    I'm European, but if I truly miss anything from Automotive Americana over here, it's the big pushrod V8s. I enjoy all the builds (and pizza) but if I had to pick a vehicle I'd actually want to own from the Stay Tuned fleet, it'd be PowerKraut. No contest. A modern European sports car, with an angry oldschool 'murican V8. Best of both worlds. Yes please.

      machine shop during world war 2. Think they made gun barrels, hence the overhead gantry. Tony did a brief tour awhile ago. This shop must have been out in the sticks in the 1940's. The house next door seems to have the same architecture too.

    Wish you would have ran the GT3 to see what time you got to see how close they really were. Awesome build sir.
    As someone who used to install stereos back in the late 80's and early 90's I 100% support your message about using the proper harness and wiring them correctly. It used to kill me people wouldn't spend the $10 to $20 and would cut the factory harness. We were always more than happy to charge them the extra hour of labor plus both harnesses to fix it in order for us to do the install and guarantee it. Lol

    • @rustymohr6652

  • @El_Chompo
    @El_Chompo 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +7

    This is so cool for a couple reasons. 1 is that Hoovie had a porsche like this with a v8 and it was also HIS favorite car. Seems to be a great combo. The second reason is Jay Lenno on his garage channel has many videos where he talks about the old days of combining European body and suspension with American power since both were better at that part respectively. It's cool to see that 50 years later after those cars Lenno was talking about, the same rule still works. I would love to see it with a turbo or supercharger or maybe aluminum block.

What a cool guy to be willing to wring it out for us. Thanks, Blake!

    Should weight and corner balance the car with driver in the driver seat. Balance without a driver is useless. A single adjustable endlink on the front and rear sway bars can help you release any preload from height setting also. Leave the bars loose. Do the corner balancing. Adjust the link to slip into place while loaded evenly.

    I’d love the LS 911 setup and the Gt3 comparison however I’m not sure that you gave yours the best shot at handling because of sway at pre load. Adjustable sway bar endlinks are pretty much necessary with a coil over set up unless maintaining stock ride height. Cross weights were awesome out of the box so you may have gotten lucky and there was no weight in the drivers seat. I know I’m a nerd but technically the sway bar links should be disconnected while corner weighting, a half tank of gas, and the driver (or equivalent weight) should be in the driver’s seat. Once all of the corners are where you want them and with the driver seated, adjust the sway bar end links so that the attachment bolts slide in and out of the heim joints easily. If you have to force the attachment bolt in then you will have pre-load.
    Just sayin’ 😂
    Keep up the great work. You guys are fun to watch!

    Just imagine what it could do with a fully built engine or even a built LS7 or LS9. For that matter add a couple of Turbos to the 5.3 after rebuilding it.add in a much better suspension system and better brakes and calipers and then see what it’s capable of. With an LS9 under the hood it would still be cheaper than a Factory Porsche GT3 or 911.
