    I have a 1968 HK model Holden premier which is an Australian Chev brand, I have had this car for 46 years. It runs a standard 307 cu in SB chevy, after watching this video with your daughter Emi's remarks, would love to put an EV motor in the shell of the SB 307, with engine mounts already in place and the batteries in the fuel tank, what a great conversion. The costing would be a hurdle but would love to have a ball park figure quotation Chris, I live in Tutukaka, suburb of Whangarei, Northland, New Zealand.

      Hi victor. Yes the pricing is a big hurdle for sure. I am hoping in the next couple of years the prices will come down. Unfortunately it costs more to convert than buying a complete electric car at the moment. Hard pill to swallow for sure!

Now i just ran across your small block electric motor. Blew my mind. I am in my 60's and love chevy power. If you can sell some kind of crate motors on these let me know. Keep going. We might get a little older but never give up !!!!!

    I know eventually I’m putting one of these in my 67 Camaro. It’s coming. Engines are cool but it’s the lines, the curves that make the classics so priceless. What an era I always knew I would own a classic. There is a new industry here with conversions. !!

    Yes!

I was wondering if I could covert it to electric powerfull enough to tow 4 tons to haul my metalart sculptures to burning man and other shows. I dont care if it's only rear wheel drive. Any ideas?

    • @WebbMotorworks
      @WebbMotorworks  2 года назад +2

      These motors I am using have 360 foot pounds of torque. There are motors they use in buses and trucks that have well over 1000 foot pounds . They are usually lower rpm motors so coupled to your existing trans would be perfect rather than having a single gear reduction. You are going to need a large battery pack on account of weight sucks the batteries down

  • @scalhotrod
    @scalhotrod 3 года назад +2

    Granted, I realize that electric vehicles have been around since the late 1800s, but I think I like Jay Leno's idea. Have your daily driver as an electric to "save the environment" so that you can have your traditional (internal combustion engine) hotrod for the weekends.
    That said, I'm considering doing an electric build on one of the IHC Metro vans that I own. The roof is big enough that I could have enough solar panels to keep the batteries topped off when I'm not driving it to a car show.

    I have a 32 Ford sitting in the man cave. Maybe when battery technology catches up and gives the car a 1000 mile range and a 2 hour charge, the project will be viable as a daily driver. There is nothing green about electric vehicles. Energy has to be created to make and recharge electric vehicles. People seem to demonize oil and gas but forget that the industry has given us such an incredible lift in living standards and taken us out of hand to mouth poverty from the late 1800's. No apology required.

    • @julesslim8229
      @julesslim8229 2 года назад +1

      Supposedly the localized energy production is cleaner than being localized in every vehicle even if the electricity is created by gas or coal. Plus I think half or more is made by hydro, nuclear, and solar-wind now too. Makes sense. It's easier to scrub one stack with a multi million dollar scrubber than counting on a million cats and OBDIIs to do the job. Final thought. In a SHTF scenario, I can make electricity but I can't make gas.

    @brocluno01 3 года назад

    There is a whole world of EV conversions needed. It's sustainable, it employs locals and and creates regional economies, not shipping all the $$ to Detroit (or wherever...). Kits are a much needed supply chain item. Lots of do it your-selfer's can rebuild (or build) a cool car with a decent EV kit. I'd like to do a quality '57 Vette (replica) as an EV. Make it look mostly period correct. I don't need an SBC shell, I'm OK with battery packs shaped like a V8 (Like Icons 48 Merc) and laid flat under the floor. I want 250 mile range and plenty of go. But I love the older styling cues. I do not want to drive an iPhone on wheels - just not my thing. And I think a lot of folks are in the same mind set :-)
    Keep up the good work !!

    How about converting a Dodge Magnum. It has plenty of trunk space. Usethw trunk space to add batteries upto the height of the wheel well flush. If you contact me, I can make suggestions as how to make it unique enough to make it worth it. If successful maybe you can pitch the idea to Stellantis and they can use it in their Chrysler 300. Both vehicles have similar body style. In the 300 trunk wouldn't be used. It would still be a skate board platform but the additional idea is what would make it fast charging, efficient and possibly more competitive to tesla

    @craighearn747 3 года назад

    I can see using "the casting" as the shelf to hold the components in their most efficient configuration and as mounting points for a clean fully engineered replacement installation. For me, I don't need all the faux just a form follows function package that one could use to reactivate their out of date drive trains. Imagine a time when they are the same as a rebuild and you will own this market. Especially as most of these cars will be locally used and not for horsepower wars which nobody really cares about any more. Any new gas car will outperform any old hot rod and all anybody wants is just to drive these unique platforms. Bolt in Ned plug and play.

It takes coal to make electricity to power that little vehicle. But whatever. I'm not interested I don't like instant to work I don't like not having a transmission and I don't like not having sound.
