- Ok, so this week I’ve been called on to fix 2 different carburetors that “needed tuned”
90% of the time, the biggest issue with performance cammed Small Block Chevys is improperly tuned IGNITION SYSTEMS.
Well, let’s just say I found 2 perfect examples this week, but the Trans Am was an EXTREME situation that made for an EPIC TEST DRIVE when the customer came to pick up his beloved Fully Restored “Restomod”1976 Pontiac Trans Am.
This is what it's all about. Car guys helping car guys. Loved his reaction and he was genuinely grateful for you. Please don't stop making these great videos.
The expression on his face the first time he dropped it into first was priceless!! Great job Bill! Just goes to show no matter how old you are the need for SPEED never gets old! PEACE ✌️
Thought along the same lines, I must be getting older because I got more joy out of seeing his joy then I do sometimes for myself accomplishing something.
Dude with the trans am was great. LOL
That man was blown away feeling his car actually run right. Those are some priceless moments in life when ya feel like ya did it right. Cheers Bill 🍻
Man, when you got finished with that T/A it sounded phenomenal. Beautiful car.
“That’s what I’m talking about!” 😂 You made that man’s whole year Bill. The joy on his face and the excitement, he was over the moon. 👍✌️
So awesome to see all these companies collaborating with you all
Because Bill is the best at what he does he's just like my dad when it comes to this stuff that TA gets wild
That was awesome watching that guy enjoy his car.
Damn, A 500 hp classic T/A tuned by the Old Man.....the owner can spend the extra cash on tires which he'll no doubt need soon I bet LOL. That's just good stuff right there.
You guys are a ray of sunshine in a dark world...God bless the SRC family 🙏
Third shift here Bill, thanks for thinking of us!!! Great video as usual👏👏👏
Man, I learned so much from this video because that badass Trans Am. Your knowledge in tuning a car is so useful Bill. Keep the education coming brother 👍🏼
thats got to be the best feeling to be able to make a person that happy when you fix their ride like that . absolutely awesome never stop doing what you do may you and the family an friends always stay blessed you all are so awesome .
Holy cow that was a great vid . I could totally see the guy with the trans am doing doughnuts , Rockford file reverse slide turn around thing , and burnouts for days !! He was like a little kid with a new RC car in a gravel driveway lol … Bob “ YUP “ lol . Great job everyone as always !!
That trans am is absolutely gorgeous, but glad to see him getting to enjoy it finally after all that time and work. Keep up the great work guys.
I couldn't decide whether you were nervous laughing while he was driving or you were just excited! Cool video Bill!
That TA is so nice. Getting it tuned to run right and seeing the customers reaction is priceless. You can imagine how much it cost to build the car and not having it run 100% has to be depressing so good on you Bill for getting it going.
Lol one of the best pieces of advice I've ever gotten from an old school car builder was "90% of carburetor problems, arent"
That foliage tho !!! I've dreamed of driving down roads like that...!! Enjoy seeing yall put a smile on someone's face !!!
Another MSD 6AL box gone bad? I feel like you and us have both been through this process a time or three already! Kudos to you spreading around some carb wizardry and getting a beautiful Bird figured out!
As a Pontiac guy YES we are more upset about the 400 SBC versus a 400 Pontiac! ;)
Mr. Bill love how even though your busy you still make time to help others staying true.
That Trans Am looks awesome, the black/gold Bandit look is nice, but I've always thought the silver design was the best appearing. Great to see how happy the guy was getting to drive his car trouble free, great job!
Great to see another video of a great family and friends. Thanks Bill
So much goodness going on at SRC and old man's garage go team go awesome stuff Bill thank you
Good stuff, the 427 is getting badder by the minute. Can’t wait for the s10 the changes he made was needed for as fast as he is fixing to go. I think Billy is going to be the chees-nit of a father. Bob seems to be enjoying his work now. Nice shop!!! Good day Bill
😅😊
Great content Bill,the trans am was priceless on his face glad the old man to the rescue.
the Firebird guy's reaction is PRICELESS!!! You could see the hope in his eyes, when he cranked it up, but then the satisfaction was CLEARLY evident when he hammered it!! THEN the "one more time, ONE MORE TIME!" had me laughing and smiling and happy for him! GREAT JOB! on a great and gorgeous car!!!
That’s so cool you got the Ford pickup engine and TA figured out.
Nothing beats the smiles you put on people’s faces
Bill your one liners and your funny edits crack me up 😂 Working harder than a one armed wall paper hanger 😂😂😂😂😂 Thank you for your videos and laughs. Brandon from TN.
One of my favorite channels on TH-cam. Great people!
That TransAm is absolutely beautiful. I love those cars.
I love it. Old guys having fun. Uncle Bob is looking good also.
Seeing his reaction was amazing. Thanks for brining smiles bill
"You happy with that?"
"OH YEAH!" 😂👍
Love it when you drop a late night video I can listen to when I make my 6 hr drive from mn to wi to go to work!!!
Love the channel! What better to do @ 1 am!!! It never gets old watchin the whole crews videos. Wished there was 10 videos a day!
Possibly one of the best videos ever😂love when you help with other peoples projects
I love 💕 how cool 😎 Machine Shop Bob is and how his whole face lights up with excitement when you visit his shop! He really is a AWESOME 👍 MECHANIC and good person. The Old Man knows how to pick good people to be in his life, WAY TO GO! The people in your life ARE VERY SPECIAL, so please cherish them. The people are so cool there that it makes ME want to move to that area. Anyway, thanks for the video 📸.
That guy was awesome, so happy his car was finally working properly. 👊
That trans am woke that man’s soul up.. he couldn’t stop smiling after that first taste ..Beautiful car!..
I don’t know about everyone else, but I’m missing your daily videos. I know that you’re a busy man. In the same sentence you had spoiled us. Would really like to see more on the new shop over the years I’ve felt like you’ve family is part of mine. As far as I’m concerned,nothing better than old man’s garage and coffee to start my day off with the coolest family family on the internet. Thank you for all the laughs and knowledge you have provided for us all. 👊🏻
When the owner of the Trans AM said it doesn't have any oomph to it. My first thought was, you are in for a helluva suprise Sir! 😂😂
That was a bad TA , that was the first car which started my love for sick rides. Then the GT 5.0 and so on. His expression when he cracked the throttle, priceless. Fire vid Bill. As always!!
So many of these "carb" issues are classic. A lot of the younger folks haven't had the experience of tuning an engine properly at all. Good on the old man for helping the newer folks understand the issues that are the real problem.
Younger? Dude was like 70....
I'm young and don't have "carb" problems...
I maybe used the wrong phrase to suite everyone when I said younger folks. It was meant in a broader sense in relation to most people in general. Not a lot of folks know the proper way to tune and read an engine.
The test drive and the music and editing 10/10 you've gotten pretty good at this video thing ol man!
A heat shield or wrapped headers will help the starter.
I’ve never laughed so hard in a while. He had do one more time in that TA ! Greatness
Your videos always bring the happiness to my day that I need Bill!! Thanks again for everything your family does!!
Man, I've been procrastinating locking out my timing for awhile now, guess this answers my questions about doing it on a street car. May just do it this weekend, I'm sick of the shitty, stinky idle.
I have a question, just one I promise! Locked the timing and it retards timing while being revved, like 6deg. So, do I set the timing till it stops retarding, and just live with more idle timing or just set it at idle and live with the loss of timing?
Or, just go with a crank trigger and cal it good🤷
The Man said “Let’s do that again”. Oh how that was priceless!!! He will never forget what you did for him. There is no telling how many people he has showed that video too.
The coolest thing I've seen, is a guy build a car and then rip it! Most of the time once they are built then they get babied. Ol boy was ripping passes. That was awesome! Godspeed ol' boy.
Great job Brother You made that guys day. Saving lives One carbureted old school at a time!!😁👍🏼🏁
Making people smile one tune up at a time
One more time !!! 🤣🤣. The joy you brought to this man is priceless .
You definitely got him reliving his younger life when he owned his first trans am.
Bill , you did a Great job tuning that Trans Am! The owner's reaction was priceless! Another great video! Have fun this weekend and stay safe!👍
Best way to start by morning... An old man's garage video! Glad to see all the growth and success you guys are having! Love all y'all's channels keep up the good work!
The Jegs Sales Associate IS so AWESOME 👍, I wish that I could buy parts from that COOL DUDE 😎.
Videos like this are awesome. Just two guys giggling like little kids. Hell it made me crack up!
Not many things better than watching old timers reminiscing banging gears.. therapeutic.
The owner of the TA is going to have a blast with that car.Let the shenanigans begin!

Always welcome in South Carolina Bill. Bring that feller with the TA to! Your right, that's one nice ride.
Firebird dude is hilarious, and those facial expressions😅 Great video Bill and great job waking that Firebird up real nice. 😎. We all Adore Ms. Vicki
Atta boy !!!!! Smiles are contagious, your a good man William!
This made me giggle just like you!! 😂 He got transported back to his 1st T/A when you had him roll in from low.......just one more time!!🤣👌🏾
The Trans-Am guy, that was super to see his joy. Good thing y'all have all the road track on private property for testing.
You could be in ful time business helping people dial in their engines, so many kids get discouraged when things go wrong, and it sours their experience, your doing great work sir Bill... your the Man
Bless you sir
Doing gods work
You made that guy feel luke a teenager again was awesome to see
Loved every minute of it as always!!
Great stuff Sr. Love watching you sort these cars out
Definitely doing great things i love how your giving back staying true to yourself and fans ..
Thank you Jesus for thos Family!!!
Such a pretty car. My 81 z is the same color silver and black. And Bill I hate when people tell me the carb is bad. That’s just where they hear the skip pop. I also like being the hero of the day. That smile when someone opens it up and it fires the tires/no better feeling!!! Good stuff Bill
MY FAVORITE GARAGE CHANNEL !
😁👍🏼
Most carb problems, have always been ignition problems. You Sir understand the PV better than the current Holley people.
Great video. You guys so down to earth and so giving . If I remember right you have a pellet stove . If you ever need anything for it you let me know me and my daughter work and install them we would be happy to give back to you and your family !!!
Loved this video. Love that y’all are giving back to the racing hot rod community. Long live gear head nation
That 3rd gen Camaro in uncle bobs garage is my dream car. One of these days I will have one. Been looking at them cars all my 39 yrs. And the love grows stronger every time i see one. Awesome video and the editing is amazing. You definitely have a voice for it
That T/A is beautiful I love a nice build
Can’t wait to see the new shop all done hopefully next video we can a big shop update and how everything is going
Glad to see what a great job you did on the Firebird. Someday I’m going to make it to the Jax Wax cruise. Maybe in the spring
Him driving that transam the way it should just put a huge smile on my face…no matter how old ya get that shit never gets old! I wonder if the cam in it would like a single plane or maybe a taller dual?? Anyway that’s badass !! Glad to see you got em right!
Well done Bill that ol boy was happy as a pig in you know what, that’s awesome you were able to help him out he’ll be forever thankful
Absolutely love the content Bill. Thank you
I’ve been watching Billy’s channel from the start and you when you started a channel and I’d have to say. I couldn’t be happier for a better dad. I hope I could be as good with my son.you guys built an empire. A car guys dream.
Thank you bill
Hell yeah, glad to see the owner driving that car how it deserves!
Wow bill bless that guy with that good sounding 400 small block
That T/A turned into a ripper!
The South Park addition was hilarious 😂
I love the channel still watching the video. Just wanted to say while it was on my mind it would be nice for you to do a drawing and the lucky winner could send you their motor and have Bob build it. It’s a little different spin on the giveaway motor that would allow the winner to have some input on what he’d like to see realistically, of course just a thought.
Another great video, it’s really cool how much time and effort you all put into these giveaways. Thanks for all you do!
Bill the fact that your willingness to help people only proves my point,the young man with the Ford PU and the the man with the awesome TA are probably thinking your there hero and with your knowledge I understand why. That's going to make a awesome giveaway with everyone coming on board I'm looking forward to seeing that 427 dialed in and making passes. Thanks for what you do for the sport and the great entertainment. God bless and as always be safe.
