Sounds like you've got a Great plain going CJ I can't wait for next season to see raggedy Ann come out with a good deal of health and just ready to go and you have your confidence back up cuz I'm sure once you get back in the back in the drive of things and get the car correct you'll be hurting some people's feelings just like you were before
For future reference, the cowl panel is removable fairly easily. It gives you a lot more room to work on the back of the motor. It only takes a few minutes to remove it once you learn how to do it.
I bought an '08 F250 with the 5.4 about a year ago. At 282k miles it developed an intermittant skip under load. When changing the plugs, EVERY ONE had NO visible center electrode left ! They were all burned right down into the porcelain !
Is that a mock up engine in the turbo car or is a built ready to go engine ? I can’t wait to see Raggedy Ann back in action get it ready take the time it’s winter freezing.
The engine in the turbo car is the engine for it. I can’t wait to get all this stuff done and get back into the swing of things. Really can’t wait to start testing this turbo car if ever I get it done. Haha
I hope you rub off on John he’s always got mustangs but I dont think he takes racing seriously or does much of it. You definitely got some good help with him, we call him Mcgyver he can fix anything. Hate that he started working cause now I’ve lost my mechanic. 😂 Happy Holidays, love the furbaby content. ❤🐶
This intake is the same one that’s been on it for yrs and never had the issue, I wouldn’t think it would be that. But I may try something else at some point any way.
No really it has been medically evaluated. Hearing aides are to expensive and overwhelming when you go from not being able to hear to hearing every little noise.so we just keep yelling at each other lol
@@raggedyannohiosmalltire2329Temu has hearing aides cheap. I always listened to music loud then worked at General Mills for 10 years and never wore my ear plugs. My husband keeps laying the beltone ads to the side and I said I wasn’t paying $1200 for it. You just can’t wear them into a restaurant cause it does pick up the music loudly. I knew I couldn’t hear anything outta my left ear but was shocked when I put the aide in. They’re like $17.
Took my engine to the machine shop today and got a game plan together ish. I have plenty to do and realistically very little time to get it done in. With the engine not being right I found it better to try to focus on my program here.
@@GeraldedwardKaiserhe got put out very early I think 2 weekends ago. I was shocked when he got beat. I’d love to know how much was lost on the line betting on him. He definitely made up for it this past weekend though.
@tater82 he is a badass tuner and his car is a monster i just wished I had that kinda money, support and hell his drive is amazing too. Like on Cj here build 2 crashed cars and come back swinging. I admire both of them and the Src team
Gerald This is extremely true. As I sit here watching dod I’ve seen a few upsets and Ryan having a parts failure is a prim example of anything in fact can happen. And yes Ryan is a bad bad son of a gun but some things ya just can’t predict
To answer your head line. No you don't have a chance. Yes you will beat some but you are racing all out light weight cars with lots more power. washed trip driving down there if you ask me.
That’s kinda my feeling a lot of times, however I’ve made it to 7 cars and last yr to 4 and gaped the guy I raced in the semifinals and took the long road as I barely crossed the outside line. The car was a contender and it was first season out with it and lost all my data at war in the woods. So to say there’s no chance is kinda bullshit. It’s Raggedy Ann there’s always a chance. 😉
Love what you show behind the scenes.and the track.happy holidays to you and yours.
Thank you. Happy holidays to you and yours as well
Looking fwd to seeing ya race next season keep on keepin on Cj

Thanks for the support, man. We're gonna put in the work this off-season to make sure she's ready to roll next season.

I’ll have to learn haha
Thank you for the update 😊. I enjoy watching CJ IMPROVING ON HIS HOT RODS 🤔💪🏾🇺🇲🗽✅💯
Thanks, I'm always trying to make it better.
Looking great 👍

Fuel Injector gone bad
Wow!! Ever find the issue??
They had it set to like a 500,000 Gap
My 2006 Chrysler Town and country same way
It is going to be cold this weekend at rockingham I live 30 minutes away and we woke up to snow this morning
I’m watching live feed now, it looks cold. Lol.
Amazon has copper sbf header gaskets cheap... and they fit
Raggedy Ann is a bad girl hope ya'll had a great Thanksgiving CJ
Thank you. Yes it was good thanks. Hope yours was good also

If you change the back 3 plugs from underneath it is easier than from the top
It wasn’t that bad over all really. Thanks for the info though. I’ll have to try that.
Good job bro
That’s funny, I was saying 80 tho gap!
Definitely got your moneys worth out of those plugs!!
You aint a shittin.
When ever i worked on those shit ass fwd vans especially doing plugs id jack the rear of the motor up a bit to get it to rotate
👍👍
💪💪
Header’s looks good to me
Thanks. First set actually starting from nothing
I did a caravan that have the 90 on the strap gone so only the side of the strap was left
Damn!! That’s bad bad. Haha
@raggedyannohiosmalltire2329 and it actually ran pretty decent which is weird did u put champion plugs in? mopars don't care for autolite plugs
Well see you in 4 months!
Hopefully 🤞
My mother rest her soul run plugs like that, call em good,,I got tired of changing coil packs, as long as it rolls, holds air, and starts we are good
That’s kinda how things go around here on the day to day cars.
I hope you rub off on John he’s always got mustangs but I dont think he takes racing seriously or does much of it. You definitely got some good help with him, we call him Mcgyver he can fix anything.

He’s definitely a good hand to have and Im sure that sucks loosing some one you trust to do the job right
One of them spark plugs looked like it had burnt coolant on it.
Hope not. But it’s a possibility. 🤦🏻♂️
Maybe put a different intake on car with different style runners c that helps ur # 1 cylinder
This intake is the same one that’s been on it for yrs and never had the issue, I wouldn’t think it would be that. But I may try something else at some point any way.
just fyi rachet strap the engine to front core support and it will rotate enough to get in there
What Viking struts are them? Are they the Ron g's or just Viking what spring just curious cuz I'm changing mine
They were ron g then now they are trs.
Pac-car v bands 😂
😳🤣🤣
His hearing is just fine...

Tap it down send it till new ones are gotten will work 😂1
Lol. Right. It could had been done. She wasn’t trying to hear that though. Haha
Spark plugs don't last like they used to
Nothing does really. It’s all kinda garbage it seems
Wow you gave up on nitrous??
Nah raggedy Ann will always be nitrous. Turbo car( private Pyle) will be turbo with nitrous
Why not go to Dig or die .. Have a booth and to spend time with fans and Sell merchandise
Took my engine to the machine shop today and got a game plan together ish.

Don't worry Ryan Mitchell is going to win the 30,000 at Dig or Die I don't blame you for not making the trip!
Anything can happen in a drag race, Ryan is a badass but in drag racing the fastest dont always win!

That didn’t happen this time.

Did you see the race lastyear ?
@noprepoutlawmafia times have changed in one year. No challenge
