The Ultimate Engine Choice for a Bronco?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 25 июл 2024
- The iconic early Bronco has been fitting with every type of high h.p. V8 but is it really the best option for a Bronco? We went a different direction with a R2.8 Turbo Diesel for torque, drivability and millage.

Enjoy and...relax I'll be back on the Corvair in a couple of months. Taking care of a paying client at the moment.
But what about the Corv.... Oh. Good!
and oh will you make him pay. :) I can already hear the flood of love coming for cutting up a stock Bronco. I don't care whether or not the fenders were cut, or that it maintains its 'patina' (which is a new way of saying 'lazy') Once those Ford owners get their cars started, they'll be on their way to your house (which means you're safe for now)
@@stoneshrinki like the looks of lazy😂
Can someone please explain why vw beetle engines make such low hp for their size? ...Like a 1203cc Buell air cooled engine based on old Harley Davidson engine tech with pushrods, 2 valves per cyl, low max rpm can put out 100hp with a few mods & around 90hp stock. Yet it seems like many 1600cc & up vw engines. Even the 1915cc seem to struggle to make 100hp even with lot's of upgrades.
@@michaelbrinks8089 VWs in their relatively stock form, breath poorly which means low h.p.
IMO, you're a better comedian than most comedians are fabricators.
Ha!
Thanks for the love on our chassis!
It's been a fun project, thanks for all your help!
Great video! Always love to see your work. There aren't many craftsmann around anymore
Amazing fab work. Always enjoy sitting in on your projects
😅 love the humor, too!
John... you are the master of keeping us on the edge of our seats! Hope I didn't miss your last Corvair-ette video!
John, you are a true craftsman with a great sense of humor. Thanks for sharing, your videos make my day.
I love your work and I appreciate your humor. My friend built a Bronco for son. It was about the same year. He even made a new tailgate because the original one was all rusted out. He did a very nice job. It came with a 6 cylinder but he put in a 289 V-8.
9:00 Ha!
And brilliant on the Binky boys bracket reference. 🤣
Like that you used the cummins ! 👍😊
Damn, I wish my welder sounded like a light saber. I can't even get the "frying bacon' sound consistently. The little Cummins in the Bronco is the best of everything.
I love the sound effects of the welder sounds like Star Wars
I was about to recommend this engine before the reveal. I knew the R2.8 would be the best choice. 👍🏼
Great editing! (on top of great mechanical work!)
(SPOLER ALERT: Lasers were hurt in the making of this video)
Thanks John! 👍💪✌
The narration as the front bumper came crashing down was the funniest thing I've seen/heard for ages. I love this channel!!!
Cool John’s got a RUclips channel! I’ve been a fan since the early KOH
Awesome build. Thanks for taking us along for the ride. 💪👍🏼
Nice project, sir !
Always a pleasure to watch your videos.
Another great video. Love your sense of humor. Carry on.
Great video!
I love your attention to detail. Impressive all the way around!!
Neat new project.
Great video...really enjoyed the subject.
Your welder makes the coolest sounds, wish mine did that! :)
That bronco is Guaranteed to blow your mind!
I see what you did there.
Great video thanks
This is my first time seeing your channel but that “just ask my mom, or any of my exes” line convinced me to stay. Well done, young man
Thats awesome. I worked on that 2.8 project at cummins. It's a decent little platform.
I don't remember telling you it was okay to start another project before finishing the Corvair. Great work.
I really enjoyed this video, your commentary is easy to absorb. Your craftsmanship is up there on the top shelf John. Anxious to get back into the Cover project.
KC
Brilliant! A proper Bronco enhancement old chap. Well done, cheers mate. Full disclosure I am near to Boston not across the pond. 😊
This is gonna be awesome. I was almost expecting to hear a “Watch Wes Work” classic “Got IT” at @2:27….. but this is John’s show with his own detailed humor ‘sprinkled’ in every scene. 👍👍😎👍👍
Ha, thanks, I try not to make it too dull.
Nice project, and lots of humor, as always. The Best! I loved project Binky, until … you know…. just too much waiting
I throughly enjoyed all of this.
Big thumbs up on this one as with the rest of your vids!
Iconic-ly impressive...
You are a man with skills!
John I love your personality in all of the videos, but today I kept hearing Casey Kasem, I kept expecting to hear, " and here's this weeks longdistance dedication."
Hope you had a good holiday. Looking forward to updates on the Corvair... soon?
Nice video I love the music great
How’s the progress on the Corvair?🇸🇪
Same as Binky....
This man is a master craftsman.iam amazed at his skills. I belive he could build a flying sauser.
Nice project
Killer Queen... it shant be
(stellar fab as usual)
Great video. I had never heard of Kincer Chassis before. Found out they are only a couple of hours from me. Looks like they do some real nice work. Looking forward to the project!
They do and they have all different levels. This one happens to be their flag ship.
We'd love to have you come by the shop!
@@kincerchassis I will let you know if I come over that way!
Kick Ass JR!
Awesome! Oh ya….nice brackets
3.2 5 pots turbodiesel from the international model of Ranger.
Love it!!! The video, that is, the Bronco is nice too.
Thanks, I try to make entertaining or at least, watchable videos.
You sure do I dont even have a drivers licens but im looking forward to every episode from your hand @@JohnReynolds661
Ha ha ha! Love it! Can’t wait for the next episode!
Impressive as always! I'm sure there's a logical reason by why did you have the bedliner applied before determining the final engine bay clearance requirements?
Holy crap!
Sound effects!!!
I'm sure the Cummins will out perform the original set up in most every way but my knee jerk reaction is to stay with the 289. That chassis is a beaut. Can't wait for the finished product test drive.
Am I the only one that remembers him being on top truck challenge in that blue bronco 😂
😮FC From Thailand
Good stuff….. but missing the Corv-8T
Would love to connect with you about a potential project.
you brought that? hell you could have built it. in 2 years, when is track day for the corvair
You won’t be that busy, the wiring is Painless.
👍💪
Is there a reason you went with the Kincer over the rs4 from Roadstershop?
No reason really. It's what the customer supplied.
Hi i still need answers on youre sleeper bug about the gearbox no info yet
The reverse R&P comes from subarugears, look them up for more info. I also use PPG dog gears because of the power.
Looks like that line x will keep the rust off but also add some strength.....If I had the money for a new vehicle. I'd much rather have a restomod like this than a new 2023-24 Bronco
Always liked that version of the Bronco but I wouldn't have a Diesel, especially living in London with mayor Napoleon targeting car owners.
And you will get it finished before project binky.
Where's the 'vair?
Is that a full size Bronco or a Bronco 2?
Neither. It's usually just referred to as an "early Bronco" which is 1966 - 1977
Hate to see an original Bronco all cut up
Actually, very little will be cut. BTW, they made EBs for 11 years. Hundreds of thousands of them, they're not really that rare.
build a vans aircraft kit
I will never, ever, not even in a billion years, use another non-lubeable heim joint on a suspension link ever again. Not even once. Here in the future, we use johnny joints. They are no relation to Clarence and have these cute things call 'zerts' that allow one to lube the joint - thus preventing sloppy seconds... I mean, sloppy suspensions.
You had me until the engine… Gas mileage on a early Bronco should be the last thing on your mind! I owed a 78, 84, 94 and 95. I think 10mpg was the best I got. 300hp minimum from a V8 should be in it.
Not really into the Bronco. But a V-8 corvair…..
Hydraboost brakes 🤮
What is with you youtube guys? Listening to you talk at a good level and THEN THE MUSIC BLASTS OUT AT INSANE LEVELS. Can you not TURN DOWN THE MUSIC to a level that is the same as the person talking?
OK, I'LL DO MY BEST!
