Yeah - try standing in the same room with it. Or two of them, for that matter. The sounders have since been drilled out.

Yes, 440HP (as stamped). This was a 318 RV originally - the 440 was swapped in later. And is a 69 build.

@@TheCarFarm that would explain it

Never heard of a Camp river site road, or anything similar, or even a river nearby.

Booooooo. :)

Well then, have we a deal for you!

@@TheCarFarm I drove it hard. I replaced an engine, two transmissions, rear end and front suspension within the 4 years I owned it.

Editing is a challenge. We have more filmed, in queue awaiting editing.

...well, we tried. But the cows and crops don't like grazing on the pavement.

In the video, I think I talk about tanks connected right to the air springs - the Arnotts do away with those. In the trunk is a larger main tank. When you have the stock 'pillow tanks' on the springs, that air volume is combined with the air volume in the bellows during comfort mode - this additional volume does in fact change the spring rate. Arnotts spring rates therefor cannot be the same as OEM that retains the tanks. But on the OEM, the large rubber hose to the spring tanks can leak at the clamp, or corrode - this has been an issue on mine, repeatedly - not always the air spring itself. But yes, you *can bypass or cork of the 3/4" (maybe 5/8") nipple on the air spring and bypass the pillow tanks. Do not use a cooling system cap, it's not rated for the ~150psi.

would there be much of a performance loss or difference with bypassing those tanks in the rear? I was considering getting Arnott's but they are pretty pricey when you can literally just plug the bag also, Which I have seen people do online. The larger main tank in the trunk is used as the compressors main air storage? @@TheCarFarm

@@HTES962 You can bypass the little pillow tanks as I mentioned above - you just have to use something that'll take at least 150psi. Yes, the 1 gallon or so tank in the trunk is the main tank - you need that.

...Stark County. Also, would you believe I played hockey with a fella with your same name?

Wow - firstly, a fool wouldn't know "you're" from "your" and post ignorant rants. Secondly, stand in front of me, and I'll fix that mouth for you. What you failed to observe was a completely unfamiliar machine resurrected with zero assistance from the internet. Think about that the next time you borrow someone else's knowledge, in lieu of leveraging your own. I'd argue the fool is the ignorant.

@@TheCarFarm wow the level of Butt hurt from the crescent wrench Vice grip crowd is epic. Ignorant rants? I actually thought you guys were spoofing for a laugh at first and just found it annoying instead of funny. Guess I struck a nerve. Suck it up buttercup it’s good cider anyway. I guess you never saw autocorrect slip one by someone before either? I won’t bother to mention that I had enough common sense and good enough observation skills at 12 to have figured it out on my own before doing something potentially deadly dangerous or destructive then. Of course I should be nicer and say it’s because I had good teachers an analytical mind and a passion for all things mechanical to the point that my nickname was tool box. I have to say though I shared your happy enthusiasm when you got it going but wasn’t surprised at all how little it took for you to do it. They really knew how to build stuff that lasted back in the day. I once dragged home a late model WC that had sat under a shed for 25-30 years and had it running in a few hours. Either way what really matters is you succeeded, had fun learning and nobody got hurt.

@@aaronfarr4753You almost got it - yes, we were having fun. No, autocorrect didn't change 'you're' to 'your' for you. No, we didn't plan this nor was _any_ research conducted. Yes, we all have been turning wrenches since probably before 12. No, we didn't have YT videos back then to lean on - just good ol' fashion mental capacity and now experience. Yes, you missed the seized engine, the 4ft bar and hours of soaking cylinders, that led to cranking with starter that led to coil for spark that then turned into a WIR episode. We were going to just drag it out with the skid-steer. This is also a very early video, and we had fun. And now we have a running, un-seized WD45 sitting down in the lean-to. Could we have damaged anything? Absolutely! AND WE DON'T CARE. We know ALL the risks, and it's just not a concern. In fact, had that thing windowed the block, it would've been more fun. It certainly would've struck the nerves of the tractor boomers.

@@TheCarFarm I didn’t miss the stuck engine part. It’s what I meant by not being surprised at how little it took to get it going again. If that was a farmall or ford etc your next video would have been of it in pieces and you talking about how you were waiting on an engine rebuild kit and the machine shop to finish with your block. I’m glad you had fun and learned a lot. Did the hand clutch free up on it’s own or did you have to unstick it? The video did remind me of how much fun I used to have dragging things like that out of the scrapyard and getting it going again. You are right, we didn’t have the internet, all we had was ask someone, go to the library or just figure it out by trial and error. My apologies for forgetting that sometimes and being snarky about people not using it now. I sometimes fail to remember how great figuring it out on our own and the sense of accomplishment that came with it felt.

We have many.

@@TheCarFarm cool AF. Would love to rip around in one. These cars were affordable in the early 90s for us

lol thanks for the comment! If you'll just watch the other videos we have on 2.2/2.5's, I think you'll see we are quite well versed in these cars! lol! We have every Shelby version ever made, every 2.2/2.5 version ever produced. I think there's about 8-10 T3 cars, about 7 87 GLHS's, a 2-3 86 GLHS's (restored), several CSX's (87s, 88s, and 89s). Some Dakotas. Lots of Shelby Chargers, various Daytonas (only car we don't have is a T3 Daytona - but we do have 1 92 Shelby parts car and T3 engines). I even have been driving a 90 VNT Daytona and also a 90 Voyager turbo - not yet filmed on the channel.

@@TheCarFarm Dude you got a full blown addiction ! Lol ! I found the intervention was a BBC and a tubbed 47 Merc ProStreet Custom 🤪 I'm contemplating going more modern and lighter with a Blown LT4 I got a line on one. And your right the Mitsu was a 2.6 ! Sorry must be alzheimer's !!! Lol !

Yes, fully aware, sir! Check out our other videos. It was my 4th Daytona owned - up to five, now. PS. The Conquest was a 2.6 :) . And in the Wraith I don't think there was a Maroon/Silver car. Augie's was all red CS (they painted the ground effects black) AUTO with Tan interior, T-Top (cool) - the opening car was a 86 White CS. In the chop-shop scene was a white 87 Shelby Z (not yet released at time of filming). But yes, DeeDee McCall drove a maroon/silver 84 and 85 (then finally, an 87 Shelby Z).

It's not the probe, it's both dewalt battery packs. And no, you can't shut them off. They need to be disassembled to have the piezo sounder ripped out.

...those Dewalt jump packs beep when they're connected, and you can't disable that beep. I can tell you it weighs on my mind every time we use them while filming. It's unnecessary, and in person, it's even worse. Then we had two of them in parallel for this video.

@@TheCarFarm I'd switch brands. That would drive me insane!

Right on - the owner will see this..

Cool I'm in Michigan and it should be an easy deal@@TheCarFarm

Pfft. I wish - I'd hire an editor before a camerman.
