**Building a High-Performance Engine: A Deep Dive into the Process**

A big Mishimoto wheel cooler in the back right? Any other radiator? It's a rear-mounted radiator, obviously, since we wanted to bring the exhaust in the front and have the x-pipe and have it come out the sides to keep the sound and the length of exhaust as similar as we could to this engine in its actual configuration. We've got a big Mishimoto Moto Circle Track radiator, this is the one you can buy right off the website. This is the single pass, you know, big 10-inch line feeding and returning.

Right now, Buddy is actually working on the ducting. And I have a nice side plate coming in, which it's off the top. We've got a nice carbon piece, it sure looks a bit like a mohawk, and it's a nice scoop that sucks all the air in from the top, and it's gonna come down into a hole in the back here that they trimmed out, and feed right into the radiator. So, that's how we're gonna get our airflow.

We also have two very high-flow Mishimoto 12-inch race fans. They pull like 2,800 CFM's apiece, so that should be plenty to keep this thing nice and chilly. Also, since it's not turbocharged, we'll have to deal with all that extra heat that the turbo generates. So, yeah, it should be good.

Obviously, we don't know until everything is working. We've got a 10-gallon fuel cell or running VP MS-109 fuel on this engine. This is the Optima battery and aside here, we're just keeping it charged up. Beach Works supplied the fuel pump, the fuel filter, fuel pressure regulator, and gauge with a Mishimoto oil cooler setup right here right behind the radiator.

All the vibrant lines and fittings running back and forth, front to front, and the back things ready to rock. Man, are we ready? We got oil all right, we got a pro-car, that's true. So, I'm going to do a rain dance, all right, let me get on that text real quick with John Reid just to make sure everything's ready to rock them inside and let's do this.

All right, I'm just gonna prime it for some oil pressure, and then we get over the wait for the go-ahead from John Reid. So, yeah, it's all about making sure everything is perfect before we start.

We've got a Mo-Tek PDM 15 keypad that's where we run the pro-car as well. Just waiting for John to give us the green light. All right, you guys ready? Everybody clear up there? All right, John says we're good. Alright, sit this one out and go, guys like... Okay, all right. It's good, a start to the night for sure.

All right, so I guess we gotta make our dyno appointment, so we've got a rock solid plan in place. Make sure there are no leaks, gotta bleed the coolant, we saw another 45-minute hour session to finish on this thing. Big thanks to Gum Out Tonal Media Honey Motorsports and the entire crew here, guys who really built this car. I just had to do a lot of the legwork on parts and order and stuff, so it's mainly these guys that did all the heavy lifting, and came out absolutely phenomenal.

So, hats off to these guys, couldn't do it without you know thanks to all of our partners involved 1552 Viper Performance, BC Racing, Optima, and everybody that just you know, motek, John Reid, Unicorn Garages. There's so many people involved in making this dream a reality that beside myself.

So, yeah, we'll show you guys some videos hopefully really soon. This thing hopefully be filming on Sunday with GoPro and have some stuff ready to go at SEMA. Fingers crossed the dyno go as well, and this thing to be ready to rock so thank you for tuning in, we'll see you soon.

WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: ensup guys Ryan Tuerck here we are honey motors for it's counting down the seconds of other things gonna fire up fingers crossed everybody's jamming they're finishing the oil tank we're gonna put some fresh oil in it we got John read it remotely tuning on the Motec m150 see you yes he is trying to assure me that everything's gonna be okay so I'm hoping this new fires up for the first time the first try so yeah we got everybody bored right now trying to hammer this thing now we got we got honey go on the shop over there pops Erich Mielke fab over here finishing up the exhaust we got buddy finishing up a lot of the ducting for the rape-murder radiator please we got some we got some fresh helmets from steel OEMs motorsports to allow some for some passenger ride alongs in the future some apologize for technical difficulties yeah sorry about the technical issues we just had where I was talking for like 15 minutes and we don't even know it wasn't live or something so I think we're good now hopefully it's working so let me take you guys up for a walk around the car show you where we're at but we still have to do and show you the fresh new wheels fresh new wheels from 1552 is amazing the first kind these are the first of the pentathlete pieces at 1552 gave us to to debut on this car so super spots these are the rears a lot more dish some concave on the face little stretch on the 10625 the car is threes so this thing's are hopefully gonna fire up here in a few minutes time to do before I go with the SEMA so as long as it fires up we'll have John Reed kind of run through all the data and make sure that we can hopefully hit the dyno tonight and then we still have all the interior work to do we have an HD K dashboard coming that we my mom get that fitted then we can fit all the mo tech software we've got a honey motorsports kick panel for the floor pedals come in just a lot of things there's just all the last-minute stuff that still has to be done to the chassis and in the car to you know make it drivable and and ready to burn some tires man you can't tell him a little nervous still really nervous is a culmination of many months of everybody's hard work and yeah this is it man so it's coming it's really really close comes back up the Optima battery charging this thing's been things but just ignition on having John Reed kind of run through all the data checking all the parameters and making sure that I'm not a tuner but making sure it all checks out and it's gonna be ready to fire so community questions yeah what's up with questions it what's everybody everybody want to know nothing yet let's see if they got me so we still got some trimming to do and a front bumper stuff but we want to leave it off just to be able to show you guys this amazing super amazing exhaust and header set up Sonic driving homes that they're dealing with right now and installing for the tank this thing is close man really really close so we so we have the exhaust go into the front because we wanted to keep it the same length as it would have been in a you know factory for our apt or not GT sorry factory Ferrari four five eight just so we could you know hopefully guarantee ourselves more of that that same tone and same sound from the from the exhaust that those have and they sound incredible so I'm sure this thing's gonna light up and even sound amazing for sure so fab you've done an incredible job and he's done plenty of header and exhaust work in the past and he said it's kind of a brainchild of many other builds and stuff and he did a really phenomenal job on trying to make the headers when you're building the headers you have to keep in mind on what cylinders are firing at what time and there's different lengths that you need to make those cylinders to be able to all kind of come together and make a certain a certain sound or sort of tone that you're looking for and with having to do that a lot of times the manifolds won't look very well and look the same so it won't you know they won't look like twins so I think he did a really killer job on the aesthetic part of that build and yeah I mean that's one of the coolest things of this car for sure besides the engine Derrick truck wants to know what the intake setup is Wade cannot see the intake set up dude really not alright listen this will actually be the best time to show you guys how this exact setup work so since we didn't want these model bodies sticking straight out of the hood and looking like crap we decided to take the harder more extensive longer route to mount the engine this way and have the intakes go through the firewall we're gonna have a custom piece of glass cut who obviously accommodate the fabrication of honey motorsports do it right here and this is actually if you come come around here a little bit be a little hard to see maybe try to get a light on it this piece right here this box is the actual intake for the for the for the engine so but we don't have hooked up yet there's outlets this outlets coming actually from each side of this intake box and we don't the fenders on right now but they'll be coming through the side here this vibrant coupler will hook up to the fender and it's actually gonna suck in from there on each side of the car so that's that's why we did that because it's gonna look a heck of a lot better aesthetically and it's gonna you know sound good for something where the fenders are so this is a custom honey Motorsports fender painted by 2/m 2/m auto works here in San Diego area so it has these really cool really cool movers in it that actually feed air to the intake hole this is where the intake is gonna suck from and I think the paint up paint came up this is the coolest red I've ever seen on a car anyway yeah we're not sure we'll see what happens when we hit the dyno hopefully hopefully all 550 or 500 wheel horsepower are gonna be available to this this thing once John Reid is finished tuning it I know there's a butterfly scenario in amok in the manifold that we don't have hooked up so that's gonna potentially rob us of a little bit of horsepower that was something that we could not get enough information on in time to go to the dyno and get everything tuned so it's just one of those last-minute deals that is too involved to hook up with the amount of time that we had to finish this thing so that'll be something that's gonna be done after SEMA and then it'll be 100% another question is what are you making this car for so making this car for fun we're making this car for fun it's uh you know it's something that is so kind of exotic and something that has than done before my you know my grand idea was a always their dream as always do a Formula one engine in a streetcar or just have fun Formula one engine there's something in general and so this is like definitely the next best thing budget wise this is obviously a lot more affordable than that scenario and it's a high-revving 4.6 liter v8 that sounds absolutely incredible flat plane crank and makes enough power to have a blast so I mean why not why not one of my buddies up in Northern California had a crash Italia four five eight engine and I mean I think it was like a 260 thousand dollar car and they wiped out the whole front end obviously the drivetrain was good the engine was good so we yanked the engine out of that thing brought it back to the shop it was insane so we checked the engine over everything was really really good and man hopefully we fire this thing up and turf lights a sucker off in the exhaust material ah so yeah question for Eric we rotted the exhausts material that was used was 304 stainless steel 304 stainless steel from vibrant performance they supplied all the materials for the headers and exhaust and a lot of the other components and materials that had to do with this build we also took factory headers or whatever you want to call it manifolds and with the time frame we had basically I had to cut him up in machine all of a mission-related stuff and make them suitable for an aftermarket header like this that material is likely 409 of high-carbon there's any SoCal wander wants to know how bad or good I'm gonna feel that you're gonna feel when you quote unquote turf yeah I don't know I guess it depends on how bad are good I turn it you know if I Turk it and just burn off a bunch of hand coats and it's a killer day we get some awesome footage then good day but it's something bad happens it's usually my lockers this black cloud that always hangs over my head sometimes so in that sense it's gonna feel pretty bad so fingers crossed everything works out I know everybody's been triple checking and making sure everything's a thousand percent so we should hopefully be good so four so Ferrari so so many wants to know if I'm worried about Ferrari taking away I don't think that's possible I don't know what the guidelines are what the legal legal situation is there but I know it's more kind of associated with the car the Ferrari chassis and engine and the whole shebang not just the engine so this engine was purchased by somebody who had crashed their car and these cars get parted out all the time it crashed all the time so and then get bought out you know from insurance you can go out there and you know buy one of these for five eighths that the motor came out of wrecked and you know having the title rebuilt from a salvage status so I'm not worried about it at all I mean we own the engine outright we have a proof of purchase you know the guy who actually sold it to us in the owner of the car that it came out of so I don't see that being an issue at all I think that's a no no I think that's just kind of some black magic stuff that everybody is overlooking or thinking thinking too deep into so Travis was like a weight distribution it actually this car is actually gonna be really good or not any worse than our pro car the 2jz this engine is full aluminum block aluminum everything it's as light as they could make it without using some weight more insane materials so the weight is actually going to be very close or less than what our tjz ways with you know a big carry turbocharger on it and an intercooler and all the other components that make our car what it does so I'm pretty sure the weight distribution is gonna be right around the same and to be honest for a drift car we're not super worried about it you know this thing isn't for full-on competition for for milady so it's gonna sound killer and it's gonna burn off from the crap out of some tire so that's what we're looking for people want to know a little bit more about the wheels or maybe you could just go over the wheel again alright so the heels these are the first of the 1552 three-piece pentas they have a lot of these in a one-piece design which looks killer as well so they hooked it up with getting these cut just in time I mean everything is coming down typical SEMA schedule everything happens last-minute with the build so these are 18 nine up front I'm sorry I think it's negative three offset is what we weren't with and then the weirdest which are right here these are in 1810 negative 22 nice concave face nice lip wanting to keep the brushed finish this is a this is I kind of the I guess for throwback Ferrari style with the gold center and a little you know brushed our polished lip or whatever and we got some Hankook rs3 is running 265 s on it a little stretch looking good be able to run this thing a little lower we're not starting it just yet so yeah we're just getting impatient so yeah yeah the guys are working as fast as they possibly can right now the the oil tank has been a little bit of an issue it needed some ventilation and we didn't have enough so they actually just spent the last two hours reef ABing the entire thing so it's actually softer them because through hours time it's pretty insane and they're just trying to get everything buttoned up we cut some Samman lines and get everything fitted real quick so they're doing we're going as fast as we can and making sure it's 100% before we fire this thing off because we don't want to miss any steps and have any happen so we should be good just bear with us here while the guys are jamming and get this thing sorted I figure this thing started with the rest of the night looks like so yeah for us as long as this thing gets started everything checks out you know we need to bleed the coolant system need to make sure John Reed does all of his normal colors I guess beginning tuning scenarios get the baseline set for the timing and air fuel ratio make sure that's all good and then we're going to bleed the brakes bleed the clutch get the wheels on and drop it on the ground and bring this thing to the dyno and then depending on how long that takes John said that as long as the baseline is good we should have maybe an hour to on dyno get this thing fully fully tuned on there and then we'll come back and we'll start jamming on the interior the glass and all the windows going tomorrow and the interior is really the biggest thing right now that needs to get squared away so beyond that I mean probably who know 6:00 a.m. until this thing spinning cases so this is pretty early on for us even though it's been a long day already for everybody so yeah everybody's trying to do all right trying to work extra fast right now so please bear with us yeah so that the transmission is from Fortin it's actually what how do you local down here San Diego they make a lot of trophy truck transmissions it's a sequential five-speed it's gonna have flat shift on it so I'll be able to just hold my foot on the floor and just grab some gears and burn some tires beyond that we get the neighbors performance handbrake stock rear ends gearing is gonna be pretty solid on this thing we don't know what the power band is gonna look like yet obviously it's pretty peaky but it should have plenty of power to just for the gearing for what we want so transmission transmission can be cool it's something that I run a hollinger in a pro car which is a six-speed and it's a transmission from Australia that run used to run those in a lot of v8 supercars so this one is a little bit new to me being for trophy truck it's actually has an offset output shaft in the rear so that you can make it all-wheel drive or it has that kind of kind of scenario where if you wanted to you could buy the extra parts and make it all wheel drive in the front so who knows maybe we'll make this thing all-wheel drive it probably so yeah we're getting really close you still need to you know once the interior and everything gets finished off delivery goes on it put this thing on the alignment rack get the caster camber toe everything sorted out and then this thing is will be pretty much ready to rock we'll be able to take it to the track and film some videos so we're hoping to actually do that on Sunday before we go too soon it's a fired-up yeah fired up alright alright yep why don't you talk about the brakes again so John yeah yeah so it's really cool that John Reid is actually working remotely right now he's he's at home probably with his family hanging out maybe he's eating dinner at the dinner table waiting for this all these guys that sorted out here but basically he is just he just remotely logged into this computer and was you know obviously this computer's logged on to the ECU so he's able to do basically take control of this computer up in Oregon and tune it from afar and based on you know all of the insane amount of data that the motek offers and all the different sensors and stuff that we have installed any engine he's able to just look at everything and tune this thing from a distance which is free insanely John's the main tuner on my on the pro car as well and he works really really nameless performance and John up there to to make sure that things dialed on all the FD weekends when he's not available to actually come to the track he's he's very well-rounded in tuning a car from from wherever he's actually tuning a Lamborghini today in Texas while he was working on the map for our car so it was a good time to kind of refresh some people that have just joined us kind of tell us where we're at what we're doing and the plan in a couple minutes all right so yeah for everybody that's new and joining us we are just finishing the guys are finishing up an oil tank right now getting the last fittings and line ran and roast some fresh oil in it and we will be ready to crank this thing over Turk where in the world are we at so we are in San Diego California and honey Motorsports where this bar has been the entire time this is where it's been you know started from scratch the chassis was actually purchased from somebody in SoCal and then again here - honey motorsports and he you know the whole team and crew tore it down and started getting into it put the roll cage in it and then just started you know started from there I did all the chassis prepping to work up the engine mounts fabricate and make sure the engine and everything was getting clear and then I went to two M Auto Works to get painted at that time they did a lot of the cosmetic work to the fenders the louvers and the inlet they made me into just a lot of a lot of components on this car obviously there's a lot involved in putting an engine like this and they in a different chassis and everything's gonna be custom on it really one-off as well as the software to even tune this thing so it's everything has been a bit of a process but a really cool one because this is the culmination right now I mean this is a couple of minutes away from getting this thing cranked over and see if it fires up how many quarts were pointing this day ten courts 11 course things taking 11 courts you got a big old oil tank on there a big Mishimoto wheel cooler in the back right any other radiator yeah so it's a rear mounted radiator obviously since we wanted to since we wanted to bring the exhaust in the front and have the x-pipe and have it come out the sides to keep the sound and the length of exhaust as similar as we could to the this engine in its actual so we've got a big mission moto circle track radiator this is the one once you can buy right off the website this is the single pass you know big - 10 and line feeding and returning where buddy right now is actually working on the ducting so there's and I have a nice side plate coming in and then it's off the top we have a nice carbon piece I sure looks a bit like a mohawk and it's it's a nice scoop that sucks all the air in from from the top and it's gonna come come down in a hole in the back here that they trimmed out and feed right into the radiator so that's how we're gonna get our airflow we also have two very high flow Mishimoto 12 inch race fans as they pull like 2,800 CFM's apiece so that should be plenty to keep this thing nice and chilly also since it's not turbo we'll have to deal with all that extra heat that the turbo generates so yeah it should be good obviously we don't know until everything is it is working fuel save 10 gallon fuel cell or running vp ms 109 fuel on the planet this is the we have the Optima battery and aside here we're just keeping it charged up Beach works supplied the fuel pump the fuel filter fuel pressure regulator gauge with a Mishimoto oil cooler setup right here right behind the radiator all the vibrant line and fittings running back and forth front front the back things ready to rock man ready are we we got oil all right we got a private we got a pregnant that's true so I'm going to do a rain dance all right let me get on that text real quick with John Reid just to make sure everything's ready to rock them inside and let's do this all right I'm just gonna prime it for some oil pressure and then we get over the wait for the go-ahead from John Reid so yeah it's the future here so this is the mo tech PDM 15 keypad that's where we run the pro car as well just waiting for John all right all right you guys ready everybody clear make sure has some oil pressure everybody can you clear up there all right John says we're good all right so sit this we go guys like Oh okay all right John is sort of something I'm real quick all right he's in take this up good after all right whose no leaks near operating temperature John Reid still going through makes on the normal nobody's freaking out at the mall warms up mother Fred Roggin issue rants have to be at 80 degrees a little but after at least giving some rats cool example be fine by that Oh what sounds awesome that's it good start to the night for sure all right so I got we gotta make our dyno appointment so we got a rock make sure there's no leaks we gotta bleed the coolant we saw another 45 whatever million hours to finish on this thing so thank you guys everybody for tuning in and bearing with us on a couple technical difficulties big thanks to gum out tonal media honey motorsports the entire crew here the guys that really built this car I just had to do a lot of the legwork on parts and order and stuff so it's mainly these guys that did did all the heavy lifting and came out absolutely phenomenal so hats off to these guys couldn't do it you know thanks to all of the partners involved 1552 viper performance BC Racing Optima and everybody that just you know motek john reid unicorn garages there's so many people involved in making this dream a reality that beside myself so yeah it's well we'll show you guys some videos hopefully really soon this thing hopefully be filming on Sunday with GoPro and have some stuff ready to go at SEMA so fingers crossed the dyno go as well and this thing to be ready to rock so thank you for tuning in we'll see you soonsup guys Ryan Tuerck here we are honey motors for it's counting down the seconds of other things gonna fire up fingers crossed everybody's jamming they're finishing the oil tank we're gonna put some fresh oil in it we got John read it remotely tuning on the Motec m150 see you yes he is trying to assure me that everything's gonna be okay so I'm hoping this new fires up for the first time the first try so yeah we got everybody bored right now trying to hammer this thing now we got we got honey go on the shop over there pops Erich Mielke fab over here finishing up the exhaust we got buddy finishing up a lot of the ducting for the rape-murder radiator please we got some we got some fresh helmets from steel OEMs motorsports to allow some for some passenger ride alongs in the future some apologize for technical difficulties yeah sorry about the technical issues we just had where I was talking for like 15 minutes and we don't even know it wasn't live or something so I think we're good now hopefully it's working so let me take you guys up for a walk around the car show you where we're at but we still have to do and show you the fresh new wheels fresh new wheels from 1552 is amazing the first kind these are the first of the pentathlete pieces at 1552 gave us to to debut on this car so super spots these are the rears a lot more dish some concave on the face little stretch on the 10625 the car is threes so this thing's are hopefully gonna fire up here in a few minutes time to do before I go with the SEMA so as long as it fires up we'll have John Reed kind of run through all the data and make sure that we can hopefully hit the dyno tonight and then we still have all the interior work to do we have an HD K dashboard coming that we my mom get that fitted then we can fit all the mo tech software we've got a honey motorsports kick panel for the floor pedals come in just a lot of things there's just all the last-minute stuff that still has to be done to the chassis and in the car to you know make it drivable and and ready to burn some tires man you can't tell him a little nervous still really nervous is a culmination of many months of everybody's hard work and yeah this is it man so it's coming it's really really close comes back up the Optima battery charging this thing's been things but just ignition on having John Reed kind of run through all the data checking all the parameters and making sure that I'm not a tuner but making sure it all checks out and it's gonna be ready to fire so community questions yeah what's up with questions it what's everybody everybody want to know nothing yet let's see if they got me so we still got some trimming to do and a front bumper stuff but we want to leave it off just to be able to show you guys this amazing super amazing exhaust and header set up Sonic driving homes that they're dealing with right now and installing for the tank this thing is close man really really close so we so we have the exhaust go into the front because we wanted to keep it the same length as it would have been in a you know factory for our apt or not GT sorry factory Ferrari four five eight just so we could you know hopefully guarantee ourselves more of that that same tone and same sound from the from the exhaust that those have and they sound incredible so I'm sure this thing's gonna light up and even sound amazing for sure so fab you've done an incredible job and he's done plenty of header and exhaust work in the past and he said it's kind of a brainchild of many other builds and stuff and he did a really phenomenal job on trying to make the headers when you're building the headers you have to keep in mind on what cylinders are firing at what time and there's different lengths that you need to make those cylinders to be able to all kind of come together and make a certain a certain sound or sort of tone that you're looking for and with having to do that a lot of times the manifolds won't look very well and look the same so it won't you know they won't look like twins so I think he did a really killer job on the aesthetic part of that build and yeah I mean that's one of the coolest things of this car for sure besides the engine Derrick truck wants to know what the intake setup is Wade cannot see the intake set up dude really not alright listen this will actually be the best time to show you guys how this exact setup work so since we didn't want these model bodies sticking straight out of the hood and looking like crap we decided to take the harder more extensive longer route to mount the engine this way and have the intakes go through the firewall we're gonna have a custom piece of glass cut who obviously accommodate the fabrication of honey motorsports do it right here and this is actually if you come come around here a little bit be a little hard to see maybe try to get a light on it this piece right here this box is the actual intake for the for the for the engine so but we don't have hooked up yet there's outlets this outlets coming actually from each side of this intake box and we don't the fenders on right now but they'll be coming through the side here this vibrant coupler will hook up to the fender and it's actually gonna suck in from there on each side of the car so that's that's why we did that because it's gonna look a heck of a lot better aesthetically and it's gonna you know sound good for something where the fenders are so this is a custom honey Motorsports fender painted by 2/m 2/m auto works here in San Diego area so it has these really cool really cool movers in it that actually feed air to the intake hole this is where the intake is gonna suck from and I think the paint up paint came up this is the coolest red I've ever seen on a car anyway yeah we're not sure we'll see what happens when we hit the dyno hopefully hopefully all 550 or 500 wheel horsepower are gonna be available to this this thing once John Reid is finished tuning it I know there's a butterfly scenario in amok in the manifold that we don't have hooked up so that's gonna potentially rob us of a little bit of horsepower that was something that we could not get enough information on in time to go to the dyno and get everything tuned so it's just one of those last-minute deals that is too involved to hook up with the amount of time that we had to finish this thing so that'll be something that's gonna be done after SEMA and then it'll be 100% another question is what are you making this car for so making this car for fun we're making this car for fun it's uh you know it's something that is so kind of exotic and something that has than done before my you know my grand idea was a always their dream as always do a Formula one engine in a streetcar or just have fun Formula one engine there's something in general and so this is like definitely the next best thing budget wise this is obviously a lot more affordable than that scenario and it's a high-revving 4.6 liter v8 that sounds absolutely incredible flat plane crank and makes enough power to have a blast so I mean why not why not one of my buddies up in Northern California had a crash Italia four five eight engine and I mean I think it was like a 260 thousand dollar car and they wiped out the whole front end obviously the drivetrain was good the engine was good so we yanked the engine out of that thing brought it back to the shop it was insane so we checked the engine over everything was really really good and man hopefully we fire this thing up and turf lights a sucker off in the exhaust material ah so yeah question for Eric we rotted the exhausts material that was used was 304 stainless steel 304 stainless steel from vibrant performance they supplied all the materials for the headers and exhaust and a lot of the other components and materials that had to do with this build we also took factory headers or whatever you want to call it manifolds and with the time frame we had basically I had to cut him up in machine all of a mission-related stuff and make them suitable for an aftermarket header like this that material is likely 409 of high-carbon there's any SoCal wander wants to know how bad or good I'm gonna feel that you're gonna feel when you quote unquote turf yeah I don't know I guess it depends on how bad are good I turn it you know if I Turk it and just burn off a bunch of hand coats and it's a killer day we get some awesome footage then good day but it's something bad happens it's usually my lockers this black cloud that always hangs over my head sometimes so in that sense it's gonna feel pretty bad so fingers crossed everything works out I know everybody's been triple checking and making sure everything's a thousand percent so we should hopefully be good so four so Ferrari so so many wants to know if I'm worried about Ferrari taking away I don't think that's possible I don't know what the guidelines are what the legal legal situation is there but I know it's more kind of associated with the car the Ferrari chassis and engine and the whole shebang not just the engine so this engine was purchased by somebody who had crashed their car and these cars get parted out all the time it crashed all the time so and then get bought out you know from insurance you can go out there and you know buy one of these for five eighths that the motor came out of wrecked and you know having the title rebuilt from a salvage status so I'm not worried about it at all I mean we own the engine outright we have a proof of purchase you know the guy who actually sold it to us in the owner of the car that it came out of so I don't see that being an issue at all I think that's a no no I think that's just kind of some black magic stuff that everybody is overlooking or thinking thinking too deep into so Travis was like a weight distribution it actually this car is actually gonna be really good or not any worse than our pro car the 2jz this engine is full aluminum block aluminum everything it's as light as they could make it without using some weight more insane materials so the weight is actually going to be very close or less than what our tjz ways with you know a big carry turbocharger on it and an intercooler and all the other components that make our car what it does so I'm pretty sure the weight distribution is gonna be right around the same and to be honest for a drift car we're not super worried about it you know this thing isn't for full-on competition for for milady so it's gonna sound killer and it's gonna burn off from the crap out of some tire so that's what we're looking for people want to know a little bit more about the wheels or maybe you could just go over the wheel again alright so the heels these are the first of the 1552 three-piece pentas they have a lot of these in a one-piece design which looks killer as well so they hooked it up with getting these cut just in time I mean everything is coming down typical SEMA schedule everything happens last-minute with the build so these are 18 nine up front I'm sorry I think it's negative three offset is what we weren't with and then the weirdest which are right here these are in 1810 negative 22 nice concave face nice lip wanting to keep the brushed finish this is a this is I kind of the I guess for throwback Ferrari style with the gold center and a little you know brushed our polished lip or whatever and we got some Hankook rs3 is running 265 s on it a little stretch looking good be able to run this thing a little lower we're not starting it just yet so yeah we're just getting impatient so yeah yeah the guys are working as fast as they possibly can right now the the oil tank has been a little bit of an issue it needed some ventilation and we didn't have enough so they actually just spent the last two hours reef ABing the entire thing so it's actually softer them because through hours time it's pretty insane and they're just trying to get everything buttoned up we cut some Samman lines and get everything fitted real quick so they're doing we're going as fast as we can and making sure it's 100% before we fire this thing off because we don't want to miss any steps and have any happen so we should be good just bear with us here while the guys are jamming and get this thing sorted I figure this thing started with the rest of the night looks like so yeah for us as long as this thing gets started everything checks out you know we need to bleed the coolant system need to make sure John Reed does all of his normal colors I guess beginning tuning scenarios get the baseline set for the timing and air fuel ratio make sure that's all good and then we're going to bleed the brakes bleed the clutch get the wheels on and drop it on the ground and bring this thing to the dyno and then depending on how long that takes John said that as long as the baseline is good we should have maybe an hour to on dyno get this thing fully fully tuned on there and then we'll come back and we'll start jamming on the interior the glass and all the windows going tomorrow and the interior is really the biggest thing right now that needs to get squared away so beyond that I mean probably who know 6:00 a.m. until this thing spinning cases so this is pretty early on for us even though it's been a long day already for everybody so yeah everybody's trying to do all right trying to work extra fast right now so please bear with us yeah so that the transmission is from Fortin it's actually what how do you local down here San Diego they make a lot of trophy truck transmissions it's a sequential five-speed it's gonna have flat shift on it so I'll be able to just hold my foot on the floor and just grab some gears and burn some tires beyond that we get the neighbors performance handbrake stock rear ends gearing is gonna be pretty solid on this thing we don't know what the power band is gonna look like yet obviously it's pretty peaky but it should have plenty of power to just for the gearing for what we want so transmission transmission can be cool it's something that I run a hollinger in a pro car which is a six-speed and it's a transmission from Australia that run used to run those in a lot of v8 supercars so this one is a little bit new to me being for trophy truck it's actually has an offset output shaft in the rear so that you can make it all-wheel drive or it has that kind of kind of scenario where if you wanted to you could buy the extra parts and make it all wheel drive in the front so who knows maybe we'll make this thing all-wheel drive it probably so yeah we're getting really close you still need to you know once the interior and everything gets finished off delivery goes on it put this thing on the alignment rack get the caster camber toe everything sorted out and then this thing is will be pretty much ready to rock we'll be able to take it to the track and film some videos so we're hoping to actually do that on Sunday before we go too soon it's a fired-up yeah fired up alright alright yep why don't you talk about the brakes again so John yeah yeah so it's really cool that John Reid is actually working remotely right now he's he's at home probably with his family hanging out maybe he's eating dinner at the dinner table waiting for this all these guys that sorted out here but basically he is just he just remotely logged into this computer and was you know obviously this computer's logged on to the ECU so he's able to do basically take control of this computer up in Oregon and tune it from afar and based on you know all of the insane amount of data that the motek offers and all the different sensors and stuff that we have installed any engine he's able to just look at everything and tune this thing from a distance which is free insanely John's the main tuner on my on the pro car as well and he works really really nameless performance and John up there to to make sure that things dialed on all the FD weekends when he's not available to actually come to the track he's he's very well-rounded in tuning a car from from wherever he's actually tuning a Lamborghini today in Texas while he was working on the map for our car so it was a good time to kind of refresh some people that have just joined us kind of tell us where we're at what we're doing and the plan in a couple minutes all right so yeah for everybody that's new and joining us we are just finishing the guys are finishing up an oil tank right now getting the last fittings and line ran and roast some fresh oil in it and we will be ready to crank this thing over Turk where in the world are we at so we are in San Diego California and honey Motorsports where this bar has been the entire time this is where it's been you know started from scratch the chassis was actually purchased from somebody in SoCal and then again here - honey motorsports and he you know the whole team and crew tore it down and started getting into it put the roll cage in it and then just started you know started from there I did all the chassis prepping to work up the engine mounts fabricate and make sure the engine and everything was getting clear and then I went to two M Auto Works to get painted at that time they did a lot of the cosmetic work to the fenders the louvers and the inlet they made me into just a lot of a lot of components on this car obviously there's a lot involved in putting an engine like this and they in a different chassis and everything's gonna be custom on it really one-off as well as the software to even tune this thing so it's everything has been a bit of a process but a really cool one because this is the culmination right now I mean this is a couple of minutes away from getting this thing cranked over and see if it fires up how many quarts were pointing this day ten courts 11 course things taking 11 courts you got a big old oil tank on there a big Mishimoto wheel cooler in the back right any other radiator yeah so it's a rear mounted radiator obviously since we wanted to since we wanted to bring the exhaust in the front and have the x-pipe and have it come out the sides to keep the sound and the length of exhaust as similar as we could to the this engine in its actual so we've got a big mission moto circle track radiator this is the one once you can buy right off the website this is the single pass you know big - 10 and line feeding and returning where buddy right now is actually working on the ducting so there's and I have a nice side plate coming in and then it's off the top we have a nice carbon piece I sure looks a bit like a mohawk and it's it's a nice scoop that sucks all the air in from from the top and it's gonna come come down in a hole in the back here that they trimmed out and feed right into the radiator so that's how we're gonna get our airflow we also have two very high flow Mishimoto 12 inch race fans as they pull like 2,800 CFM's apiece so that should be plenty to keep this thing nice and chilly also since it's not turbo we'll have to deal with all that extra heat that the turbo generates so yeah it should be good obviously we don't know until everything is it is working fuel save 10 gallon fuel cell or running vp ms 109 fuel on the planet this is the we have the Optima battery and aside here we're just keeping it charged up Beach works supplied the fuel pump the fuel filter fuel pressure regulator gauge with a Mishimoto oil cooler setup right here right behind the radiator all the vibrant line and fittings running back and forth front front the back things ready to rock man ready are we we got oil all right we got a private we got a pregnant that's true so I'm going to do a rain dance all right let me get on that text real quick with John Reid just to make sure everything's ready to rock them inside and let's do this all right I'm just gonna prime it for some oil pressure and then we get over the wait for the go-ahead from John Reid so yeah it's the future here so this is the mo tech PDM 15 keypad that's where we run the pro car as well just waiting for John all right all right you guys ready everybody clear make sure has some oil pressure everybody can you clear up there all right John says we're good all right so sit this we go guys like Oh okay all right John is sort of something I'm real quick all right he's in take this up good after all right whose no leaks near operating temperature John Reid still going through makes on the normal nobody's freaking out at the mall warms up mother Fred Roggin issue rants have to be at 80 degrees a little but after at least giving some rats cool example be fine by that Oh what sounds awesome that's it good start to the night for sure all right so I got we gotta make our dyno appointment so we got a rock make sure there's no leaks we gotta bleed the coolant we saw another 45 whatever million hours to finish on this thing so thank you guys everybody for tuning in and bearing with us on a couple technical difficulties big thanks to gum out tonal media honey motorsports the entire crew here the guys that really built this car I just had to do a lot of the legwork on parts and order and stuff so it's mainly these guys that did did all the heavy lifting and came out absolutely phenomenal so hats off to these guys couldn't do it you know thanks to all of the partners involved 1552 viper performance BC Racing Optima and everybody that just you know motek john reid unicorn garages there's so many people involved in making this dream a reality that beside myself so yeah it's well we'll show you guys some videos hopefully really soon this thing hopefully be filming on Sunday with GoPro and have some stuff ready to go at SEMA so fingers crossed the dyno go as well and this thing to be ready to rock so thank you for tuning in we'll see you soon
