Hoovie, I just wanted to drop you a note. I'm a tech at a dealership. The blown head gaskets most always lead to bottom end issues. The issue you talked about running crapy on startup, could mean coolant in the cylinders not as a vapor but liquid. This could be bad for bearings, very bad, but not noticed until too late. Please have these guys at Wizards check the rod bearings and if it was at my shop I'd check for rod damage. This could be a very costly and bad situation if not checked, but only a couple hundred bucks to be sure all is good. I watched this video last night and its been bothering me ever since. I've said my piece, thanks for the video, keep them coming.
I dont think it was a error from the mechanic. These V12 motors are not suitable designed for anything usefull. They are just money pits which blow up after a short time running and rich people dont care about a repair bill of 50.000 usd.
Junk car reviews So in other words, if it's only several hundred dollars he might should just replace the rods. Springs etc now? Is that what your saying Unless that leads to an entire new set of issues🤷
water damage in a cyl while running does not grow over time, as soon as the engine cant vaporise the coolant, the rod bends, the bearing does not get shot before or after, it goes with it
Can we take a moment to appreciate the systematic and thorough sorting of all those engine parts on that cart? It not only makes the neat freak in me happy, it's also the kind of attention to detail and thoroughness I like to see in a car mechanic.
When you're performing major-surgery on a limited-production Italian Exotic, every piece/part is major $$$.....so your shop bench takes on the precision of a hospital operating table.
Generally everything has to go back in the same place it came from with OHC engines, because they are machined when assembled - you mix them up, you'll have serious issues down the track.
His wife should have to go back to her former life in Vietnam without Hoovie's money Foreign women become like American women when you bring the to the USA
She has her own money as well. He didn't bring her here from Vietnam. She was here for years and going to school. I agree though. Hoovie is going to sucked dry like a Hoover and not in a fun way. Lmao
Most states only allow alimony for the exact years of marriage for example if you are together 5 years then he only pays for the next 5 years or until she is financially independent bringing in more than alimony or married again.
It's unfortunate to see Hoovie go through life changes such as a divorce. The silver lining here is at least he has a great place within the hanger to store his remaining cars as well as his personal things. Even if its just temporary, its a nice fall back which a lot of guys don't generally have available to them during times like these. Thanks Hoovie for continuing to provide great content during such a difficult situation! Much appreciated.
The cylinder head nuts were loose because the engine was over heated, causing the head to expand and be crushed by the nut. When the engine cooled, the head is now less thick so the nuts are loose. I've seen this on Mercedes and Rolls/Bentley engines that had never been apart. Sometimes the head studs/bolts will also strip-which can be a nasty surprise when re-assembling the engine. Good luck.
I could be wrong but to me it doesn't look like a headgasket failure either. Headgasket looks to have been damaged while removing the head, the damage does not appear to travel from the coolant passage through the firing ring or through a oil passage. Cylinders don't appear cleaner or have less carbon buildup on the bank with the failed gasket compared to the other bank. The plugs appear to have water marks above the crush washer, meaning they were sitting in water rather than coolant/water being in the chamber. Possibly this is the miss and the overheating issue was related to something else?
I agree. Amateur diagnosis on Hoovie and pals part. The engine was a turd before the loose bolts. Because of the pre-existing problems, loose head bolts maybe true but saying it was the mechanics fault… very short sighted. This is what you get when you buy junk or bottom of the heap examples. I have owned Ferrari and Aston’s and have the complete opposite buying habits. I don’t look for the bang for the buck high mileage sketchy stuff. If you want a bargain exotic car, you are also wanting headaches.
I love it how the Wizard's garage actually takes engines apart and works on them. It's awesome to see, they're not just replacers, they're actually mechanics.
@@PlastervilleProductions TBH I love the SLS and the Z8 to look at but the 599 is an amazing drive, I can’t imagine how good it is with a gated Manuel. So I’m kind of inclined to agree with you.
Seriously. I was interested in buying his Cadillac Eldorado and we emailed back and forth a bit, and he was very fair with pricing. If I hadn't lost my storage situation I would have 100% bought that off him.
Are you sure about that? He used to work for Barrett Jackson - the most fraudulent auction house in car auction history. I wouldn’t trust him further than I can throw him.
@@AB-80X He just walks around the showrooms and hosts videos for them. If there is still fraud at BJ then I’m sure he isn’t involved. But the fraudulent activity I can remember happened like 15 years ago which is quite some time ago.
All engines are very complicated to work on. The more cylinders, the more complication. This why when I am working on engines, I don't let anyone come up and start talking to me ( like Hoovie😂). Even in a simple oil change, you can miss one thing and ruin a motor. Those head bolts have to be tightened in a certain pattern and that pattern could even be two phases of completely different bolt tightenings too. This is just one crucial part of many crucial parts of a great engine rebuild. Also, once the engine is run in safely for 600 miles or maybe 10 hours, those head bolts have to retightened again. Valves may need to be readjusted. Many other bolts tightness may need to be checked. In a certain pattern. In a certain way.A new engine is like a balloon. It grows when hot and then it shrinks when cool. They are designed to allow for that but necessary torque settings on everything in the engine have to be obeyed to let any engine survive that. In low powered engines, these procedures are usually much simpler to complete but in high powered engines, they are mandatory. All of them. There is no short cutting the mechanic or saving the cost of the follow up engine rebuild maintenance procedure. These head bolts will back off and this kind of head gasket issue will happen. And most of the time, as soon as that coolant starts scoring the cylinders, a very expensive engine disassembly and repair has to be done. With ALL of the crucial steps to have to be done all over again. Having this kind of mechanical lack of attention happen on a piece of artwork that is a Ferrari engine is truly sad to see but it proves that every great mechanic is worth his or her weight in gold. That black Ferrari is simply gorgeous. Definitely on my lottery list if that ever happens. I'm not holding my breath.😂
This channel is a great fantasy of vicarious car purchases you always wanted but couldn't afford + a comedy of a man dealing with all the issues said cars have. I love it.
Love you, Tyler! Things are going to work out, so sorry that you are going through it, it really is heart breaking 💔 and I know your daughters wellbeing is probably your biggest priority, and thats because you are a good dad, youll always have that, man, and that is a true blessing 😊❤️
Tyler, I have been thinking about that Mustang for a minute and wondered why you dont use that pressurized oil system any more? Its job is to prevent the rocker failure you have had. Rollers shouldnt need it but that tank behind your seats needs to be pressurized and opened before a cold start to keep that race engine lubed.
Those head studds will have stretced on that blown bank. All the loose studs are on the exhaust side of the head, thermal expansion of the head when it overheated, stretched the studs, which gives you loose nuts.
Its been great watching you get your groove back. The Murcie is heart breaking for us too but you know the routine. In a couple of years it pops up in the hangar because you bought it back from Dan on your right of first refusal.
Give it a year or 2 and he'll find a non running manual one and snatch it up before ed can, wizard will be looking at yachts again with a $20k quote and our boi will be back
Sympathies regarding the surgery. You are a brave soldier and I just pray the painkillers are great (especially with a glass of red wine). Dearest Hoovie I hope you recover and “bounce” back. Love your content and actually care about your well being.
Testicularily speaking, the cutting of the vascular plumbing lines really would seem to help the bouncy bucky balls to seek safe travels tucked away under the ribcage of R value in the winter, while also allowing for them to hang out below the pantleg of shorts during the coolant effect created by the opposite low hanging pendulum balls of summer that help stability when walking. Boston dynamics could make some balls for Atlas or Spot to help boost leverage high jump and long jump, and the surgery would include haptics for easy replacement.
I would be removing the oil sump and checking that the connecting rods had been properly torqued to specs. If they missed three or four head bolts/ nuts they could have missed a few rod bolts as well.
I had a client inadvertently reveal what they paid another service vendor in a similar market, and the next year my rates went up. I sent the other vendor a note and said "you've got some room for inflation now." 😁
I currently listen to videos on my slightly base rich headphones. at 2:15 I was hearing a nice engine sound behind me (So whichever microphone was in use does a lovely job 🤓) . I'm wishing Tyler Lots of positive luck right now, because of all the changes. Take care Hoovie.
It's true. Those v12's have a good length compared to v8s. No wonder it's for distinct applications, with compromise likely. I absolutely love em', probably my favorite layout.
Gosh im going to miss that mercy. That car is what got me into lambos. Thats what introduced me to the channel. Thats why i love orange cars. Ill miss your friend as well.
You can feel the utter contempt Danielson has working on that W12 Phaeton. No hesitation when Hoovie asks him if he prefers wrenching on the V12 Ferrari. Despite that being A HUGE ASS job that you need to be very meticulous about. The Ferrari just seems like it is logically laid out and maybe doesn't suffer quite so bad from the "10 pounds of shit into a 5 pound bag" like the W12.
Wizard complains that he charges too little in comparison to the other shop but Hoovie literally said they would do it for half that estimate… then wizard says that he would do it for a little more then half… so I guess their prices are similar. Hoovie went to them with 1 car… and got the same price like at wizards with hundreds of cars and “bulk” prices 🙄 And consider that wizard would replace only 1 not 4 valves for that price 😂
I like watching Hoovie because it makes me feel less lazy to do the small 100-300 repairs on my cars 😂 I just think it could be worse I could be working on a Ferrari 😅
The 599 is my absolute goal dream car. There arents a lot of videos like yours going thhis in-depth. So, I 've got to thank you for this experience. Not sure if i'll ever get to get into one myself
Hoovie should get the GTO grill for the 599. Looks so much better IMO, especially on a dark car. The factory grill looks a little busy, especially for such a sleek car design. It looks like it should be on something angular and funky from the late 80s.
You can torque everything perfectly, but when an engine overheats like that and there's probably warpage, there are probably gonna be some loose bolts... Also, a white toolbox? He has to spend half his day cleaning it. And wizard does need to raise his rated. My local Jag-LR dealer charges 195$ an hour. I'd hardly call those "exotic"
That is one thing I learned when buying a car, even from family. Just because a coolant overflow tank looks healthy, it doesn't mean the coolant inside the engine is. I change my coolant here in Wisconsin every couple years just to be safe. Letting old coolant turn nasty eats at stuff and can eventually cause internals to rust. Particularly when people in an emergency throw regular water, which often has a high mineral content in to get them going again and forget to remove all of it with fresh stuff. Point is for those who don't know, now you know...
Transporting Ferrari cylinder heads in an other Ferrari: I experienced something kind of similar about 43 years ago: I was riding with an old Ferrari wizard mechanic. He used to work with Enzo Ferrari in the early Fifies and then worked in the Lancia factory. This crazy guy was racing through Swiss mountains with his Lancia Fulvia HF. In the trunk were 2 cylinder heads of a Sixties Ferrari 250 that he had to overhaul. When he was racing through the narrow mountain curves the cylinder heads were banging to and fro! I do not think someone would do that today! The guy was a lame person unless he was driving classic Italian sportscars. It seems he changed from Lame Jack to Crazy Racing John once he was driving those cars.
The issue your 456 has is because Elring head gaskets for Ferrari of this vintage MUST be torqued and torqued again (cold) 24 and 48 hours later until they are set. Then torqued again after a few hundred miles and a few heat cycles. They are bulletproof if that is followed.
Have always assumed it belongs to his dad. I think the Blazer you see in the background on the videos is his dad's. There's also an old video of them having his son's birthday party there, which would be a weird place to do that if it wasn't just a family spot.
Betting you could find almost all of those parts without the Ferrari name on them and spend less than half that. You could probably get the spark plugs for 160 or less and the air filters for 60 or less.
im a tech at an audi dealership , our shop hourly rate is 225$..and thats just for Audis. Exotic car dealer rate would be way higher in California in LA country 175 would be a really good exotic rate anywhere
Even so he paid almost double than the Wizard . If you used your brain you would have understood a discount can only go so far. Therefore he was still robbed by them.
@@ermias75ermis2 he literally said in the video he DID NOT pay the amount it said on the invoice. Also he didn't get it fixed there. He did the shit that it took to get him back to Kansas. The rest of the work will be on the wizard. Do you guys all have a problem with your ears or?
@@grabsme It´s a scam.Nevermind he didn´t pay the whole amount.If i charge so much a fraction at the end is still too much.Get it? It´s the principle that counts. You make it sound that he dodged a bullet when it is the exact opposite and aart from that the Wizard is still expensive.

The 599 is my absolute goal dream car. There arents a lot of videos like yours going thhis in-depth. So, I 've got to thank you for this experience. Not sure if i'll ever get to get into one myself
Hoovie should get the GTO grill for the 599. Looks so much better IMO, especially on a dark car. The factory grill looks a little busy, especially for such a sleek car design. It looks like it should be on something angular and funky from the late 80s.
You can torque everything perfectly, but when an engine overheats like that and there's probably warpage, there are probably gonna be some loose bolts... Also, a white toolbox? He has to spend half his day cleaning it. And wizard does need to raise his rated. My local Jag-LR dealer charges 195$ an hour. I'd hardly call those "exotic"
It’s almost like that chassis of the 599 was designed to have a V12 in the back lol.
Saw the engine on the table at Omega a week ago, can't believe it was this bad!! Holy moly! Had never seen a V12 that far torn down before.
That is one thing I learned when buying a car, even from family. Just because a coolant overflow tank looks healthy, it doesn't mean the coolant inside the engine is. I change my coolant here in Wisconsin every couple years just to be safe. Letting old coolant turn nasty eats at stuff and can eventually cause internals to rust. Particularly when people in an emergency throw regular water, which often has a high mineral content in to get them going again and forget to remove all of it with fresh stuff. Point is for those who don't know, now you know...
Transporting Ferrari cylinder heads in an other Ferrari: I experienced something kind of similar about 43 years ago: I was riding with an old Ferrari wizard mechanic. He used to work with Enzo Ferrari in the early Fifies and then worked in the Lancia factory.
This crazy guy was racing through Swiss mountains with his Lancia Fulvia HF. In the trunk were 2 cylinder heads of a Sixties Ferrari 250 that he had to overhaul. When he was racing through the narrow mountain curves the cylinder heads were banging to and fro! I do not think someone would do that today!
The guy was a lame person unless he was driving classic Italian sportscars. It seems he changed from Lame Jack to Crazy Racing John once he was driving those cars.
I love your channel hoovie you and wizzard are so wholesome. Stand up guys
Good luck Hoovie! 🙂
"Yeah, don't do that. You might fall and hit yourself on the ground again."-- Wizard gold right there. 19:09
That Phaeton in the back 😍😍😍
The issue your 456 has is because Elring head gaskets for Ferrari of this vintage MUST be torqued and torqued again (cold) 24 and 48 hours later until they are set. Then torqued again after a few hundred miles and a few heat cycles. They are bulletproof if that is followed.
Supercar dan has to be the most boring person to fill 10 minutes with....what a snore...no more of him
Mechanic rates in belgium are between 25 and 85 euro. Why is it so expensive in the US ?
Also wasn’t EAG known for scamming customers? Wasn’t tavarish / Ed bolina / Matt Farah refusing to engage with them due to the scammy nature of it?
Care to expand on that?
599 - 456 GT - the Mustang --- You are such a lucky guy having these beauties!
If you do it yourself…you’ll know it was done rite 😎 Wrench 🔧 Everyday 🤙🏾
Or at least it was done. Sort of. Well worth a Craigs List warranty. If only you can find the receipts.
You forgetting which channel this is? If Hoovie did the head gasket it would either not get done or be back at Omega within a month lol
Of all the cars I'd agree with you on, an old V12 Ferrari is way at the bottom of the list 😂
Gotta love man that works on his own cars…whether Ford or Ferrari ❤
i fix it myself as much as I can
Hey Dan, I had to take a second look. Long time no see. I'm glad to see you're doing well.
So, Tyler is living in the friend's hangar now...
Have always assumed it belongs to his dad. I think the Blazer you see in the background on the videos is his dad's. There's also an old video of them having his son's birthday party there, which would be a weird place to do that if it wasn't just a family spot.
@@saywhatnow57 Was wondering. In a previous video, he called it a "friend's hangar"
Aluminum motors especially should have the heads retorqued on a regular basis. Over heating is a guarentee of problems.
Will the hanger become the new Hoovie lair? Also, if you ever need a 4th for pickleball, send me a note... ;)
Yeah, saw the court and thought that was a great use of the space. How many balls have hit the cars though?
Mr. Monopoly never had a monocle 6:13. Mandela effect.
6:10 Mr monopoly didn’t had a monocle, Mandela effect strikes again.
Mr Peanut does, however.
Probably mixed him up with that _other_ icon of ostentatious luxury, Mr. Peanut.
You are a very good RUclipsr. ❤
That's definitely my favorite car of yours Tyler. Especially after the manual conversion.
Ferraris are beautiful cars. They always look amazing on the back of a tow truck.
They really class the tow truck up.
I'm always amazed at how much is wrong and need fixing on cars that have such few miles on the counter.
Ball busting ball and chain, door checked nuts and last but not least, Loose nuts and bolts.
Are we starting to see a theme here?😂😂😂😂😂
Betting you could find almost all of those parts without the Ferrari name on them and spend less than half that. You could probably get the spark plugs for 160 or less and the air filters for 60 or less.
Tyler has had some curves thrown at him lately. I hope the fan views help him get back on track.
Hoovie Friday!
im a tech at an audi dealership , our shop hourly rate is 225$..and thats just for Audis. Exotic car dealer rate would be way higher in California in LA country 175 would be a really good exotic rate anywhere
Can’t believe Asian wifey was cheating on him, sucks biting the hand that feeds you!
New to your channel, and your car life. Just wanted to say thankyou as a long time amg owner . wkb, Tulsa
NEVER show a vendor you paid more for something.
Well he didn't pay more for something. If you listen with the ears on your head he said he didn't pay full shop price lol.
Even so he paid almost double than the Wizard . If you used your brain you would have understood a discount can only go so far.
Therefore he was still robbed by them.
@@ermias75ermis2 he literally said in the video he DID NOT pay the amount it said on the invoice. Also he didn't get it fixed there. He did the shit that it took to get him back to Kansas. The rest of the work will be on the wizard. Do you guys all have a problem with your ears or?
@@grabsme It´s a scam.Nevermind he didn´t pay the whole amount.If i charge so much a fraction at the end is still too much.Get it?
It´s the principle that counts.
You make it sound that he dodged a bullet when it is the exact opposite and aart from that the Wizard is still expensive.
“I’m goofy hoofy! Look how silly I am! Yuk yuk yuk! I act silly!”
Dudes prob going through a divorce with all these financial issues he claims and having to sell so many cars??
It's really none of your business, but if you watch him regularly, that should have been obvious for months.
@@superregera799 oh so it is true? Thats sad didn’t they just have a new baby?
@@markdagostino4891 Don't know sorry, not my business.
Normally I’d chime in with some Ferrari wisdom, but instead I’m here to say the monopoly man never wore a monocle… Mandela Effect.
It's always painful seeing a car collection being broken up due to poor marriage choices :/
Golddigger asians fishing for passport and money are the worst
The high kick is back boys. It must be a good day down there.
First!!! Not sure why that's important to me. Sort of disappointed in myself.
Get a vasectomy.
"Fits like a glove"...and Harry laughing with his Testarossa fitting a boat engine in the front with room for bottles...🤣
I’d distance myself from normal guy super car guy. He may seem nice, but could be wolf in sheep’s clothing.
Lol ok. I'm curious why you say that?
@@normalguysupercar “I have a solution to your woes - stop listing cars on facebook. Just post on a website and autotrader.
