World's 1st Manual C8 Corvette Drift Car - Fabricating The Borla Exhaust & Engine Dyno - Ep. 39
Now that Jei has all of the measurements complete, he can finally get the engine harness installed.
Next up was a trip down to the Borla Performance facility where I met up with David Borla and his team so they could build the exhaust. Check out those 2 1/4-inch primaries!!
Meanwhile, Semir at Gromm Racing worked on getting the block and heads machined, so we can finally get this thing on the engine dyno! What a surreal moment to finally hear this thing come to life! Big thanks to everyone for following along as my team and I transform this flood damaged C8 Corvette into a full Formula Drift spec drift car!

World's 1st Manual C8 Corvette Drift Car - Valve Cover & K&N Filter Assembly - Ep. 38
มุมมอง 7K14 วันที่ผ่านมา
Now that we have the fully painted Liberty Walk bodykit on, we can finally drop the car off the lift for the first time! Got the american flag painted valve covers back, so it's time for those to be ceramic coated, assembled with the new coils and then sent over to Gromm Racing to finish off the motor. While all of that was happening, it gave Alec and I the opportunity to start working on getti...
World's 1st Manual C8 Corvette Drift Car - SEMA Show Debut & Final Engine Assembly - Ep. 37
มุมมอง 12K21 วันที่ผ่านมา
For those that have been following the build series, you are about 1-2 weeks behind what's happening in real-time. Tomorrow, Tuesday 11/5 at 10am, I'll get to officially debut the C8 Corvette at the SEMA Show in the Borla Performance booth (Central Hall - Booth 22965). If you're here in Las Vegas for the show, be sure to come by and check it out! In this episode, Alec gets the hood and trunk la...
World's 1st Manual C8 Corvette Drift Car - Fabricating Rear Bash Bar, Tow Hooks & Braces! Ep. 36
มุมมอง 8Kหลายเดือนก่อน
Time to get the rear bash bar mounted up! To follow Formula Drift's technical and safety regulations, we are required to have a steel bumper and since the chassis is aluminum, that makes welding and mounting it a bit difficult. To get this done, I decided to use a floating nut plate that will be riveted to the rear. Since I'm not competing in this car just yet, I'm keeping the bash bar setup a ...
World's 1st Manual C8 Corvette Drift Car - Installing The Hood & Liberty Walk Wing! Ep. 36
มุมมอง 6Kหลายเดือนก่อน
Now that the rest of the Liberty Walk kit is installed, it's time to get the hood and Liberty Walk wing mounted. It's pretty straight-forward process that allows for some flexibility on the exact mounting locations, since some people may want it mounted further back or forward. Big thanks to everyone for following along as my team and I transform this flood damaged C8 Corvette into a full Formu...
World's 1st Manual C8 Corvette Drift Car - Drive by wire system & new wheel studs! Ep. 35
มุมมอง 6Kหลายเดือนก่อน
Lots to cover in this episode! Over the course of building my Formula Drift C6 Corvette, we've discovered a lot of things that work and a lot of things that don't work! One of those things are the 12mm wheel studs! Right out of the gate, we are going with 14mm MSI wheel studs for this build! Moving on from that, it's time to wrap up the throttle body linkage and then I show you everything that ...

2024 Formula Drift Road Atlanta Recap
Could someone explain what they did to the heads?
What were they talking about crossing over ford to Chevy pattern? Is this some Frankenstein engine?
Hi Matt, freaking awesome work! I have not seen quick disconnects before so thanks for that! Both brake lines and power... I'll be looking for those. I've been a mechanic and electrician for over 45 years. I was cringing when I saw how close the terminal for the positive battery post is to the aluminum side of the battery box. My concern would be that if the bolt for the positive battery post were to come loose and the terminal rotated, or there was an accident, The positive terminals could contact the side of the box and create a direct short to ground with no fusible link or battery protection. I'm not sure what kind of protection is built into the Anti gravity battery, but I'm guessing the BMU provides some protection. Another first for me is the Anti Gravity batteries! Very cool. What I would consider is to place a sheet of ABS, or stronger, plastic around the battery in the area of the positive battery post so that if the terminal does rotate or get forced by impact, it will contact the plastic instead of the aluminum. Just a thought from an electrician.... LOL... Never mind, you put the boots on there after the sparks..... That should definitely help...
there is a big issue i notice ... if the humidity high you will blow hot air from the front to the front glass you will have problem seeing ... try to mount the radiator to blow down maybe i dunno
Nice project! I'm just curious about the breather from the valve cover still unplugged while WOT on the dyno
What’re the numbers ?? 😭
It’s even visually appealing, hit them engine bay LEDs because yes 👌
Has to be the hardest to watch series ever. You have to smooth out your camera skills, make me want to not watch your channel.
So what if it’s a shaky cam. The content is the content don’t be a bitch
How much longer until it’s done?
Let’s go Matt! Essa is probably watching every video and truly wanting to come steal it.
Thanks, Matt! Grom Racing killed it! To see motor build and motor dyno, awesome!
That smile from Matt at 14:29 tells how awesome this really is. So stoked to see the chassis dyno video when it happens
fire it up dude! oh man this build has been coming out so sick, cannot wait to see this thing slide already!
Save the manual. I too am installing a manual in a vehicle that never ever had a manual gearbox. Installing a Tremec T56 Magnum in my Grand Cherokee.
I'm here early this morning.. Let's -Fucking- Go Doods!
First🎉🎉🎉🎉 17 days in a row. 😂
Actually you’re second
@ Always first, but thanks champ.
Long ago are the days for the pistons / rods LQ9 build. Nuts man.
That c8 looks badass and is going sound incredible. Such a fucking awesome build man
IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS VIDEO FOR AGESS
First again on the same vid😂
We need a c4 drift car ls swap
I wantyy to win fomula drft
What does a build like this add up to?
Super and proud of you Matt. The c8 will be awesome
🤣😂
I laughed pretty hard at this one✅💯
Literally every build 😂 looks clean Matt!
I'd make some aluminum covers for those carbon fiber covers.
With all the cool quick release stuff on the engine, those 8 tiny screws seem like a suboptimal solution.. Why not the oldschool, threaded rod and wingnut on top of the whole filter assembly style?
Need that first start up man!
When are we gonna hear it? I seen it at SEMA.
Saw the car at SEMA, GREAT JOB. You n Alex knocked it outta the park!
At 8:26 you were going to discuss the mounting clips....can you tell me what they are?
Nevermind I can see it's dzus 1500
Dude where s the new balances😂
Next season is going to be so killer
Congrats on all the hype at SEMA dude. I need to see you and Mad Mike drifting a long wall with your builds together, the noise and smoke would be epic.
Rad idea for the battery ground sander plug things. Made a mess the other day on my car with a flap disc and was pissed
Bad freaken ass brother. Can not wait to see this thing rip
2:22 we use these in aviation! They are called bonding brushes and we use them to remove paint for grounding wires or bond straps.
Do you plan on competing in FD with this car?
Such a sick looking car. Can't wait to see and hear it testing
Already looking for that Amazon link to them piloted brushes?! 😂
look up wire bonding brush on google and you should get something similar
Any luck 😭??
@LuisTorres-xe2kr No!! I'm hoping for someone to pull through. I did find fancy individual ones, but I want this assortment Matt's talking about.
Try searching for "pilot bonding end brush"
Someone’s gotta post a link lol I found a 5 pack for $75 they’re called a pilot bonding brush
I seen Larry cover that car at Sema, Let's -Fuckin'- Go Dood!
Im ready to see testing hoss. I haven't missed a video 😂
This build was inspirational to watch from start to finish congrats to matt field and all involved what a beast of a machine cant wait to see it drifting 🏁
Can I test fit the mock up engine for my dad’s 93 Chevy van? It’s been a minute since the last time La Chambalolona was going vroom vroom 🛞
Calling it a drift car but that car hasn't been side ways.. no its just a car still
seen the car at sema. had to watch the build series on it. C8 is gonnna be crazy💯
Wheres the reveal video!
Totally putting in my pre-order. Also going to get an XL hoodie if you have one in stock. I’ve still got 2020 & 23 hoodies. Will the C8 be at winter jam this year?
