So don't wait.
Go over, get your merch now.
We really appreciate the support.
You guys getting into these, watching the videos is the only way we're able to make
this content and do giveaways this big, and I greatly appreciate it.
Let's get to the video.
Well, we got mullet back in the shop, Josh, and we got our work cut out for us because
most of you know when we built this car, it was not a dry sump car, and now it's a tall
deck, which means the heads are farther out this direction.
Not a whole lot, but it does change some stuff.
The good news is it doesn't change anything from the turbo down because the turbos are
solid mounted, but what it does change is some of the stuff to the turbo somehow, which
I have no idea how, unless Taylor did something wrong here.
This tube here from the header to the turbo actually works, so that's nice.
On this side, we do have to modify the tube from the header that goes to the turbo.
So we do have to modify that.
All the intake stuff is different to it, but we do all the intake piping.
No big deal there.
Kyle will probably get on that while we're doing the hot side.
Down pipes still all work.
All that stuff's good.
One of the things we realized we had an issue with is we're trying to figure out the fuel
pump that we mounted before all the billet mounting stuff basically hit where the dry
sump pump is now, the new Fluidworks dry sump pump.
So Taylor flipped the bracket.
We talked to the guys at Fluidworks.
They super easy to flip the bracket, put the thing on the other side.
We did that.
Well, not everything's installed in this car, so we did that, fit great, realized we put
the alternator in.
The alternator hits the dry sump pump on that side.
So now we're moving the dry sump pump back to the driver's side, and we have to mount
the fuel pump to the back of the dry sump pump, which means if that works and it appears,
which it should, we'll just have to redo all the lines, the return lines and all the stuff
from the fuel tank to the pump to the engine.
So not the end of the world, but we spent a little bit of time getting the other side.
Just realized the alternator was in the way, so not ideal.
But another thing we have to worry about, which we had to put a dry sump tank somewhere,
and the dry sump tank that they sent us, that the guys had over there at the McFarland,
this might've been off of the Peterbilt's or something.
Yeah, that thing's massive.
I think this was off of the merch trucks.
Probably.
Yeah, so.
One of the used units.
We said, listen, we've already got no room up here.
This is not going to help our situation.
So James got us one of these, somehow, literally in just over a weekend, got here Monday morning.
Now we have a smaller diameter, right?
It's a little bit taller.
It still has some capacity, but now it's taller.
We've got plenty of height.
We just don't have any of this.
Yeah.
And if you look at this, you'd go, all right, well, plenty of room right here.
Well, there's got to be a radiator here that mounts here, so they're going to drive us
over the radiator today.
We're going to take this off, because if it fits with the radiator, it'll definitely fit
with the fuel cell.
So again, just a lot of things that take a count here while we're trying to fit all this
dry sump stuff and fix all the headers and everything else.
But we're going to get it done.
Look at this, too.
Taylor taught this, which is crazy, but these are all the O-rings that seal the header.
So basically, these were all tore up, which isn't the end of the world.
We could just replace them.
Looks like they had a rat's nest in there making a nest or something out of them things.
Yeah, when they were eating it.
When they were eating them or something.
Doing something.
I don't know what they were doing.
That's rough.
So we're going to get these replaced, and then we're going to put that header back on
and start the fabrication on the hot side.
Probably have Kyle start on the cold side, and then we got to figure out where to mount
the tank with the radiator, get fittings or an ASAP and overnight them, and I think
James is going to come plumb this thing in the next few days.
So we got a lot of stuff to do, and we got to figure out where to add 800 to 1,000 pounds
of lead because we got a grudge race at the moment.
No, I'm just kidding.
I'm putting that out.
No, no, no.
That's going to be a fair grudge race.
A fair?
Except for 1,000 foot's not...
It'll be all right.
I'll figure it out.
I mean, if we're...
He's going to have to play catch-up.
That's all I know.
Yeah, but once we're out of the gas, he's going to be catching up quick.
Yeah, we'll see.
That's all.
We'll see.
All right, well, we're going to get on this.
So we got to mount this, dry sump tank, we got to do some fab work to the tube going
to the turbo, we got to put the radiator on, mount the dry sump tank, get fittings fit,
intake piping, blow-off valves, et cetera.
We may have to, hopefully not, obviously, because the paint is really nice on this thing.
We're not going to hopefully grind anything off the hood, but if we do, we do.
So we're going to get started.

Let's get back to it.
It's almost hitting this frame tube right here.
Yeah, so that's all we're dealing with on the driver's side.
The passenger's side bolts up.
The driver's side, we're just that close.
So Taylor said, probably just gonna cut this weld.
We got a new V-band.
We'll put the V-band together, and I bet that tube will go in there.
I think so.
It might not sit all the way in the V-band, but it's gonna be enough.
Yeah.
Worst case, you could even...
I don't know.
I think it's gonna be really good.
I think it's gonna be fun.
I think so.
That's it.
Just that little bit right there is all we need.
Yeah, because it's...
It almost snaps in there, but you'd have a load on it then, and I'd be worried about
it getting hot and having an issue.
So, we'll cut that V-band off, and put the clamp on it, and tack it back to that, weld
it up.
But, man, that's not terrible, honestly.
No.
We got these on up here.
See, we got our motion dual seal deals up here.
What we do is, we take this side and this side, Taylor laser cut this eighth-inch plate
that goes between them, tape it.
That way, you got an eighth-inch of play both ways, and this thing can move around and have
some room to do stuff without cracking.
Yeah.
That's why we don't mount them solid on both sides, just on this side, then we use these
up here.
Well, it'll actually have more play away from the intake because of the clamps.
Right.
Yeah.
So, you'll only have an eighth-inch in, but you'll have more this way.
Right.
A little bit more that way.
Yeah.
All good.
All right.
Well, yeah.
We'll cut that off.
We'll start with this hot side.
Once that's done, the hot side's done.
Nothing else changed.
I mean, all of our wastegate stuff, downpipes, again, all that stuff's the same.
So really, we'll do that.
We'll do the cold side.
We got to, obviously, put the ball valves back on like they were before.
Do these?
Yeah, there we go.
Boom, boom.
I'm looking forward to having to cut those off because there's a possibility you might
put another standard deck height big block in it.
So we got these.
But yeah.
Yeah.
All right.
I like it.
Yeah.
So we got the old V-band cut off right above the weld, new V-band going on, and hopefully,
hopefully, cross our fingers, this thing just snaps right in there, Taylor, like a puzzle
piece.
What do you think the chances are?
I don't know.
You're not even going to guess?
Nah, not really.
I'm just hoping.
I'm just hoping it works.
There you go.
Nope.
Too long.
Still too long.
But that's okay.
Too long's good.
Too long is good.
But you also, look at this.
That V-band's a little bit shorter.
It looks...
Oh, yeah.
So that's fine.
We can cut some off the straight pretty easy.
Yeah.
It's inside of there, though, now?
Yeah, it's inside.
So there's your...
Oh, yeah.
Okay.
Well, that's fine.
Because really...
Yeah.
I mean, you don't need a ton.
Three-eighths or something?
Half inch?
Yeah.
Okay.
That should be easy enough.
Should be.
All right.
Close?
Ooh, real close.
Is it in up there?
Yeah.
Oh, that's good.
I think that's it.
Yeah?
That's it.
Maybe it belts in a tiny bit, but I think that's good.
Yeah.
Hey.
It's got a little pressure in there, so...
I don't want to jinx ourselves, but that wasn't terrible.
No, it wasn't terrible.
Okay.
All right.
We got one more little hurdle we got to get over and...
Little.
Yeah.
Well, I mean, it's not the end of the world.
No.
We got this oil fitting back here that is against the mid-plate, and it needs to go up about
another three inches.
It looks like it's like a...
I don't know if it's like a welded fitting to the bottom.
Yeah.
It's like a threaded tube.
Like with pipe thread on one end, and then welded to the backside of the fitting.
So, the option really is to make it longer, but my concern is if we make it longer, it
having a bunch of vibration at the bottom, and that's going to be a problem.
So, I don't know, really, other than making it taller, though, we don't really have a ton
of other options.
Yeah, because I don't think if you tried to 45 it out of there, like, you'd be able to
get a fitting on it.
Like you said, the only other option would be, though, is if we pull the motor out, put
a fitting on it with a long hose already on it, and then put the motor back in.
Yeah.
But then, if it ever came loose, you got to pull the motor out to tighten it up.
Yeah.
So, that's not really ideal.
No.
But we got to figure something out, because that is a problem.
That ain't it.
That's a problem.
All right, Kyle's already starting on the cold side.
Yep.
Watch there, you know.
Nice and easy.
Getting it dialed in.
You know what I was thinking?
This might sound weird, but for me, when you do a really short one like this, to me, it's
more difficult than if you had to come from back here and go all the way up.
You got some room to kind of twist and turn things.
Right here, it's got to be exact.
Yeah.
It's like you're playing the pennies on the dollar, you know?
Yeah.
Trying to get that precise measurement, and you got to cut out a little short stubby piece
with the slightest angle, and it's not like you want to do a straight cut with a slash
on it.
You want to get a little bit...
Oh, we don't want to do that.
No.
You want to get like the tiniest bit of curve on this, and we're talking like a couple fractions
here.
It's not much.
Well, I'm pretty particular, too.
If you have this tube here, and you're cutting this, and you need a bend, you got to cut
it correct in the bend.
You don't want to like, you know, or...
It's got to be correct.
It's got to be square.
Yeah.
Perpendicular to the surface.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, I can't stand when you like hack something at a real angle, more angle than actual bend
has given you so far, or less.
Either way, it looks bad.
So yeah, that definitely makes these little guys kind of tough.
Yeah, it does.
I mean, like you said, compared to doing something real long, you have a lot of wiggle room,
do how you want.
This, like, you were, you know, talking about doing a straight shot, but then we got a different
plane going.
You got to have this plane here, then you have this plane here, and then this is tilted
up.
And, you know, there's only so much you can work with.
So...
Yeah, it makes it tough.
Yeah, there's a little tiny piece in there now.
I have faith in you.
I hope so.
Yeah.
Fan dropped off Mullet's radiator and fans.
We mounted this stuff last time.
The water pump's on this side, so I think the only option, the dry sump tank's over
here.
Now, we got to make sure it clears the front end, which we could bring it out pretty far.
What we're just talking about is if we shove this thing back too far, it's going to be
hard to get to the lid under here.
So we need to move it out some.
But we have to keep in mind that this dry sump tank needs to work with the radiator
and with the fuel cell without the radiator, right?
Yeah.
So we have two clamps that go around here.
One will probably mount somehow to the chassis.
That way it stays in the same place the whole time.
And then when we pull the radiator out, well, for one, we could probably come off of here
somehow to the other, you know, the other deal there.
Yeah.
But when we pull the radiator out, the fuel cell mount goes in these tubes, so we can
unbolt this, leave this one bolted up, pull this out, and then re-bolt it to the fuel
cell there.
Yeah.
I think that's really our only option, you know?
I think so.
Because we're just running out of room.
If you look at this thing, I mean, there's not much room really anywhere.
And the downpipes, you think, well, we can put it here.
Well, that gets a massive downpipe on both sides.
There's no room back there, not much room up here with the radiator.
If we didn't have a radiator and it was just fuel cell, just race car, it'd be easy.
Definitely not going there.
Just mount it out the hood?
Yeah.
Turbos are out the hood.
I think that's our spot.
Yeah.
I think that's our spot.
So we'll work on mounting it there.
We'll make sure that it clears all the braces for the front end.
Yep.
And it doesn't hit, like, the headlights, because there's headlights too.
Oh, yeah.
So we'll have to worry about that stuff.
But as long as it clears all that and the hoses and fittings will clear the tire, we
should be good there.
Yeah.
All right.
Let's make them.
Let's see what we can do.
Well, we had a little change of plans.
We originally thought we could put the dry sump tank over here since there was no water
pump on this side of the radiator.
But Taylor found out pretty quick, like, that if you watch our videos before, the driver's
side wheel is staggered.
So this wheel is actually two inches in front of that wheel, which means between here and
there, there's two inches less, which made it just enough room to where the dry sump
tank wouldn't fit.
So now we've got to mount it on the passenger side.
And it is extremely close on this side as well, because we've got a water pump, which
pushes it farther out toward the tire also.
20 pounds of stuff in a three-pound bag.
Yeah, it's bad.
But we mentioned yesterday kind of how we were going to do this.
And this side, there's basically not a whole lot of places for this to go, right?
Basically no room.
Basically zero room, and we need room.
So he's got it figured out.
But the cool thing is, it's going to mount back here, and those mounts will stay.
When they get to the track, they'll just pull this radiator out, which will be these two
bolts here.
This whole radiator will come out.
This will just hang on the back two mounts, and then we'll make two more mounts that go
to the fuel cell mount for racing it.
So it's got two mounts on the front, one mount on the back, zero room, but at least we got
a plan now.
Yeah.
Hopefully.
Well, we have a plan.
We just got to see if it works.
Yeah.
All right.
Till it don't.
All right.
We got the back mounts done.
Some titanium, removable mounts.
That actually came out pretty good.
Yeah.
I like the way it came out.
Now, the only thing that scares me a little bit is that you haven't had the front end
on with us here.
I know you set it up there, and you said, eh, it kind of clears.
And then we spent the last four hours mounting it, and now you said we got to put the front
end on to make sure it fits, which is a little scary.
All right.
Well, let's put the front end on.
Hey, it'll work till it don't.
I hope it fits, Taylor.
I hope it fits.
We already got bamboozled on our Lamborghini door operation, so I can't take another one
right now.
Well, the nose is carbon fiber, so if it doesn't-
We'll just clearance it?
We just clearance it, and somebody will fix it.
It'll be.
Put a little bubble in it where the dry sump tank is.
Let's hope that doesn't happen.
Let's see if that thing fits.
It's hitting?
Yeah.
No, I said that's it.
It's on there, kind of.
Oh, it's still got to go back for sure.
Yeah.
Does it hit that tank?
No.
Eh, it's close, but I don't think it's hitting.
That connector might be in the way, Taylor.
Do you see the connector?
Why is it going back?
I don't know.
It's hitting over here.
Something's definitely hitting.
I'm coming in with a screwdriver.
I'm getting the grill out of it.
Oh, I see it.
What's hitting?
Do you see it?
Oh, it's my little aluminum bracket.
It's hitting?
Yeah.
I see it.
Okay.
That's not terrible.
You can fix it?
Yeah.
Right there where-
Well, it's only got to go back a half inch.
Where the bolt is.
Hey, I'm going to pop this grill out.
Yeah, go ahead.
You can fix it?
Right there.
Then you'll be able to see it.
Right there.
See it?
Yeah.
Nothing we can't fix?
No, nothing we can't fix.
Okay.
So it's not the actual tank that's hitting?
No.
Okay.
No.
It's just the bracket.
Let's see.
What's hitting?
Oh, it's hitting this?
Yeah, right there.
Oh, okay, okay.
Oh, yeah.
You can just take some off of this.
Yeah.
I wouldn't take-
Yeah, okay.
Oh, that's easy.
That's easy.
All right.
That's not bad.
That's better than I thought we had going on.
No, that's way better.
That's way better.
Okay.
That came out pretty good.
Yeah.
Tied it to a removable grill.
Look at that.
Get some radiator air in there.
You did all right.
Yeah, that came out good.
It's really good.
All right, we'll go all the way back now.
Oh, it stinks.
Ish.
It's better.
We've got to come back a little more, David.
It's better.
Push it on now.
Let's see what it'll do.
It's still hitting.
Still hitting?
Yeah.
You've got to dig it up in there in the corner a little more.
Still hitting a little bit?
Get a black marker.
Are you going to put a little dot on it?
I see it.
So you know.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Okay.
All right.
It's close.
I think you're ...
That's it?
It's still got to come back a tiny bit, it looks like.
It's close, but ...
I think we're hitting it.
I think ...
No, it'll go.
I think with the Zeus, it'll go.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's good.
All right, and it's not hitting the tank?
No.
Ah.
Okay, so we're good.
No, that was ...
All right.
Perfect.
All right, well, we're finishing up the stuff on mullet, and Jack stands here today to
help with some plumbing.
Check this out.
Check out the door.
Actually, it's not as cool.
It's not.
It would have been way cooler with some vertical doors, for sure.
All right, well, we got the turbos off.
We got everything mounted.
Everything is done.
The only thing that's left is some plumbing.
That's why Jackson's here.
He's going to do some plumbing.
Plumbing, and I brought a trailer to save you the drive, you know?
I do appreciate that.
Get this thing out here, help you boys finish up, and then take it out of your way for you.
That'll definitely help, for sure.
The only difference, really, is the fuel feed's different.
Yeah, fuel feed's got to change.
Tank to pump has got to change, because the pump now, instead of being there, is bolted
to the back of the Fluidworks pump, and then we have to make the oil lines for the oil
tank, and then oil pump to boat.
Yeah, the dry sump stuff's all new, and the fuel pump just moved, so the fuel line's not
going to be terrible.
Then, I think there's a fuel feed line that we already talked about that's on the back
of the engine that we got to figure something out with that.
The oil feed, that's on there, not fuel feed.
It'd be bad if there was fuel going in there.
The guys over at HED made something, and they even said in their video while making it,
we hope this doesn't hit the firewall.
Well, if it doesn't hit the firewall, it hits the mid-plate, so we just got to make it not
touch the mid-plate.
We'll be all right.
Yeah, shouldn't be a big deal.
It should be pretty easy.
Slide this thing forward.
We can get to that back there, and get all the stuff, and it'll go back together pretty
quick.
Yeah, yeah.
For sure.
All right, so here's the fitting we have to address.
If the mid-plate only came up to here, we'd be okay, but our mid-plate's up here, so there's
absolutely no way to get a fitting on that.
Yeah, so let me get a fitting.
So the only thing that concerns me is if we make this longer, James, I'm worried that
this, you know what I mean, getting vibration up here could cause an issue with the threads
down here.
So the thing is, is it's just got to be able to not touch both sides.
Right.
You know what I'm saying?
It's got to...
But this is stainless and thick-walled, so even if we had to go longer to get it to clear,
what if you sleeve it?
Yeah, I mean, the only place I would worry about it is where it's threaded, because it's
thinner there.
Yeah.
But I think it would be okay.
I just wanted to get your opinion on that.
Yeah, I mean, it's not ideal, but I don't think it'll be a problem, meaning that if
you...
Could you look down inside this?
No, is it pretty thick?
Yeah.
It's pretty thick-walled stainless.
Which, when we take it out, we can look.
Yeah.
See, it's as thick as the...
Kind of hard to see without the light, but it's like thick-walled stainless.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
It's real thick.
Okay.
I think that should be all right then.
Yeah.
Okay.
So we'll just cut this, sleeve it, make it longer, because if it was up here, we'd be
fine.
Yeah, I mean, if it was right here, you know, they kicked it away from the motor to clear
it in hopes that it had a standard, traditional style mid-plate, but being that we got a firewall
mid-plate deal, it goes up higher.
Yeah, there's no room.
So, I mean, the mid-plate's really up in here.
Yeah.
All right, well, we'll cut that then and raise it, weld it.
The biggest thing is, is you could probably put that on there and make a line, but if
this ever came loose, there's no way you'd ever be able to tighten it.
Yeah.
So we have to raise that to where it's actually...
Well, this right now, the threads touch.
Oh, okay, yeah.
If you look at the back hole type, you can see on the mid-plate that this was just pressed
against it, so...
So it's definitely got to go quite a bit then.
Yeah.
Okay.
Well, I think what we're going to have to do is just make it longer.
What are you thinking, guy?
I got a converter in there that's going to whoop the old...
Hey, now, they're over here picking on us with Eagle.
I've heard all kinds of stuff that's crazy talk.
I told Cleet, I said, don't even call Cameron, call Troy, because that's the guy you need
to talk to.
He's the driver.
Don't floor it until he needs to.
He's got to keep that thing laid out, 1,000 foot, 1,100 feet.
But you think you guys can outrun us?
No.
Okay, all right, all right.
But that's where Stiff's coming to play, you know?
Okay.
So...
I don't know.
I think you got a good shot with where we're at right now without changing anything.
Sure.
I mean, turn around.
Look.
Don't look good right now.
Did you add that weight I was telling you about?
What we need.
Well, what's the...
Where are the Stiffs?
1,000 foot.
We can only run a 6'6".
We're in a drag race.
What?
No.
Nobody said that.
We get a back tire to clear and to hit.
I didn't hear anything about that.
No, nothing.
Oh, you weren't there for that.
How was it then?
Nothing at all.
Yeah, they locked in a race with my car without me being there.
Nope.
Don't talk to your driver.
It's okay.
Look.
We got something on the way.
We can just kick a man wide down.
I mean, it's already in the car.
We can't.
We got...
But there's other stuff coming.
Is there?
Yeah.
Oh, that's right.
There is.
That's right.
Right?
Uh-huh.
78.
Here we go.
We've been 4 30s.
20s?
30s?
Once.
Now, we just took a lockabout.
But now, you got more horsepower.
We don't know that.
It don't run.
But we just took a lockabout.
Uh-huh.
I'm going to add the 9,700 pounds back to this thing because he built it too light.
You hear this?
You were there when we had to put all that weight in the car.
No, that's true.
There's a lot of weight.
You haven't fed at all.
That's...
You're not wrong.
Yeah.
It does have to be heavy.
That's got to go back in.
So, are you saying the weight's a disadvantage?
The weight-to-horsepower ratio is a disadvantage.
So, how about if you guys...
It's lighter with more power.
So, how about if you guys will just do a grudge race?
You weigh what we weigh, and we'll race at 8.
Okay.
Let me get one 3-inch hole saw.
One 3-inch hole saw.
Yeah.
We'll just make a little boost leak.
Not a little power leak.
A little...
A 3-inch hole.
A little boost leak.
That ProCharger you got is this big.
You think it's going to care?
I don't know.
Yeah.
It ain't going to care at all.
I don't know.
I need two holes.
Two holes.
I don't know.
I think the 1,000 foot's going to make it interesting.
Yeah.
I think it's going to make it interesting.
We'll see.
Yeah.
Hopefully, my driver is all in his game.
That's what he's going to have to be, yeah.
He's got to be.
If he's not, I'll go home.
You'll go.
You don't even want to be there to watch it.
Are you going to see me in the background changing shirts and step behind you?
One more modification we do have to make is we have to mill out this motor plate because
the oil pump pivots and swivels up the Titan, and we don't have enough swivelage.
Yeah.
Well, we got a legend on the thing he's going to...
We got Danny over here.
Danny's been working on these things since they had a leather belt up there and you had
to have a guy sitting on a bicycle over next to him to spin it.
Was he the pedal guy or was he the...
No.
No, he's always been the operator, but he had a good pedal guy he worked with back in
the 1905s.
Damn, that's older than my dad.
I'm just kidding.
Give me a break.
No, he is really good with his stuff, though.
He's really good.
He is the guy for this, for sure.
Yeah, he's old.
If he had more time, he'd have his bluing out, for sure.
He's got some bluing?
Oh, he gets serious with it.
First time I brought that in here, he looked at me like I was nuts.
It works?
No, it does work good.
It does work good.
For this, it's not that critical.
I don't have to do that.
Not that critical.
If it had to be within five-tenths of a thou, he'd have his bluing out.
If you're trying to line up gold holes on a block, no, that's critical.
For sure.
Not critical.
Danny did a good job notching out that clearance for the oil pump.
Should be good there.
We'll go with Taylor.
Correct trigger back on?
What did Taylor...
Oh, let's see.
I put it in.
Kyle welded it.
He put it...
Kyle welded it?
Kyle welded it.
Oh, we're good now.
It's getting on there now.
Oh, look at that.
Oh, we're good now.
Look at this.
Oh, yeah.
Up and above that there.
All right.
So, we're good there.
What are you working on over here, Jax?
Well, you see the turbo oil feed used to go right there.
Right there doesn't get oiled.
Oh.
So, now I got to move it back there.
Back to the back.
I didn't see that.
Yeah.
Okay.
So, this here is no longer long.
Not going to work?
Yeah.
So, we do have some extra lines we didn't know about.
Just one.
Ah, it's not bad.
Four though.
You should have that.
It's not bad.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
We got that.
Sure.
Maybe more.
Maybe more?
Maybe more.
What do you mean, maybe more?
Oh, yeah.
Well, so it's got...
Oh, here we go.
...the block.
Apparently...
Taylor was confused because it doesn't take up the oil filter block like it was open to
the motor.
And then he was like, oh, it's open to there.
But plug it.
It's the pipe here.
Okay.
All right.
So, that's just two more fits.
That's it.
That's not a big deal.
Not a big deal.
We're going to get it.
We should have some lines.
Yeah.
All right.
Well, Jack, Stan, and Taylor got a bunch of lines done on the oil pump, and we have to
mount this.
We put the turbos back on, made sure we have room, and Danny's drilling, tapping the motor
plate now.
I wanted to point this out.
Jack, Stan, did say earlier that the oil filter we had on the two cars is not going to be
happy.
Not ideal, yeah.
We need a remote deal.
Now, this is the first time I've seen a Fluworks remote oil filter.
I bet.
It's pretty nice.
This is really nice.
Yeah.
I don't know how much these are, but if there's room in what used to be a $15,000 budget,
I'd like to get one of these.
Yeah, we'll probably get one.
How much are these units, Jack, Stan?
Scratch and damp.
You ain't got budget.
That's unfortunate.
You talking to my accountant?
Accountant to accountant, they talked.
Yeah.
And they said no?
It's not good.
It ain't good.
Well, for now, we'll just pretend like we have one of these, but we may just have to
go over budget, because I think we need one.
Yeah.
I mean, I'd rather have a...
How do you say it?
I'd rather it not starve for oil or suck the filter out.
I would, too.
It isn't.
That thing you got on there is pretty rough.
Yeah.
It's about an inch and a half deep.
Little mini guy.
Little tiny little filter.
Yeah.
We're going to get this one mounted.
We got the turbo on, all the up pipes back on.
Most of the lines made, there will be some lines to this we got to run.
It looks nice, though.
That's nice.
We got to run these lines.
We had to do a separate...
We had to do a bigger fitting to the dry sump pump, you can see.
Kyle had to put a 16 on the bottom and had a number 12, so we just changed that stuff
out.
We're getting closer, closer and closer.
It's a multiple dump.
Yep.
Jameson underneath there putting some OT in, bud.
Yeah, she was almost ready to plump.
Now we're ready to plump.
Halfway done.
Halfway, huh?
Oh, they're about finishing up now.
I got to say, I'm more excited about Mullet winning than ever, because Cletus did say
if Mullet wins FL2K, we can put Lambo doors on it.
He'll let us put the Lambo doors on it.
We don't have to do it without asking.
He said he'll let us do it if he wins FL2K, so I'm pulling hard for him.
Yeah.
At the end of the day, he's still getting blessed.
Yeah, either way.
Either way, he's still going to get blessed.
Well, it's about 8 o'clock at night, and we plumbed everything we could possibly plumb.
We did, however, run out of some lines for a remote wool filter.
We should have some lines.
And I think that's about the only thing left to plumb, right?
Yeah, we ran out of some lines and ran into an interference with that pan.
Yeah, it's got a big wool pan on it.
The only thing about big blocks and oil pans, it's got what they call a split pan on it
where they take a pan, they cut the bottom off, they weld a rail to it, and then bolt the pan back together
so you can service the motor without pulling the whole oil pan.
Great for when you've got to work on it.
Not ideal when you've got to plumb and dry.
So we've got some pan interference there for one hose, and then we ran out of 12 AN.
So, we're close, but not quite there.
Not quite there.
But we'll get there.
It's going to be there.
We're going to order the right hose we need, take it back to our shop,
and at our shop, I have some Thragola hose.
I'll put that on there temporarily.
We'll be able to get the car rolling.
By like Tuesday, Wednesday, we'll have the right hose.
I'll just mimic and remake those hoses out of the proper hose we need for the car.
But at least now, back at our shop, go ahead and get it restaurated mechanically there,
get some wiring buttoned up, and get the key.
Yeah, it's close.
It's close.
I can't wait to see what this thing can do with this new engine.
I'm excited to see it done.
There was a little bit more that we had to do than we thought.
It's close, though.
Yeah, we're close.
We're close.
About 88% there.
88?
How'd you come up with that number?
That's a good number.
That's about how fast I'm going to get home.
88 miles an hour?
Yeah.
All right.
Well, that's going to do it.
Mullet is out of here, and we will be racing Mullet with Eagle in about a week.
Thursday or Friday night, FL2K.
At night.
Dark.
Under the lights.
Mullet and Eagle.
That's going to be a cool race to see, and hopefully we can win.
I don't know.
Jackson has probably got some nitrous on his unit once he gets back or something.
I can tell you something, bud.
If you don't take that parts-charged engine in front of this thing, I'd sell it.
Sell it.
Just get rid of it.
All right.
So however the race pans out, I just know that if you're not in front...
We don't even need it.
For sale.
All right.
Deal.
For sale.
$600,000.
All right.
Well, Mullet's out of here, and hopefully we can see a race next week.
All right.
Well, that's going to do it for today's video.
