  • It dawned on me that I never showed you guys in detail what's under the hood. With school last year the cleanliness of my engine bay has went down hill. Figured I would suck it up and start the process of getting the engine bay back to looking good as best as I can. This hopefully will answer the questions some of yall had about odds and ends under the hood.

      This video is kinda your fault 😂. After talking to you I realized I didn’t do a tour of what under the hood. So I figured I would do a quick version while cleaning it. 2 birds with one stone. I put the catch can link in the description of the video.

      @@bikelyfer.p Definitely going to look into the polish. And as far as the valve covers go, the Amazon Link I originally got mine from says they aren’t available at the moment. But I have the eBay link for the same ones. Only difference is mine has 1 hole in one cover and 2 in the other cover. This link only has the 1 hole per cover set. Which you can still use but you will have to fill oil on the opposite side. Because your pcv valve will take up the hole on the driver side.

    Dude I love this channel!! I check weekly to see if you drop a new video, reminds me of going to Sam Goody/FYE to see if a new CD has come out in the early 2000s lol.
    You happen to have the part number for the pcm bracket? Just did the 411 swap, doesn’t move much, but it would be nice to have a bracket that can hold it down in place.

    • @RCSmith90
      @RCSmith90  5 месяцев назад +1

      Appreciate the support man! I know EXACTLY what you mean 😂. The next generation doesn’t know the struggle of waiting for CD to come out. The factory brackets that comes on the OBS truck with Vortecs actually works. You just have to flip the PCM upside down and it drops in. So you could grab one out of the junk yard.
      OOOOORRR you could get the one that ICT billet sells. Which I more or may not use once I delete my ABS. This is the ICT billet one that you can mount on the inner fender.

    @RCSAutoworld- How many amps do each of your Brand x alternators put out? Do you know what the amp output is @ idle for each alternator? How many watts, is your Bass amp rated to do? What size, and how many subwoofers are in your truck? What Db can it do, and @ what freq.? I really love car audio, ive been going to car audio shows for 30+ years. Can't wait for your dyno run, to see what rpm your tq., and Hp, peak @. That data will help determine your optimal shift points, and what stall speed tq. Converter to get for quickest E.T.'s! Great video, my friend. P.s. Im a Big guy with sausages= size 18 ring finger, so i know what you mean about trying to get into small spaces!

Starting from the interior being stripped to the sheet metal and sound deadened, to what it is now. I’ll put all of the info you were talking about in it. Not sure of the DB it will hit. It’s 2, 12s on a 7k Vital power amp. Alts are 250 amp each and do 200 at idle. Appreciate the support 🙏🏾
