Hoping this flathead V8 engine fires... if it does we're using it in the 1934 Plymouth🤞

- Jolene wants to be able to race this 1934 Plymouth coupe at Pinetree Jamboree this fall so that means it needs a flathead. It just so happens that we have one with a 5 speed transmission that supposedly ran really good. The chassis has already been modified for a flathead so it's the perfect storm. Once we get it mounted, Nate is going to see if it will fire 🤞

The rotor, its sitting on the frame .
This is so funny . I am yelling at the tv. The rotor button is still laying on the frame .
im yelling with you trying to reach into the computer lololol
This had to be the most frustrating episode I’ve watched lol
one of them days LOL
Mr Peter perfect 😇
Lol same here they adjusted points totally forgot to put back the rotor
I would be willing to bet that forgetting to put the rotor back in has probably happen a million or more times over the years. I put mine in my shirt pocket then spent about an hour looking for it. My buddy was laughing his ass off, as he saw me do it. But I learned something, a whole new combination of swear words, and also a smoke and a beer will make all things right again.
You ain’t lyin…..👍
All the bracket does is hold the coil, it does not have to be grounded. to adjust the points, you roll the engine up to where the distributer cam opens the points and use a feeler gauge to set the gap to spec.
If you would just barely loosen the scrrews to the points you can put the screwdriver in the adjustment slot and set the points. Then tighten the screws. I have never seen anyone have so much trouble setting the points. I love this. I really needed a laugh today.
Rotor button you forgot lol
ALSO COIL PROBLEM HAD TO REPLACE IT
Old retired mechanic here, damn you guys are making a big deal out of a set of points can't wail until you set the dwell. rock on
Dwell angle?
they wont know what you are talking about
Rotor in ? Nope!
If they are happy then it's cool.@@southernhellstorm6634
I’d check that resistor too while it’s in ya face
I truly can't believe what I am watching, I get messing up but the rotor is something you never forget
I love a good comedy skit. Thanks, guys!
Coils dont have a ground, the reason it not getting power to the negitive side is the point are closed
There is a spot right there for a small screwdriver to move the points with the point screws snug. You don't have to keep loosening both point screws all the way.
15 thousands is the setting. There is a slot on the points base that a flat head screw driver will fit in and slowly move the points to set them.
That was hilarious the wizard made the rotor disappear
on the points the hole in the plate near the top screw has a small notch and the point plate has a small notch for adjusting the gap with a screwdriver leave the bottom screw tight loosen the top screw. screw driver will fit the two notches in that hole to move points to where you need them then tighten screw . easy to adjust that way . use the front crank bolt to turn engine so the points are at max open so no need to turn advancement plate please let the wizard read this for future adjustments
all the channels i have seen people struggle with points you are the only one i shared this proper way to adjust points
Great video! Love to watch Chad and Nate working together, and wouldn’t be possible, without Jolene behind the camera to capture it all for our enjoyment!
If you all had a dwell / angle /. tachometer you could get the perfect opening of the points by cranking the engine and adjusting the points until you got it to 30 degrees dwell on the dwell / angle /. tachometer gauge.
That setting of 30 degrees of dwell works perfectly for any V-8 engine.
How about putting the rotor in the distributor?
Thank goodness for the wizard Nathan. Nothing better than a flat head engine in a car like that.
Hey Team Hiltz, a boat is a whole in the water into which you throw money! Chad the engine mount holes were probably small for racing most drag racers bolt them up metal to metal without a cushion but you did a nice job cutting them out for the cushions. That is the perfect vintage drag car for Jolene she will absolutely love racing it! Nate nice job getting it running that is a nice motor it ran quiet from the minute it started! Jolene great work as always! Jolene that will make the perfect vintage drag car for you with more get up and go than your other one! Fina way to be on guard duty, such a good girl!
Wizard my arse.
Jolene the rotor is on the frame,he took it out of the distributor and didn't put it back in
I was yelling “Put the rotor on”
Chad looks lost without a grinder!!😂😂😂😂
Not really an engine man
An old flathead would be pretty cool in there
Love the sound of a flathead V8. I restored a 1940 Ford Delux Coupe when I was 16. The motor was too far gone so I scored a Merc AB block. Swapped the rear end for a 69 Cougar. Was really cool. Wish I would have stopped there. I ended up swapping in an all new 1970 z28 motor and put a 4duce Offy manifold on it. Was a bit too much power for that car. Great times though!
Gotta say as a motor man Chad is BAD😂 . This was actually hard to watch. 😮
The part that was really hilarious was when Chad seemed to be trying to give Nate some tips on setting those points ! 😂😂😂
This will be Great 👍 Hope the Flathead fires up 👍 Go for it Team Hiltz 👁 🐅 👌
It fired and ran well
Chad would please put a set of #5 darkness glasses on when plasma cutting. I'm 64 and have lost most of my red vision because of doing exactly that. Love watching you work. Wish I could buy some of your energy.
You got a heck of a team Chad. Great Job and Really Enjoy the Builds. I enjoy seeing a few of them finished and taken to the next level also. nice to see a variety of things going on to keep the channel fresh and interesting.
We don't need a 10 minute speech about how you're going to build (correction, half build) this car as cheaply as possible, we already know you're going to do that.
My advice is that once you get that other shop open next door you can do you mechanical work in that shop only. So you won't contaminate the Auto Body Shop especially the Paint Booth with oil and its residues which causes fish eyes and such in your paint jobs. The dryer that Auto Body Shop is the better it is for future work, good Auto Body Shops try never to mix Mechanical Work with Auto Body in the same Area. Just makes things better in the long run and saves a lot of grief when it's all said and done. That was hilarious Nate, lol the gap is .014 to .016 lots of folks like to split it down the middle. .015 of an inch.
This wascone of the best videos lately. Nathan, you're not a wizard, your a dental surgeon !
Chad the nurse.
Would have been good to see Joelene assist, would have been funny and better looking nurse.
But great humour.
Laid up at moment and every morning I tune in from New Zealand.
(Next door to Australia ).
Would be great to see you visit our country too next time you're in Australia.
There is a great motoring scene here too, influenced by Australia and U.S.A mainly but Japan and Europe too. Many British cars here as well.
I really love your team and how you guys work together.
Keep it going.
And I love your ZRX Kawasaki. I had one great bikes.
Would love to visit and sweep the floors for a week and work with Doug.
In our Maori,(NZ Indigenous) language.
Aroha, which means mich love.
Keep grinding Chad.
Hey guys give them a break! We've all done something like this but thankfully nobody was videoing! This is why you check spark at the coil wire not a plug wire. They are not understanding what the wire does that comes from the points, it creates a ground to the coil everytime the points close. they were looking for ground while the points were open. Points are fairly simple, when I started wrenching in 1969 that is all there was. I probably installed 2000 sets.
Even if points look good, I always sand them and clean them so I don’t have to do it twice. Also the tiniest amount of grease on the breaker lobes is a necessity to keep your points from closing up on you. Do it now and you won’t have to touch it for 20,000 miles
One of the most fun shows I’ve watched in a while, march on guys. Thanks Jolene.
She runs! Wooowhoo! This is going to be great. Forgetting the rotor haha, no worries because everyone does something silly once in a while.
There should be a soft naked wire that goes from the distributors case to the Movable points plate. If not, it will be relying on the vacuum advance or rod for its ground or the fact that it’s around the center pillar of the distributor. They will run without the ground wire but the spark will be intermittent sometimes
Misplacing the rotor is the least of the mistakes, here. This is just hard to watch.
Then don't, move on to some other content.
BadChad that little ol coupe that's built by Hiltz from NS,CANADA. It needs to be made a 10 by you all it can and should be a STATEMENT build brother that's a great bones car and you was very lucky to have found it a little .oney spent BadChad Sweet Jolene on this car you have to look at it as a investment which this Plymouth Coupe is
just a note for everyone never use flammable spray cleaner like carb cleaner to clean the distributor cap or points one spark can cause a fire inside the cap
put the rotor button back in nate
Never finishes anything
I was telling you that the rotor was not in the distributer but you could not seem to hear me. I have done similar things at times during my 81years. Just changed the water pump on my 47 Plymouth , not as quick as I use to do things but still do them.
1:13:50 a fuel leak and I don't see a fire extinguisher anywhere in sight.
I see old style fire extinguishers, patting down with hands and rags and failing that running around in circles screaming while alight.
.You get a D- in points adjustment !
Points are open, role the motor while the test light in touching the coil.
The engine sounds cool, nice job Nathan.👍
If you're going to race that car make sure you put some rear motor mounts on the engine. Also new universals and things of that sort going to the rear end make sure it is up to par for racing in the Driveline
Man I wasn't shouting but laughing been there done that with the rotor button .....
I think the condenser in the distributor might be bad and or the router bug could have a hole burnt through the tab? I've had a lot of router buds with holes in the top of the tab. Either way thank you for what you do. Love your channel. I forgot to say hello Bad Chad Miss Jolene and Fina and crew
"The struggle of the Day"..all done, great moment in any build. From a sunny England.
Points are not that hard to adjust,turn over the engine by hand from the crank till the points are on the high lobe,then loosen the bottom screw and as you loosen the top screw there is a slot cut out for a screw driver ,open till the Guage you want and tighten the screw,this all should take about 1 minute
Ignition coil doesn’t need ground
Nate you are the wizard. Embrace it buddy. You are the man. We all have our moments of forgetting things but thats no big deal. And please dont feel pressured when on camera you do what you have to do. Thats why alot of us love this channel is because its shows the real. Awesome job guys
I learned a long time ago that you rotate the engine until the points open then check the gap.
Oh.
My God, you're killing me the friggin rotor on the frame.Dude you won't have fire without it.Hello hello
Nathan knows his stuff!!!! Awesome 😎
I'm sittin' here yelling at my phone; "You didn't put the rotor in!!!". But we've all done it. God bless and have a wonderful day. It's a matchbook cover. I believe, .017. or .018. 55:10
I was dieing when Nathan forgot the rotor.. thanks for the laughs. Much appreciated.
I'm liking this build.
A Chrysler straight six? It took five of them ganged together to move a Sherman tank!
How about a Dodge, Plymouth, Chrysler inline 6 then
Interesting
Another fantastic build! Keep kickin' ass brother Chad & Queen Jolene! ❤💪🏼🐻
Put the rotor back on the dist.
As far as the car goes... It has the look, it has the engine, it is a rare plymouth/dodge I say leave it as she looks, or maybe a chop and channel and call it sweet! It don't need to be different from others. And I'm sure everyone will love watching the content. What ya say Joline and Chaddy?
Love the flathead motor for this build.
Great job on getting that flat head fired up Guys 👍
Best laugh I've had in a long time. We could see the rotor on the front of the nerf and you guys trying to start it. Wanted to call but no way. Good luck. Lower the motor in the frame will fit better for transmission.
Hello all! And to Jolene's family as well! Love watching Nathan at it, nice to see Chad humorous and happy! Good job Jolene and woof to you Fina girl!
Love the sound of a flat head. Great choice.
Cool engine choice...
✌️😎
love those fuzzy tires!
It's alive and sound great 👍
Wow. Great. Sounding. Engine. It. Fits. The. Frame. Hope. Drive shaft lines. Up. ❤❤❤❤
Great sound!
Damn...sounds good 👍
The rotor button wizard
I really hope this one is done much safer than the last race car but either way this is going to be one badass ride and Jolene in the driver's seat, pure magic.
nat, you got to get away from chad!
put the rotor cap on. the coil will not show juice until it rotates on the hot side when the points open
Shut up with that rotor, it's not going to be started today
That will make Jolene a good race car chad😊😊😊😊
Stick a foam coffee cup on the trans tail shaft works perfectly
Avec Bad , tout parait si simple ...OK Cool Ça marche , congrest ...A+
Good job nate,well done
SUPER WORK there WIZZARD!
I've been doing this shit for too long turn it to the points open don't touch it turn it to the points open then set the Gap and then put the rotor button on it and put the fucking distributor cap back on
Moving forward fast folks! PINE TREE racer coming right up!!!
Flathead is a proper addition!👍🏾
Should turn the crank until the points open then adjust. It's called a rotor arm, not button buy the way. Blind leading the blind
AWESOME!
Flatheads rule! Good job Chad and Nathan!
Little bit of offset in a driveshaft is a good thing, because it keeps the needles moving and not wearing in the same spot. But a drastic angle like some of the four-wheel-drive truck I see is an invitation for the premature failure.
Such a cool team, best thing has been able to laugh at yourself, on mishaps. Bad Chad team are the best.....love love it...
brother, you are connecting it directly to the switch, if you did not disconnect the positive cable from the coil, it heats up and does not give you spark
Nice job on the backend
I cant believe this..Nate..you are adjusting the wrong end. See that little slot and hole? Thats where the screwdriver goes after you snug up the screw. .015" and lock her down baby
Very Nice Nate and Chad Sounds great Good video Jolene
Turn the engine and that test light will blink on the distributor side of coil
always good ... and always improving camera work thanks J
7:50 Love the tires, hope you got a good price on them.
WOW FINALY THE ENGINE IS RUNNING YAY YAY GREAT JOB NATE, & WITH HELP FRM BAD CHAD, THAT JOLE FOR VIDEO & TEXTS FOE DEAF PEOPLE I ENJOYED IT
