Most of these RTM power nation videos were made and paid for a decade ago. And, since so many people have walked away from TV, we're witnessing the big corporations infecting alternative platforms to bolster their control matrix. Their viewer numbers seem to indicate more rejection on this platform as well..
I agree. Screwed over waiting to see if they had to hack the strut towers or move the master cylinder ect. Its just an ad for Matco. My fault for not bailing 15 mins into it. About to bail on PN completely.
All this horsepower horse shit t.v show ever was,from now to back in the day when it was once a week on Sunday afternoon,1 giant commercial for jegs or holly or Matco or whoever gave enough cash.
Yeah Orgasmo gold said, if you go above and beyond on your sales you can get a Huracan Lambo or the v12 Mercedes blah blah ......blah. and if you refer people in and they sell they can get a lambo,lol
I just got back last night from a 1100 mile trip to go pick up a ‘93 GT mustang with a 347stroker and a built tremac five speed. I bought it for $500 BUT it was parked next to a shop when it burnt down. The car is trash but the engine compartment is still good, hoses aren’t even melted. I’ve got an ‘84 t-top hatch that it’s all going in next.
That 2.3 is a fertile field for power adders. You can turbo the heck out of those and get crazy good numbers for such a modest mill. How about a build video on that old thing, installing some new power under the hood of another Ranger?
The main project was cut off at 5 minutes. Half the episode was dedicated to something else and I didn't watch. They came back near the end, but this is why I rarely click on powernation suggestions.
why dont you just make a matco tool episode and talk about their tools and stuff, people will watch anything on youtube no need to shoehorn it in an episode about a foxbody
Isn’t the 2.3 liter an engine thats sought after in the aftermarket scene? I know a similar build show such as this built a 2.3 Lima engine for dirt track racing
I love the show and all the work yall do!! I like the coyote engines but they are too girthy. Kinda ruins the weight balance in a fox. I love my sbf tucked up into the firewall! My dream setup for corner carving is an aluminum 363 big bore with a transaxle! sla up front and irs out back!
An aluminator weights about 425 and a 302 w weighs about 450. Obviously aluminum heads intake and forged jnternals change the weight and may give tbe windsor a small advantage. But considering a bolt on coyote makes about as much as a windsor maxes out at id say the 30 pounds it may gain dont mean much
@@slowbra94 To me its the size, girth. They sit pretty far forward adding a larger percentage of weight on the front tires. I believe an aluminum block 302 base big bore would offer more potential/better weight distribution in a fox for road racing. In drag racing/drifting the coyote would offer more potential because it's a baddass engine with gobs of power potential.
@@ridemotoeveryday @RidemotoEveryday fair point. Im looking at it from primarily a drag racing perspective of weight and power. I could see something like a strong turbo 4 or I6 performing better because of the weight distribution. But im pretty sure a few companies have come up with ways to move the engine back in this particular swap. Or you could always just use a motor plate instead of mounts and but it almost completely against the firewall
@@slowbra94 Thst motor kills it in drag racing! I have my 302 against the firewall, aftermarket kmember. The Coyote just takes up alot of real-estate, I definitely love the coyote and it's capability. But love my old pushrod v8's more. If I had the money I'd piss everyone off and buy a new mustang and put a sbf in it.😁 I do my own work too so I have lots of ideas.
@@ridemotoeveryday i agree pushrods are just different. I daily and drag a 94 cobra and my best friend just finished his 347 carbed 88 fox. The real dream now is to put the 7.3 godzilla into these cars 🤣 pushrod and capability combined
Do you guys work on these in Cookeville ? Ive been watching you guys since spike tv and beyond. I seen you guys at rhino liner in Cookeville one time. Just wondering.
Yep, we used to have dealers here but they either went bust of left. I traded all my stuff for snap on and Mac tools. the tools are useless if you can't get service and warranted. and yes Matco's hardline tools like ratchets and screwdrivers they dont even make in house, no Thanks. I call my Snap on and Mac dealers and i can get stuff overnighted if need be, i don't have to go looking for stuff it's a text or a phone call away. They get my money.
400 to 450 horse is the perfect range for a car you are going to run and have some fun in. Get into over 500 and they aren't as fun on the roads. All my build are in that 400 to 450 range from my small blocks to my big blocks. Am I the only on that feels this way? To much power on the street isn't enjoying.
I have a 630 HP BBF in a 1973 Ford F-100, and it has all the amenities. A/C, PS, PB, AT, etc. I put about 40K on it over the last 3 years, and it's a dream to drive, even in traffic.
Just looked into becoming a MATCO tool franchise... more of a scam than an opportunity. More fees upfront than you can shake a stick at. And you're penalized if you make sales "outside of your call list" regardless of who initiated the sale... Matco makes their money... but penalized their salespeople... Won't be buying any more matco tools...

Just so Power Nation knows, I'm here to watch the video title ..not MATCO infomercials.

Seriously. This was a show about the tools with a commercial about an engine removal from an old mustang.

Coyotes need to rev to at least 7k, 75-8 ideally, that's where they shine the most
"Removed the engine with 3 simple things, a lift..." yeah, because everyone has a lift in their garage and can do it this way.
You wouldn't believe how many lifts I delivered to homes when I drove a truck. The 16' ones barely fit on the truck's rail lift...
"Fun times."
It would be cool if someone swapped out the original 2.3L 4 cylinder for a modern 2.3L Ecoboost and upgrade the suspension, body and brakes as well

Y’all should do a full 99-04 new edge mustang build😍😍
Too much MATCO commercial and not enough focus on the car. @Powernation, we get that the bills need to be paid, but come on...it's ridiculous.
"The Amish is strong with this one" - Darth Vader.

My dad and I put a 472 BBF in one of these and drag race it.
I had a 520 BBF in a 1989. Ripped the trailing arm mounts out of the frame for the rear differential. That thing was sick fast.
That 2.3 is a fertile field for power adders. You can turbo the heck out of those and get crazy good numbers for such a modest mill. How about a build video on that old thing, installing some new power under the hood of another Ranger?
LOL @ 8 minute Matco commercial. No wonder TV is dead.
Remember that dirt track Lima 2.3L y'all did a while back? That would be a fun project for the engine that you pulled out.
I need that 4cyl in my car. Mine is siezed. Since I can't afford to upgrade my fox body
Good to see a Coyote instead of a LS going into a FoxBody
Broooooo I literally live in San Antonio, how’d I’d not hear about this.
Love to put that Coyote Aluminator into a 67 Mustang fastback
Longest Matco commercial. Ever.
Oh yeah... forgot why I was here.
Cant wait for that 4 cylinder to be built.
8 minutes of MATCO Tools was painful...
Yesss Mustangs Fords power not boring LS
Does matco sell tools though?🤔
Best shop and rebuild show on RUclips or anywhere!
Agreed, hate the infomercial, guess it pays the bills.

Way to go Pam and Jeff.
46K subs needed after that 1M subs congratulations in advance 😃😃
Part 87: It drives, but don’t look too closely!
I'da kept the 2.3 and boosted it.
Shaggy where you left Scooby-Doo 😁
2:11 it's just locktight alittle heat and those bolts are out
I hate it when they put so many ads in there videos it bad enough youtube itself has so many ads
I run my factory 2011 5.0L to 7500 rpm, and once I went to 8000 rpm after messing with my SCT. Now I only go to 7000.
The chain is a pretty good safety tip
Can take a junkyard LS and throw a cam and valve springs at it and it will put down more than that lol!
Nice engine set-up but expensive
Everything PN does is expensive......
This work is great. I like too much!
I just got a 79 mustang that has the v6 , id give my right arm for a motor like that to put in it
why dont you just make a matco tool episode and talk about their tools and stuff, people will watch anything on youtube no need to shoehorn it in an episode about a foxbody
But will the VCT's stay on the Coyote this time? Guess we'll have to wait and find out.
Just to be clear -. That was the Aluminator SC.
How is that motor have 6 bolt mains? I paused the video and zoomed in at 14:55 and I only count 4?
Matco tools, never heard of them, all we have in Guam is husky from home depot. Matco needs to come to guam.
@Wayne Flanigan Nope no harbor freight here either
Nothing says a professional works here like a set of snap on FB tools😁
Stout nice. Thanks 😀!!
Hey guys got me emotional , when is the part 2?
Should of just went with a gen 2 coyote. Stock internals can hold up to 900 whp.
When are you guys going to do an OBS dually build
Wonder how much power it made above 6500?
You guys need to rev it to 7500
I figured you were going to remove everything at once just like you did 👍👍
Isn’t the 2.3 liter an engine thats sought after in the aftermarket scene? I know a similar build show such as this built a 2.3 Lima engine for dirt track racing

i saw the foxbody notch back mustang, i click on it
You can find Matco hand tools for half price or less at Harbor Freight.
the rust isn't that bad..
Cool... Do car stuff...
Should have kept the 4 banger, I know a guy with a fox body with a single turbo 4 cylinder and it beats almost every v8 out on the track
My eclipse gtx was a turbo 4 cylinder and I could smoke Corvettes no problem. Awd plus turbo. Yeah I'll take that anyday.
Wouldn't building a lighter turbocharged 4 cylinder be better for time attack or is the weight distribution better when a v8 is under the hood?
Yes. It would be much faster on a track.
Can I get the air intake to the 4 cylinder
