depending on the firing order of the the engine you should have 1st and third on one side and 2nd and 4th on other , yes it makes the piping harder but it will make it run a lot better as it gives better cylinder scavenging (pulling inlet charge in using the exhaust pulse ) 1342 1&4 - 2&3
Exactly what I said, he's not preformance minded, and barely mechanically inclined.
He's highly intelligent, and has great ideas, but he's actually afraid of going anywhere near the capability of his creations.
Even though he's got over 650,000 subscribers, and should be making some serious pocket money, he unfortunately tends to take the cheapest options just because it's his nature I'm afraid.
He doesn't market himself nearly as well as many with far less subs than he's got, and that probably hurts his potential income from RUclips, and merchandising sales which he has little if any of that.
Lotta things he could be doing to promote his channel, and himself he doesn't do, whether he's not interested, not motivated enough, or doesn't understand the true benefits of all the above.
Some times highly intelligent people, have the brain's to do great things, but don't have the common sense to do many things to help themselves in many ways.
Fact of life, and no I'm not putting him down are being disrespectful, just explaining what I've figured out about how he is from watching his channel from the beginning.
Watch long enough, and what I've described will clearly be evident.
To cover up the holes in the center console but still let the shifters move, you could use something commonly called "shifter bristles" or "shifter brushes", they're those stiff hairbrush-bristle-like things that surround the shifter stick so nothing goes underneath, but when you shift the stick just moves past in between them and the bristles interleave behind the stick as it goes , so nothing falls inside
you can also use Nitrile washers or O-rings to keep from cracking the Plexiglass as not to stress the glass as well. I would use under the bolts and between the glass and frame.
@avetho or diy shift boots lol
The addition of some type of rubber bushings in the shifting mechanisms sure sounds like a good idea. Especially to us headphone users.
That scrap header you bought is most likely from a boat. the extra pipe is to prevent the water from going back into the engine.
Definitely a boat exhaust.
This was my initial thought also
I didnt know that thank you
Why 2 pipes though 👀
That's why BOAT stands for : Break Out Another Thousand. 😭
I would recommend for your cover panels to use countersunck socket head screws. To give the ultimate clean smooth finish. No shard edges when resting arms on the panels, or your knee hits it.
Or at least button heads!
This series never fails to impress me. Always looking forward to a Sunday trophy truck video!
If you're super worried about the heat from the headers to the trans you can always wrap them in heat shield. Makes a big difference.
Should add h pipe mid way balance out sound and drone plus help with tuning just suggestion from experience in drag racing and multiple buggy quad builds keep up great work and have great day.
Honestly keep it NA, no need for a turbo, recently i've been watching a lot of Matt's Off Road Recovery videos and i cannot get over how reliable are the vehicles they build, just a simple recipe, LS, no turbo, not chasing power but torque thru gear reduction is the way to go. Great job Chris, love the Plexiglass idea
Such a god idea with the clear panels! Displays all the tech goodness, but keeps things somewhat clean, and hands / legs safe.
Will get scratched to hell, but hey, so will the metal. That's just cool patina from use.
Exhaust looks killer! More packing means more BACK PRESSURE, which means CARB TUNING! Have to adjust the air/gas mixture, and maybe timing.
You gonna be running rich with them on. Ahh, this is all standard knowledge. Very cool. Gonna be more comfy without the ear-splitting noise.
You're my big inspiration bro🫀
You’re on the right track…safety, reliability and durability are paramount! Anything else is just icing on the cake, Chris.
Build it light enough; it helps with all those things, and no turbo is needed. Oops...
I've watched a couple of your build video's, and I have no idea what do for work. You have great skills I am impressed! I'll need to watch some more. Don't know how long you've been on this but I have 22 vids to watch and I look forward to hearing it come to life!
I think the plexiglass look cool!!
Add a cross pipe (H or X) you'll retain close to factory exhaust... they are all connected to keep cylinder pressure the same. That is important... and I think you answered your own question about the junk yard pipe.. "why if you, need to go from here to there, why all this?" Same reason you went around the support bar, and also to keep the exhaust nearly equal length
Good job on keeping it all straight in your head. So many details, I'd have trouble keeping track.
You should put led lights inside the tunnel for that Plexi glass. Getting excited for this thing to be done and see it perform. Great job so far!!
You should add some rgb leds in the chain tunnel and under the dash and stuff with some rgb rock lights too. The colored light coming through the plexiglass would look rad.
My go to make shift shifter boots are old crown royal bags!!! You can cut it down and sew it up however you want and the top just pulls tight. They get tore just grab another bottle of the best quality whiskey on the market and boom!! New shifter boot!!
I've always been a huge fan of exhaust work, those welds are beautiful.
its amazing how almost everything on this build is custom machined and welded by you. if you had a bigger lathe i am sure you would have turned your own off road wheels haha.keep up the excellent work.
You should consider installing a H-pipe between your left and right exhaust pipe. There is a reason the stock pipes had an X in them. It has to do with scavenging the exhaust gases from the cylinders into the exhaust pipes.
It's like up draft on a wood stove.
The way you are setting it up you are preventing the left side of the engine from providing draft to the right side of the engine and vise versa.
For your arm rest, rounded head with allen key may feel better on your arm .... also when tightening them down (suggestion) use blue locktight on the bolts and rubber washers. If the plexiglass is mounted too tight to the frame, vibrations and micro flex, will shatter it.
I like the look of it, and you can keep an eye on the chain and all the other parts as well👍.
I'm with you there. Reliability is key. You want to ride this thing more than fix it. Good luck. I am really enjoying this build. Thanks for the video.
I’m amazed with the skill you have using very basic equipment. The end product is a monument to your ability. Thank you for demonstrating the gift people have to create something with very little. Please continue to amaze us. Thank you,
I have been watching this channel since the beginning and your creativity on getting simple task complete without expensive tools still amazes me. Cordless drill in a vice with a quick clamp to hold the trigger instead of buying a bench grinder in simply genius.
The mufflers look bad ass man. Props big-time. This thing is going to be a beast bro!!! WELL DONE!!!!!!😊😊
I love the fact that you use so many parts from the scrapyard and putting it into useful components. I do the same. I would love to see a video (shot) of you roaming around the scrapyard.
Doing a Turbo setup doesn't mean its gonna be unreliable. The most important thing to have a good, reliable turbo setup is the proper turbo for the engine and making sure the engine is built for boost. Plus you shuldn't get a trubo from with thats gonna explode at the slightest hint of boost. Anyway. Great Video!

Dude do your thing I think the idea with the plexiglass is absolutely brilliant, you are creative and go different ways that makes you unique. I just love it.
Why is this guy not getting 👍? Help him out. Let's get him a bigger budget. See what he does with it???
A good muffler is quiet, sounds good, and doesnt screw up the power to much.
The exhaust system looks great Chris. Well(d) done! 😁👍🏼
Use bristles like a shop broom has and glue a bunch together on a thick popsicle stick and spray paint it and glue around the shifters, some of an idea
It will look pretty badass. If you put LED lights in the chain tunnel to light up that plexiglass that will be awesome
Floor panels looks good, like the idea of unbolting them to access the frame incase of a weld fails but that rarely happens
I aspire to this level of fabrication
for the shifter tunnel, or the whole thing adding rock lights or just tbh lights in the shift tunnel will help make that plexiglass look better
you can use a blow torch on the edges of Acrylic or Polycarbonate to smooth them up after sanding
Your problem solving skills are awsome!!.
Nice work. Ditch the mufflers. Busa’s sound wicked straight pipped.
Thanks for entertaining us with your awesome builds!
Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪
Can't wait to see this trophy truck with all the panels on it with the lights and really see all come together. For the open spots where the sticks are you could get something like a cv boot looking thing to cover them up or you could work on your leatherworking skills and make some :P
I honestly hope that this is your most successful build yet. because i cant wait to see this operate offroad.
Bro the plexiglass is awesome. I’m stealing this idea
I admire your skill as I can't even cut a bit of 2 by 1 piece of wood in a mitre block!!!!
You can use torch on that clear plastic if you want sides also glossy looking. Countersink with the right screws would be nice. Looking good!
You know what would join those 2+2 hearders into 1, a turbo. Wink wink.
Quieter, better flow, more power
Once u said diesel i immediately thought A 4 cylinder Kubota turbo diesel build would be cool !!! Yet again another great video !!!
YOU NEED TO MAKE HEADERS 4 PIPE THAT COME TOGETHER IN ONE BIG PIPE IT WILL SOUND BETTER
I'm inspired by your talent, man.
Everything looks great on ypur build... looking good!!!!🤗🤗🤗
those headers look sick...
Adding a connecting pipe to the headers would be neat for the scavenging and adds a deep tone to it but it's not necessary, what would help is some header wraps to prevent excessive heat.
The 90s chevy/gmc 4 wheel drive trucks used the kind of paint brush bristles for the 4wd 2wd floor shifter and there are bunches of them in wrecking yard they are like 6 inches long inch and a half wide...they would work on your shifter opening...and the only downside to lexan or plexie is it scratches super easy...I always hit it with 80 grit sander when it's in a area where it sees wear and tear....it just destroys the nice clear look but eventually it will get scratched by all the sand and passenger contact
I work for the company that makes the acrylic sheet you used. To get a better looking cut edge use a propane torch on the edges. It will give it more of a glass edge look
Awesome! I like the plexi-glass console. Exhaust came out nice too. I think I would have tried to leave the X-pipe as I'm sure it's for performance but It's your baby and it's badass either way. Nice job bro! ✌
Exhaust looking good
Can add blue led under the glass can create some cool effect!
Was hoping the exhaust would go up at an angle out the middle, but I guess this looks good too 😆
I like the mufflers at the back past the tank. But it's your build, you should do exactly as you want it to be
The project looks epic. As far as the turbo I am in agreement with you it will be more reliable and cooler in my opinion than a turbocharged. You can always gear the unit to get you what you want easier and cheaper than turbocharging it. And as far as your wanting to cover the plexiglass go to a junk yard and look for manual shift boots out of older Toyota model four wheel drives or cars
Good luck with the chain drive.
Chris I agree not to turbo it. At least not yet anyway. Looking awesome.
Can add LED lighting in that tunnel and the light will come out of the edges of the plexiglass looking pretty sharp.👍🏻
If you point exhaust muffler in the air water can get down into exhaust if not running and it's raining seen few ATV mufflers and headers rust out due to muffler been high in the air with no plug and it rains lol
You can use a buffer wheel on a bench grinder and by using a compound called tripoli you could buff those corners on the plexi. Finish it with some red rouge...The tripoli will cut the plexi pretty fast.
killer ideal with the console/cover. now you can back light it
You could frost the acrylic scratch with 240 and Soft light L.E.D uplight
Chris i have to say thank you for purging when you were welding the exhaust the amount of times I've watched car building videos and they are welding a nice stainless steel exhaust with no purge its frustrates me 😂
Hee man! Great video! Always love them on sunday evening (well it's evening in my time zone) you can make a really simpele link-pipe to even out the pulses in the headers. Should make it run and sound a bit better. I'm not sure how it works but all the oem do it that way so it is functional. Keep it up with the great fabrication vids! ❤
This is absolutely amazing buildt! You have my great admiration!
Great idea to make it see through…..wanna see it in action!
You should look into super charging it and having the air intake over head, it'll sound really good and you can keep it at low boost
I think those plexi covers look great but will probably be covered in chain lube quickly. Lol
Ok hear me out, led light strips in the chain tunnel. Maybe horizontal along the bottom sidewalls? Not sure how it would look but it has the chance of being awesome.
You should put some rubber in between the shifter bolts and linkage to cancel out the sound so it’s sounds more smooth and cleaner
You are supposed to connect middle 2 cylinder to 1 collector and last 2 cylinder to 1 collector for better exhaust scavenging and optional performance
As long as the engine is not revving a long time while parked, there should not be a heat problem. If the tank doesn't leak and is not under a lot of pressure, there is no danger from hot mufflers.
I vote to place mufflers above the engine at 30° to 45° and angled outward for looks.
This build is turning out dope
For the Paneling you could add like a gasket Maker around the panels to help maybe block out sound or something
Beautiful Headers!
the plexi is a very nice tough on this amazing build. you should put some type of light in there to really show off the complex linkage
Tu bosses comme un chef 😁👍👍👍👍
Love it. But it's missing the balance pipe between cylinder 2 and 3. If you are running the exhaust that way you need it to help with scavenging or loose some power
It's looking awesome dude!
I can't wait to see what this thing can do..... But I'm also looking forward to another electric build after this, maybe a Razor MX650 w/ the 72v 12kw Electro and Co EC4P kit. 😁😉😉👍
Need to make some kind of cover for the air box! It would look good aluminum.
I like the clear acrylic. Would be cool to have it lighting up with rpm or gear selection/awd on or off.
As for exhausts you should look into a classic mini stage 1 muffler. 👌👌
Sir exhaust looks good but to Mufflers should stick out 3” from behind Fuel Tank for the sound level for your Ears. And keep them out or the Tires. Truck Cart looks good.
I like the Plexi glass. 👍
Yes I think testing things then upgrading is a wise move.
“What is a muffler that works better? Is it quieter? Is it louder? Does it sound better?” These are the real questions that need answers, people.
Man you are indestructible vehicles you should have your own factory man your own shop 12:45 lin-manuel brilliant
I am SO excited to see this project running!! I have been watching you for years and love your work, I've watched every buddy build of yours. I know you did the exhaust this way on the other buggy, know i know you addressed this in the video and plan on getting a power commander. but you really are putting the engine at a noticeable disadvantage by not connecting the cylinders and not allowing them to scavenge exhaust gases together. you would be surprised at the difference you would get if you could find a way to at least incorporate an "H" pipe between the two halves.
Intake and Exhaust pipe length alter the pulse resonances. Shorter pipes are better for higher RPM resonance. That junk yard exhaust was probably from something that doesn't rev up very high (compared to a bike).
