@@simonyousif9123that seems like a good start. He uses it to take off, and then he doesn't further up. I can do that with my motorcycle, but I have to put pressure on the lever, and slightly, briefly release the throttle. He doesn't do either.
The really weird thing about a Lenco transmission is it doesn’t matter if you shift right to left like he does in the video or you can left to right. Whatever your preference is, you can’t change in the middle of shifting though, I don’t think. Those things must have some crazy synchronizers in them.
I remember reading an article in Hotrod magazine back in the 90's about the Lenco, I believe it was titled "when the planets align"; it's cool to see one in action.
@Brian... I'm same as you except my car was like this one except not as expensive..built destroked 400 with a B&M turbo 400, 4.11 gear..black with white old school button tufting interior done south of the border..black thread and buttons..cragar ss wheels of course..damn bro we old..😢 wait..saw a t-shirt that said " I'm not old ..im classic " yeah thats better 😅
Only thing sweeter than the 67 to put it in would be either one of my pops 65 Cutlass. Probably the f85 over the 442 but hard to make changes on original cars. Love the beauty none the less
Aww man this is a sick car! That is some of the smoothest gear shifts I have ever seen, and with no clutch DROOL...... The finish looks like matt black to me and is a perfect touch, almost stealthy. It kind of reminds me of something the Green Hornet would have driven if this car existed back then. Beautiful piece of art and the sound is music to my old tone deaf ears!
Every time i get better at understanding cars i see something like this clutch work.. or lack thereof and am once again stumped. Time to google some stuff! Lol. Awesome ride, sir
Music to my ears ! Along with the crew I grew up with , we very seldom see the big blocks that were so prevalent in the 60s sure ,we’ll go to the drags for a fix .when some kid with a buzz muffler goes by I have all I can do not to puke . Nice job on the clip ! 🚔
I need a transmission like that on my Fiat Panda 🐼 4x4, I sometimes struggle to get the power down on the road, that 875 cc Twinair engine with it's 85bhp and 2 cylinders takes some taming...⚠️😳😁👍
@aaroncash1848 I warned him about flashing devil horns the day he ran Tom Bailey's '69 and the chutes failed. He actually stopped doing it. Lately, though, he started doing it again. Is he a "made" man? We should all be praying for him. Remember the flaming man on his intro?
@@Makitaizationthis is an actual car. It doesn't need the battery conditioned, the right percentage of charge, or to be scrolled through senseless needless menus on some designed to fail touch screen to select its cute widdle drive modes. This is a real car which requires a real driver & carries a plethora of real engagement, enjoyment, emotion, and visceral rawness unlike hitting a button on a computer & a computer on wheels then sends a command to "go fast".

Wish I knew about that Lenco when I built my 78 Z28. Almost $40,000 later it runs a 10.32 in the quarter mile, daily driver but still an automatic, Turbo 400 w/ 3000 stall. That Chevelle IS SWEET!!!!

Aren't all multicylinder combustion engines cammed?
The horses galloping out of that engine is amazing. 🐎
Indeed! 🎯💯 That's exactly what it sounds like.
Lmafoooooo
Even sounds like it's galloping at idle
it does sound like horses trotting
NEVER thought of horses galloping @@ElceCole88
Obviously the drivetrain is badass, however, the stance of that rig is PERFECT! Bravo Sir.

I've never seen manuel look like that I guess? it's vintage? or is it for performance?

And why do these gear levers jump around a certain speed (or rev?) to, what I guess, is the ready position?

@@Hoaxer51 It is similar to those American Semi's 16 or 18 speed transmission only uses the clutch on 1st gear and becomes a clutch-less manual.
Looks great inside and out! The exposed Lenco is a nice touch. Mean lope!

No shield hope nothing happens and you don't end up with shrapnel all over your body
Beautiful ride though

Notice when he lets off the gas the front of the car drops down.
He was in pure lift mode.
Sweet!
Lets off? Watch the foot. Never lets off. Thats the point of the Lenco.
@@HoosierHayday if he did not let off what do you call taking your foot from throttle to brake peddel dude let off of it
Yeah. When you let off, with a Lenco, it’s like pushing in the clutch. The engine and trans aren’t “attached” anymore, due to the one-way sprag design
Well my 1.6 Diesel Focus does exactly the same thing. Most of that movement you see is the cameramans arm movement.
Acting sporty😂
Looks and sounds amazing! Nice work!
OMG I'm hypnotized!!

Love how long they wrap out too, and how you just stand on the gas ❤️
ONLY WAY 2 SHIFT,,. NEVER LET OFF THE THROTTLE
If that’s full throttle it’s sadly not making enough steam to justify a Lenco.
Just like an automatic
Very nice! I see that shiny red button on that 2nd gear knob 🚀
