I love all your videos alex. You have helped me out by learning new things from you. Your a very good teacher and all around helpful. Just want to thank you even though we have never met your awesome. Did you get my email with pics of my 01 ws6 ?
I have really been going through allot lately with my father and helping raise my niece who turned 6 not too long ago yaa lol. I cant have kids so shes like my lil monster. Love her to death. Your videos keep me on and off my phone lol. On to learn and off to earn, for my ta of course.
I have an 06 Daytona with a 5.7 hemi. Mine had the classic valve seat issue which grenaded my head and piston. However, thanks to channels like yours I stuck it in a storage unit and rebuilt the entire motor myself over the course of 6 months with only hand tools. I had no idea what I was getting into but nothing was more satisfying than hearing her start again. Thank you for having a channel that shows that people can do these things themselves.

I don't like where this is going...i have the same Year same model car. Torred color with 221k kms on it so like 130k miles...did your radiator blow or you lose tons of coolant? I know they can go but i'm fairly certain it's mostly if the head get's super heated.
@ I had one almost over heat on a super hot day a few months before the breakdown occured. I didn't completely peg the heat in the red but it was definitely over normal operating temp. I would look into this issue online, there are preventive repairs you can do to make sure it doesn't happen to your car. My car was also at 150k miles when the breakdown occured. I wish you all the luck with your charger.
I would definitely tear it down and see if it has any chance of being saved reasonably but sideways in the bore can't be good. A commenter said he has a complete scat pack engine with everything and that might be a good option.
I have a 2010 SRT8 Challenger with the 6.1 Hemi. My CAI is a Mopar long ram and the filter resides in the drivers side fender, a bit more protected than the one shown. You would have to drive through an 18" puddle to hydrolock it. With the 6.1 its critical to use correct weight oil. It has oil squirters for example that cool the piston skirts...very small galleys. Crying shame about that engine, crank is forged though, may have lived. The intake manifold is a work of art imho. You will have to pull it apart to diagnose and see if its salvage worthy. Block may be cracked and that cylinder could be gouged too badly to recover with a .030 over. Stock hp in my 2010 is 425. Would love to see a tear down and possible rebuild of it.
I still think that engine may be salvagable. If the crank /bottom end is good.and if it's only that one piston damaged. If the bore has light damage (as a piston is aluminium and relatively soft ) It could be re honed. Of course if the block is cracked it's game over. Buying a 2nd hand engine could end up with a similar situation...
There's no rebuilding that. All that oil on the ground tells me that the broken con rod punched a hole in the block. That crank is likely gacked too badly to even attempt to clean it up.
only good thing is the factory sub on the side of the truck that was a option that most people if they have they take it out of the car and sell it separately
@@makeaway4554 as a car enthusiast from a young age, i am still butthurt about insurance costs even when i remember how my friend wrecked the MK4 supra i found for him
He was in the military, I see the camelback (it has water in a backpack) tip in the back. That explains the tobacco, the bullets, and the repo lol. I was in the army. And this was the norm for most of the soldiers. You bought a car from dealerships at like 30% interest because they just wanted a "fast car" and then neglected the cars and stopped paying.

6.1’s are pretty bullet proof with the weak point being the valve train once you start adding power. i’ve seen many well over 200k miles even with boost. it’s obvious this one wasn’t taken care of though. also, that air intake actually is a pretty common design (legmaker makes one that’s pretty pricey), granted i think they are really meant for the people who don’t “daily drive” their cars and would see puddles that deep. sad to see a srt this mistreated. although i wouldn’t expect much profit from a high mileage first gen, especially a black 06. not really a good buy in the first place unless you were planning on parting it out.
Those 5.7, 6.1, 6.4 hemi engines are some of the most reliable engines I have ever worked on! And this is coming from a Chevy guy lol Fyi : the 6.1l hemi is known for breaking rocker arms. Sorry for the lemon bro 🍋
Sorry Rich, I locked up my 2007 300 SRT8 during a flash flood here in Des Moines IA, back in 2016. Mine was a prior salvage with a missing splash guard.

Yeah, it’s pretty sad this is “youtubers” are going for nowadays. I think it’s lovely “they” are working together... You going away from DIY to stupidshow now. Good luck to you all!
Back in the 80s my brother-in-law had a jet ski boat with a 455 Olds motor. One weekend he got some cheap gas at the marina and when he shut the engine off it began to diesel and actually ran backwards long enough to suck water into the exhaust stacks and then it hydro-locked. When we got the engine out of the boat and took it apart it had two connecting rods which were bent so badly that they couldn’t be slid through an empty cylinder. But all the pistons were intact, albeit with crushed ring grooves on several. He got lucky in that neither the block, cylinder heads nor crank was damaged. We had all the machine work done by a local machine shop and rebuilt the engine. Shortly after that he sold that jet boat and bought a conventional inboard/outboard. Hot rod motors and cheap marina gas just don’t mix!
LegitStreetCars, can you give us a follow up/final on this one? Hopefully Rich is able to recover something without it being a total loss, be nice to see how it resolved and if us viewer/amateurs should even consider buying via an online auction. $6000 down the crapper would about sink me.
@@CoreMaster111 the car screams military. When he opened the back door and on the floor there is a CamelBak mouth piece on the floor, that was the first clue. Newports on the floor of the passenger foot well, that's a strong possibility, the 5.56 ammo in the cup holder is another giveaway. I'm only 8 minutes into the video and I had to see the comments before I went any further. I'm waiting to see if a vape shows up soon and cans of energy drinks. Ripits, Monster (white can), Bangs or one of the other mainstream energy drinks. If dip cans or a spitter were found in there I'd 100% guarantee it was a service members car.
@@patricksanders2498 Bro the weird box he pulled out could've been some type of vape and he mentioned energy drinks. I like yalls insight. Interesting you can peg a guy as military off that haha.
Your vehicle is a reflection of one's inner well being. You live that life and it takes it toll. Looks like this person was into ARs thinking 223 or 556.
I can't wait to put a little bit bigger of a cam in my ZL1... it made 524 rwhp on 11lbs of boost... the ucu was pulling 7 degrees of timing to protect itself. Found out the gas station I was getting fuel at was ripping people off and selling 87 octane as 91 octane. Anyways, lol back to the subject at hand, I have complete faith in you two to build an extremely badass setup!
A lot of mopar guys use this type of intake on these engines. Had one on my 5.7 and i went through a puddle and well you can pretty much guess what happened next lol They're actually a TRUE cai because it relocates the air filter completely outside the engine bay, just don't ever drive in water. Legmaker is the company who makes them
Or just don’t put one on your n/a stock car. It’s been proven many times, you aren’t gaining any power. All that work, and the only thing achieved was making the car less reliable. No point dont do it unless you absolutely have to, like your going to boost it and need a intake. Even then no need to go all extra and relocate it to a stupid spot 🤷♂️
with that low intake I bet it got driven through standing water, sucked it into the cylinders, and hydro locked it. Then the owner quit paying on it since it didn't run.
Great cars when bought new but the only downfall of building the most badass factory cars to be dreamed up in motor city is they are bought for 1 reason and 1 reason only... to run the hell out of them since the hellcat name and to let out your inner demon... see where this goes? Great cars new way to go dodge wish chevy and Ford would jump on the horsepower train and reignite the power wars of the 60s and early 70s pre gas crisis
Do you have any idea how absolutely moronic you sound? There are literally thousands of SRT vehicles with north of 150k miles on them that are in great shape. It all depends on the upkeep of the vehicle
Everything has potential. It's just a matter of how much time and money you will be willing to put into it to get it TO that potential. If you got it for a good price? Run with it. Don't wait till you get my age (50) and decided you want to get into a project.
Love the channel and content, motorsports industry getting hit hard by govt overreach would love to see your channel get your subscribers on board with backing the rpm act and what's going on in the industry before it's too late.
I hydrolocked the 5.7 in my Jeep, connecting rod snapped and punched a hole in the side of the block. Thing still ran after, drove it a mile out of the woods. Ps totally my fault, drove it through a pond

Guess smoking weed cutting everyone off waving his guns around not paying the car note car exhaust smoking away full throttle at every light. New Baby Mama finance a car for him again
He gonna need a K&N sponsorship for the intake upgrade, and relocate the air filter up and away from that hella low-low current location. Also, I have high hopes Rich will be happy to see this car up and running once again.

Bent pushrod, piston broken in half, I'm going with hydrolock from the moronic home brew air intake.

With the 6.1 its critical to use correct weight oil. It has oil squirters for example that cool the piston skirts...very small galleys.

The intake manifold is a work of art imho.

Maybe 308 too because the body of the casing looks fatter? Maybe?
Definitely assault rifle rounds
@@joshsway2158 lol

“It’s a wing suit!” Lol
Yeah, it’s pretty sad this is “youtubers” are going for nowadays.
I think it’s lovely “they” are working together...
You going away from DIY to stupidshow now. Good luck to you all!
Anyways. it doesn’t matter, they need to make their money anyways they can, good job!
ZiZo shut up
i literally spat out my drink of laughter when he put the scope into the cylinder
Back in the 80s my brother-in-law had a jet ski boat with a 455 Olds motor. One weekend he got some cheap gas at the marina and when he shut the engine off it began to diesel and actually ran backwards long enough to suck water into the exhaust stacks and then it hydro-locked. When we got the engine out of the boat and took it apart it had two connecting rods which were bent so badly that they couldn’t be slid through an empty cylinder. But all the pistons were intact, albeit with crushed ring grooves on several. He got lucky in that neither the block, cylinder heads nor crank was damaged. We had all the machine work done by a local machine shop and rebuilt the engine. Shortly after that he sold that jet boat and bought a conventional inboard/outboard. Hot rod motors and cheap marina gas just don’t mix!
I’d check with Junkyard Dave. He’s probably got an engine or two laying around for that Charger
I mean the interior looks like it just needs to be detailed real good and you'll be good
Yeah if you replace the whole engine lol
I have a spare engine 🤝
He needs to get with you ASAP. This one is likely trash
How much
lol loving your transition into advertisement :P
great video as always Alex
LegitStreetCars, can you give us a follow up/final on this one? Hopefully Rich is able to recover something without it being a total loss, be nice to see how it resolved and if us viewer/amateurs should even consider buying via an online auction. $6000 down the crapper would about sink me.
5.56mm Rounds that was a Soldiers car I saw a Cammel Back tip cover.
lol say the cammel back tip cover and was like wonder if anyone posted about it yet
So in america everyone is a soldier because they have few spare cartridges laying around?
@@CoreMaster111 the car screams military. When he opened the back door and on the floor there is a CamelBak mouth piece on the floor, that was the first clue. Newports on the floor of the passenger foot well, that's a strong possibility, the 5.56 ammo in the cup holder is another giveaway. I'm only 8 minutes into the video and I had to see the comments before I went any further. I'm waiting to see if a vape shows up soon and cans of energy drinks. Ripits, Monster (white can), Bangs or one of the other mainstream energy drinks. If dip cans or a spitter were found in there I'd 100% guarantee it was a service members car.
@@patricksanders2498 Bro the weird box he pulled out could've been some type of vape and he mentioned energy drinks. I like yalls insight. Interesting you can peg a guy as military off that haha.
@@m1l3s27 I'm a service member, that's why I know what some people have in their cars haha. I've seen some real doozies from my time in.
"On today's episode: Rich buys a problem, I scratch a bumper and both stare a the tailights"
Samcrac gets the last laugh 😂
Your vehicle is a reflection of one's inner well being. You live that life and it takes it toll. Looks like this person was into ARs thinking 223 or 556.
I can't wait to put a little bit bigger of a cam in my ZL1... it made 524 rwhp on 11lbs of boost... the ucu was pulling 7 degrees of timing to protect itself. Found out the gas station I was getting fuel at was ripping people off and selling 87 octane as 91 octane. Anyways, lol back to the subject at hand, I have complete faith in you two to build an extremely badass setup!
Just by looking at the car all I know is there was a lot of weed and some fun times made in the car before the time now
I am loving your content recently.You're killing it.
Thanks man!!
Trash, finishing rods, tobacco products and BULLETS??
Looks like a real “YeeHaw” special!😂
Rich took it well because it's A PROJECT, YAY!!! It will turn out well!
He had faith in that high speed chase behind that srt ~Pooh Shiesty
Not surprising...see how these guys drive on the street? Common sense is not so common.
Probably a soldier, there’s a drinking tube cover off an issued camelback in the back seat and 5.56 rifle rounds
Glad someone else had this answer. Definitely a soldier.
just watching this for the first time, saw that camelbak cover and thought "thats some pvt's 30% interest mistake"
"What was this guy into?" "Fishing, flying, bullets, smoking and energy drinks" yep definitely military
I have a feeling this was the Zodiac Killer’s car.
A lot of mopar guys use this type of intake on these engines. Had one on my 5.7 and i went through a puddle and well you can pretty much guess what happened next lol They're actually a TRUE cai because it relocates the air filter completely outside the engine bay, just don't ever drive in water. Legmaker is the company who makes them
Or just don’t put one on your n/a stock car. It’s been proven many times, you aren’t gaining any power. All that work, and the only thing achieved was making the car less reliable. No point dont do it unless you absolutely have to, like your going to boost it and need a intake. Even then no need to go all extra and relocate it to a stupid spot 🤷♂️
I think the previous owner knew the car was going to be repossessed and he just revs up the engine way past redlining it.
There's an electronic limiter to prevent the engine from exceeding a set RPM.
with that low intake I bet it got driven through standing water, sucked it into the cylinders, and hydro locked it. Then the owner quit paying on it since it didn't run.
@@tubehound69 nailed it.
@@andrewhigdon8346 TY!
that would also grenade the motor leaving a hole/holes, there would be waaay more damage to the block and heads.
You’re going to be surprised when you find engine prices bud, 4-6k for a used 6.1 engine with higher mileage like 130-140k
Yeah, 6.1s aren't a "couple grand" used. Barely can find a crappy 5.7 for that amount.
I found a 6.1 engine with 20k on it for $3,300. You just have got to look around and find good deals.
That’s why I don’t mess with any Dodge/Chrysler vehicles. They are almost always dogged out and just destroyed. 👎
Great cars when bought new but the only downfall of building the most badass factory cars to be dreamed up in motor city is they are bought for 1 reason and 1 reason only... to run the hell out of them since the hellcat name and to let out your inner demon... see where this goes? Great cars new way to go dodge wish chevy and Ford would jump on the horsepower train and reignite the power wars of the 60s and early 70s pre gas crisis
Do you have any idea how absolutely moronic you sound? There are literally thousands of SRT vehicles with north of 150k miles on them that are in great shape. It all depends on the upkeep of the vehicle
Dee Bone let me guess, you’ve never ever driven any modern SRT, or Hellcat vehicle? It’s a rhetorical question.
@Dee Bone sure
Throw a hellcat engine in there 👍
6.2 Hellcat hemi crate engines are pretty expensive,buying a salvage hellcat could be a pretty good choice
@@affalterbachamg2094 after seeing that interior, I vote NO
Rich is one one the coolest humbled people I've ever met
Everything has potential. It's just a matter of how much time and money you will be willing to put into it to get it TO that potential. If you got it for a good price? Run with it. Don't wait till you get my age (50) and decided you want to get into a project.
Love the channel and content, motorsports industry getting hit hard by govt overreach would love to see your channel get your subscribers on board with backing the rpm act and what's going on in the industry before it's too late.
This was 100% some young enlisted’s car, some young soldier from the hood for sure.
noticed the camelback mouth piece 😭😭
I hydrolocked the 5.7 in my Jeep, connecting rod snapped and punched a hole in the side of the block. Thing still ran after, drove it a mile out of the woods.
Ps totally my fault, drove it through a pond
Badass. These engines don’t get enough credit. The issues are all because Chrysler just denies everything.
My first SRT! seeing the Hemi orange block brings back some crazy memories!
Time for an LS in there 🤣
Who hurt you...
@@nicholascortez728 it’s an LS fan boi thing ig. I never see Ford or dodge fan boys saying “time for a 5.0”
When that borescope went in 😯
"He used to fish for food..."
This is not a good sign
I've only been a subscriber for a while now. Actually I subscribed when I came across the jeep Laredo limited and I can't believe I've missed all these cool videos lol! I have a lot of catching up to do. Really enjoy your channel 👍
Double up on jumper cables. Starts like you but a new battery in everytime. No wasting time charging at all. Works everytime for me. Run parallel.
Looks like .223 or 5.56 commonly found in the AR platform
Or many bolt action rifles
Rip the good parts out of it, sell the parts, scrap the rest. When will Rich ever learn.
Best ideal yet.
I think it was planned .. it would be a crap vid if was ok don’t you think.? 😉
The block might be salvageable time to pull it and try to rebuild
No point, too much labor. A good used engine and it'll be running in a few days vs weeks or months 🤷♂️
Rich can ALWAYS send it to demo ranch,da doctor can fix it with his new 5 ton 4x4
My favorite people!! I absolutely love you guys!!!!❤️❤️
In the driver back seat there was the cap to an army "camel back" basically water backpack so maybe military
I AGREE camel back 5.56 rounds, tobacco, if you find monster can in their it confirmed.
Guess smoking weed cutting everyone off waving his guns around not paying the car note car exhaust smoking away full throttle at every light. New Baby Mama finance a car for him again
What if it was a bitch
He was😁
His baby mama Shaniqua probably financed him a Chrysler 300 with big rims while on food stamps lol
"Oh he's recording a video. I better go fire up my weedwacker and make sure his audio is trashed." -Neighbor
He gonna need a K&N sponsorship for the intake upgrade, and relocate the air filter up and away from that hella low-low current location. Also, I have high hopes Rich will be happy to see this car up and running once again.
I subbed because i find this channel easy to watch. Good content with no bs going on. Nice work. And as far as your buddy...his mind was racing after that vid.😃
Replace it with a Briggs & Stratton.
