@@philp4842 thanks for the support! I really like the idea of using the pan bolts and maybe tucking it up in that area. I agree through the interior will probably make it too hot but I wasn't sure if that's an approach they use in other applications. Thanks again!

Thanks for the support!

Thanks brother! I appreciate the support. We got a video coming out very soon where we're adding a boost controller and GFB Bov hopefully

How can you tell just by looking? Genuinely curious to educate myself

I'm sorry I missed this, here's the kit I'm using amzn.to/4edycBi

@@jeffreystelling3395 so far so good! We're excited to check out the Mizzou homecoming game in a few weeks!

@@RatchetMotors glad to hear. That should be a great time 😃

@@jeffreystelling3395 thanks for the welcome!

@@RatchetMotors hope you enjoy the show me state. I'm also a Ford guy,so I'm loving the F-100

I'm very excited to get the F-100 out on the streets of MO. If you haven't seen our videos, it is currently in progress with a 460 big block and C6, 8.8 rear and Crown Vic IFS. Trying to keep it Ford in a Ford!

@@RatchetMotors newly subscribed,so I look forward to seeing more vids on the f-100 once you guys get set up and settled in 🙂

You are literally the only person to ever say that lol and yes still the stock VW 4 speed for several years now

We are on the "Southside" from my understanding but still learning the area. And I'm super excited to go watch a football game! Originally from MA, football and tailgating was another level in NC and I'm sure it'll be even more wild at MIZZOU. Thanks for the kind words!

@@IRL_Quests believe it or not, I am still using the stock type 1 transmission for years of abuse. I have a KEP adapter kit and so far so good. No hard launches or significant burnouts and the transmission has been doing well! Best of luck!

@@RatchetMotors wow that’s super surprising everyone on the samba says you can’t do it. They talk about the 3rib bus trans a lot.

@@IRL_Quests yes I've had this setup for at least 3 years. I do not abuse the transmission but I've definitely gotten on the gas pretty good and no problems so far 🤞 if I was going to upgrade, I'd probably go the path of the Subaru transmission for more clutch options. I'm not sure if the reverse pinion kit is still being made though

@@HarrisonSchindell-bg6lo good luck!

@@davidkimberley4730 thanks for the feedback! That is not something I've thought to check...

@@yellowperilbiker I really appreciate the feedback but I'm a little lost by the beginning of the comment. What are you referring to with the coils and PVL not Gill? Genuinely interested as I'm trying to get this bike right! Thank you!

Seems like a great deal, especially if you can reuse things like the engine wiring and computer!

I am right in the middle of moving (with the bug) from NC to Columbia, MO. You can always DM me on IG or send an email at ratchetmotorsnc@gmail.com

@@BrambleRun I still have it! I'm in the middle of a move from NC to MO but you can email me at ratchetmotorsnc@gmail.com or DM on IG if you want to figure something out!

Agreed! I need to get the carb cleaned, I think the jets might be gummed up. Probably worth checking the ignition system as well.

Thanks for the support! I actually sold the car but did not have any issues prior with the mufflers. Best of luck!

Thanks for the advice! No drain plug on the unit, it is not meant to be drained.

Thanks for the support! And yes still the stock T1 for now.

Best of luck!

Sadly, I think this all came down to a bad engine ground. I'm fairly certain the coil pack has no issues other than a lack of earf.

I am by no means an expert but I do feel like load is a factor. My failed sprag also seemed "normal" during removal and inspection but sounded like ball bearings in my crankcase during startup before changing

Thanks for the support!

Thank you! I appreciate it!

Lol I just bought a basket case for sure! 😂

Thanks for the support!

I just rebuilt the slave cylinder a couple months ago as I thought that was the original problem. I'm hoping it hasn't already failed again but I'm running out of options.

@@RatchetMotors believe me I know how you feel. no shop around me will even work on mine so i can even take it in to anyone. havent taken the clutch cover off but i think that may be my next mot to try and figure it out. lesson i learned from this is never buy another triumph

I appreciate that! I spent a lot of time trying to keep the changes as subtle as possible. SOHC heads definitely make fitment much easier than DOHC.

@@RatchetMotors my dad was a bug guy back in the day, in Puerto Rico. The first thing I learned was to look at the lid. 😬

I agree and I also definitely came close to flooding the engine with all the cranking. Any ideas on the clutch?

@@RatchetMotors i will watch the video all the way through and see what problems you have and get back to you. I'm a bike tech from the UK so we should be able to sort it .

@@RatchetMotors first thing , you must soak the friction plates in oil for 24 hrs don't put them in dry or you will destroy them very fast . try that first .

make you its motorcycle oil with jaso ma /ma2 spec

Unfortunately, I seem to be suffering from a sticking clutch. I was able to get the bike to run somewhat reliably but still cannot get the clutch to disengage for the life of me. I'm diving in now and will likely rebuild the clutch. Video should be coming out very soon! Thanks for the advice!

⁠@@RatchetMotorshey so I’m working with a client right now and I need some help. He’s having some trouble because oil is being pumped into the air box. There is a fitting with a tube on the left side of the bike it’s like right under the horn on your bike. It has a rubber tube connected to it. I believe it’s the oil pump. Do you know where that tube is suppose to go to or can you check on your bike and get back to me. I’m not sure if it runs somewhere back into the engine or if it’s blocked off with a fitting please save me the headache and get back to me

@@RatchetMotors it’s the tube that’s right above the water pump and right below the horn, the fitting that is apart of the left side of the chrom casing. Just want to know where that tube/hose goes to because oil is spilling everywhere. Can you tell me where it’s suppose to route to or is it plugged off

Fit PVL coils and ignition sensor. Gill are more likely to fail...

Just the 4 bolts! It might seem questionable but I've had no problems in several years now. I will install a kafer brace or additional supports at some point but so far so good. Best of luck!

Best of luck and thanks!

No real reason other than it was cheap and simple. More of a proof of concept to make sure everything worked. I will probably make the stock fuel tank work eventually
