Sounds very exotic. Kinda like an older small displacement European v8. Very cool!
Yep exactly what I was going for.
Wondering when you where gonna pop up, what a A Sunday treat!
Great to see your Dad up and about! Car sounds great. Keep up the good work Calvin
Sounds great! Yeah, that break-in period will test your patience. LOL
What a sweet build- love the wheels!
Very nice wheels, I picture the car in black.
Calvin, the Stude looks and sounds great!
Wow what a difference a Y pipe can make!! What a beautiful build!
I wasnt going to say anything when you first fired it up, but im glad you didn't like the exhaust note either
Yeah. It bothered me a lot. Lol
Sounds like a mid-90s NASCAR Cup-car. This is such a great car, one of my top 3 or 4 TH-cam cars ever. Really diggin' the Torque Thrusts
Awesome work Calvin. The Studebaker sounds like a sleeper.
It shouldn’t be making that sound, it’s so wrong in the best way ever
Or….should that be the default sound and the burble be the odd ball?🤯
@@CapablePimentoo. The burble is the way lmao. Maybe an 8 into 1 header so it sounds like something other than blegh like the first exhaust set up. The second exhaust is better by a mile
@@CapablePimentoI think it's the twins after the X pipe if it was a bigger single out the back would change the sound of it even more for the better. Definitely Way better than the first y pipe at the start of the video and sound good.
I love that sound,you did good son!.
Reminds me of a Radial aircraft engine at idle. Great stuff.
Sounds nice! I'll be learning the intricacies of a Haltech ecu in the near future. Saw a picture of the Volvo in "Grassroots Motorsports" re: "what can a bad wreck teach us"...
Great to see you making progress on the Stud.👍
Poor Mom and her ears. 😔
Looking forward to hearing this beast at full tilt.
BTW, I think it sounds a little like a 5.0L Coyote, specially paired with the manual box. Not a bad thing.👌🙂
Keep at it, it'll be totally worth it at the end !
Yeah. It did sound like a 5.0L before the exhaust fix. I think it sounds better now.
@@Calvin-NelsonCalvin i liked the video I wanted to know more about your Dad how he is doing and feel better hi 👋 from # YSW 🇨🇦
Sounds and looks great, wheels look awesome too....
Such a cool build. Respect.
Wiring is the best part, I like it, usually means the build is almost done
To each their own my friend.
Love it GODSPEED GODBLEES AND GOODLUCK
Sweet sound. Wiring looks clean, and practical. Great job, thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
Nice one bud, keep up the great work. ✌🇦🇺
Lark sounds awesome!!!
That exhaust sounds better after the fix. Sounds awesome!
Hell yeah brother that thing gotta b the best sound I heard in a long time great work and content keep it up. Gotta get all the data
That’s awesome, sounds good, now I want 180 degree headers on my 540 chevy
Do it!!
Sounds amazing! Great job!
Sounds amazing!!
Good explanation on the Y pipe deal.
The anticipation of you getting the car together was worth the wait, great set up and always unique. The car has a great look and the sound is going to be a real head turner when completely dialed and broken in, great build as always.
equal length is always te key! sounds awesome now
Great content as always👏🏼 Totally agree with the exhaust!
WoW!! That's a great noise!!!
what a unit
sounds good now, keep moving forward.
Sounds great.
Great to see you back at it. I would love for you and Matt hapel do a project together
Pretty sure Calvin and his dad did a bunch of the suspension reinforcements and the frame ties on Matt's twin turbo mustang
sounds badass, just missing a supercharger lol.
Sounds sick! 🤘
Thanks!
The car sounds great under power. Well done. I love it
Thanks!
Such a beautiful car, so much interesting work! My dad bought a '60 Lark VIII wagon new to replace his '53 Chevy coupe, and had to learn to be delicate with his right foot because it had at least triple the power. Mom's mom bought a '62 Lark sedan (top of the line). So i have been a lifetime Studebaker fan. So cool to see them out & on the road. There are a few parked on driveways near me that need someone to get them running again (including an early Commander with the tacked on quad-headlight pods & a sweet '62 Lark VIII wagon), unfortunately I am not that person, no matter how hard I may dream. Best to you & your beautiful coupe. May your break-in miles be trouble-free, your daily-driving sooth, and here's to some good fast passes when you can drag it.
Studebakers are the best. Thanks so much
Nice job Calvin!
Man its sounds sick af i wanna do 180° headers for my BBC
Do it!!
Sounds much better now indeed
Sounds fantastic man
Good lord 👍👍👍👍👍
Very kool
Fancy headers!!!
Phuuuuuck that sounds good.
that sounds so freaking good
I like X pipes, but the full crossover style, with mufflers basically at the bumper, sounds amazing.
Well! That was well worth the extra effort! The car sounds AWESOME!! Good job, Calvin!!
Rob Dahm seems to LOVE wiring. Perhaps a bottle of Keeps would help? 🤔
Yeah. It's a love hate thing. The results always make it worth the grind. Lol
@@Calvin-Nelson I get ya. Fiddly details are always annoying. FWIW I’d love to work on a drag car. Pity I’m 5000+ miles away. 😂
Looking forward to seeing this ol girl scoot 😊👍🏻
Sounds sick !!
Bringing Studebaker BACK TOO COOL awesome.
What a wonderful sound issuing a buzy force.
That sounds so sick!
Good looking Studewhacker, good to see your dad up and around , those old Volvo's had some thick sheet metal , always reminded me of a shrunk down 40 ford sedan, Subscribed
Dang! That sounds Awesome!
Thanks Big Mike!!
This makes me want to do 180° headers on my boy's LS Mustang.
Sounds a lot like a LeMans spec GT40, lovely!
Holley always seems to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. Their VVT support blows.
Yeah. I hear it's decent, but only if they actually turn it on for you...
Sounds too good to chicken foot all week 😂
Thats a great looking car , good job
The car sounds amazing 💯 ...Calvin one concern the exhaust it's wrapped around the motor.....the sensor's the oil water temperature I guess Thiers a first time for everything and all will be for the better....🙂👍🙏
So far going for a long street drive, the oil temps get to about 205, 210 if I'm getting on the throttle a lot. You want oil temp to be around 212 to bake the water out of it. Oil won't break down until 275.
Such a badass build! Love the exhaust note very unique like the rest of the build.
The car sounds great, and i'm just digging the blue/white (more gray), with the bronze wheels, it just looks fantastic Calvin, and the car has a great stance to be honest.
Thanks!
Incredible
That’s a good looking car
Thanks!
Hell yea!!!
sounds crazy man!
wiring = something YOU NEED TO LEARN !
I know how to do it very well. Just don't enjoy it.
FT600 and be happy, all in one!!!
They're pretty limited from what I see. Yeah they can do VVT, but they're just not very adaptable
Sounds special
Sterling Marlin had a set up like thins of the #4 Kodak Chevy!!!!
Fantastic car!
Headlights cycling. Most older headlight switches have a self resetting circuit breaker built into the switch. The contacts oxidize and can cause flickering.
Well between that and the fact that the entire car had only two fuses in it, I decided to rewire it. It has all brand new stuff now.
love everything about your studebaker but the holly display
Yeah. The gauges behind it work though. It never had an OE tach so I did what I could to make it somewhat original. It is what it is.
@@Calvin-Nelson Thank you for taking the time... i talked to the holly rep about this for us retrogrouches a ways back, he said that he would pass it on to his R&D buddys. round displays in conventional bezels were discussed
Love this car! Looks great and sounds great, can't wait to see it go down the track. Looks like your pops is moving around pretty good too, glad to see that! 🏁
Man what a cool car
good to see you back also your dad its ok ?
ahhh he its there good to see h back on business
Yep. He's getting better and better everyday.
🙏
I also love 180 degree headers. Have you watched David Vizard's [99% of headers/ equal lengths are wrong] vid? Really interesting stuff, made me want to design/ test a sequentially fired eight into one system.
Years back some Ford guys tried these headers. Cool car.
I thought you'd say the solution was a Fueltech.
I’m in the middle of a project myself and for some of the abilities of a controller i needed I went with the gold box mega squirt. With that being said I’m curious why you didn’t go that route as I know you have a lot of experience with Mega Squirt.
The VVT control on the Megasquirt is lacking.
Love silverhawks myself .
LOL. Great car!! Thank you for the video! You sync up at the start of the vid is way off mind you but hey I just pretend it's a foreign movie over dub. LOL.
Thanks. That might be on your end. Sometimes TH-cam does that. Looks fine when I watch it back.
The sleeper of all sleeper cars!
More like “Head phone users….. you are welcome.”
Once again you killed it on building something unique. Though my simple mind is still stuck on how those two Y pipes don’t equal an X😂. Sounds badass, can’t wait to see how it runs after the break in and here it under load like you said. Also I wonder what it would sound like with a boom tube on it.🤔😁
Rowdy!
Sounds great! Crazy how much of a difference removing the y pipe made...
So weird seeing this old machine sounding so good. I hope this becomes a keeper for the entire family. All the best suffering those 500 miles 🙂
I will never sell it. It's my first car.
@@Calvin-Nelson Very good and very wise 🙂
Ah yes. The first version sounded really off, but you got it fixed and it's now how it should be.
The dual standalone (from different brands!) solution looks funky and odd, but it's another way to make things work.
Yeah. I've been there before. Using what I have to the best that I can.
@@Calvin-Nelson Unfortunate when what you intended to do doesn't work, but getting around the barrier to make it happen is a win
@@Calvin-Nelson @edugj23 @Nivlac57'
Calvin You have identified more lacking within the Holley EFI ECU's => thus, more reason to use FuelTech ECU which are far more complete with features, software, documentation, courses, training, direct assistance from engineers as the Owners/developers Anderson Dick, Luis etc. - perhaps also cost too.
The FT definitately will works with the L-83
Certainly all of the needs, features of, with engine, EFI, VVT, numerous sensors, "Flex-Fuel", all electrical components, meters, displays, lighting, etc. are all within the FT ECU-ECM, thus Your entire
You might consider having two oil temperature sensors - one on the pan, one near the oil cooler and similarly with transmission oil/fluid; also multiple sensors to detect, compare engine speed to transmission, drive shaft and wheel speeds too. For those that need, there are also sensor for shock extension, height [to ground] for suspension, travel, lift, etc.
This Studebaker Lark Drag&Drive vehicle look, sounds, seems very good. The balanced elongated "X"-> "Y"-"Y" pipe definitely improves the sound, pulses, 'note' thus improves the exhaust air flow too.
Much continued Health, Healing, Recovery for, with Your Dad, then also with Your "Dueling" Drag&Drive vehicle Team too.
-> For Your help, assistance, information, have just inquired with FuelTech which ECU-ECM will control the L-83, VVT, etc.
The recommendation is their FT-550 or FT-600; provided this comparison chart-> www.fueltech.net/pages/ecu-comparison-chart
-> all {FT-450, -550, -600 +] have "Flex-Fuel" capability too. -> www.fueltech.net/collections/sensors-valves/products/flex-fuel-sensor ; also many other sensors too.
All The Best and Much Success in Your Quest(s), Health, Happiness and Well Being , Sincerely
@@newtonfirefly3584much better Ecu's out there than fueltech.. 😂 everyone watches too much youtube.. maxxecu's make FT look like play toys when it comes to functionality and customisation.
That is sick.
The look from the front still reminds me of an old Mercedes Strich 8 lol
Studebaker and Mercedes worked together during this time period. Studebaker is one of the reasons that Mercedes was able to enter the US market.
@@Calvin-Nelson I had no idea 😀
It's definitely a very cool looking and sounding car.
Sounds great, when i saw the previous episode, the engine looked like a Chevy LT. Curious as to the specs. Headers look awesome especially if you designed it yourself.
Sounds like an Italian bike
First and foremost I love watching you and your skills and it’s really cool that you’re so close to your parents. Again really enjoy the channel‼ But you really should clean your shop some, Sorry!
Yep. It's controlled chaos in the shop. Lol. We've tried a bunch of times to really clean it up, it always gets dirty again so fast.
That thing sounds nasty! I can't wait to see it rip.
Bought the Terminator X after a phone call to Holley tech support to run a 4200 Vortec in a project truck. After awhile away from the phone the Holley tech said VVT would work fine and the only hang up would be switching away from the stock coils to Holley smart coils. So now I'm hearing different on the VVT and have bought and done the smart coils for what? Am I loosing much without the exhaust VVT or can I pin the VVT half way though it's travel am tune it "AS IS"? Another thought had crossed my mind as well.....stock injectors don't show up in V3 software as a part number. Is there a good way to fudge this on Holley?
I seem to remember before calvin used the vvti solenoid that you can clock the cam gears to add in 6. Something degrees of overlap per tooth. So I would try that first. Might need the 4200 guru to chime in and correct me though.
The sound reminds me of the 5.2L Voodoo V8 in the Mustang GT350s, though that one is an actual flat plane not a 180 header on a cross plane, but the sound is still quite similar.
Yep. That's kind of what I was after. Flat plane...
Ok, In a previous vid I said I didn't like the sound of 180 degree headers as opposed to the more normal type. Starting up the Lark and revving it has made a liar of me.
