While between car builds and waiting for more parts, I decided to have some fun and V8 swap my old riding lawn mower. This is a video on the build and some fun reviving it up at the end... my neighbors might hate me if they didn't already... but it's badass so it's worth it!

Where's there is a will there's a way ! You proved that guy, that things awesome ! 😂 👍🏻
put a working deck back on it and cab it
A throttle pedal maybe! Then the sky's the limit!
You're living my childhood dream.
How in the world can we ever replace the screaming V8 with an electric??
The sound, the smell's, it's really the only therapy for millions of men all over the world.
AND some of us ladies, too!!
Monster mower
Well they think that's gonna help with pollution and stuff. Like the straw thing with the plastic ones being replaced by paper straws wrapped in plastic. It does literally nothing.
@@reaperhunter7297 why not just have reusable metal straws similar to that of silverware?
@@TheNuclearBolton idk
I want to see you put a mower deck on it and zip down a golf course at 80mph while mowing. Let the grass fly............and name the mower.......Mo!
O pop
goes fast enough, don't need a deck, just a sharp sickle bar mounted underneath it LOL
Mo powa
Yea but heed have to have a directional converter for a vertical deck
@@iceblazor9452 what ever it takes lol. Nascar would hire him lol.
Imagine a worker at Edelbrok, at a machine milling out parts, looking at it done, and thinking, "yeah, this is going to make some lawnmower super sweet!"
🤣🤣🤣
If the apocalypse ever happens I will seek and find a florida man to help my clan survive long live the florida man
Sincerely your neighbor from Alabama.
It was great to see you use the Edelbrock intake instead of a chinese knock off !
Yeah, I was wondering about those late heads and early intake center bolt angles. Had to hog 'em out huh?
@@paulhare662 That was my guess. TBI heads and a standard Gen 1 intake
Okay why would you anyway okay but anyway summit is the way to go or napa no knock offs there
I love my Edelbrock stuff but it's worth more than the engine, I buy used intakes mostly, and I don't own any Chinese aluminum but I would consider it for a lawnmower
@@cargotoolshop5319 all of IT is made in China
Let’s get that speed up!!! I wanna see this thing launch! I was scared for you at first when I saw the extensions put in, I thought first shit at the throttle it would bend the frame and break haha. But you solved that with the gearbox
These kids look like they know what they are doing. I love art and GOD
Aman we need more of this
@@granch4211 u ain't kidding.
Hey if you got a yard full of Ford's, you better know what you're doing ,or you're going to have one rich mechanic
What ever happens end goal must be a burn out....
Good 😌
GUYS THAT IS A NEW SCAM GOING AROUND ^^ you cannot hack, it doesn't work like that.
@Salvatore Brandon, you're an accomplice troll to your boss, selling your trash. Go away, you're not welcome here.
@Tristian Blaine I
@@insaineylaneyr8528 it'd tear the rear end out in a second. How bout the deck ?
You keep doing what you're doing and one will be one hell of a car builder
I say put a 700+HP Hellcat Hemi in it!
Keep doin what you`re doin! You`ll be a legend!
I would enjoy driving that lawn mower so much. Wow
I love this build ... better than anything I've watched on the "big" YT channels. 👍☺️
How about the 2jz lawnmower
Definitely need the tractor flaps, and get that idle as low as you can.
Maybe a more lopey cam so it rocks?
Let’s see if you can get the mower deck installed back on it & functionally cut grass, then you’ll have the baddest REAL lawnmower.
The people need to see this, better yet take a lesson on your positive attitude. This is the best smile making video I have ever seen. Maybe ( life shaker ) keep up sharing the love it helps the public.
i like how you mounted the battery in the same place you mounted a car battery on your sisters Power Wheels Jeep when you were 8 years old... oh and I vote "GRASS GASSER" because it resembles an old school gasser..
Gotta get u a gearbox that'll make that wild SOB the King Garden tractor of the block & do 80 mph!
I’ve already seen lawn mowers doing 80 mph at Atlanta motor speedway using modified mower motors. V8 not needed for that
This is a very sturdy and well built mower. I thought I wouldn't like the foot operated speed control but after one use th-cam.com/users/postUgkxTZSPVwJFBv2hORqhQamtxi-tAe5K2EtC , I can't believe I ever had one without it. It drives like a car with an automatic transmission. Easy to adjust mowing speed according to grass depth/thickness. I have yet to get used to the long throw of the blade engagement lever but kind of get why it is that way. It allows you to hold mowing for short moments if you need. The engine seems very substantial and the frame has very little flex, both adding up to an impressive package. All my previous tractors were 18 to21 hp with 42in decks. This one is 23/46. I mow about 1.5 acres about every 5 days here in Alaska and that mowing time has been reduced by about 20%, partly due to the very tight turning radius. No loop arounds lol. Hour meter, cruise control, reverse mowing capability,deck cleanout and easy assembly all add up to a very well thought out tractor.
You are heading in the right direction !
Take your time, and sort out the correct drive systems needed to drive a larger than original mower deck !
Maybe something like a 60 inch deck !
Stiffen up the chassis a bit !
Extend an original hood, and make it look as close to correct as possible !
And then you will definitely have something no one else has for sure !
Don't u like how he goes slow an takes his time and explain everything to us 😂😆 u did a terrific job man
I know, right? I love it when people talk slow cuz I can't think fast.
Isnt it a wonderful gift to be able to create like that? Cherish it. I had that gift for over 40 years unfortunately i can barely walk now. Great video. Great work.
You are the ones that guys my age (35) learned from.... and I will always thank yall for it !!!
@@danielmarkle8823 just remember if you build it you will bleed. But youll have a hell of a lot of fun. Always keep lots of super glue duct tape hydrogen peroxide and paper towels on hand. You can stop most any wpund from bleeding and save most body parts long enough to finish the project or at least get to a stopping point. I got so good at sewing myself up i had others ringing me at all hours to to show n sew. Thats part of it. Not every 52 year old man has a three person gas powered snow ski slightly modified for extreme high speed drag racing. It was pointed out to me that most either didnt make it to 52 or that most never thought there was a need for one. Stick with it. If your friends dont back ya. Get ones that will.
That is so funny that me and my Dad are not the only ones to do that !! I got a picture in my phone right now with super glue and electrical tape who needs stitches !!! Lol
@@danielmarkle8823 if youve ever wondered what it would look like to trip over a 3/4 hp router with a 3/8" diameter bit in it with about 1/2" bit sticking out and while tripping you fight to catch the router to avoid damaging it and are in fact tha man because you did dive for and catch the router with your open hand and thinking like only a genius could instantly cupped the top part of the router to avoid a fumble and inadvertantly turned that son of a bitch on. Oh yeah. Im just glad .y hands werent full. I might have tried to catch it in my crotch. Ok in retro spect the router is a hell of a lot cheaper to replace than to create another hand but in that spur of the moment you have to be able to make that decision and to hell with the consequences. Besides the other guys making fun of you are just jealous or glad that they took your advice and reallydid get a huge life insurance policy on you without telling you.
@@davidreynolds4684
WOW !!! Did you lose your whole hand or just some of it ? And how long ago did it happen ?? Is it what stopped you from working or building ??? So many questions..... sorry I guess that's kinda rude to ask that stuff
America is in good hands with young men like this..nice work🏆
Thank you!
Just need to fabricate a pedal for the throttle and your set absolutely cool af brother !
" I rolled my mower"....how.. " oh you know I was just sitting there revving it "
I want to see it go screaming down the road! Great job building it!
Para hacer lo que hiciste, tienes que saber un chingo de mecanica, soldadura, electricidad, ext.
Te felicito por ser un muchacho inteligente, tienes futuro, adelante buen compa. Amen.
Great job. That's ole school mechanics,, making something that never should be. Keep dreaming and building the dreams
When you crack that throttle it doesn't sound slow
It is lol that gear box want last😂
But it IS lmao
V8 exhaust note and the slight spent fuel smell is therapy for men all over the U.S. It calms the most troubled souls.
Complete with a drink holder haha thats badass!
It's something the water boy will drive after getting married to Vicky 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👍👍🇺🇸. I bet if Adam Sandler saw this he would probably be laughing his ass off maybe 🤣🤣🤣👍👍. It's funny that it's even slower.
Dat's it , he need Vicki valencort to adjust his gears with a big set of water pump pliers. Den he can drive to skoo.
Den da ho team can get high quality H2O.
im surprised this video didn't go viral i loved it haha
Awesome video!!! I wish sooo many of Us men had fathers like young men like yourself...it really does mean the world ,especially to Our many lost young people...(God bless you and your family)3 thumbs up to your Father.from a 65yr. old blackman..who didn't have that.thanks
Crazy v8 lawn mower build it sounds good
I love this build I would love to see you smoke them tires out on the street
I guess all the grinding dust and metal shaving around the Rockers going down in the heads give it that extra high performance clearance.
Can you please show us on the doll where the grinder dust touched you?
@@user-vd9fz5ey9m well guess we know what you think of all day now.
It’s more badass that everything is done with harbor freight tools and a flux core welder. Shows that you don’t need expensive/fancy tools to build something and have fun.
Id put a gas peddle on the right side floor board and a 292 cam and a different transmission so you can go faster. Cool build. You did a great job at fabricating and stretching the frame and buildings the motor mounts and radiator support and the top radiator hose. Keep up the good work. You can build anything you set your mind to.
Definitely get the proper gear box for it
I say go hydraulic so you can actually harness the power.
If you put the video on 2x speed it actually looks pretty fast. No hate, I love the build.
You, my friend, have some serious talent!
Nice neighborhood, I bet your neighbors love you!
I was waiting for a burnout !
The torque was awesome, lifted the tires!!! Definitely a Conversation piece!
1 burnout and it would destroy the transaxle,and or the belt,also any faster and it would tip over! but still one hell of a eye catcher!
I was was waiting to see a burn out too . He did good fab work but I think he's afraid of that horse power that thing has. I don't blame him.
Why do I see Tim Allen when I look at this. GET-R-DONE. 🇺🇸🇺🇸 AMERICA 🇺🇸🇺🇸
Awesome video.. Didn't talk it to death like some , but a pictures worth a thousand words. You have a lot of talent.
Love the sound of those pipes.
Love it !!! And a Florida boy as well. Hard to beat. Well done young man! You have a future ahead of you.
On another note, holy crap it's cool how much she rocks when you rev the engine 🤘🤘
So if nothing else this is the coolest run stand ive ever seen. Probably great for breaking in a freshie...or testing junk before you put it in a car. Best thing ive seen all day
Круто. Респект. И вообще, парни, привет вам из России.
You're a freaking legend mate! This was wild
That intro got my subscription 🤣🤣🤣
Glad you got the reference 😂
Even though that thing is absolutely worthless, I do admire your creativity.
The TRACZILLA !!! Awesome conversion!
You should put high gearing in the gearbox and hook the throttle onto the steering wheel so it goes 10 times faster
Ok, best video I've seen today, the Chevy trash talking was on point. 🤣 Twin turbskies, Cleeter Mcskeeter would love this!
Chevy power trash still working looks like once again square body Ford 75 or 76 in the background not (Found On Road Dead) it's in the yard maybe he could put the motor in the truck
Totally underrated channel and video. Awesome.
Thank you!
😊 Labas! Aciu kad pasidalinote! 😉 Gerai atrodo galingas super patinka! 🌲👍👍👍
Unbelievable man! You have some serious skills bro, the tractor is sick as hell
it it just needs some tweeking
*Laughing my arse off at this. I'm jealous.*
*Just subscribed, BTW. 👍*
Boy I hope you put a good kill switch, and a very good and operational throttle control, with a strong return spring on it, and Oh ya a Wheelie bar wouldn't hurt either, in case you end up on your back with a V-8 laying on top of you !
Your my new hero I used to pull corn burning cub cadet and wheelhorse in my younger years I am impressed. Call it fuelish pleasure
I guess with only one gear I don’t have to worry about u not wearing a helmet!
It has 7 gears
It's a 7 speed and the gears work in forward and reverse
It desperately needs a real transmission. And maybe a roll cage
I agree; Mr H already has the 'basics' down cold. Although a larger fuel tank, even if only 2-3 gallons would help, and an alternator, assuming there isn't one with the PTO. And other mod would be nothing for him to add on, as needed.
Those smiles say it all...
That will work, Thanks for sharing.
Интересная техника. Сильный аппарат. Класс
Who needs a mower deck when u can shred the grass with this beast!
Cool process thanks for sharing 👏🏻💪🏻
Very clever drive system using a right angle pto, genius!
killed it with the chevy! ugh
You did an AWESOME job!
The kid has skills! Priceless!
Best intro to any video that has a lawnmower in it😎✊🏼😅 “I mow my grass a 1/4 mile at a time”😂😂😂
Throttle linkage would be good . Lol badass build 😎
Fun in the sun that's why! Looks good. I like the Sodzilla that would be cool. I have a cub cadet with my old SVT focus engine in it. It's hydro drive so don't need to worry about tearing up the box. It would be complete with blades though. Well done.
I built something like this about 14 years ago out of an MTD mower, but I used a roller cam 5.0L Ford with a C6 auto and narrowed 8.8" rear end and 15" 5 lug wheels. Festiva front spindles/brakes/wheels. It was a sketchy machine and would do ~70 MPH in 1st gear. I burned about 5 gallons of gas and cut it apart before someone got killed
Awesome informational educational video experience Y'alls God Bless Ya 🙏
Real transmission for sure!!
Tim the tool man would be proud
A power glide or velvet drive would be ideal transmission options
Awesome swap. It sounds like a lion roaring when you accelerate it. Cool video. Thank you.
That’s just nuts but freakin Awesome
make that thing go faster that thing will be fun as hell. raise hell praise dale YEEYEE
That thing is awesome! Sweet build, Man! Monkey Grass Manson is on the prowl!
V8 mower. No grass to speak of. Perfect. Love it. Drive belts are slipping I assume. Indirect correlation between wheel speed and engine speed means slippage.
Lol this thing is cool as hell, can't wait for part 2
That Thing is CRAZY BUT WAY COOL 👍👍👍👍👍
Long tube headers flipped around and made into side pipes, gear it properly, needs some big slicks!!!!! And some skinnys in the front. Gusset the frame!!! Ford 9inch cut to fit, hahahaha lol!!! And do a spun aluminum fuel tank gasser style!!!!!! That thing is awesome
Just what my Lawn needs! I’ll get one if I win the Lotto
I'm a Mopar man myself, but that Chevy works for me 😂
Love the build
Awesome Mower.. but it know needs small upgrade on Cam & yes 4 Tractor Exhaust flaps..too keep rain from going inside Engine
Outstanding build. Fix the throttle.
Sounds great
Thank you a crazy Floridian I'm even crazier
Alot of work to throw a little shade. Your pretty handy....cant wait to see you LS turbo that mustang!
You did a great job now make it go faster !
I love it!😆 I'd like to see it go fast 😆
