Follow along as I figure out the finer details of making my car run faster and various other automotive adventures I may get myself into.
SWAPPING PLUGS ON MY TURBO MAVERICK
Today I'm doing some much needed maintenance that involves changing the sparkplugs as well as header gaskets. I have had the same set of plugs in the motor for about a year and a half and boy were they pretty tired looking.

In this installment I go over some of the basic principals and tools required to gap piston rings and install the rods and pistons into your block. I shot for .026" on the top ring and .028" on my second ring. i achieved a .0017" clearance on my rod bearings and now I'm hoping to move forward with some other parts to start sealing off the engine.

Boooooost ! 👍👍👍

Thanks for Watching.
Good video! Omar seems like the right guy for this job!
I think so too!
Another great video!
Thanks again!
👍
👍👍👍🏁
Sick! Nice video 🦾
Enjoyed the video Jorge!
Thanks for watching Steve.
That was a good one Jorge! Congratulations on that 12.84, that’s impressive, nicely done :-)
Thanks Steve, it was good seeing you out there. Hopefully I'll make my way out to the track again soon.
64. Comment #1 Your car sounds great! 😁
Thank you and thanks for watching.
Always enjoy the videos! It was good to see Robbie at work and get a little update on his current projects. I know we are all looking forward to some cooler weather!!
Yeah this heat doesn't seem to want to go away.
Nice job, the struggle is real! See you Saturday in Tucson!
It's been a hectic couple of weeks getting things buttoned up.
Another great video Jorge! I’m about a week behind watching it 🤷♂️ I always enjoy the details you provide and find it refreshing that you aren’t afraid to show the things that don’t go as planned (like the last seat hole) all of us can learn through these examples, keep up the great work!
All that and we don’t even get to see the finished product????
How much did it cost ?
It was a couple grand, but man is it worth every penny. I got the trans built by them and I got one of their nicer torque converters.
Another great video Jorge! I look forward to seeing you in a few weeks in Tucson :-)
I'm excited to run the car again. Thanks for watching Steve.
NOT a good philosophy to just check 1, its better to check EVERY one than spin a bearing! In all honesty the best way is to use a micrometer for the crank then torque down the main caps then take that clearance, that will give you a more accurate clearance # but yes plasti-gauge works.
Great video Jorge! I look forward to seeing what you find out with the measurements on the crank/bearings…looks like it’s coming together!
I had no idea that had no-prep drag racing at Wild Horse 🤷♂️ Is it 1/8th mile?
Yes, it's only 1/8th mile. You should go check it out when you have a chance, it's definitely impressive to see how well some of those cars can get down on an unprepped surface.
Love the choice of color! Keep up the good work young man!
Thank you for watching.
Another great video Jorge! Thanks for taking the time to make and post these! I always learn something new :-)
Thanks for watching.
I got 11.49 at 125 outta my Mav there.. good luck
I'm hoping to go high 11's with the current setup on slicks hopefully. Then it's turbo time.
Do you have a link for the stone?

Enjoyed it Jorge! Thanks :-). The little “tang” on the main bearings (and rod bearings) also keeps them from rotating with the crank
👍
Great video Jorge! I liked the explanation of the relay, and the panel you built is super clean and will be very functional!
Thanks Steve, this one took some time to get just right.
Это - чо??? 😂
Cool. 26 minutes of me struggling
Welcome to my life.
Really enjoyed the video Jorge! Great job. I especially liked the walkthrough on the various settings on your laptop computer. I learned a few things from that :-)
Glad you enjoyed it!
The heat is real... Vegas has been breaking heat records! Come on Fall weather.
I know man, I can't wait for it to cool off.
Some grade A wiring there
I only make the finest spaghetti.
Great video homie!
Appreciate it
Enjoyed the video! Keep up the good work :-)
Glad you enjoyed it!
Hey nice job on this video! I watched it twice :-) Keep up the great work!
Thanks for watching Steve.
Great job, young buck! Love seeing youngsters keeping the old cars and sport alive! New sub 👏🏾😁
I kept yelling at the phone, rev it out in first gear and you’ll go mid 12’s! Then you did and look what happened! Get that 60’ down next and you’ll be knocking on 11’s 🤙🏼
Lol me too man I was like plz rev out 1st
Congrats! Next up. 11's
Congrats! What is your combo? Car looks pretty light. Any ideas how much it weighs? I was going to say your 1 to 2 shift seems very early. Could probably benefit from a higher stall or gear ratio change.
The car weighs about 2600 pounds I have the combo and other details in my earlier videos on this channel.
That's awesome! Congratulations!
Looks like a great time! Thanks for posting the video, it was fun to follow along!
Glad you enjoyed it!
It was an absolute pleasure to meet you! That thing is sick and I’m glad it held together! Can’t wait to see some twin turbskies on that rig!
I have a single one on the way, but twins would look cool....
I just assumed with how slick your exhuast is it was pre planned for twins. I mean, more is better 😁
Enjoyed the video! I can relate to installing those Caltracs, bet they took care of the wheel hop - 😊
Yes they did, I figured the change would be subtle but man did it make quite a difference
My mom used to have one just like that
Looks good man!!
Such a bad ass car. 💪🏻
New subscriber. Keep it coming. There's a ton of us that are always turning wrenches late bu ourselves when everyone else is already in bed
Thanks for the sub!
Nice video Jorge! Nothing like putting an engine in by yourself self! Great job. It’s cool that you acknowledged the help/support from Hughes, we typically don’t do these things without a lot of help - but sometimes folks forget to thanks the ones that help :-)
Always!
A Chevy engine in a ford car?? Hell yeah
Enjoyed the video Jorge! Good technical content, a good length I thought to cover the fuel upgrades. I’ll enjoy following along. Congratulations on your first video!
