  • In this episode we fire up the Ugly Duck LS Swapped Jeep for the first time. Come along and watch as we work our way through a few issues before we finally get it running. Huge thanks to Ace Performance Engines, Lucky Costa at Lucky's Garage and Bad Daddy Braddy for some donor parts!
    GRIFFIN RADIATORS. www.griffinrad...
    Radiators for racing, street rod, classic, muscle, exotic, or late model cars and trucks. Griffin has your radiator in inventory or can build it to your exact specifications. Griffin is the only manufacturer that maintains templates of virtually every car or truck, make and model. Your Griffin radiator is truly a performance radiator, not an adaptation of an OEM product. In most cases it is a direct fit, bolt-in replacement that is made to fit your vehicle, although sometimes requiring modifications due to core thickness.
    LUCKY COSTA - @mobiletechlucky
    Lucky Costa is a mobile mechanic who found his way onto the set of the Overhaulin’ show a few years ago and who is now the cohost of our Hot Rod Garage program and a regular guest on Roadkill. He’s even in one episode (so far) of Roadkill Garage. In this Roadkill Extra Powered by Dodge, David Freiburger grills Costa on his backstory so you can get to know him better than you do already.

    • @gasratzcustoms
      @gasratzcustoms  4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Champy US Well it starts off with a junkyard motor for $500 and from there it really depends on your budget and how creative you can get. You have to price out the big items, motor, trans, cooling system. Then there will be a ton of smaller priced items that could add up fast. Its possible to make it happen for around $4k and finding used parts and some donor items from friends.

      I just finished mine and paying for all new adapters from Novak plus 2k for motor/trans/harness from junkyard I’d say about 7-8k th-cam.com/video/35-vGLggHCY/w-d-xo.html

      Its a Cooling System Vacuum Filler tool. Excellent for finding leaks in your system before you add coolant.

      I like to drill and tap radiator cap for pipe thread. The I put a air gage on, then a regulator. I like to pressurize the system just a few psi over the radiator cap rating. About 20 psi. If you charge the system to 100psi compressor pressure something valuable is going to blow up. I also put a T- fitting with a valve between the radiator and the regulator so I can bleed the pressure off when I am done

      I used a set of headman headers but if you plan on keeping 4wd they won’t work for you because the front driveshaft gets in the way of the tubes
