soon!

yep, your absolutely right

yep, the guy who did the brakes last put the pads on wrong and didn't put the car in service mode. expensive mistake, but it could have been a whole lot worse

a lot of people say to use walnut shell media so that doesn't happen

interesting, thanks for the info!

I would say with a sketch multiple it will easily be a x5 but if you can convince someone else to hold it you should good. It's ki da like a trust experiment. trust me your gonna get hurt..... maybe

there is a rubber grommet in the top

@@smokineaglesrodshop ah! Thank you! Yeah I don't think you can go wrong with 8 bucks. I guess not all plugs have the same threads then, & the Teflon is to protect the rubber on the device. Thanks for the info 🤠.

@@christianheidt5733 supposedly the Teflon tape is to protect the threads but I don't think is necessary honestly

@@smokineaglesrodshop i think it protects the rubber gasket in the device, otherwise you're always grabbing on sharp threads & eventually will tear it. My opinion only 🙂

@@christianheidt5733 that's a very good point and makes sense to me. I'll take it!

by the time hf gets their cut and the shipping and ocean freight I don't think there's much of the 8 bucks left for China 🤣

It's fine, I had my eyes closed anyway

Although it is a lot safer if you can convince someone else to hold it for ya

Yeah, the springs like to pop out and go flying.

@@myadhdSquirel ya I was worried for your fingers

I've done ok with it so far.tore down 2 sets of heads. for the 10 dollar investment I think I've got my money's worth. definitely not for daily use but for occasional use it's good enough for me!

I'll keep ya posted!

thanks! busy the next few weeks then I'll be fixing the front floors

gotta be able to slow down for the parade lap 🏁

it surprised me how easily it moves that big car and how hard it pulls

right! but their commercial said they have the best engineers? 😆😆

100% agree!

yard art 😆

@smokineaglesrodshop not anymore it's recently relocate to the crusher somewhere in Mexico LOL

well everything is made in south America now so it'll be back soon. just won't be near as cool 😎

here's the video! ruclips.net/video/4YlJBaq3ptQ/видео.htmlsi=-uq_tqiDGR7nfZG0

@@smokineaglesrodshop Holy crap cool!

🤣🤣 u got me!

great idea! 😆

Thanks John!

yep, I've had to fight my fair share of fittings too. This little trick will save the day next time they have to come out!

messy stuff but it sure does work!

Thanks! It's a lot of work keeping this old truck clean

yep I agree, only put it on the outside of the line to keep the line from seizing inside the fitting.

awesome ideas!

I wish 😆

welcome, glad you found us! Yeah the 71 pistons are the biggest thing holding the engine back on potential. with a running engine and known bottom end I wanted to see how much we could get out of it. Unfortunately I hurt the bottom end at burnout rivals in indy. I haven't had time to tear into it yet and see what the damage is but it may be time to get flat top pistons and take the engine up to the next level! Have you checked out the first videos I made getting the engine running? Thanks for the good info Jasper, I hope you enjoy the conent!

@@smokineaglesrodshop Sorry to hear about the bottom end issues, thats never fun. You will still want dished pistons (as the 1970's were) If you use flat tops you will be around 12.5 to 1 😬 I have a 1973 GS Stage 1, it was my 1st car, after I blew it up I rebuilt it with 1970 style Sealed Power forged pistons (I have no Idea If they are still available) Im checking out all of your Buick content 👍

@@jasperlit1345 breaking the bottom end was a real possibility. It stinks but it's not the end of the world. That's what I get for putting a new stage 1 top end on a 50 yr old bottom end. Just gives me an excuse to buy more go fast parts! I've got some big plans in the works for the 455

@@smokineaglesrodshop Awesome, I will definitely be watching haha

will it run?

thanks!
