    Regardless if you like the videos or not ??
    They are definitely well put together.
    Good to see someone with a microphone who actually sounds like he knows what he's talking about.
    To many times on other channels the content has been great.
    But the Interviewing skills ??
    Well, lets just say Very average.
    Great video.
    and Top car too.

    The weak link is the valve train. Think how much easier life would be if the "FreeValve" technology used in the Koenigsegg motor made it into our sport. All it takes is a whole lot of cash! You'd run out of things to do between rounds. My hat's off to Frank and the owner of the car. The sixties muscle cars is what makes guys like us really love the sport. I have a 67 El Camino, but with a 4-link and a whole lot of tire! What's your take on Oliver Rods?

    • @hpa101
      @hpa101  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Cash can't even get you that yet. It pretty much only exists in TH-cam comments, and the dudes Miata who created his own version (without any advantages at this stage, but it's awesome) - Taz.

    the adoption of the exhaust coming out the god-damn fender is the worst thing to hit drag/street racing since shackled up leaf springs.

    Spark plug reading is reality, all the sensors are whispers.

    • @hpa101
      @hpa101  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Think of it like this, sensors are data, just like your spark plugs. You can look at sensor data and have no idea what you are looking at without experience. You can also look at a spark plug and have no idea you are looking at without experience. You can use wrong sensors, you ca try read 40000km old plugs thinking they will help.
      Long story short it isn't this vs that, you want ALL the data, but you can certainly do it wrong for any and all options no matter how analog or digital the data is - Taz.

      Not exactly. It is 4000 capable absolutely but at more like 60 plus psi. At 32? More like 1700-1800.

    • @jtheglin1640

      I think because so much of the build is based off of those designs even though it doesn't conform to them

    dam putting that engine in that car is such a waste. with leaf springs and small tires, you will never get the most from that engine. why not ditch the turbos and save the weight, you will probably still be traction limited.

    • @hpa101
      @hpa101  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Future proofs it a bit, you never know what will happen down the line. To be fair the last engine this used to run split in half, and the car is much faster with this setup, so they're not exactly doing anything terribly wrong here either given they're doing what they want to with their own build and seem to be enjoying it along the way too - Taz.
