Yes sir. I’ve seen it many times where people thought they were replacing LA engines with what they thought were “big block “318s. The poly engine pretty much bolts right in to replace the LA.
Removed with surgical precision! Nicely done Mike! And a big shout out to Chris!! What a great guy and friend. Now let's get to 1,000 subscribers! RAWK!!
Dirt? Did you mean dart I have three darts… None of them have a dodge Dakota steering wheel on them The Challenger temporally had a B body column it it just so I could move it around the property. That may be the one you’re talking about. That is not a Dakota steering wheel either
@@rodney1818 lol. No worries. The 73 dart and the 74 dart are both original steering wheels. 68 dart has an aftermarket chrome something or another on it that I picked up 10,000 years ago. Lol
You make removing an engine easy! Just wondered, but you can just drop the k frame with it all connected or do you have to drop the whole front suspension as well? What engine are going with when it’s done?
You can drop the key frame but you have to take all of the suspension. You can leave the upper control arms in the car if you want. Pretty tough to do it if you don’t have a hoist though I have a 440 on the stand for it and I’m trying to find the other bits I need for the motor. But I may throw a small block in it initially as I have a complete small block drivetrain squirreled away in the back room just in case of an emergency. 😂
Leak ALL the transmission fluid hahahaha I died when you said that. Great episode Mike! You made pulling that motor look easy and yall used much less violence then me haha.
Might’ve used a little more finesse if we weren’t both so darn tired but we literally pulled this immediately after building the rotisserie mounts. However, your video on pulling the motor was much more enjoyable. Lol
Hey Mike, unless they are extremely cheap, or stainless, metric bolts have a grade in numbers. Like 8.8 or 10.9 etc. And standard have the hash marks. Just a little tip.
Yup. Most do. These bolts are out of an early 80s gm that I stripped and some were not marked. They got mixed in my std bolt bin years ago and once in a while one comes back to bite me. 😂😂😎
WOW! what an accomplishment...Great job by both of you! YES and a GREAT BIG shout out to Chris! wish I would've been there to help...maybe next time! Great episode!
Good job guys..one more peice of the puzzle complete.
Thanks.
Fun stuff! 🤘
Thanks Ruben. 😎
keep up the work!!! hopefully soon u will be priming the car and building an engine
That seems light years away. 😂😂
One more step done. Good job.
Very happy to have that one behind me
Progress!!
Yes. Felt like a big step
Mike, is that a poly motor?

Definitely a good job done.
Is that a Dodge Dakota wheel on that dart

@@MyKARSShop no the left rear drive wheel on the Forsyth Dart
@@MyKARSShop yes dart every time I assume autocorrect is correct it's incorrect my bad

@@rodney1818 ohhhh. Lol. Forsyth Duster. Gotcha. Lol. I think it might be off of a minivan I’m not sure.

Was definitely a big step

90’s Daytona or Charger
@@MyKARSShop okay that probably is what I seen it on that turbo Daytona man those things were fast for what they were and when they were

Thanks for that tip
Though. That’s good Info.
Man that motor looks crusty! Nice torqueflite tho! Strong transmission there.
I’m not sure a motor could be any more stuck than that one. Lol. 😂😂
Yes definitely a good core for building one when I need it
WOW! what an accomplishment...Great job by both of you! YES and a GREAT BIG shout out to Chris! wish I would've been there to help...maybe next time! Great episode!
It was definitely something I was looking forward to having done.
It’ll be Brad time soon
