I actually love the crew you’ve got these days. Dillon is the best addition for a long time. I used to watch the channel for just the cars, now I watch it for the people too. Love and respect from the uk guys 👊🏼🙏
Couldn't agree more, The big strong tough dumb guy might not be that dumb. I also am jealous they're just living car guy dream life, just do cool shit all day, that's the job
We need Danny divito on here.. now that would be impressive
Dillion gotta be the BEST addition to the crew 😂😂
Yoooo, y'all got Dave Grohl working for you now? Dayum u flexin' 😅
Tony Hawk with long hair
Great to see i wasnt the only one😂
😂I was thinking the same thing
Even sounds like him too 😅
@@CertifiedDrummerBoyRight 😅
1:57 Calv flipping off through the fire wall lol
I’d suggest an oil filter relocation kit for the filter. That’s really tight to the header. Engine looks good in the car! 👍
for sure think this is a good idea
Damn didn’t see this same thing I just said
13:44 😂😂💀 Teej didn’t look to happy right there 👀💀🙅♂️
Ian seems like a super smart guy with engines and he looks like he works super fast too
The Ian & Dillon combo kinda funny. Both have similar personalities it seems
@@thresherSTdefinitely have great chemistry. Hopefully he’s brought on full time the builds would move faster and the content
Is it just me or does that new Ian dude kinda look like a young version of Eric Clapton?
Love these in depth builds! The Miata is so underrated! 🙌🏼😊
No wheel base, good luck keeping that car straight
@@Insidiousk20_dc2 Not a drag car, not meant for straight but know what you mean
Keep it up TJ! Been following you since Calvin’s garage days and wow.. i feel proud to see how far this channel has come! Best of Luck!!!🎉
When you said the white FD RX-7 build was 6-7 years ago my jaw dropped... I can still remember you buying the dang thing and I believe it was the first time you did an all white with carbon accent build. Time is flying my friend. It has been astonishing to see your channel progress and evolve as well as you and the whole team.
came to say the same thing wtff
Thing is coming together! Looks good! Yeah the bigger pilot bearing is for the other bellhousing - they made two different t56 setups - the fbody trans, bellhousing, pilot bearing and throw out bearing - and one for everything else. And if anyone is looking for corvette spacing on the accessories, Holley makes alternator and power steering brackets that are just like the hard to get ctsv setup. Just like this one except it’s two pieces and closer to the block. Love the balancer 😎
I wanna thank Dillon for making my day. Just died laughing at Randy Newman 🤣🤣🤣
TJ Hunt Great Video I'm glad you guys made some progress on Danny's LS3 swapped Miata Build and I can't wait to see more on Sunday
only 8:40 in and I feel like Calvin got his flowers today, love to see it.
The crews banter is 10/10.
The fact you thought you'd do this in one day is also hilarious, just like the banter 😉
Ian is an awesome and funny guy! Perfect addition to the crew. 💯
Time for another great episode. Loving this series so far.the intro to the video was hilarious
Been friends with my buddy for 38 years now... hoping you add more years with Danny and the boys!
I ABSOLUTELY LIVE FOR THE END OF VIDEO BLOOPERS 😂
I have been looking forward to this video for the longest. Appreciate the updates TJ
Congrats on Danny.. cannot wait to see this build finish 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
Yooo TJ!!!! -The Subscriber that made the comment referring too your Gasket… Deserves a REWARD!! That was a big F-up, you would of never known about if it wasn’t for that guy
I respect and love his input! But I knew it was backwards on my own accord Friday night, and fixed my own mistake at my expense as well ❤
I love how a few "hour" engine swap, single video turned into a multiple video series on a bada** swap😅 👏 👏 🔥
Stay blessed 🙌
Tom's Turbo Garage did one years ago and I've wanted it ever since but then I saw Drivetribe planning a 2.0 V10 build for theirs. That should be epic. It may only have 220bhp but the sound will be awesome on that high revving engine!
Awesome video as always TJ Hunt and Crew.
Cannot wait to see the Miata rip! Really enjoying following the build.
I am so incredibly stoked for this beast of a go kart!
Honestly more invested in watching this build more than any other.
some sound deadening in the interior while its apart might be nice - love the build!
Bro that was so funny when Danny was squeezing that piece in I was tryna poop😂😂😂
You gotta get Danny some Baller wheels
Good to see Jumba, feels like it’s been a MINUTE. Haha
Killer vid add usual. For thread repairs, where there's enough meat in the parent material, look into stocking some Timesert options. They can be a lot more robust (depending on the parent material) and are a more permanent repair when compared to a helicoil.
Such an inspiration working hard to live my dream like you tj
Finally! An update on the build hahaha I've been dying to see this hahahaha
Milk , cookies , AND a new Miata video from TJ?? Yessir 😎😎
Ian’s a vibe. Keep him around!
Man this video is absolutely top level 👍 Love the team dynamic keep up the great content
Lmao . 😂 . Showing tj what he looks like with his shorts , hilarious . 😂 .
Calvin with the face smoothing filter looks even smoother than usual
I love that the entire video was filmed with the skin smoothing on the camera 😂😂
You're rebuilding an LS while I'm rebuilding my KA; I'm actually block-sanding my timing covers while I watch this in prep for the paint booth.
I've already soaked the head, pistons, cams, oil pump, buckets and valves in Diesel, gave them a scrub and they went from poop brown to bright shiny silver.
Thankfully, no signs of hot spots on the cams or bearings, and the cross-hatching was good on all 4 cylinders. My head gasket failed around cylinder 4 (exterior oil leak) and it was a mess to clean, but my timing chains and tensioners were looking a lot better at 185k than the tensioner in that LS3. Yikes.
Giving everything on the exterior a coating of high-temp enamel tomorrow; beginning with primer, basecoat (for lettering), Cast Iron topcoat, then gloss clear to seal it off and give it shine.
All the engine bits will be flushed with parts cleaner then soaked in hot oil for a few days prior to reassembly.
My KA will be looking just as minty fresh as that LS when it's done; only you're gonna have a full 375HP advantage over my (stock) KA when you're done. 😂 A bit jealous, NGL.
Glad you guys caught the damage in time and did a proper teardown before gifting the car...you don't really know 'til you know, you know?
Loved watching this build start to finish. Looking forward to the finished product. Keep it up y'all!
Dillion is a great addition to the channel TJ hunt loving the content on your RUclips channel keep up the content TJ hunt
🔥🔥Woah this whole build went crazy 😂 you guys should also maybe swap the dash for the NB DASH
Fellas great work, Due to the pilot bearing being tight turn the engine by hand to ensure everything is in it's place.
You guys got the dude from the tv show Lincoln lawyer 😂
Tj hunt - we have a new tea bag
The team- please dont say that on this channel 😂😂😂
These build vids are so damn fun.
Hearing dillan sing short people got actually made me laugh cause my dad sings that to me all the time even tho I’m catching up to him😂
I bet Danny is just loving this
Great video series I’m doing the same swap but in a 2005 RX-8
I think TJ is the only youtuber that gets bullied in his own videos and I love it hahah
The most youtuber title and thumbnail 😂 Teej hittin the algorithm with easeeee
So happy that it starts July 18th! That’s my birthday!
Please make Ian a fixture of the channel! Dude is hilarious!
Dillon + CREW is MVP now holy, tbh i enjoy alot more these videos :D less skiping
This is going to be a fun ride
Got all of my merch in its a good week🤙🏽
I ride that train sometimes. Doug Demuro shoots his videos a couple hundred yards away on the other side of the tracks!
The pants 😂 Dillon should get a raise.
watching these videos makes me miss working in a garage
The humor is my favorite
I like Ian.. Keep him forever!
That oil filter going to cook maybe a relocation kit? :)
Great build though
Hey Barbados is nice this time of year
Dylan is a vibe 😂 dude is an absolute unit of a homie you should all take a Baja trip Rosarito sand dunes and tacos 🌮 air bb is the way abroad trust
im a short bigger guy and I love the new t-shirt literally feels so comfortable and is long enough to cover the gut but not to long where it looks like a dress
Ian is a vibe
I am enjoying this build as I have MK1 MX5 and was looking to put a coyote or maybe a Ferrari V8 engine in it. What do you think?
Your not gonna have anything on ricer Miata’s SR! haha can’t wait to see the end product!
Was hoping for this one 4th of July
Will the stock Miata brakes hold up to the power of the Ls? or have they already been upgraded?
Iain is the man. Love that dude
Dillon has his own ReefFraiser
Damn lots of work but car looks awesome 🤙
I'm seriously LMAO at the fact I did the exact same thing with my bell housing because of the wrong pilot bearing 😂
Is that a monster I see? FTB 🎉
Love the build!!!
Calvin looking like a micro version of The Rcok these days
Keep the miata videos coming
they don't know what they doin hahaha love these guys🤣
Haven't been this early to a video since before the beemer build started.
“I don’t know why they’re wide body-ing pilot bearings” 😂😂
I remember back in the day they would put a 5.0 mustang engine in those miatas and called it a miata monster.
I still can’t believe that crank pulley is The World’s Only Tunable, Rebuildable, 2 in 1 Harmonic Balancer
Wish I could do this to my Porsche 944. Plans for next year though!
I would love to see this build!!!
Drinking a Monster even with the NOS sponsor🧐
Dylan is too good, so funny 😂
That fuel pump about to internally leak like crazy 😂
Good Morning guys. 5:54AM here in Philippines 🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭
Heat wrap the starter and oil filter!! being so close to the headers will destroy the starter and it will fail, I learned that lesson the hard way.
That Ian guy is just that guy😮
YES TJ THIS IS WHAT WE WANTED
Maybe I’m as baked as Kevin was in the last video, but please have Ian stand next to Kyle in the next video for a comparison 😂😳
cant wait to see this done!
Pretty sure you should be using the tw300 pump with that much engine, my ls1 monaro is 350 hp and the 300 is the version needed.
In Oxnard (Ventura county) there’s also one, shits sick
The middle finger through the fire wall 🤣 send some merch for noticing 💀
will you be restocking the slow sundays rx-7 tees?
I wonder what Danny's been driving in the meantime, hopefully one of the other cool cars in the stable :)
