The torque tube panel is holding the 2 sides of the car together with 36 bolts they are part of the engineered structure
I still dont understand why you dont have one of them Lisle 17902 wide oil drain pans that goes on top of the oil drain. Or why you dont buy a new oil drain container. 😂
Suburban give away next 😂😂😂
I feel entering would like lightning hitting the same place twice. Since the GTR winner in MAINE is the next town over from me.
And didn't see it last summer, Wondering if he still has it.
You know next time call KTM for an engine they do LS and also Coyotes that don’t cold start like a wood shipper is indside until oil pressure hits the bearings 😂
Auto engineer here. Reason for all the bolts on the longitudnal undercarriage plate is...for chassis rigidity. Thin gage plate thickness is chosen to conserve weight. An example of engineering design is...fewer bolts could have been used but the plate would need to be thicker and therefore heavier for the same level of stiffness aka moment of inertia. A high number of fasteners makes the plate act as a integral structural member of the frame even at its modest thickness as the chassis flexs and of course the bolts exist for access. Hope that makes sense.
PS. Torque all the bolts to spec so they do their job to somewhat mechanically weld the plate to bottom of the car.
Neeeeeeeerd
Not sure what's wrong with these 2, but thx for the info. I learnt something new 2day
Learn something new everyday thanks bro🤙🤝
This is exactly what I was going to say.
@@glockseason561he isn’t a nerd that was his job 😂
Just a heads up, lot of mechanic shops have c6s fall off the lift because they’re doing a job like this. Because they’re so well balanced at nearly 50/50, when you pull something like the rear cradle without the motor coming down with it, it becomes extremely nose heavy and can nose dive off the lift. So throw a trans jack stand under the front end and back end or set it on the ground while it’s not being worked on!
I was about to say the same thing!
Obviously
Let it fall cars ugly anyway
Every time Gavin says to drain the fluids, the next couple of minutes are going to be complete chaos🤣🤣
A FACT 😂
My C6Z06 that I bought for $32,000 cost me $26,000 in parts so far. Valve drop killed the engine, had texas speed build me a 700hp 427 Stroker LS3 to replace it. 4 days after it's tuned I broke the T56. My RPM Level V T56 just arrived last week. It only had 31k miles on it. I haven't even done the cosmetic stuff I want yet.
damn dog
Which is why getting the heads with the improved geometry early is essential.
VERY FIRST thing you shouldve done is the heads before you even drove it even 1 mile after getting it home from the dealer
Ypu couldn't keep the factory Ls7, did the valve drop grenade the whole engine ?
Lesgooooo!!! Thanks for setting up my new car 😂😂🤙🏽
Good luck to you bro!! 🙌🏽👀🍀
Depending on how long the giveaway has left might be my car 🤣🤣 good luck bro hope you get it.
Bro tryna manifest it 😂
I can’t wait to drive this mfk
Wish I was old enough to have a license 😂
I saw you in Colorado yesterday at the meet; you're just as real and genuine as you are on your channel. Keep up the good work 👍
I really appreciate hearing that!! Thank you for coming out and watching the videos 🙌🏽😁
You know whats awesome about this channel? Not just the builds, the drives, it is genuine people just having fun building cars and none of it feels forced or fake! Also what exhaust are you pairing with the new engine?
I had an amazing time meeting you in Colorado yesterday at SLS, glad I got you back in contact with the winner of Jaeger
Man said "make sure yall buy merch this bih expensive asf" 😂😂
Your videos made me get a 5.0 and Inspired me to give back to the community thank you
Honestly 15k for a built engine is pretty good, asked BMW for a factory reman stock N55 and it was about 20k.
Comparing the cost of a factory bmw engine and a aftermarket ls is kinda crazy
@@revjunkie7728 not really, you're taking a stock engine apart and doing more R+D to it without the price being subsidized by 100,000 others made the same way.
@@Frost640 ls is a lot more plentiful then a n55, the amount of aftermarket stuff out there for ls is insane almost everything has been done. And what I was getting at is a dealership is going to charge out the ass for an engine let alone a bmw dealership.
Thank you for all your hard work we appreciate all the content you give us!
Thank you all for watching!! 🙌🏽🙏🏽
Glad to see you back with the uploads!!
This car is gonna look so good in my driveway Thanks, Gavin
The panel under the torque tube is actually structural for the chassis. Thats why it has so many bolts
Na it's soo true only good things happen when it rains I'm 19 rn when got my 23 Yamaha r7 it rained the whole way home
should get 4 race ramps it’ll make it 10x easier to get a low car up on the lift without having to jack up the rear end
Thank you for all your work I’m glad I got to meet you in Denver today🙏!!!
you should try using those car jacks that go under all 4 tires set the lift then drip the car on it that's what we do at the dealer
Gotta love seeing POV cockatoo Gavin back just like the old days 😆
Hey I have a zl1 and I had the same problem with the lift arms not being able to get under it. I bought ramps called “race ramps” and they worked very well. Love your videos Gavin!
josh with the hitmarker xD
glad you have him around
My day always gets so much better when Gavin posts!!!!!!!
Cant wait to get my new Car! God Bless Yall! 🎉 Definetly inspired me been watching for Years and Cant wait for the content to explode im literally your hugest fan! Inspired me to build my Truck. Super duty Conversion coming soon my boy!
7:21 I called it bro there is no way 😅
You should set the old motor up on some sort of stand and see how long it will last at redline till it slings a rod out of the block
On the right side of the center console, you remove that “leather” trim piece and behind it is two 7mm or 8mm bolts. Then on the backside of that center console, where the lid is, there’s two… I think T15’s then that carbon piece will come out.
been watching for 5 1/2 years now and you never disappoint with videos!
Always a good day when you post man appreciate it so much!
i seen him close the valve and knew it was gonna be accident in the making AGAIN!! LMFAO
“Gonna be posting a lot more” *hasn’t posted in 12 days*
if you have a pallet jack, pallets work great for setting subframes on when dropping them out of cars, and with the pallet jack you can move it around with the subframe on it
Need longer videos please!!!
That thing looking cleannn u did a dang good job
We want videoooooooooss!!!!!!! You blue balled us with saying you had all that content filmed!
That saying good stuff happens when it rains is real I got my first bike for an absolute steal while it was raining
Lemme just say I'm so happy poe is around and helping so much its good to have the og back
Gavin. Just wanted to tell you, your team is doing a killer job. I love the improvement in content and how good these whips are turning out💯👌🏼
Your videos make my day everyday and im happy to see u bringing this channel back to its old routes proud of you brotha
I’ve worked on couple C6 corvettes and best way for me was dropping the rear subframe first and the dropping the transmission with torque tube. Have way more room. Also support the front on the car.
I’m really liking what your doing to my car. Can’t wait to pick it!!
OH YEAH some good ole gopro shop footage of gavin and poe. love these type of videos i’ve learned so much from these, keep up the good work gavin hope i get to come out and meet you when you come to dallas.
you never disappoint with your videos!
the new channel picture is clean i like it. also love where this channel is heading!!!!!!
It's been like that for years???
*Why dont yall Collab with Cleetus Mcfarlend? Much needed Collab!*
Redline 360 sells some pretty nice low profile ramps that come apart. 1:19
It was so depressing without your videos for the last month finally back with some good videos to make my day!
I believe Ben Pak makes low profile lift arms. I used a lift at my old dealership for hellcats that was low profile lift arms and worked super well, and worked well on my bagged gti also.
Mannnnn I can’t wait to pick my car up. You guys are doing a phenomenal job with it 😮💨
I have been waiting all day for this upload!
Most definitely going to enter for this!! Keep up the good work guys and stay safe 👍
Itsjusta6 Awesome Video I'm glad Tick Performance is upgrading the Giveaway C6 Grand Sports Transmission and Torque Tube and that a New Texas Speed and Performance 416 LS3 Short Block and I can't wait to hear that first Cold Start
Wowzers looks awesome sauwse mane
dont loose sight was my senior quote
Just got that caliper swinging by the line and screams 🤣
the new editor does an amazing job❤
Finally, I can't wait to see it finished, that thing is going to haul butt
Be sure to change the bushings in the torque tube... easier now than later!
Yooo cant wait to drive off in it! before the wrap it would of matched my 5th gen Camaro of course a manual 🤘🏻 been watching for a while now about 4-5 years its my time to win now 💯
I always just jacked up the rear end of the vettes and put the lift under. It will get high enough for the fronts to slide under with the lifts i use
Just got some more entries!!!
After watching @ondgas your wicked is 480hp to the crank they making 900whp plus cars, I’m happy Holley went to a good home😂
This is gonna be an awesome na c6 build
Transmission is in the back for weight distribution
Goodness!
Make some step up boards for the lift... Taylor Ray did it for his vet, and most of the other vehicles in his garage.. just add a board or 2 to your boards
Can’t wait to see this thing in person :)))
This thing is gonna be rowdy!
Love the vids keep up the good work Gavin! Corvette looks sick can’t wait to see how nasty it gets
Thank you so much for that! That means a lot 😁🙌🏽
Make a pre ramp out of 1 1/2. Metal that can clear the floor arms
Let’ssssss goooo love the content keep it up and can’t wait for more 🤟🏻
All the uploads again make me happy 😂
Wow so much info didn't know that wow your so smart
Stack 4 layers of 1x12s set each layer 4 inches back from The layer below so you build like a race ramp and obviously you have to make 4 of them 1 for each wheel and I would probably make them at least 3-4 feet long
Taylor Ray just made a set on his channel
Lettttsss gooo love your stuff man
Nice S2k👌🏼
Thank you for uploading man. I feel like a piece of me is missing whenever you don’t upload Fr 😂
Previous owner 100 percent destroyed the og torque tube dumping the clutch doing burnouts 😂
You need to post more 👍
I’m sure RaceRamp makes a solution for your low car issue! I have a couple sets and love them!
Can’t wait to see this thing in my driveway! 🤞
Let’s goooo big fan from New Zealand
I love watching y’all drain the fluids 🤣
Gavin says he's getting old but in reality he just smoking that good good 😂😂😂😂
Things sick!
Could we see a big block drag car build some day
17:41 wheres Poe's high mount brake light?😂
Car wash took it stole it🥲
Hell yeah buddy I’m excited!!!!
Almost made me want to join the giveaway for this GS......but then I realized it wasn't a Z. Then you guys decided to put a 416 stroker from TS along with rebuilt drivetrain (which it clearly needs). I just might jump into this one. Looking forward to the next upload guys, nice work and keep the pranks alive btw.....good stuff around any shop.
I think it would be really cool if you got a car for Jess and let her modify it however she wants. Like what Tj did with Sabrina’s c8.
Put the car in place and jack up the rear end. Then you can slide the arms under and lower it down onto them.
Yessss sirrr another upload
loving this build, is that an S2K i see though?? 😁
Been 11 days since this video…. Why is everyone getting so distant on video releases I have to watch these to stay motivated lol
Bruh deadass, life is so gloomy nowadays and it’s getting even gloomier with this long periods between uploads from everyone😂 (except cleet)
@@brutettw2079 facts
Always a good day when you post fr
Thank you for watching and having notifications on!! 😁🙌🏽
RPM Transmission is the best for corvette transmissions
Low profile ramps on Amazon work great I use them
I feel entering would be like lightning hitting the same place twice. Since the GTR winner in MAINE is the next town over from me.
And didn't see it last summer, Wondering if he still has it.
Dream car, will be having to join the party, God will bless!
