I really admire the work you put in all the videos. I check for your new videos almost daily and always wonder what takes you so long. Everytime I see the new video I'm like "okay, this was worth waiting". The work you have to put in repairing the car and in addition to that, the work you have to put in moving and placing the camera so every bolt you touch is visible for the viewer and finally editing the video the way you do it (every transition, every splitscreen, all the bolts to mark and these things you do with graphs) must take hours and hours. I really appreciate it and hope that you'll keep doing such a great videos. Even though I don't even have a car, I always enjoy your videos, so one day I buy myself a car, i can do it at home just because of you. Thank you!
Thanks a lot Martin! Yea you definitely understand which is awesome! It all takes foreverrrr to do but I rather make something quality than spit out tons of junk videos.
Tons of work went into the production of this video so I hope you guys enjoy it. I try to make it so even though most of you guys dont have a Mustang, you can still learn with all the tips and tricks and methodology I share with you in the videos. Plus who doesnt like to see the DriftStang make more HP and TQ!!! I have a lot of videos in the works I just cannot pump them out fast enough so stay tuneeeeedddd!!!!
The fact that you didn't install the throttle body is actually insane. You're true to the viewers and do a lot for us rather than yourself. Yeah, it's not a crazy attachment / extra work to do it later but you're willing to do more work to help us learn.
ChrisFix woohoo!! You have got me hooked on your channel man, thanks to you my 2003 Mitsubishi Lancer is running better than ever!! New brakes, painted calipers, cleaned intake, fresh gearbox oil, engine oil and brand new coolant!! My baby has 158000 kilometres on the clock and is still going strong! I’m a 16(turning 17 in 3 weeks) year old guy from Australia and you have inspired me to be my best and to work on cars. I have got a huge passion for cars now thanks to you and my ex girlfriend’s father. THANK YOU SO MUCH!! 😁😁
AJN42996 im just looking forward to when he does something about the stock head airflow by putting in a more aggressive camshaft and maybe bigger injectors for high rpm power
Chris fix you are a legend. I never worked on a car before and I was able to replace the intake manifold on my crown vic following your video. It took me three days working on the street but I am extremely happy with how much I learned and how good is the car now. you saved me at least 500 bucks. Thank you so much for all your hard work. 😃
This is awesome! Crazy how much power it added on the top end for simply changing intake manifolds! It's also wild how different the engines in our cars are. At 6,000 RPM your Mustang has said enough, and from 1000-6000 RPM my S2000 is as slow as a Corolla. Awesome that there's such diversity out there in engine design!
Engineering Explained its crazy to say this to you, and I know you already know it, but your s2k is like a corolla till like 5k rpm bcoz its not a 4.6 V8 🙂 right? I hope im right haha
I gotta say man, you have given my wife and I the confidence to work on cars. We recently changed the oil on both of our vehicles, as well as, we replaced an electronic throttle body on my vehicle. Thanks for all the positivity man and keep the videos coming. We watch a lot of your videos and are very happy to see this adventure you have been on beginning from your older videos to now. Keep coming!
I’m a mechanic as well Chris but recent years after my motorcycle accident I haven’t been able to work on my own car as much. Lately my project dsm (2g eclipse) has been giving me issue after issue and I was getting tired, but your videos give me the inspirational to keep working on my project and to continue on because the joy that comes at the end is always so sweet, yesterday I did my rear cylinders and drum brakes. Thank you for not the videos but always happy and joyful, you help me continue on with my own project and so much!
The fact that this video has dislikes is proof positive that you can't please everyone. This is my 4th-5th time watching and bravo man. I changed my intake on my '08 Grand marquis and my car is running like a pro did it, thank you so very much. You list the tools the tricks and tips, bro seriously thank you.
I remember watching this video when it came out and never would I ever thought I'd have to use but. Fast forward to 2021 and I picked me up a 1999 Ford Mustang GT. About after a year, the heater hose nipple cracked off on my intake manifold. Besides all of the retro-fitting (because my car has the PI heads already) I followed it step by step and got it done--saved SO much money! Excited to get back on the road. Thanks Chris!
I doubt I will ever install a performance intake on a car; I just love to watch your editing style. Your video skills are definitely growing and it shows! Great job. Freehold, represent! 🙌
whhatt? well i can see that might not be in the comfort zone for most peoples capability's but chris makes things very easy to follow . my next weekend project first cold front is replacing the clutches in the rear end !
Chris definitely was a mechanic that got fired for doing too much and charging people too little and this is how he’s getting back at the person who fired him
Hey Chris! I also take pictures before taking apart my car as for future reference just in case! It's a habit I started when I would upgrade my PCs. Fixing a Car is like a giant more complicated computer! Thanks Chris for your help over the years!
You seem like a great family man , a hard worker , a very positive and motivated person , and you seem very happy and polite , and for that Im honored to be a subscriber and a supporter for you content. Best of luck . Fans from the middle east .
I currently don't own a car. I haven't for over a year since I moved states. So, even though I currently don't own a car, I love watching your vids. They are very well made. Extremely thorough and you are well spoken. I find them very enjoyable to watch!
Man with all the details and helpful tips he gives and the tools he purposefully used. He really cares for the community and the people watching. This man deserves alot. If Im going to guess how much time did he use to make this one video from moving the camera to another angle it probably took him at least 1 hour of just moving the camera around.
Thanks man! Yea each scene takes forever to film because I want to make sure you get the best camera angles, the most info, clear sharp focus, bright lighting, etc. Each video takes over 120hrs to make from start to finish!
No way... he had a little chipmunk wearing a ChrisFix hat under the hood plugging the leaks with his tiny little fingers. He has very fast reflexes.. he's a pro!
I don't own a car and I don't think I will own one anytime soon, But I come every night and binge watch most of your videos over and over again and its just seems so peaceful. I have watched all your videos multiple times now but I keep coming for more. Keep up the good work.
I agree and that's why I subbed last year. Thanks! No long jabber and edited very well with excellent videos! I wish more were like this!(You make it look so easy) .It is NOT.
What i like is Chris is doing shit while talking instead of just running his mouth. Other content makers run their mouths and don't do a lot. We all know who is who.
Awesome video! One thing you forgot to mention though is when bleeding the coolant system, turn the heater on max. This helps ensure all air leaves the heater core, plus as the air gets hotter it gives a physical indication that things are going well. The Dyno results are sick!! The power gains in the upper RPM range are crazy awesome!!
Another amazing video, hard to imagine how someone so young has accumulated so much knowledge and can roll it out in such a practical way. Your library is really a small treasure. You are helping thousands of people and probably inspiring a whole generation of new mechanics and auto enthusiasts. Keep up the good work, your future is bright.
Watching things like this just fascinates me on how cars work. I can't wait to get a vehicle of my own just so I can work on it and learn more about this stuff!
Be careful though bud, I was eager too, but know your threshold. I totaled my first car pretty much because I cracked the head on my engine working on it. Make sure you follow torque specs and be careful with older cars! Good luck bud
Right? Like, not safe, even for a moment. Antifreeze smells like pancake syrup and they are used to drinking from bowls. But, I'm sure ChrisFix was allllllllll over it, paranoid level.
hahaha, You are crazy he said do not put coolant close to your animals may be your dog and cat drink coolant, coolant is poison may be your its harmfull for your animals you understand
I just finished this on my 2003 GT. It's been sitting a while so I'm jumping the battery right now. I hope it works! I have 2 left over bolts so hopefully they aren't important 😂 I already started taking my car apart before seeing this but this got me through the hardest parts like putting everything back together. It's a scary feeling seeing your car taken apart!!
I'm an automotive painter man, and cleared headlights have never failed me. Remember guys 70% prep and cleaning, 10% spraying and 20% polishing! Waxing over clear is also a great way to make sure they holdup good! Keep kickin ass Chris.
I replaced my 03 crown vic pi Iintake Manifold using this video. I love your stuff @ChrisFix ! You are the G.O.A.T.! I do parts retail and my side hustle is detailing and some mcgyver upgrades and your stuff makes learning so easy!
I had a Crown Vic I put a CAI on and went from single to dual exhaust which made a very noticeable performance difference. But when it came time to change the intake due to it cracking like this I also went with a Performance Improved. I had no idea I had increased rear wheel HP that much AGAIN.
@@HAL-dm1eh The Police Interceptors '03 and up only made 10 short of the Mustang GT's 260 BHP, and already had the intake and dual exhaust setup. The base civilian models were restricted more, so they definitely have power that can be freed up.
@@enzdude Yea mine was a 98 so according to who you source the info from it had anywhere from 195 to 215 hp. I don't really know but it wasn't a lot. The later models had a good stock airbox, PI intake, heads and cam, were tuned for it and they had dual exhaust. While I didn't have the intake and cam I could have gone a couple steps up in gears and a tune and probably been pretty satisfied with the car. Regretfully I sold it.
This guy can literally build anything on a budget and make it run forever. Unfortunately due to certain laws in Serbia and because rarely anybody cares about Muscle Cars (including my dad) I can't go buy a SN95 Mustang and build it with my dad. I wish that my grandpa was alive because he, my dad and I would definitely buy one and build it as a family. Keep on the legendary work.
everss02 The triton v8 was only in the trucks via the 4.6 or 5.4 the mustangs all 96-04 2vs were either Windsor or Romeo blocks the difference is the tritons compression chamber were at a 75 degree angle for torque and the Romeo windsors were 90 for more power and when I say angle I mean the v in the center of the motor tritons are closer while mustang motors are further
I still can’t tell you how happy I am you made this tutorial. Went this route with the pi intake swap, used the rtv where you said, torqued it to spec. And it’s been a year and Iv had 0 leaks and issues with it! We appreciate you so much chris
Write out a list of each step for disassembly, and give each step a number. When you're done, even if it's a lot of steps, think to yourself it can be done in XX simple steps. Start with one and before you know it you'll be done.
@@cesarrobledo458 it's joke but ford designed these intake manifolds terribly. The 96+ 4.6 2v intakes were made out of plastic and that crossover that was leaking coolant was recalled. They kept plastic everywhere else, just not on that crossover. He has a PI intake from FORD FRICKING PERFORMANCE and it's still made of plastic.
This looks amazing, Chris! Will you be installing the PI heads as well? I noticed the gaskets left a lot of room for bigger intake runner size and a lot of the increase in power is from the improved head design. Keep it up dude!
Well you're adding a supercharger so doing the pi heads would be pretty pricey. The swap increases compression. Putting boost to that would mean forged internals, upgraded fuel system, and tuned for higher octane than even 93. Or e85 will do well with high compression and boost.
ChrisFix but you can then make a video about installing a head gasket. With that cars past and the way it is driven now, youre on borrowed time. I think you should put on PI heads and get a new gasket so everything is solid reliable. Never trust rtv on those kinds of applications.
You make it look SO easy Chris , and that’s what I like! Seeing that a person is able to do this with common hand tools and with the power of Soapy Wooder , it makes me happy . Thank you for the amazing videos Chris!

I wonder who was in charge of having their finger on the hole while it was being revved up? lol
I never even thought of that

I thought I was the only one that found that strange 😂
@@dntlss nobody, coolant can reach boiling temps

"How to perform an easy heart surgery at home using a kitchen knife and soapy water"
lol it might need more tools than that!
It's pronounced 'wooder' not water lol

Oh well as long as Chris Fix is there he'll fix it no matter what
@@chrisfix how interchangeable are these videos with a 03 Grandmarquis?

This is one of the most high quality RUclips creator channels I've ever seen. Not even a car person but subscribed.
A Turbocharger installation vid would be sweet
Jack Mclaughlin super*
Super charger is much better and more reliable
Ballz Of'steel depends who you ask... turbos are more efficient
Jack Mclaughlin turbos arent good for drifting .on concentration drift
But super has better power delivery ;)
I replaced my 03 crown vic pi Iintake Manifold using this video. I love your stuff @ChrisFix ! You are the G.O.A.T.! I do parts retail and my side hustle is detailing and some mcgyver upgrades and your stuff makes learning so easy!
Don't understand squat about cars but I still like watching this stuff lol
Hopefully you are learning more about cars as you watch!
Having a Crown Vic with the same 4.6L V8 makes these videos all the easier to follow. Appreciate your work.
I had a Crown Vic I put a CAI on and went from single to dual exhaust which made a very noticeable performance difference. But when it came time to change the intake due to it cracking like this I also went with a Performance Improved. I had no idea I had increased rear wheel HP that much AGAIN.
@@HAL-dm1eh The Police Interceptors '03 and up only made 10 short of the Mustang GT's 260 BHP, and already had the intake and dual exhaust setup. The base civilian models were restricted more, so they definitely have power that can be freed up.
@@enzdude Yea mine was a 98 so according to who you source the info from it had anywhere from 195 to 215 hp.
I don't really know but it wasn't a lot.
The later models had a good stock airbox, PI intake, heads and cam, were tuned for it and they had dual exhaust.
While I didn't have the intake and cam I could have gone a couple steps up in gears and a tune and probably been pretty satisfied with the car. Regretfully I sold it.
Sorry, Chris, but Cooper stole the show!
Haha
Whats the cooper?
French Canadian Bastard His dog
Cooper is cute. You should let him be your assistant mechanic.
This guy can literally build anything on a budget and make it run forever. Unfortunately due to certain laws in Serbia and because rarely anybody cares about Muscle Cars (including my dad) I can't go buy a SN95 Mustang and build it with my dad. I wish that my grandpa was alive because he, my dad and I would definitely buy one and build it as a family. Keep on the legendary work.
SPITED FLAMES PEW PEW!
*YeboiShnoram* when?
@@Cugy_2345 20:27
I wondered if anyone else cauht that. Was it because of the new manifold or putting some real gas in it?
@@alwaysopen7970 no its called backfire look it up
@@andrez906 afterfire*
This mustang needs more power,nice work😉
Mahmoud Dh i think he is gonna throw a supercharger in it
moamel B yehh of course
Turbo!
A coyote is needed, amazing how much better they are than the Triton v8.
everss02 The triton v8 was only in the trucks via the 4.6 or 5.4 the mustangs all 96-04 2vs were either Windsor or Romeo blocks the difference is the tritons compression chamber were at a 75 degree angle for torque and the Romeo windsors were 90 for more power and when I say angle I mean the v in the center of the motor tritons are closer while mustang motors are further
It's always exciting to see a new ChrisFix video. This is really awesome, I'm learning a lot even though i don't have my car yet.
Awesome Mark! That’s the goal!
Mark Zaikov It's the same thing for me
Mark Zaikov same
I still can’t tell you how happy I am you made this tutorial. Went this route with the pi intake swap, used the rtv where you said, torqued it to spec. And it’s been a year and Iv had 0 leaks and issues with it! We appreciate you so much chris
So get your drain pan ready
*pulls out 23 cent lasagna trays*
Yep they work great
Saves money for more car parts down the line 😅
my husband uses a plastic tote lol
You need to visit more garages. I have a buddy who uses anything for stuff and he was a race car mechanic.
As long as it works
“not difficult to do”
me: *sweats nervously stares at my engine in shambles*
I promise it's easier then you think!
Write out a list of each step for disassembly, and give each step a number. When you're done, even if it's a lot of steps, think to yourself it can be done in XX simple steps. Start with one and before you know it you'll be done.
Oh yeah yeah
@@chrisfix I am kicking myself for not seeing this tap part. everyone around me has 3/8 16 npt cant find the 18
@@ruhan_a oh yeah yeah
Amazing! This guy is a great teacher and has great editing skills. All the best! From Bahrain
Thanks a lot!
I really liked the over lapping shots.
taking pictures is genius Chris you are the man
I really liked that flame on the dyno
A little late but will never miss a Chrisfix video ever!!
Thanks a lot! That means a lot!
*drills hole into intake manifold*
Chrisfix: 🤷 op, would you look at that. Guess I have to install a performance intake. 🤷
🤣🤣🤣
I feel like he pokes holes in his car parts so he can make a video on replacing it
@@cesarrobledo458 it's joke but ford designed these intake manifolds terribly. The 96+ 4.6 2v intakes were made out of plastic and that crossover that was leaking coolant was recalled. They kept plastic everywhere else, just not on that crossover. He has a PI intake from FORD FRICKING PERFORMANCE and it's still made of plastic.
wow that's a big difference on the higher rpms, I definitely didn't expect that much.
This looks amazing, Chris! Will you be installing the PI heads as well? I noticed the gaskets left a lot of room for bigger intake runner size and a lot of the increase in power is from the improved head design. Keep it up dude!
Thanks a lot! I was was thinking to just port matching because it’s not worth l extra time to take the heads off.
That would make for an interesting vid
Well you're adding a supercharger so doing the pi heads would be pretty pricey. The swap increases compression. Putting boost to that would mean forged internals, upgraded fuel system, and tuned for higher octane than even 93. Or e85 will do well with high compression and boost.
ChrisFix but you can then make a video about installing a head gasket. With that cars past and the way it is driven now, youre on borrowed time. I think you should put on PI heads and get a new gasket so everything is solid reliable. Never trust rtv on those kinds of applications.
When are you guys gonna colab
Intake manifold leaking like crazy
Chris: takes car to Dyno and floors it
Lmao
You should do a video on installing a turbo
Anthony Figueroa haggard garage has plenty of those
yes
It’s a Mustang you don’t turbo those you supercharge em
@@joedirt6212 You can also turbo em.
It would be better to put a supercharger in it because there is a bigger chance the turbo will cause backfire
Your editing is so good! The overlay with the gasket was genius. Didnt even need to do that but it helped show how off the gasket was. So informative
Some gentle flames right there
20:16 Can we just take a moment to admire his transitions. I watched it like 6 times
By far my favorite channel keep it up! If you run out of cars to work on get a bronco!
Thanks and lol
Tbh I like how he puts holes or other stuff into his car for videos and I love it it is cool
Very nice bro..its a worth waiting video
That noise when you remove spark plug wires is so satisfying!
Ploop lol
NACA Fire And Security I
Holy smoke! Your Mustang can shoot flames! I didn’t expect that! Love your videos!❤️Waiting for the supercharger!
I appreciate that you included the wrong water pump bit, very helpful to see those little mistakes.
The dog 😍😍😍
Mechanic: sorry it is really hard to replace
Chrisfix: hold my thread locker
lmao true

That’s a lazy mechanic right there and probably not a the sharpest marker in the crayon box on to work smarter not harder
Stay TUUUUUUUUUUUUNED
You make it look SO easy Chris , and that’s what I like! Seeing that a person is able to do this with common hand tools and with the power of Soapy Wooder , it makes me happy . Thank you for the amazing videos Chris!
