Project 8F8: looking good on paper lets execute rambletron
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 25 авг 2024
- quick overview, engine, mounts, camshafts, turbo, and more are in the mail or here, lets go over the plan for the engine and turbo and upgrade path and next video will more than likely be prepping engine and bolting in engine and trans after cam and engine prep to measure for driveshaft, crossmember, and start cutting up nose for turbo fab.
Companies donating to Matt is like a double edged sword. While they gain publicity by him talking about what they send and him using it, he can also call them out on their bullshit when testing on the dyno lmfao. Absolutely love how honest Matt is about what he finds. Looking forward to this project!
It's free real world research and development for these guys too! Everyone's gonna get better👌👌
gabriel guzman not really. He pretty much uses what he knows works. But he does like to test stuff.
Snake oil is a good classic thing that has been arond forever, some things have a need on one part and now granfarthered in on every other build, palcebos are just that, if the person buys it and are happy no skin off there nose, it works but doesnt make it better either.
Only RUclips channel that doesnt beg for subs just gets to the point awesome love getting pointers for my c10 build
Smart, humble and not a douche. Love your channel!
Grabasandwich there’s no doubt about that. I love Matt (no homo)
Rambling is good. Let's podcast soon!
Would watch till the battery/card filled-failed.
Good Rambletron.
Blasphemi just did an 8.97 so it's crazy to think a little 4.8 will hit that mark.This build is going to be badass and hurt some feelings all at the same time.Sloppy has changed the game year after year and has reproduced like rabbits.Crazy to see all the sloppy builds doing what people said can't be done
I love the hot rod garage guys but they cant drag race for shit..both blsphemi an the f bomb make 1k to the tire hp an you got to think even on a 28x10.5 tire, a n/a 3k pound car making 600 wheel will do low 9s..both their cars should be low 8s,finns at least stick shift.
Nice to see other sloppy builds yes there are a number that is not saying it is that build as well being all hidden about it.
Trying to drive a manual gasser that fast is absolutely insane. Whenever you take a 64 year old car and run 7 times the stock power through it with a suspension design that was antiquated in the 1970s, it's a miracle he's going faster than those guys back in the day.
There is no excuse for f bomb though.
Don't loose ur integrity Matt. That's what draws us in
It's cool that you and Cleetus are doing a 4.8 right now. You know he's gonna push it to the limit so he'll find the weak link. He's not afraid to swap a engine after every pass or two.
A lot of my builds are 4.8
@@SloppyMechanics I don't really watch Cleetus cuz it doesn't seem as natural as your stuff. I like fasterproms videos tho...well up until squirrel.
I really appreciate Matt's realistic approach to modifying the LS based engine and getting proven results that dont break the bank. Cleetus is interesting but not everyone can splurge on a texas speed built engine with built trans and essentially a unlimited build budget. Nice to dream but not everyone has the the same sort of resources as Cleetus
@Spiritpoweredinternet cleetus? He seems weird. Can't trust weird people
J T - I'd go with fake... seems nice enough though.
And yes, Matt is one of the first to show that the 4.8 isn't just a flower pot or boat anchor! Lol
Man, don’t ever sweat the rambletron, that’s where all of the glorious nuggets of information, and the wealth of knowledge stems from. I, for one, am particularly fond of these videos. Super stoked for this car and I want all of the greasy morsels you have to throw out. I’m down with the raffle, and maybe split the raffle earnings up between charity and furthering the project along? Also, are you planning to run the stock ecu?
+
I agree with this. I get the same shit on my videos for "talking to much" but I would rather hear every bit than you try and omit info to keep things short.
Taylor, you can only have so much in a video...
I am literally living vicariously through Matty here and REWATCHING all of the Fairmonts and the Collyrado build. This is just bonus!
I put the Colorado and fairmont builds on in the background like music
8s for 8 is a great concept. I'm looking to see how this develops. I think you should take all the free stuff you want - you've earned it by sharing and inspiring so many. Go ahead and put a dollar amount in your spreadsheet, but you should save where-ever you can.
I agree!!👍🏼
I third this!
"First world problems" ... Wish we had that kind of things in Guatemala. Thanks for helping us learn in the budget side, in countries where the minimum wage is $320 a month... You are a hero
Rambletron commencing in
3 2 1....
PS, Gracias!
Your research saves real dollars!!!
I’m down with a sloppy raffle. With the number of viewers and members on the page with a $1 buy in you could probably pay for the next and donate the extra to charity.
Hooray for rambletron updates. Can't wait to see how this goes. The push rod test will be really interesting.
Hell yes.. maybe when you're all done and Cleetus is sorted out with his truck engine Vette you guys could have a face off at LS fest or somewhere else he's inspired heavily by you on his latest build and seems like he's having more fun chasing 8s with that than his built 7s car ... Would be Awesome to see you guys in the same video
GixxerDad 600 only thing is Cletus probably has more into his trans/rear than he will have in his whole car. Also a lot of the parts he is using, other than the block, aren’t cheap parts. They are just left overs from Leroy.
Yes absolutely it would be fun, I talk to him about once a week and I like what he is doing. Specially just having fun and learning, cheap motors and lots of motivation, staying positive these are all things I try to get people to do and he has them all. I hope to learn some stuff from him hopefully throughout this build, I like that he isn’t scared of the gen3 4.8, maybe I would like to think I have something to do with that lol
@@SloppyMechanics you definitely do and you could tell he didn't care about the difference I think he likes the challenge of going fast as possible with the smaller engine anyway.. plus you know he'd be down...
@@munkysthrowpoop yes the trans and rear is a big help but Matt could pick up a powerglide for a lot cheaper and with a Ford 8.8- 9in be right there it just might not hold quite as much power as his trans but it will definitely be able to hold more than enough for what they are doing and Cleetus ran the trans that came with until it couldn't hold it anymore it was literally stopping them from getting the times they could have..everyone has parts lying around though and there are very few parts from Leroy on that car and the ones that are like injectors will be updated soon as they are maxxed ...can you really blame him for a going with that trans and rear it takes one less headache out of the equation, also trans and rear is more then Cleetus's whole rest of his build as well... and if somebody offered it to Matt I don't think he would turn it down either and Matt puts the same type of parts in his engine around the similar price, that's the general point of the build is to use leftover parts whenever possible and junkyard engines I'm sure Matt has things lying around that he will be using as well it's still gunna be fun and similar ET's I'm guessing from his plans .. Just let it be a fun opportunity... I've seen $5, 000-$10,000 budget turbo LS builds take down demons already just cuz something is 10-15 times more doesn't make it 10-15 times better ... Matt knows how to do the most with the least if anyone does...
Also that he is learning tuning as well as building motors, having the ability to take out the trans/diff issues alows him to focus on what works and what does not.
When things dont work, it is just a junk motor sell for scrap and recoop some of the cost and over time that will happen less and less.
How come I never stumbled on to this earlier. I love these type of builds!!!
Ramble on,, love the insights, I can't do this type of project, thank you for the ride.. love some Mark, can't wait. Cheers,ed.
This whole build is pure brilliance
I have a very similar build going on for my son. My brother donated a caged 93 Mustang roller and I built a SS2 4.8 for it. Thank you for all the great info Matt. I’m impatiently waiting for the next video😊
Love the Rambletron's! Your the only content I watch during the week , no TV , just Sloppy .. some Roadkill on the weekends .. Thanks for giving a shit Matt , it truly is appreciated
This is a fantastic idea for content. Thanks man
I think it’s a great idea for the donation thing! YOU ARE A BAD ASS.
Man I love this structured build! I am going to be glued to this channel to follow the progress.👍🏻
Matty, love how you like to tinker with everything. I have been wondering about push rods for a while. I think you guys should do a podcast style like you did in the past. A true Rambletron. I could listen to it all day long.
half way across earth from Saudi Arabia: thank you for keeping my dreams wet. I have HI hopes for this build!
"if you didn't know, that's what will happen" ha ha ha.. love this guy.
i Love the Rambling because you talk about good stuff. and you should definitely raffle parts to us as you upgrade!
Rambletron need more COFFEE!!! Matt sounds awesome cant wait for the start. Call Huggies for the diaper😉 good work as always.
I enjoy the ramble sessions as much as the burn rubber/dyno/drag sessions. I have learned quite a bit from your ramblings. Great idea on the raffles, specially if you can work it out to charity.
Man I need to get moving on my 4.8 C-10 your doing everything for me I have a PSI harness and all the other parts in boxes everyday life just gets in the way
Looking forward to this one and already anxious to see the pushrod test unfold. Thanks for all you do for all of us.
Matt just do what you do we’ll still watch it Love your work 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🍺
Just thinking how many babes i could get with a pre-Happel owned part... Raffle everything 😻!
This is going to be a awesome learning experience looking forward to this build!
Oh and rambltron vids are great fir while you work helps eat up 20 min of the workday lol
That 20minutes of sitting in the toilet with head phones on 😂
I had the 1841P in a LS1 4th Gen with like 11.0:1 compression, it was rowdy and fun but only made good power from 3500-7000. If I were to do it all again, I'd get the SS2 and tool around with a bunch more average torque. YMMV for a race car. I look forward to the pushrod comparison though, I've wanted to see what the horsepower cost of PR deflection is.
Pretty much the only car content I can watch on youtube.
definitley take some footage of tearing down the motor, would love to see some ring gapping and re assembly your way! Cant wait to see a sloppy stage 3 in the works! keep up the good work denmah!
Love it I was pissed I started this had to jump off for class and come back. Super excited to follow the build as I currently dont have the means to have a project car because my wife is military and we move constantly so I get excited for you.
Thanks Matt!! Im in the middle of the same project so this helps alot! Thanks again and good luck!
8s for 8 is awesome, but I'm excited for the next build... 7s for 7 lol jk. Look forward to the content
I swapped a 4.8 in my 72 c10 and can not wait to boost it. Your tips are helping out my budget a lot! I love how you and Cletus are both doing boosted 4.8’s and I like yours more tho cheap and simple. The way I like it!
Absolutely wicked project. My favourite since you shot for 1000 horse on the junkyard 6.0.
Your Channel is the Best On RUclips Matt Keep Up The Great Work Can't Wait To See it
So pumped for this build. Got all the cars guys at work into it. I’ve been walking around randomly yelling 8s for 8 for a week now lol.
Love the channel and the builds. And all the knowledge and information thank you. I bet the ss3 in a 4.8 with some compression and turn some rpms would make a great na street engine with good gear and converter it would surprise people.
This build gets me excited. I’m working on a 5’s for 5k(1:8th mile) build. Already did 6’s for 4K, Thank you for all you do for the car community!
What's the combo?I'm almost done with a 5.3 with a 88mm,shooting for 5s
Jan Jenkins. 6’s was 100% stock 5.3, non intercooled gt45, deka 80’s, 3k stalled fm th400 in a 86 notch, bald Hoosiers. Upgrading to 78/75 and big ass intercooler and putting a sloppy stage 2 in it. You should have no issues getting into the 5’s, your gonna make more power then I am. I Think you will be pleasantly surprised lol
Matt, Veren is the shit and his turbos kick ass. Veren also takes care of his customers and stands behind his products, so if something does happen, he will take care of you. Good choice.
Awesome project, can’t wait to see the updates and progress!!!
Interested in the sale price once complete
Great content. Looking forward to watching the build!
Videos like this are the shit great planning. 4 gr8 loves big bosti boi
Lookin forward to a build like this since fairmont 5. Awesome!!
Fresh viewer here and i subscribed about 30 seconds in,, I love this type of videos mate
hey matt i’ll be following your build, i’m i the process of doing a 4.8 also and have never done a turbo build. keep tubing i really like your builds.
Thanks Matt, love the 4.8 builds.
Great video I have a little Mazda truck to put a 4.8 engine in with a Crown Vic police car suspension in The front and back of the truck,2800 stalls 700R4,373 gears , or around $3500 so far in the build.
Your the best
Damn dude love how you break it all down. A modular build with "if" statements and costs is exciting to see/hear. oh it's gonna get hurt alright haha
You've got a tight, and specific goal. I'd say leave charity donations for your next build. This one is important to we fans/viewers, and we need you to get to end goal please. Damn Im excited
This is fucking awesome. My brain works like yours, I want to take steps forward like you are talking about. That’s why I started following way back!! #insinceF3
Rambletron On.....
Yes!
Would have loved to see a test of the 80mm T4.
Stroker? Awesome 👏
I’m cool with the rambling keep it coming
Matt, every time I watch your videos it re-motivates me to move on with my life and get back to focusing on trying to build some fast cars... I've been considering moving out to windsor ontario lately. this is your fault.
Love your videos dude! Wish we where friends!
I like the raffle idea. It's makes it easiest for you to recoup some money and be able to test more products.
Holey Snikeys! I AM STOKED! Can't wait to see all this come together.
Den you are so fking cool.
I'm almost done with my 01 mustang 78/75 billet vs racing. And i learn everything from watchin you. Im in Pa right now watching this. Im from Lagrange, Ga. Would love to meet you some day. Snowed in at the truck stop.
it all sounds good cant wait to see the build....
Wow you were really feeling that Mitigating word weren't ya? Lots of cool stuff ahead, thanks for sharing as always!
Better than MCM... you deserve their 3 Mil subs! Rambletrons FTW... keep ending sentences on the high note!
Matt you got a kid. Cage the car.
I’m excited for this build.
Thanx for continuing to post great videos.
Car came with cage so we are going oo
Sloppy Mechanics
Please do Holmes. We all love watching your videos, and all the great information.
A cage is way to important to skip. We all tend to forget how dangerous fast cars can be..
ruclips.net/video/l6Xvvnsv150/видео.html
Love it, can't wait to see the results.
Now I want to LS swap my Explorer! Love this stuff!
I’m exited for this build I’m building a trans am turbo 6.0 but If this car goes 8’s im going to buy most of the same parts for my build
I dont think theres a rambletron that I dont enjoy.. lol good to see your doing well.
I'll be watching. Interesting build.
This is why your the man matt I'm not even much of an ls guy guy to be honest. I know damn well what they are capable of and I may have a rat holed new edge v6 car waiting around for when the ls 4l80e swap bug bites but its just you doin your thing having fun with it and killing it!
Looking forward to the build.
Excited to see how the little 4.8 holds as is with gapped rings! F street outlaws I rather watch this kind of stuff any day! This is real world in reach for the honest everyday person!
Those upr mounts use a. Plate similar to the ls. Old. School SBC swap. Plates..I bought that k. Member kit last month..Upr has them. Listed..GL!
Matt, Would maybe you replace the camshaft bearings? I would send you the bearings and a tool to change them. Just let me know if you are in with this.
I would do this just to learn how to do it and do it properly and show everybody but not initially because I like to tell people not to touch them but I would be down for swapping them out when I build this engine or mess with it a second time
Matt thanks for inspiring me on doing my Foxbody 5.3 build!👍🏼Always love watching your videos, P.s you better smoke Cleetus😂
Nothing but keep going. I am learning from your videos thanks a lot
I'm staying tuned. Looking t get Holly termineiratoe x
Looking forward to this build.
Great plans...8s for 8k. I should have done this years ago
how about a BEARD update!
On the parts upgrade plan, raffle off the part, keep enough money to buy the new part then donate the remainder to a charity. For the subscribers we either win a part from the build or we donate to a charity. It's a win win for everybody.
Love a good ramble. Do it more
Good stuff man, can't wait.
Not thrilled it's a mustang...
But.... excited for the craziness...
And I relate to the A.D.D. rambletron
He said orifice. Giggity
Thick wall push rod will gain 5-10hp @higher rpms, they've aldi done that yes on the spintron, it's petty cool to watch how the valve twain reacts at rpm
You have to get the adapter plates for the motor mounts and when you put the engine in it sits really high ....good luck getting that th400 behind there I had one and sold it and went AJE everything
Cool, i have no experience with this setup but it’s easy enough for me to modify it imo
So no one takes you up on the dyno evaluation of the push-rods? Hmmm...A major company wanting to know what happens makes it more interesting.
They’re scared something will happen and people will never buy pushrods again, Elgin isn’t scared
@@SloppyMechanics AIN'T SCERD!
surprised in a good way that elgin is reaching out, more of a parts supplier then a direct sales company. Be interesting to see what they send since I know they offer a .137 wall 3/8 pushrods but if your planning on swapping on the dyno I'm guessing your sticking to their .110 5/16" might want to test them on the SS3 cam first.
This is so cool!
I love the dyno videos since I'm just learning to tune
AWESOME AS ALWAYS!!!!
"That's about it..." video is 50% done.
RAMBLEMASTER!
