    Just watched the first 2 minutes of this and for people looking for engines in the junkyard .. Do not do what he did ..look at an engine and say I want that one.. that is only useful if you are shopping for a non running CORE he did not try to turn it over by hand he checked nothing to see if it was good he did not even check for crib notes on the windshield (most wrecking yards leave notes on windshield that engine was ok and running when it cam in etc.. if the motor was run with no oil etc.. and pan was torn that info is on the windshield so they do not sell a scrap motor.

    • @mathewhoffer4541
      @mathewhoffer4541 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      watched more and the truck that had frame torn in half was a good choice for an engine ..why ? because you know WHY it was sent to the scrap yard the frame was bent. Cars or trucks with great bodies and no damage have either a blown engine or tranny plus all the other signs of no maintenance. collision vehicles can be ones well taken care of up to the moment of the crash versus others driven into the ground by decades of poor maintenance.

      I am looking for a non running core so i can get the engine for the low price... I bought 2 other engines this way and the others 3 ran when they came in ( with chain slap ) Now most yards do have not like you said, but this was not a how to... I just turn the camera on and film ( you are correct on what you are saying ) but this is yard that I trust what they have... They tell me they dont know if it runs ect... Only picked this cause of oil and the hood was closed... This engine I will open and see what we bought 200 bucks for this engine thats core prices... This great info for those and I may make video explaing the proper way to buy a engine form the junkyard with out staring it..

    As many cars I have, I could have bought a Marauder I still can, I haven't made that a top priority because it's not that important to me to own one and besides I can get the engine from the Aviator or the Mark VIII and go from there. The prices on the marauder is up there and so not worth me spending all that money my 2V engines are just fine and I'm happy with that.

    Mr. Marauder is all about "I bought something Better than you can Build - I'm all that, you should do what I did"
    In real speak that means, "I don't know how to use tools, and I'm too boozhie to get dirty, and I'd rather go in debt than have people know it, so you should fall for my B.S. - of course you can't because Marauders are limited edition and much more expensive, so I'm all that 'cuz most Marauders belong to people like me" THAT'S the REAL message from M.M.
    Truth is, smart money builds more car for less money (been doing that since I was young), and sends money boy home with his tail between his legs 'cuz he got spanked by less money than he has in a set of wheels.
    One more little rant from the old dawg - what does Marauder boy do when an air-bag goes south and he either spends big money to get the air suspension back, or spends money converting the car to coil springs - boi needs to get his head on right.
    Ok - rant over.
    Yeah, the 5.8 in that truck is probably a roller block, and its the same style short block MFM is makin 635rwhp with the stock block, crank, rods - just ARP bolts (no girdle or any fill) and forged pistons.
    That's about 700 at the flywheel - pretty strong for a stock short block, we went 605 on hypereutectic pistons but I missed the tune up and cracked one, so we stepped up to forged. don't forget that cheap 393 we spoke on.

    OG …. You are right marauder is built off of p71 basically same car but with different heads and intake ( short blocks identical I.e mod motor - parts relatively interchangeable). Honestly with p71 you can just swap heads and intake to make it 4v.
    Modular mustang guys use to take dohc teskid aluminum blocks (93-96 mark viii’s) because they were 1000 hp capable and put aftermarket 2v pi heads and turbo them like crazy.
    That being said still pound for pound best for a p71 is classic tag, then 302 but preferably 351w swap with 3650 tremec behind it. Just cause power potential and cost ….. efi or carb

    0:58... listen to your subscribers or stop making content man. You're parts hoarding and project car wrangling is stopping you from achieving anything. We all want to see you actually finish a build. If you're not going to do that, then what is the point of this channel? Might as well change the channel name to Hoard Car Parts TV.

      You are right, but there is message ( its deeper than just cars and parts ) it was like that the whole time.. Its a bout a community ( cars are 2nd ) or even last in some cases... Its about friendships .. I can finish a car and then what? and then do what with it ( ohh burnout ) and then what.. Its about the people you meet more than anything..

      RICH DISCOVERIES
      6 days ago
      @BST Ford Channel dude, I put everything on hold this weekend. I spent the last two days chilling with my kids. I spent the entire day today hiking my son who is eight-years-old, and brought him to all the spots I went as a kid. It was absolutely amazing.
      Without getting to into it, the whole family unit thing kind of fell apart when I was young. Vehicles and history is what I buried my head into to forget about it all.
      These Vehicles, these other people, they'll all be here when I come back, but I spent the weekend focusing on what means the most to me.
      I don't know you, but your words were exactly what I needed. Thank you. I had one of the best weekends I've had since I can remember.
      Do you, do what makes you smile, what makes you wake up every morning, all this stuff will be here when we come back to it.. God Bless

      @BST Ford Channel That is something that every father should do anyway. It should be natural to be selfless as a father and husband. I realize that not all have the privilege of growing up in a 2 parent home where the mother and father are both decent human beings. But we should all always want to do the best and be the best for our children. Anything short of that is just selfishness and brain damage. If it takes a TH-cam video about panther cars and motorcycles to remind people about these basic human necessities, shame on that person. But at least they are willing to acknowledge that they need to get something right.
      Nevertheless, none of that has anything to do with the fact that for years at this point, you have started countless projects and asked for donations and accepted contributions left and right, and have still failed to produce one single solitary finished project. This used to be a fantastic channel. At one point I truly had confidence in your ability to see all of these things through. And you almost had it with the Maverick and with the turbo Interceptor. It blows my mind that you are a dyno tune away from completing the turbo vic and you would rather spend money on extra engines to have laying around, rather than to finish that car. What a shame. What a waste. Hell a year ago you were selling the extra engines in your shop because you needed the money for necessities. Buying extra projects is a waste of your time and a waste of your money. And it is why your channel isn't doing significantly better. This channel could be generating enough income by now for you to have a steady source of revenue to keep your projects going. But instead you keep playing around. You have so much potential and you waste it.

      @@harrison4ever125 Yes farhers should do this anyway... Being a farther and a Dad is diffrent ... many guys are farthers NOT dads..Sodid your dad teach you to get the RIGHT woman to have kids with ( many guys fail that ) many farthers fail thats why.. I can tell ya ( many OLDER dads and farthers dont have those deep pin pointed convos so most guys have a baby mama 1 st time out ( aka a disfuctional woman agreed ) So as men we go about making money ( for the family ) things ( well ) certain things will fall short.Many have been blessed to have both parents in the household ( but I said this before ) they can be present but not emotionally inhouse parents
      So kids with parents in house should not married twice then( they had the bluprint ) but MANY did even with the in -house manual called parents present they fell short. I fell well short thus i teach the young boys on my faults
      PLEASE NOTE this is not anger by no means ( we are talking via typing ) which make things unceratin sometimes when you read it... I am just yapping
      Now lets address the car stuff lol..I can not multitask.. Maverick I needed a place to put it... I had none ( this what I do stash cars ) hidden from myself ..Then I started to think and see ( Maverick aint for me driving ) size wise .. The Maverick and Datsun helped me to fab and figure rust on cars so ( not a lost ) but a learning tool.. Now the slow videos and lack of growth. I dont lie on video so I give up the goods ( which ) makes the channel hard to watch cause of my honesty.. Example buying parts , buy cars, slow build, change of ideas lack of funds ( but junk stuff gets me ) and cheap parts ect and not able to focus ALSO dont help.So people turn off and get bored for sure
      Now you ask youself are they there for me or the cars? I should be 1st and the cars second.. Many put the cars 1st so I loose there
      I love the kind words with a back handed slap Josh not bitter at all cause there is truth in what you are saying .... The long pause on the build was simple ( Bike shop ) 1 year and 4 months so I left for many reasons , but the timing was by God. It prompt me to leave by creating signs that it was time.. While working and pushing ( for a blind gold that was not mine ) as I was doing this I have a TEEN boy going through something at home ( thats shared on the video ) MOSTmen WOULD say man up and fix it ( yourself son be a man ) .. Some kids dont work like that.. So by me leaving the job ( or Vocational school ) I focus on my son so we talk more than ever. I love him more cause of the talks.. I took time out to understand him ( and this new Gen vibe ) soooooo not many dads would have sat down with their sons and really get the grit ... ( the rat race ) of todays world makes many men funtion on ( provider only ) vs a Shrink and provider.. Many farthers do not have emotions ( for their sons ) daughter YES thus why moms spoil the boys.. and the MOMs go hard on the daughters ( sure you get that one ) right
      Now the donation part or your letter.. Donation went right into projects to move them along. Now the donation part over a 2 year period was not even 2k but was gratful for ever dollar and I cried many days cause this was such a cool thing people have done.. Even when you gave I was grateful brother... I was Grateful on people that I met and we talk on the phone NOW thats the great part.. SO now many TH-camrs will spend credit cards to make a project go through.. Many people have cars and trucks in there yard that they have to just throw away cause ( the lack of intrest ) so I sold maverick ( kinda pissed ) but family had to eat and I had to clear my head
      So engine part .. The white Vic bought a engine $200 bought another $200 bought another $200 ( 4.dohc ) oh also a 351w $200... $800 waste ( in your eyes ) $800 in the car world aint %$^$^ you can barely buy a SCT TUNER and a Marty TUNE ( correct ) so extra engines you mentioned 1 engine runing 1 about ready to be installed ( other will rebuild ) not a waste to me what I learned that many guys got into the CAR CULTURE by videos games so the real world dont really kick in for those people... They want to be visually entertained ( get the build going ) not knowing real life happens by some fault of the guy doing the video by bad choices ( thats life ) its real, but many want the fake and the fluff... So what is God plan? not your plan or what I think should happen what is Gods plan... Thus I sent you what that guy said we must help and show our flaws in hopes to help others.. Now you are the perfect Dad and Husband so you have no flaws to display for those to learn from... Well I am flawed brother and your right in all this and I thank you for the words and taking the time out to write..

      @BST Ford Channel Wayne I am going to level with you. This incoherent babble is why I put you and your channel behind me. I've come back once a month and caught up on videos, but you ramble and piddle and make excuses and still never accomplish anything. This channel is a waste of time both for you and for the people watching it. You talk about needing to put time into your family and other people needing to put time into their families. YET you waste countless hours piecing together videos that go no where and accomplish nothing. That's time you're stealing from your family. So if you don't have a financial gain from it you've lost that time and accomplished nothing. I am not going to waste any more time or words on this any more. Good luck in your future endeavors.
