SMALL BLOCK SCORE!!! ENGINE PARTS HAUL

- We score a deal on some used engines and a boat load of vintage old school small block chevy speed parts and accessories for our chevy nova projects. Which project needs a transplant? Our '69 Nova sleeper, the 1972 chevy nova yenko tribute nicknamed the "JENKO", or the junk yard rescue / revival 1970 nova. Let me know what you would do in the comments!
The best thing about the LS engines is all the guys giving away their small block stuff for peanuts. Awesome score!
That's true. I still prefer a regular motor with electronic ignition and a Carb. But that's me.
For sure this older small block stuff and retro ‘70s era stuff definitely seems likes it’s depreciating in value as the future generations are moving into the modern style equipment. For me I still love a motor I can tune myself. Either way I still think this was a great deal on parts we will 100% use on the channel!
Aannnnnd just like that I’m back in Nova heaven! Having owned three that were literally torn away from me back in the day,(a 62 shoebox, my fav a 73 hatchback and a 78 all 2drs) all to being totaled none of which were my fault, I thought my days of small block dreams were over! Saying that you’ve revived my spirit and not only am I a sub now but I believe I’ll go back on the hunt for a nice 70ish nova project car this winter! So many memories… Funny, the wife walked in as I was talking to the video, she thought I was on the phone lol. When I told her what I was watching she said “oh hell no, you know your luck with those dreaded Novas!” Well that made my mind up right then, it’s game on! Looking forward to seeing more on those two scored engines and what they land in and viewing your library. Love the 70! Thanks for taking us along✌🏼
That’s awesome! Novas are the best! Hopefully you have better luck with your next one. Glad you enjoy the videos and thanks for following along!
That engine on floor looks like it has the 2482 main caps. Those are nodular iron and stronger than the cast caps. Good score.
Yes they are 2482 main caps. Not sure what we are gonna do with that motor yet but definitely gonna do something with it! We will chat I’m sure you will have some great ideas on what to do with it!
Merry Christmas to you and your family. Keep the videos coming.
That’s a great deal. I was figuring a couple thousand for sure.
Yea definitely a score! All good stuff we will definitely put to use in the future
Hella, a score. Well done, gentlemen. Keep them novas rolling.
Thanks Troy! Will do!
😲😯great buy 👍👍
And happy Christmas....
Joyeux Noël !!
Great score, kid. I'd put that motor in the Nova 🤣.
This is a dope channel! and yea great score.
Good deal
Thanks Tim. We are definitely gonna put this stuff to good use. Merry Xmas to you and your family and thanks for watching!
Great deal, please put it in the 69!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Super deal ¡!!!🎉
Merry Christmas.
Smokin deal!!
I just found you but have to say open up the long block, see what you have, and if all is well drop that in the burned up car that's got the 307 2 barrel. Maybe swap to a dual plane intake depending on how the motor is built. Good score.
Yes we are planning on doing some more looking on it to see what we actually have. Not sure if we will put it in the burn car or not but we will definitely use it in something.
i think it would be awesome in the 70"
The ‘70 definitely needs the power turned up. I do want to get it to the track at least once with the combo that’s in it to see what it will do tho.
Autometer gauges if you decide to unliad a few let me knoe . Great score kiddo
Will do thanks Kevin!
That’s a smoking deal up here in Canuckville that motor alone would be like 2500-4K and that carb here new is like 600.00 and a used one is still 150.00 to 400.00 so definitely a awesome deal !!!
These prices sound pretty consistent with what we usually see here too. Like I said they wanted space to park a car in the garage and I wanted small block parts. BAM screaming deal! Sometimes car building is just being in the right place at the right time with a few too many dollars in your pocket haha.
I say build up the 4 bolt main short block and put it in the 70 nova and put the one on the stand in the 69 nova.
This is kinda the route I too was leaning towards. Still considering some options. If it were you how would you build the 4 bolt main short block?
Score!
Heck yea man! All good stuff we are definitely gonna put to use on the channel.
Nice score Everybody needs one of them I went to look at some snow tires and bought a whole garage full of mopar parts and motors for 3 grand I sold the 440 for 1500 it never made it to my place still have 2 340s 2 360s 1 318 roller motor and parts Sold everything and built a 422 small block
That’s awesome! Trust me I get it I’ve found myself in this situation a few times in the past few years lol. Mikey needs to find himself one of those mopar parts deals like that for his duster! Thanks for watching Dan and merry Christmas!
That one on the floor is a 300 to 325 horse 350 front passenger stamp pad will tell you everything about it
Haven’t ran the number to see what it came out of yet (most likely a truck). Super stoked that it’s a stock bore 4 bolt main though with the good 2482 main caps. Gonna have to think long and hard about how we want to build this unit!
Well in that case the 69 it is!
Maybeeee. Merry Christmas and thanks for following along
Little birdy cheap cheap!
Definitely put it in the 69 but get better heads and a rowdy cam if the cams you got aren't rowdy enough
Yea these heads are definitely this engines downfall. I haven’t investigated yet to see what cam is already in it. Time to tear it down a little bit to do some investigating and go from there.
Holy shit! 😳
That's a score of the century!
Thanks Jeff! We are definitely gonna put this stuff to good use. Merry Xmas and thank you for watching!
@@hatchsrecreationalengineer1997 Merry Christmas!
hello and Merry Christmas, just the 12sec motor would cost 2500$ here in Denmark so yes I am very envious of your prices.
Need to put that 350 in your 1969 I was out your way a year ago when covid hit I was working at a sister plant I. Fairfield New Jersey location
Heck yea! Fairfield is about an hour east of me I’m along the Delaware almost in PA. I think your right tho that it’s time we get back to wrenching on the ‘69. Thanks for watching man and merry Xmas
Great deal, if the 2 engines were just rebuildable cores that would be $1,000 for those alone!😯 Looks like someone had an early Christmas.😎👍
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and yours.
I agree I think just the engines alone were worth every penny of the $1100 without even considering all the new parts in boxes that came with it. Merry Christmas to you as well and thanks for watching and following along!
Put it in green one
Mayyyyyybe. Still weighing the pros and cons of each car haha.
Score ….!
Heck yea!
Definitely the 69 it has all the other components to get you down the track , Merry Christmas to You and yours look forward to more content ✌️
Hey sean! I think your right man. I think it’s finely time to dig the ol ‘69 out and show it some love. Definitely feel we have neglected that car long enough. Merry Christmas to you as well brother and thanks for following along with us!
I’d change the heads on the “12 second engine” and put it in the fire nova! Not sure what year that one is right now 🤷♂️
Hey Mathew! Not sure that we will change the heads on that engine just yet. We are most likely going to change to a dual plane intake and see what it will do first and maybe upgrade it later on when we know better how it performs. Maybe the burnt up junkyard ‘70 will get this motor we will have to see. That car may be more likely to get that four bolt main motor after we rebuild that unit. I’m not sure yet but I appreciate everyone’s input and opinions. Merry Christmas man and thanks for watching!
Sounds like a plan!
Whatever you do, put one in the 69 and the other 1 in the 1. You have the 305 and then get rid of like 30 five, you got too many of them for me to remember what year Jr. definitely the one is complete goes in the 69.
The ‘70 is the only car that has a 307. The ‘72 has a 327 (2 barrel) which is an awesome platform to build a high revving little screamer out of with some top end work. The ‘69 still has the six cylinder in it.
I would pick 69
I like your thinking Rick. I think you guys and Mike are helping to persuade me it’s time to pull that car back out and start wrenching on it again
@@hatchsrecreationalengineer1997 I think it is one of the nicer novas in the your collection… my cousin had a white 69 nova with a red stripe in the the middle of the hood and the trunk & it had a small block Chevy 350
@@rickbragg121 it is absolutely the nicest car in my fleet. It’s for this reason why it has sat idle for so long. I have myself all worked up the I need to build that one “right” and it has kept me from working on it. Time to get back on it though. You don’t need a $10,000 motor to build a car just a $400 mystery sbc will get the job done just fine!
$1,100? Did you walk in wearing a mask and have a gun? 😜😜😜 You stole that haul, my friend!
Hahaha no sir. I just helped the seller solve a problem. They wanted there garage back to park a car in there and I wanted small block parts. To be completely honest we made the offer without really knowing what was there we just showed up and loaded stuff and left. Sometimes this form of “bulk” purchasing works out and sometimes not. All I know is the sellers were very satisfied and so was I! Merry Xmas man and thanks for watching!
@@hatchsrecreationalengineer1997 Well it sure worked out this time for sure! Happy Holidays to you and yours!
I'd put it in the 70 being it's a race car and put the stock 307 from the 70 and put in the 69
Go back and watch the early videos of the ‘69. It’s a pretty stout car everything in it has been upgraded or built to go fast except for a motor (Currie 9” rear, split monos, cal tracs, upgraded drives shaft and u joints, wilwood big brakes, qa1 tubular control arms and double adjustable coil overs, th350 with full manual reverse pattern valve body, etc, etc)
Yall need to look at the one on the floor closer. It's a very early 350 . It could even be a 302 like the early z28 cars have.
I went and took a closer look at it this morning. Definitely not a 302 just a 350 with the good 2482 main caps. Gonna have to think about how we’re gonna build this unit. Great foundation to make some power with for sure!
If I can make a suggestion, consider getting a mic. Then you don't have to talk so loud, and it sounds better for us! :)
You can always make a suggestion! I have just started looking into mics to help increase our video quality for you guys. I really appreciate any feedback on the video you have. Thank you for your support and hope you enjoy the content!
Definitely the 69 needs that engine. Too nice not to have something worthy in it 😂
That’s what’s been holding me back for so long on that car. I somewhere along the line set my standards REALLY high for that project and unfortunately this mindset has set that project way back. Maybe it’s time to lower the standards and just get it going again!
Put the complete motor in the 70 & run the shit out of it at the track. Then build the 4 bolt main bigger & better for the 69.
Heck yeah man! What a steal!
Thanks Kyle! We will definitely put this stuff to good use! Merrry Xmas man and thanks for watching!
Can you say " low ball " ?? You robbed that poor guy.
The sellers wanted the garage cleared of parts and I made an offer on everything without even really dissecting what was there. In this particular case it worked out for me but sometimes this strategy fails as well. Both myself and the seller were satisfied with the sale price so I wouldn’t say anyone was “robbed”. The other thing to consider too is that we are going to use all of these parts ourselves for our own projects and to produce future content for our viewers. We are not simply buying parts and flipping them for profit. This is a great score to help our channel continue to build and grow and make the project vehicles even better!
Wasn't meaning that in a bad way. If the seller was happy then that is on him not you. It was like being in the right place at the right time. Your good fortune.
I’d vote for the green one too.
That car is bad ass! I love the stance!
Thanks Riley! My ‘69 is by far my favorite car in the fleet so I think you may be right that it’s finally time to show it some love. We will see. Thanks for following along man and merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas to you and your family too. I really enjoy your videos
@@rileymush thanks Riley! I have so much fun making them and sharing my projects with you guys. So thankful for people’s support!
Smoking deal
Thanks Richard! We are definitely gonna be able to do something with all this good stuff. Stay tuned! Merry Xmas to you and thank you for following along
Yesterday I went to my old bosses house to buy (all brand new and chrome) fuel pump water pump( a bad ass looking one) and starter all for 200 bucks. He threw in a few extra used parts like another starter and normal alternator no charge I'm extremely lucky to have these type of ppl around me👊 I'm almost done with my small block build
Hey Richie! You got it man. This is what hot rodding and car culture is all about. Finding deals and meeting people who are interested in watching you succeed without raking you over the coals. That’s what I love so much about this hobby! Thanks for watching man and good luck with your small block project!
That is a awesome deal and merry Christmas to you and happy new year
Thanks Robert! Merry Xmas to you as well!
Whichever nova still has a 6 cyl
My ‘69 still has the six cylinder and powerglide. The front and rear suspension, rear end, and driveshaft have all been upgraded and built to handle more power. We also built the trans for that car a few episodes back. It’s a th350 with a reverse pattern full manual valve body.
@@hatchsrecreationalengineer1997 then my vote is the 69
