Really hope if he meets you guys again kyle gives you a ride in the nsx / rowdessy. Great to "meet" you 😅, hope you come back and show these guys some amazing places /stuff/ tips and tricks.
Wow, I talked to Brent briefly about this very subject a while back. I think it may have been before you moved to Florida. I own mini airboat association. If you need any info I'd be glad to help. I also build aluminum hulls.
Boat tip: Instead of putting it in the pool I like filling the inside with water and marking where water leaks out on the hull side. I’m born and raised in Florida and a dagum k swapped budget airboat is some A1 Florida-Man content. I love to see it
Mechanical engineer here, would suggest you run a bar from the rear mounts downwards to the diagonal bar. It'll provide better support and won't have a bending moment on the front mounts as a result, and should be much more stable.
@@r7kelley553 true! just the princible works for anything structual, roll cages to bridges. it's all about making sure load paths are clearly defined into nodes or key location points

Yeah either 1 of those NSX's are so attainable. Those connecting rods in the MR2 are in anyone's budget. The AWD train in the Civic,& Rowdessey he said himself are several thousand dollar upgrades. Billet bell housing for those sequential trans I'm sure they're giving those away. Guys are living with a bigger budget than most obviously.
@@Justaguy-pn4vn Spoiler alert custom cars cost money. While it might not be realistic for someone to have all of those at the same time, they don't do anything crazy like B is for Build or Rob dahm buying a 100K CNC machine. That billet bellhousing on his hatch is 3.3K it's not like unobtanium.
@@RacePhreak right? I don't even understand how B is for Build even affords everything he buys with like 200k views a vid. The heat in that shop alone probably costs 2 grand a month.
Wow, your creativity constantly amazes me. You definitely know how to make fun videos. It makes me want to continuously look for new materials from your show. Your shows are definitely very exciting. Thanks for making great videos.
Kyle had really good questions , and without knowing it , did a great interview just because he want to understand and learn about the stuff. Good job!
What a cool dude at the blade shop. Love to see shops like this, survive and thrive, creating their own products. And the fact he knew about BoostedBoiz was epic as well.
Idk I've seen some pretty nasty airboats with choppy v8s that have held up pretty good. However they were Certainly more high dollar machines used for the starting points than Kyle's little ditch pickle. Lol
When you guys are ready to make it fast my brother makes racing hulls out of carbon fiber and fiberglass hit up outlaw airboats. Hull he built his boss weighed 175 lbs
Hell yeah. Can't wait to see more airboat footage. I used to have a 13ft fiberglass with a lycoming 0540 and I was running her hard. Like I always did.And my wooden 2 blade prop got compromised and came apart sent one half of it right through the haul ! The cage is there to protect the prop. It's not going to stop a chunk of blade. It's just a death missile if it comes apart. 🤘
Fun project! Can't wait to see the old twin turbo setup from the MR2 on this thing!😁 Just a heads up, you should never lift with 1 side of a 2 post lift. You should also never hang something under the legs but as long as you use both sides and it's not too heavy you'll be ok.
Really depends on the lift tbo, on a hydraulic lift with 2 rams yeah, sound advice, but on a screw lift no problemo, or a single ram with a link cable.they couldnt care less how unbalanced the load is. the lift in teh video is obviously hydraulic and due to being modern likely a 2 ram effort so yeah shouldn't unbalance it
Your prop is on BACKWARDS!!!! An easy tell is to look at the stickers on the blades as they will always face the front of the boat/aircraft. Love the build, have fun guys!
Glad you threw the safety talk in at the end. Know absolutely nothing about airboats, but I do know they can be very dangerous if you don’t know what you’re doing. Hopefully it turns out halfway decent and works!
@@SirVic42 Drews Airboat is not LS swapped. It was Built that way from the Factory. Just because it is LS powered does not mean it is Ls swapped. Most New Air Boats Built now Come with a LS in them from new.
Well I can officially say that the boosted boiz have been an inspiration. I just turned 18 last month and decided to impulse buy a 1999 honda civic ex 5 speed. Picked her up for 250. Going to be a fun project but if it weren't for watching them I'm pretty sure i would've went v8🤣
Damn nice pick up man. If ur k swap have fun. Make sure u get a eg subframe and manual rack with the eg/integra universal for the steering shaft. The subframe will make the engine sit correctly with the axles. Have fun
I just gotta say it would be awesome to see a supercharger on a k series... also would really help with torque! But I love the content and you guys always impress! Keep up the good work!
Very cool project and can't wait to see it finished. I could be wrong on this but the flat side of the prop looks like its facing the front of the boat and the curved side is facing the rear. I believe the flat side should face the back and curved should be forward, maybe it just looks that way. Looking forward to seeing it progress.
The Sensenich tour was really cool! It's awesome to see you always finding local shops to work with and how you guys just tackle a project head on! Great vid, Kyle!
Awesome project guys, love it...🤩✨👍 Turbo it out the gate or set that in motion immediately...💫 No hesitation...🏃🏾 It's in the name.., Boosted Boiz...💥👍
Y’all are sticking to your roots, while doing some wild builds. Nice units that started as a death trap. It’s awesome to be along for the ride watching this shit.
Never thought Id enjoy a Kswapped airboat build so much but now I cant wait to see you smoke JH and ZZ at their own game when you slap a turbo on it!!😂
That Rag tag airboat makes the Rowdsey (in her original 500 buck form) look like a Rolls Royce Phantom! Wyatt all I can say is film from shore. Say goodbye to Kyle cause he’s goin downnn

Hey Kyle and Wyatt I lived in Haines City in Polk County and I used to have a nice airboat with a 427 stroker Prestige Motorsports Engine and it was so fast it would make my stomach sick it took off so quick lol but it was so fun. I can't wait to see you and Wyatt get this thing finished. If it was my airboat I would redo the actual prop cage surround. It would be a lot safer.
Love Wyatts lazy, relaxed humor he’s really good on camera You know he’s a keeper Kyle! Looking good great Kyle keep up the great work you not looking so scrawny and I know you will keep it up because you’re a highly motivated person which has definitely paid off from the early days Respect
This is the coolest video in a long time. Not underrating the other content but building something totally new and dealing with local businesses with introduction to their work. Perfect!
That guy is a cool dude. Would be cool to do a video with his reaction of the finished product. Maybe he can go out with you guys and bring his airboat.
Hey Kyle…. I’m pretty sure the prop is on backwards. Thinking about crankshaft rotation direction and looking at the belt drive setup I’m pretty sure the prop will spin counterclockwise looking at it from the rear.
That entire - Unit comment before 30 seconds , I can imagine Uncle Eddie Pulling up, YUPP THIS HERE BOIS is an AIRBOAT N MAV - MINI Assult Vehicle, not to be confused with the RV.
Great video, I had to watch the whole video! Definitely super cool seeing start to almost finished. I look forward to seeing more longer video of a project, start to finish.
before you finalize stuff you better make those engine mounts adjustable so you can tune the angle of the rotor. its more or less like a jet boats trim you want to get the front end up but not too much that your planting the ass end to hard thats a massive mistake i see so many people doing with jet boats they set it to max to get that massive roost that looks cool but doesn't give cool performance.
It was good to meet you Kyle, glad we had something that quick for you guys. Hope the build turns out great.
Love that you helped him out, hes such a great guy. Killer product
