My dad was a master mechanic. This is the only video I have of him. He was excited to see this thing come alive. I lost my dad in August of 2020 to cancer. He loved to hunt, fish and build hot rods. I miss him every day. Today was his and my moms 30th anniversary so he's been on my mind and this is the only way I can visit him. I'm glad I got a video of him doing somthing he loved. I miss you dad. I'm sorry I couldnt get home in time to say goodbye.
Your pops was the kinda guy I would follow around and ask a billion questions just to learn some of their trickery...thanks for sharing the video and backstory.
Sounds like my garage when I was growing up in the ‘70’s and my dad and his friends built bad ass boat engines for flat bottom v-drives and jet boats. I miss my dad and those great sounding V8’s. This video brought back some great memories. Thank you.
It's a fact your not a great mechanic unless there's a cig hanging out ya mouth if it's lit and his ashes ain't fall while he tell you about your car let em fix yo shit💪
Hey man I read the story you put up about your dad. He definitely knew what he was doing with motors... So sorry for loss Brother... He's still looking down at you.
This motor was for a jet boat. The way a jet boat cools itself is it pulls water from where its sitting so we would hook it up to water to simulate that so we could set the engine timing
So obviously some people watch and tire videos just to leave negative know-it-all comments that they know nothing about not funny man but this the world we live in
You are correct about the water line connected to the engine, but a cigarette will NOT ignite gasoline or fumes. If you don't believe me, then get a coffee can or something similar, put about a cup of gasoline in it and toss a lit cigarette there.. It will go out as soon as it hits the gasoline. You can also hold it around the fumes and it will not ignite either. The reason gas stations have no smoking signage is because people can ignite fumes when they initially light up their cigarette.
twocurdogs I have started a gas fire with a cigarette so please do tell? Maybe not when it's just burning normal but when you take a big inhale it gets much hotter
@ Fireball Robbie Marine exhaust is double walled, Think of it like a regular exhaust system and then they build another exhaust system around that one! The water circulates through the engine then enters the exhaust between the two walls circulates through the pipes and then towards the end of the headers the water finally messes with the exhaust and exits the boat!
Individuals even grouped do not compare to the damage being done by large corporations. There are 100 companies that do 70%+ of the emissions. They have addresses. They are the problem. Hell, Cuba is one of the only carbon negative countries and they have tons of horribly inefficient 50s cars and trucks still on the road.
@@betweenthebennyandme I "rodded" flatheads (destroked them) in the early 60s. Yes, big corporations pollute. Sadly the answer isn't the electric car.

your old man is one of the great ones i will do a burnout in my 496 71 monte in his honor when its done
That's gonna rip in whatever boat you put that in!!
Sorry for your loss . Love the video.
Sorry for your loss brother build sum mean for him in his honor and never sell it!!

We had a nitro dragster in the garage . Thanks dad for making me a nitro junkie 😂
Lol, before I realized it was a boat engine hooked up to the garden hose. I was thinking ‘boy, she’s running a little rich’
Before I realized it I was wondering if the old timer had a death wish with that cigarette lol
I was like: why is this thing pissing out the collectors?
I was thinking the same thing 🤣🤣🤣
Forgive my ignorance but I didn't know a boat engine allowed water to run thru tje engine out tje exhaust. Please educate me
@@lonelypinebeefarm4297 I asked the same thing. Doesn’t seem normal in any circumstances
The cigarette and beard tell me everything i need to know. Master Mechanic
No way the engine would run without the cigarette :)
That guy oozes experience. If I was having an engine built, I’d want it done by that guy. 😂
I'm so glad I'm living during the fossil fuel era....GREAT SOUND!!
Bad ass Chevy 496...Beautiful sound!
It's been 2 years today since you passed, and I can't f****** stand it.💔
Build another couple of engines in his memory😊
What a sound............chills..........
Wow. They finally made an engine that runs on water.
I love watching uncle tony getting burnt and keeps on working!
it's uncle Benny❤
Honey ineed a sprinkler system. Husband say no more.lol
Love that 496
It's a fact your not a great mechanic unless there's a cig hanging out ya mouth if it's lit and his ashes ain't fall while he tell you about your car let em fix yo shit💪
Happy birthday! Angel food cake and strawberries 🍓
If he doesn't have a cigarette hang from his mouth is it actually being tuned right? Not to many old timers like that around anymore
wow
sounds great
I need this on my Pontoon
Old timers never wear earplugs.
He was deaf in one ear, couldn't hear out of the other.
Damn!! That's going to be he fastest, most badass dollycart on the planet!!! 👍😜🤪🤣
That was funny!
Thats water. its set up to go in a jet boat.
iTS NOT FOR A JET BOAT
@@teanes0323 its literally in a cherry 91 four Wynn's jet boat.
Hey man I read the story you put up about your dad. He definitely knew what he was doing with motors... So sorry for loss Brother... He's still looking down at you.
Fantastic!!!
What components did you use for that?
What is your total timing set at and where does your initial timing end up falling to? What Octane fuel are you using? Thanks
It was pump gas. Other than that I have no idea. My late father built the engine almost a decade ago
Nothing like a big block
WOW. Let the BIG DOG EAT!!
This is a bad ass
💥 Good Lord a Gallon Of Fuel Is Coming Out…That Better Be Water :)💥
Water ❤
I was like dang son a little rich than he leaned on the header than saw comments it was a boat motor lmao
Is that Speedway gas coming out the pipes?
Water
How muchIs the 383 stroker?
496
Can 1 of you guys tell me what's happening here? I've never seen this before
This motor was for a jet boat. The way a jet boat cools itself is it pulls water from where its sitting so we would hook it up to water to simulate that so we could set the engine timing
It's a Smoker !
Cool.
Sweet I subscribe just now
Hell yeah
Estimate hp?
They usually make around 600, lol
More like 650
fuck yes
So obviously some people watch and tire videos just to leave negative know-it-all comments that they know nothing about not funny man but this the world we live in
Что за вода из туб?
двигатель предназначен для лодки. находясь в воде, лодка будет тянуть воду из озера и циркулировать для охлаждения двигателя.
@@betweenthebennyandme Спасибо.
Now put it in a Miata
37 degrees t.d.c.
Your right buddy. I didn't know it worked like that. Sorry.
Fireball Robb all good. Didn't mean to get heated lol
Benny Stanfield no not at all I was half asleep when I saw it then I ask my buddy Charlie he told me no that's how it works.
💔
I wanna put that in the bed of a chevy LUV truck
I hope that cigarette isn't lit!
That's my great late husband, guaranteed the cigarette is lit
lmao literally spitting gas.
its fucking beautiful
if thats gas why is a water line hooked up to the motor it's water or his cigarette would have roached them all

street slayingGTO hahah😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
It’s for a race boat so it’s water not gas
I think it runs too rich
They want them a little wet, detnotation issues if leaned out
What do you know...
@@vernonlingenfelter4847 Its water not fuel
That motor needs to be taken apart before it locks up. You can compress air but not water.
It is ment for a jet boat. It is running as intended.

Running way to rich.
That's water not gas. It's for a jet boat
Pity those of us who are air breathers. These guys are fouling the planet for their childish "hot rodder" status.
