- I’ve been doing a ton of work at the shop lately and decided to shoot a shop update about it. Much of what you see in this video will be future ETCG videos. As for the order those videos come out, I’m hoping you’ll let me know what you’re most interested in in the comments.

Let’s see a radio unboxing video Eric.
I wwouldnt mind seeing the two unboxing videos
Unboxing video for the radio. Mostly cause i'm curious with what it comes.
I agree. I am anxious to see the new radio.
Maybe on this channel.
You pass a vehicle down to your son, and your dad passed one on to you. Generational cars...awesome!
I didn't think of that. Great comment!
Omg that radio would be cool to see an unboxing
I can agree about keeping yourself busy, it doesn't take me long for depression to kick in if I don't work on stuff.
Cameraman Brian has been with you so long that he's practically family. It's hard to imagine how you got by without him, Eric. So in that regard, I'm glad to see the mini is staying in the "family."
What a compliment, to have cameraman Brian buy a car that you did extensive work on. He watched everything, even the parts where stuff went wrong, and he still buys the car, ha ha.
I spied a set of “ridgid tubing cutters”. On the work bench. Yes sir!!
I just broke my old ones. That's the replacement. Good eye.
You are one busy boy, Eric. What you outlined today, alone, would be enough to keep me busy for a year!
You’re going to love that Sniper efi. It’s a very nice product and super easy to use. I ran one on my car for about a year before installing a supercharger and going multiport. I found that if you up the engine displacement by 27% in the setup wizard it makes it possible to run e85. The first time running e85 in the car I drove to the fuel station on gasoline, filled up with e85, loaded a new tune with 27% added displacement, started the car and drove home. Easy peasy. If you decide to try it, just know that the tuning is the same for e85 as it is on gas. What I mean is, if the car likes to run at 11.5 afr at wot on gas, use the same 11.5 afr reading for e85. No need to adjust for the different burn properties of e85. The reason for this is because Holley uses Lambda, which has the same stoich value on all fuels (~1.00). They just convert it to the gas scale because that’s most common. I have a feeling this comment will get buried before you ever get a chance to see it, but if you do, I hope this info was useful.
Good to know. Thanks!
I'll watch what ever you dish out
just going to say once a mechanic always a mechanic
I would love to see the two unboxing videos and see all the work you put to in every vehicle
YEAH! Unboxing videos will be a change of pace and style of videos. It's like those tool review videos before.
Its nice to be busy keeps life moving along. You go home feeling satisfied when things are slowly completed.
Thanks for the cake!!!😁😁😁
Thank You Eric the car guy. Always love the shop update videos. Your a awesome guy who’s paying it forward by doing these videos. I’ve watched for years now (because I own two 98 Integras) and your one of a kinda. Hope all the best for you and a very wealthy future :) you deserve it :). Thanks for everything
Thank you!
Man I feel you. I still have all these projects going on too. Good luck Eric
Hi Eric, I think you should do inboxing videos as bonus videos for the week. I also would like to see cameraman Brian driving his new car and telling us about it and what he likes.
Also, love the channel and content as always. Can’t wait to see fairmont v3.
Yes to an inboxing of the stereo of the truck as well as an install video of the stereo and speakers
Love Retrosound head units. I got a Retrosound model two in my 79 Continental, I've had it for three years. I love it.
I have the sniper injection system on my car and love it!
I'd like to see the unboxing of the radio! Great update!
You are a genius with this stuff
Since you've done so much custom work, you need to add little signs everywhere so that in the future, they'll easily understand what it's for - like "Bat Fuel Shut-off" and "Bat Distributor". Just ALL over the car.
We saw the "color match" you got back. Yeah...
iv been watching for years never commented great videos keep up the good work!!!!
Thank you!
So happy to see the Integra still in your shop :D!
Yes! Finally! It actually is my birthday lol. Thanks for all the content Eric. Keep it up
Happy Birthday!
Let's see the dad's truck radio unboxing! I just deleted that stock radio into a storage cubbie and installed a single din radio under the center vents on my 1992 Chevy Blazer full-size
LOVE those new wheels for the Fairmont!
Unboxing of the radio. And yes we need more fairmont content please. :)
I can't believe how big of a POS that mini Cooper was. After seeing that series, I don't think I will ever even consider buying a German car in my life.
Yes please, more unboxing is fine.
Great update. One of these days you need to have a real cake or cupcake in hand with a light candle for the Birthday wish. People’s mind would be blown.
Yessss!!! Unbox all the things!!!!
And I know you're pressed for time, but I really really loved your tool reviews. If you ever slow down enough to do a few that would be great. I absolutely loved your Lysle valve spring tool #36050 review so much I bought one and fell in love with it!!!
Keep up the great work!!! I look forward to all your upcoming videos!
Yes yes we need an unboxing video eric .
It's nice to have projects but don't burn out. "Part of my sickness" that was good.
I have a couple engines to change. I will endeavor also to not burn out.
Unboxing video of the radio and speakers for sure please! Along with an installation video!
I bought a RetroSound for my '70 Charger, looking forward to installing it and seeing how it works. I have heard good things.
Rhino line Dad's headliner! And yes on both unboxing videos! Thanks Eric.
wouldn't mind seeing an unboxing of both those items!
It's my B-Day! Thanks for the cake!
Never thought I'd see the day when ETCG would go EFI...It can't be that long ago that I watched your video on building the fairmont engine because I remember your explanation why you went with carbs back then.
Meh, I took the carb as far as I could go. I had to do it. It was a great learning experience. Now I have a very good idea of what the engine likes which will make it easier to tune the EFI. Thanks for the comment.
Lot if stuff going On!
Yes to unboxing!
Unboxing the EFI would be cool. I repaired (as best as possible) a rear calliper on a MK2 ford focus last night, my neighbour had a new calliper installed by someone else 6 months ago and was very disappointed to find it was locking up again. Upon inspection the wrong one had been bought and changed, not the faulty side, so a lot of winding on and off and moving the piston seemed to free it up for now but I will replace it for him when he can afford another calliper or it locks up again
Eric, I'd really like to see you get back to your Honda roots and see some movement on the Vigor/ Integra. You could always sell the GSR to me though :P.
I think you've done this, but can you dive into valve guides/ seals? Heads are fairly complicated and delicate, so those insights would be really helpful to me. I have a B21 and H22 who each need some loving... but Honda heads are all probably pretty similar.
Nice! Yes on the unboxing vid's.
Yes a unboxing radio
Yes, an unboxing of the truck's stereo would be cool, you really have your hands full Eric...!! All exciting projects too, the viewer wins again!!!!
Yes unboxing of the stereo
yes unboxing videos would be great
Love to see the truck radio, unboxing
Yes to unboxing videos
You know what would be really cool? I've watched your channel for years now and I think it would be hella cool to see you do some restorations on your favorite cars!
Yes, speed up the editing queue for the fuel injection. Thanks as always, take care
unboxing dads truck radio great video eric...
Love unboxing vids
Definitely unboxing videos!
I am anxiously waiting for the mustang videos. Can’t wait to see what you will do with that.
So many cool projects!!!!!!
Yes please, would love to see unboxing or the new toys for the truck.
Thumbs up for a weekly update 👍
Eric I've been so excited for the dad truck project since I have a chevy 93 k1500 Cheyenne. My first vehicle that I still love. I'm 19 and would love to see every little detail on your gmt 400 truck. I'd love the inspiration and the guide through
Solid beard game
Love the shop updates! Thanks Eric, keep on 'truckin''!
If you have the bottle size in US (it's the longer, but thinner type), you could squeeze it on the shifter's column and have it center fixed. That way you can grab it and pull easily.
In vehicles like this I just mount them near the shifter on the floor. Easy to get to if you ever need it.
8:21 VERY great advice!
Keeping myself busy also keeps me out of trouble eric
You're giving your Honda Element to your youngest son? Just remember the seats can fold down into a bed.
Eric, there is so much I looking forward to seeing but I can't decide what I want to see more. Dad's truck or Sniper EFI. Stay Dirty, Alex
if the engine isn't in the Fairmont you cant get tickets with it. lol.
Yes to unboxing video
Keep going with the Chevy!!
Eric I enjoy your show, definitely interested in the sniper EFI for my build also.
Yes do the unboxing video would be awesome
Unboxing video! I got a 90 c1500 love watching the series sbc your videos overall!
Yes, please, i'd like to see an unboxing video on that radio. I have a 79 Dodge van and i've never heard of a company making replicas and factory fit radios.
Nice video Eric
I have a 1992 k1500. I am very interested in an in boxing of the radio.
Yes do unboxing!!!!
A coyote swap for the mustang or a eco boost swap would be cool it's a solid car and I've been secretly wanting for a build on it.
What! That's a classic GM truck steering wheel!
I really love your dad's truck and the videos you do on that I have a black 94 C 1500 Stepside and I'm all about and I'm all about upgrading it. I do have a Channel with a couple videos on it . I do want to see the unboxing of the radio and I would also like to see how that floor shifter is put in I'm curious on how to convert my column to floor shifter
Super sniper!! That's gonna be awesome I plan on running that on my mustang
yes unboxing videos
Hell yeah!! on the Holley sniper👍🏿
Yes please do an unboxing video for the entertainment system
I'd say just put the unboxing at the beginning of your install videos along with what you're going to need and just talk through your planning of the task.
Unboxing video by ETCG, I'm in...
Selling a car to a friend or relative...Thats a great way to destroy the relationship....😂
I'd never sell a car to someone I knew personally, it'd just get awkward if something went wrong with the vehicle, they'd feel awkward about asking you to fix it, you'd feel awkward about saying no. It never ends well.
also if they sell it or flip it for more. it cam make you feel screwed over.
RestlessJack 00 yes but if your friend is really cool and your honest with them with everything then it’s fine.
RestlessJack 00 yes but if your friend is really cool and your honest with them with everything then it’s fine.
Great that you are selling the cars, get some cash back in your pocket :-D.
The fairmont needs a quick release hood as it's open so much lol. (leg pulling).
And i thought someone had knicked the engine out of dad's truck :)
That last line was so good!
DE Nichols
Well when i feel ok, my silly side jumps out :)
Well THAT SUCKS!!! Part of our plan consisted of you staying CARB, DANG IT😡😲😡!!!!!! We are getting our new floor (entire floor pan), in 2 weeks, then the car is off to the body shop!
Honestly it's much better. I took the carb as far as I could, but for daily driving FI is the way to go. Good luck with the floor!
I'd like to see a radio unboxing. I need to get a bluetooth radio into my 08 Odyssey, but it's weird shape limits what I can fit in there; by the looks of it
I'd definitely be interested in a video on that FI system there. I'm a die-hard carburetor guy, so I'm interested in seeing if these FI systems have come far enough along to change my mind. Even today, I'm still not a fan of anything electronic in cars. The '74 Yamaha RD350 I built 8 years ago has zero electronics - that's the way I prefer all my vehicles. That said, GM's TBI system, and Ford's early Multi-Port system have proven themselves worthy of my use ... but this new system has yet to prove itself.
I'm impressed - you've got alot of irons in the fire, and are still passionate about it! I'm finding as the years pass by, I'm becoming less and less enthusiastic about doing anything repair, or build-related these days. I feel like I'm losing my fire. Part of it is health, but I think most of it is just outright disgust with modern vehicles. I did battle today on a '02 VW Passat, 1.8T with a 5-speed m/t, removing its smashed oil pan - I've never felt more wore out than I do right now. Took the wind right out of my sails. I know how this industry is - I've always had these ups and downs ever since I first picked up a wrench, but lately, the downs are DOWN, if you know what I mean.I need to take a hard look at how I earn a dollar, and start turning down work that I don't feel like dealing with, and not feel guilty about it, I think. I still have my 20 year old brain that tells me to do it all to prove to myself that I can ... but that doesn't work with the mid 40's body!
Anyway, sorry for the rant/vent session. I'm looking forward to the upcoming Fairmont and GMT-400 vids. I appreciate all your filming/editing efforts, Eric!👍👍
I'm interested in hearing more customer stories and life advice! Like career advice, happiness advice, finding a purpose and hobby in life
Don't find a hobby, those things are expensive LOL.
I would not mind the unboxing videos.
LOL...It's not a race truck so why...maybe I'll throw nitrous on it...LOL
Best way to get a four bolt main is to put boost and NOS in the two bolt.😂
It's for passing and merging onto the highway :D
@@killer2600 and getting around them slow driving cops.
I mean it should be fine with like a little 50 or 75 shot
