Instead of duct tape to seal the blower filter, I'm not sure the proper name but up here we call it camper tape. It's a roll of foam you can get that comes in 1in-4in wide and there's some 1/8-1in thick foam that's fairly solid for being foam but has 3m sticky backing to it once you peel off the wax paper protector. I've used it to seal a k&n filter before on an aluminum turbo intake.
That hat has a couple dimples cast in the top directly above the front bolts, They make plugs so you can drill/tap the hat, then reach through with a 3/8” extension, put the socket on & remove/install the bolts. In your case I’d just drill the threads out of the riser, then you just have to hold the bolts & remove the nuts from the bottom.
I love these vids. I was also thinking about how tough it is on road. If you'll be in Joliet I'll October Route 66. I'm going to bring you guys some decent food instead of junk. It's the least I can do. Mikey is always awesome met him at Hall of Fame in Auburn. Awesome.
AG 1 is good stuff. I have enjoyed watching you work on your monster truck. Thanks for sharing. I never thought I was so interested in knowing the inside story of you're professional job. Information and content are great.
Only recommendation I would say is to find impact 3/8’s socket and extension the chrome ones will wear your impact anvil out so then your sockets and extensions just fall off when your in upside down spots
Did you use right stuff on that blower gasket? Had to get after it to break it loose Lol, I glued a diff cover on a Chevy truck 12 bolt, and almost ruined it trying to pry it back off, that right stuff is no joke. Sticks to anything, even glued over a hole in an oil pan, and it held to get off the trail.
Hey I’ve always kinda wondered what is y’all’s opinion like pro monster truck drivers in general About whistling diesel monster maxx? I mean it seems like it’s extra beefed up but it doesn’t seem like it’s got the torque ON DEMAND like the pro monster trucks. Like u def need that to pull off all the bad ass tricks n flips n stuff. Maybe he just wants the biggest monster truck idk. But it does seem like a big feat of engineering…. P.S. glad u didn’t change the name of your channel
Nice. Don't you tighten the compressor crosswise so that it doesn't sit flat? Maybe it doesn't need to be drawn crosswise. Great movie as always. Many thanks.
I LOVE the early bronco in the background!!! Please tell me there is gonna be content on building that!!! I’ve got one and would love to see content on that!
Dude, I absolutely love your videos! Especially ones like this of working on the truck. No other monster truck driver does behind the scenes stuff before shows, and does videos of working on there machines.(that I know of at least) Keep up the good videos brother because ik imma be watching them. Iv always found interest in these trucks every sense I was little and I’m 22 years old now. Luckily I found you. Keep up the good work Man!!
So, what does your truck get, about 4/ GPM? Considering the Performance Engine, blower, and all the fuel lines feeding into the intake, it has to suck down some serious fuel. I, like many others, enjoy your video uploads. Peace
It's crazy fuel even makes it into the cylinders with the injector hat being on top of the blower. That's how carbureted blower applications are, so I guess it makes sense. 😛
Y’all remember how mike broke his rear differential like 2 or 3 weeks ago? Well I just got back from a monster truck insanity tour in West Jordan and this extremely hard to control front-engine truck called Rat attack also broke it’s rear differential during freestyle. oof.
Awesome glad you got those sponsorship, have you thought about hooking up with cleetus and possibly putting on little shows at his eventsand dont forget the duct tape
Love these types of tech videos you do showing the work that goes into keeping your truck running right. Keep em coming!! On a side note, would it be possible to drill a couple access holes on top of the injector hat to get to the two front bolts? Looks like a total PITA!
I'll never understand why the divots in the hats dont come drilled and tapped for an ORB plug to get to those bolts. Those are a bitch. On yours with the spacer you're using could you helicoil or timesert the front two holes and come in with a bolt from underneath?
Appreciate the extra time you put in to show us how you get it done and keep it going.

RIP Scott. He will never be forgotten in the Monster Truck industry. 🕊🕊🕊🕊
I used to make anti seize. Ingredients: amber lithium grease, aluminum paste, zinc and aluminum powder. That's it.
Secured the AG1 partnership 🤝🏻 Good stuff

AG 1 is good stuff.

That's what I love about monster truck drivers they have be "in shape "
Y'all working so hard . Great to see the sponsorship. Good to see hard work rewarded.
Overkill’s time in word finals was a great one 2014,2015,2016, and 2017
Only recommendation I would say is to find impact 3/8’s socket and extension the chrome ones will wear your impact anvil out so then your sockets and extensions just fall off when your in upside down spots
I was at Monster Truck Throwdown today. And it would have been cool if you drove there Mikey.
Awesome job
Great job mate! Appreciate the effort filming takes, it gives a real insight into the behind the scenes of the MT industry
Have you ever had a blower explode where you needed the restraints?( I know they're required.)

WE NEED NEW MERCH! SELL US SOME SWEEEEEEEEEETTTTTTTTTT DESIGNS! T'S! STICKERS! HOODIES! COME ON! $$TAKE MY MONEY!!!$$
Put loctite primer on the bolts before you add the loctite to it. It activates the bonding process.
Thank goodness on a Bug Catcher the bolts are in front of the butterflies!

If you want those bolts to stay in there use the green loctite.

Love seeing a sponsor like AG1 on V2vids
