I'll fill this in later. The "book" I typed in this field before didn't save. Come back later if you want to read more about the theories behind porting and polishing.

Okay. Now I've seen it all. There's an old adage that states "if you want something done right, you have to do it yourself". Well, this video both confirms and debunks that theory. A lot of that depends on each person's definition of "done right". You can't do things by-the-book with aftermarket hardware. Sheldon bought this car with a pretty full mod list and it ran great at the time, but by the time we got it to the track, we couldn't beat a 16-second pass. Despite the laundry list of ...

This is a continuation from my earlier coil-on-plug how-to video. I was troubleshooting an ignition problem where I couldn't boost over 14 PSI without misfiring or backfiring despite having an ignition amplifier, and this is what worked to completely resolve my troubles. There's lots of information about what parts work well on a 4g63 (and their relevance) as well as lots of reports about people having ignition problems once they're installed. I noticed that there's not really any ...

Good Morning! Have some caffeine. Have some 16 x 6" Steelies from a totaled AWD Talon. What a way to start the day! This gets me one step closer to the ultimate shitbox sleeper. I like the cheap black stamped steel look, with rust. This removes unnecessary contrast in keeping the overall appearance simple (hideous) without changing the wheel dimensions of the AWD talon... for the Colt. Now I can even rock hubcaps! ... anyway, it's been a long time since I've offered an update on this thing ...

I wanted to deliver a video without my normal beats and fast-forward edits. I wanted to represent this moment for the subscribers, fans and friends exactly the way it happened.

Why did I do this? I installed the Magnus Street Intake Manifold. A battery relocation is one of many required modifications that has to be done in order to support using that part because the throttle body location moves in such a way that the battery and upper intercooler pipe share space. There's lots of other reasons for doing this, though. How did I do it? I used the Summit Universal battery box (with 1gauge main cables and Summit install kit) 140A DC circuit breaker (for main line ...

These cars have always been my inspiration. The owners aren't anything like the type of people that own all the other cars that appear at this show. Nearly every car has been heavily-modified to produce some of the meanest, most powerful and best-handling cars ever built. Most everything else from any manufacturer at the show is mostly-stock. It's considered a sin to modify a Ferrari or Lamborghini, but the Pantera crew is like an art gallery. I grew up with one of these in my driveway, and ...

Some of my life's greatest memories involve the trips flying to California to meet up with my stepfather for several of the most prestigious car shows on earth. These aren't the drive-in cruisers or drag strip monsters that turn heads on a daily basis, but the most exotic, collectible and rarest of automobiles. It's the experience of a lifetime to drive a sports car down Route 1 Pacific Coast Highway. This video is just a tribute to the Lamborghinis at the show from footage I shot, and doesn ...

Included in this video: Installation of AC Compressor, flywheel, clutch, transmission, mounts, shift linkage, transfer case, and the improper way to install a clutch slave. The transmission is a TRE stage 2.5 with 4-spider diff upgrade. The clutch is an ACT Extreme 6-puck (sprung) Can't use the street disc anymore because I cook 'em. Don't ask me where to get the bronze shift-linkage bushings, I bought them used.
