Loved the Rolling Thunder series. This was my favourite build.
Off topic I know but since there is no “jesus of Bethlehem”, he does not exist, this is for all of those who worship this “jesus of NAZARETH”, who says, HIMSELF, he is the "son of DAVID" (Revelation 22:16)
Here's your Savior, Who they REALLY Crucified for your sins
Yad He Vav He is what Moshe wrote in the Dead Sea Scrolls (Paleo Hebrew/Aramaic)
Here's what they mean:
Yad "Hand", He "Breath", Vav "Nail", He "Breath"
As YaH's Hand Forms/Creates and His Breath brought forth LIFE (Adamu) and the "Nail" through YaH's "Hand", that whosoever shall call YaH Savior and call upon YaH's Name, His "Breath" will bring forth LIFE (Salvation)
From the Isaiah Scroll (Dead Sea Scrolls)
Isaiah 42:8
"I am YaH; that is my Name! I will not yield my glory to another or my praise to idols.
Isaiah 43:11
I, I am YAH, and there is no other Savior but Me.
Isaiah 45:5
I am YaH, and there is NONE ELSE.

My car has custom speed holes made by mother nature.
Shedding weight with every bump
@@vacantlight4959 and salty winter
Lol
Mine has shot gun holes
People from midwest
This project is on my all time short list of favorite jobs that came out of Powernation's garage. Outstanding.
SPEED HOLES? That's what they called an old girlfriend of mine.
God damn! We must have been dating the same girl! lol
Maybe I'll add some speed holes to the ol' flandersmobile.
They should have drilled lightening holes in the part Ford had as well...

OK I'm ready to buy a Mazda once you get it finished! Love the project! Perfect build thus far!
Love the mod motor stuff!!!! Great work, Keep it coming!!!
Enjoyed this segment immensely.
The plates for boxing the frame in should have it's "speed hole" punched in, which creates lips all around the edges. This adds a large amount of stiffness to the plates, while also keeping the weight down. Plus, the insides of the frame should have been clean of rust and coated with weld-through primer.
They should have sandblasted and painted the frame before starting to assemble stuff on it.
Maybe they wanted to be sure there was a frame to add the other metal to ? 😜
that’s gone be a badass ford f’n ranger
Love to see this drivetrain in a 1966 to 1970 Ranchero.
Tuned in. Excited to see this one
Like you sead. You can still run lines in the frame rail with those holes. Good job guys.
I've seen a lot of boxed frames.
Not very many with access holes. You would think they all would be done that way.makes perfect sence. And it does not take away strength at least none you can measure.
Greaaaaat video
Keep em coming.
If you have a nice engine in a nice truck, the frame needs to match
Our ranger chassis here in sa are all boxed it from the factory.... Perfect for v8 swaps
Will the ‘speed holes’ in the frame rails trap dirt and moisture, then rust out fast?
If they don't put drain holes and coat the frame probably.
I was thinking the same thing. Just a partial speed hole at the low point of the frame should allow the frame to shed build-up.
They don't care. That truck is already in their rear view mirror.
The speed holes don't matter when you don't take the rust off the frame to begin with. I would have cleaned the frame off and painted it with weld-through primer before boxing it, then primed all the bare metal again. They might still do that, but it seems like they're working backwards. I would also just have notched the frame for the headers, you're already doing frame work.
You’re making way to much sense for this show. Lol
On torque to yeild fastners, you can get a digital level that is zero able, klein has a great one for about $40. Just get tension on your ratchet, have the level on the handle in the same plane as the ratchet swing, zero the level and sendit 🤙🏽
Am I the only one bothered by all that rust on the frame? They're doing so much work on that frame and not getting rid of the rust. Media blast that shit and powder coat it.
You clearly don't live up north, that frame looks perfectly fine. Surface rust is inevitable anything over 5 years old has it and it doesn't really matter, it's an issue when it starts rotting through.
The rust isnt that bad, but it does bother me that it doesn't match the rest of the truck
I'm guessing they'll blow it all apart and powder coat the frame before final assembly.
I clearly don't live up north either, but why not clean it up and do like you said? Because it's a TV show, not reality, and these guys don't care.
Needs another tube at the end of the frame running cross-car to increase torsional rigidity.
Dr M I was thinking the same thing. They lost quite a bit getting rid of that spare tire mount.
@@TheMattc999 I haven't seen the result yet, so maybe they caught it and addressed it! Doesn't have to be a big tube either... thin wall stuff would do just fine.
The stainless tank, when mounted properly will reinforce some ridgity but they do seem to make lots of short cuts to make a faster build & video
@@TheMattc999 Yeah, if you really want regidity, always triangulate...
have a shop full of tools except scissors to cut a piece of cardboard.
Did he say Simpsons speed holes? 😂
Damn that band saw guide was set HIGH
Hell yeah pretty much 03-04 cobra drivetrain & motor gonna be badass 👍
Imagine all that in a regular cab ranger?you would boil the tires off just trying to park
Nice video 👍
Can't get too crazy with a TKO six
But that's on you man
Congratulations on 500k subscribers
Congrats on 500k subs, guys!
Great stuff.....Thanks guy's...!
Lovin Trucks!
Boxing in a frame is fine, speed holes are fine but you want some drain holes in the low points or water can pool up inside the frame rails and rust them from the inside out. This is why most factory frame rails are C channel instead of being fully boxed. Its cheaper to do fairly strong and allows water to escape freely so they dont rust out as fast.
The Don well how crappy those welds looked, I’m sure there are plenty of drain holes.
This is making me want an old ranger
That 4.9 engine looks a lot better then it did.
Nice plasma table but no razor knife
All those tools and shop paraphernalia and no box cutter?
NOBODY shows the step of cleaning the friction surfaces on brakes or flywheels!!!! It's a small detail but thank you for leaving it in haha
You should have put all of that stuff into that black CVPI.
Does this truck still exist. Or did the power block crush it?
Got a little ‘98 ranger begging for a V8 now.
no indexing the bell housing needed huh? i know quicktime works that in already, but aren't you supposed to check anyway?
They definitely should have painted that frame
cool
I'd love to do this to my 51 F1.
How to measure angles: OWN A SPARE STEERING WHEEL
he literally said a piece of cardboard could also be used
1:08 Simpson Speed Holes??? Pontiac beat them to the punch way back in the 1960's. Chassis with those holes were found on the LeMans and GTO's, (maybe even a few other cars in their line) and it was called a "Swiss cheese frame" for the same obvious reasons.
Spoiler alert the truck only made 520 rwhp with a 550 whp tune in it as well done by DBR performance here in tn hell they could push 900 rwhp but it's a track truck but still all that potential. U can look this truck up on youtube and watch them tune it do burnouts and go to track if u wanna skip the build
I agree, “WHY” do all this work, and not clean the frame? Others comment about the frame not being so bad, but, I wouldn’t want anyone to know that I worked on it. Would you pay someone mega bucks for this type of work? I don’t think so.
AND WE'RE ADDING SPEED HOLES !!

Is there ever a cost breakdown on any of these builds?
They done it on a few "Budget builds" but what they call a budget build, many of us call a full restoration! I'm $15000 into a $10000 project and that don't even count the price of my truck yet!
@@easyricer it also helps that they have a full shop of tools and fabrication material.
I wanna do this to a new ranger.. so bad..
Illuminator are 5.0 litres no? I've never heard of a 4.6 litres Aluminator.
Which is best transmission CVT or torque converter or dsg???
Shoulda made the speed holes triangles..
Now we have fuel pumps that pump way more than 255 each lmao
why didnt u clean and seal the frame bfoe u boxeed it ? it seem like it would been easuer bfor hand
Being able to getup and do something fun and get paid instead of someone telling u what do all day. Im leaving Quality Engineering to start my own venture.
Is that Chrisfix?
Hey guys from Puerto Rico
Please, I beg you, please, it's my biggest biggest dream. I really want to learn how to handle it. American mechanics, just like you learned from somebody someday, it is not possible to do a great charity, a good deed and teach me how to work with heavy mechanics too. I don't charge anything until I work for free for you. I do everything a little bit, just a lot of hardworking and very polite obidiencite I do everything you guys tell me to do on the spot, I do it on the run, it still won't be able to teach me how to work with heavy mechanics. Disel, please, I'm just a big fan of all of you. I love it when I was a kid and here in my country I never had the opportunity and the truth is also not like American mechanics, I tried to be a mechanic when I was only 10, from 10 to 12 years old, I worked in the heavy mechanics of an acquaintance of mine dad, just like i said i quit because it has nothing to do with mechanics i really want to learn for my life q is nothing more than american mechanics, right, please, i really help me to share his knowledge with me I, I beg you in the same way that someone TEACHED you everything you know today and you take it further, teach me also to be able to take it further, because my biggest dream is to be able to assemble a pickup truck in the American mechanical style, right ❤
You guys should be wearing safety glasses...you’re role models for tons of new young people starting out in the automotive trades haha grinder and paint will make you the welder you ain’t :)
How many people buy the DVD's?
Where can I see the Ford ranger body for this?
Good thing these guys don't have to make a living off their welding prowess.
You'll have to start all over again with new bolts...
If its an 03 04 dohc 4.6 out of the cobra you call it the terminator. Nothing else
Good luck bringing that to an average mechanic. heh.
Handling, weight shaving, and handcrafted parts. This is very European.
Shouldn't the holes been dimpled?
You are grinding the welds because they are horrible. Not because you want a finished look.
Did I miss something? What happened to the mercury engine?
Michael Vargas it was majorly hurt. Probably before they even put it in the truck.
Ah ok👍
I can't help but think they would've had much fewer clearance issues, and maybe not spent any more money, if they'd built an aluminum 347 and turbocharged it...
Why does the announcer sound like he straining with taking a dump?
Kinda sad you couldn't use the headers. Log manifolds = yucky sound
The lightning has two fuel pumps
Speed holes, are y'all Simpsons fans?? D'oh!?
Speed holes make the car go faster...
I hate hydraulic clutches, I prefer cable.
Shouting for 19mins is very fatiging. Not to mention the smashing and crashing soundtrack. Relax.
cannot find even 50% 70% or 80% alcohol for paint prep and or clean up what is a good alternative? Apparently people are bathing in the stuff
McMaster-Carr has gallon jugs of 99% isopropyl alcohol. It’s expensive (especially shipping-hazmat) but they have it. At least the did 3 weeks ago when I ordered it.
@@aurktman1106 cool thanks I will check it out..Everything that is useful to us hobbyists and the like is useful for everything else too so prices going up all over time to pay up I suppose.
@@thomasdaddio741 Thanks is that cleaning solvent 3919S? the Nitrile gloves good enough with that product? I do not know I usually just get to the primer stuff (can) I am learning the real deal slowly this time but the store is closed in my area so the guy I would ask/bother is not available to show me so...I am a pretty good monkey as monkey see monkey do but when I am unsure I ask as many questions as I can so I do not blow up my house/garage I usually dilute as instructed. Or I should say I got the breathing gear and ventilation thing down so at least that:)
Speed holes.
Plasma table, and no safety glasses...
That should be good for at least 800hp
Yeah I was cringing while he wasn't using a utility knife
Thousands and thousands of dollars spent and they couldn't even get the frame sandblasted.
In all fairness they didn't spend a dime. All promotional products.
Cutting out metal to reduce weight. How about not eat 10 hamburgers to get the weight savings.
Stopping the video while a commercial was on! You guys just made a huge mistake. A large unforgivable one. Cutting weight on a flywheel greatly reduces torque... find out from the speed shops the reason for torque is mass weight and what it takes to stop it. A lighter wheel ... flywheel, is easier to stop or less torque. I hope that you read this and catch your mistake in time as you will lose significant power. Torque power!
Not sure why the inner frame wasn't cleaned up before welding boxes in. Weird and STUPID.
Prep & paint was so bad It wouln`t last long time.
Retire the announcer!!!!!!

There is NO SUCH THING as "aircraft grade aluminum." Aluminum is aluminum, steel is steel.
Sure their are different types and grade, But none is named aircraft grade.
Business say this because it make their product "sound better" which is bull shit!!
Ford likes to say this a lot too.
Like Chrysler's corinthian leather and GM calling their Isuzu diesel duramax

Why don’t you ever see black people on this show?
Why put headers to start with ain’t cobra exhaust manifolds performance 🤨 headers ain’t going to do any good having them on for looks 🤨those are for Bimbos
Really, get rid of the stupid voice over
Razor blade, bare handed, cutting the templates? Someone will get hurt...
All the nice equipment in their shop and he's still using an air impact lol.
I wonder why they didn't use a dimple die to press out the holes in the steel added to the frame
Center force is TRASH!!!
