Bill, do you honestly think those struts are going to work with no up travel ? I can't imagine Billy wanting to raise the front ent up 2", especially if it could be corrected now. We'll kinda they already welded it up . The struts could be sent back and the body cut down.
I gotta say , this has been 1 of the funniest video's yall have posted 😂😂😂 with the goofing and the inserts i literally spewed beer ! Great work great group of talented guys ,from the floor to behind the camera and the editing... love this guy's... Billy The Kid is gunna be 1 happy tree killing machine!
It's just like anything, whoever has the most money, or should I say whoever puts the most amount of money into whatever they do wins. It's the same in tractor pulling. Always ends up pushing out the little guy and this is coming from the guy that put the money in and took all the trophies home. I saw it in racing too. They need to have more strict rules that way everyone is on the same level.
Loving the new, longer and more in-depth videos with technical content. Please keep it up as it's super interesting to follow a build to completion with tons of detail on how you guys work. Other shops have promised this kind of content but almost never follow through, dropping short vids every few months that just say they've been too busy to film- it's really frustrating if you are invested in their work.
I have to say I've always had my doubts about Rick because he doesn't come from a drag racing or cars background but after this video Rick is in for the long haul he's as much of a team player as anyone at Tin Soldiers he's ride or die! Hell yeah Rick!💪🏻
You guys use a zip disc and the grinder a lot LOL. I would have broke out the porta-band and went to town . My other favourite is a air saw , some call them a wah wah saw from the sound. I love mine and use hacksaw blades and cut the to the required length as required . How much travel do the cups have ?? I would think one could make a similar cup a 1/2" shorter if required . Looking forward to the progress on this project and of course CB!!!
It's about time he flipped the sawzall blade around so he can get closer to his cut. I wanted to reach thru my phone and do it for him. 🤣 BTK car is coming along nicely. 👌 Nice job guys! 🔦🏁💰🤑🇺🇸
Most definitely In it deep now boys, DEBT 😂.Love what you guys do SRC and Tin soldiers Proud to be an American and a Kentucky Native and Ohio keo it up
9:07 learned this the hard way. I was cutting out a downbar it gave and pinched the wheel throwing it into my arm. Gashed me all the down to bone on my wrist probably 4 inches long. The worst part is I was hired on the team two weeks before as an apprentice and the owner fired me cause he was afraid of me suing him ☹️ sucky situation
Sorry for the loss of your grandma bro. That shit sucks. Been thru it too much. Congrats on the win, wonder how much of a gap you would have put on them cats if the nos wasn't surging! Keep it up playa
I’m a 66 year old man that grew up in the 60’s & the 70’s when muscles cars were all the rage. I grew up in a Buick family and at 17 I had a 1970 GS455 Stage1 convertible. I am still a Buick person. What can ya’ll tell me about the GS that is on the lift or let me know if the owner has a website for it? I have followed all of SRC’s family and you folks also. I do remember seeing that GS racing in Ohio on some of Billy’s video’s and haven’t seen it in a while and wondered what happened to it. Thanks in advance and I understand if you folks can’t give out any info. Much appreciated and I thoroughly enjoy all of your content. Sincerely Dave J from Maryland.
Yeah it definitely makes a lot more sense to build another 540 that's twin turbo so he can share tune-ups between the cars and you can also grab an engine out of one or the other if something happens to one all that goes out the window and he's basically up schitt creek if something happens to one of them... I wanted to see it too but like he said it's going to be a steep learning curve and that's going to be expensive in the middle of the seasons really not the right time for that.. he's still mastering EFI as it is too
And ProCharger parts are INSANELY EXPENSIVE as well !! SRC knows that Twin Turbski life !! I was excited to see him try the ProCharger, but I think the Twins will work out better right now for SRC !!
Great video, camera work is good. I just wish the camera guy would not talk as much. I’ve noticed this in the past few videos. It breaks up the normal interaction of the guys working.
Your shock doesn’t have to be on the centerline of the ball joint. You can make a bracket coming off the back of the lower control arm. And it would probley give you 6 inches more travel.
Okay, for the most part I understand the reasoning for the strut cup mount, but why not use a more traditional coilover "Camber Plate" top hat? Would give you that extra like 4" of room, with adjustability.
You guys know ur shit there's doubt . So I figured there's a major discount or free cause this video picked up where the last one left off , oh maybe a month ago . So I get it now !!! But good job guys no one can say anything negative about you all . Can't wait to see ur car out there .
I had a tree fall damn near on me when I was out fishing on my boat. My bait got caught in it so I tugged on it. Tree was in the water and rotted, it snapped off and started to fall right at me. I’m trying to back up like moon walking but can’t go any where cause I’m a little boat. It fell right at the front deck and almost got me. I turned and looked at my buddy and he started busting a gut laughing at me. He was like dude, your doing the moon walk and not going any where. 😂 I didn’t think it was that funny but I didn’t get the view he did. 😂 we’d laugh about that all the time.
Billy ask them to build him a car, they said they didn't have time. So he brings them a car to update and they have to completely rebuild it. I see what you did Billy
We're in deep now boys😂.. wonder if he went full on change mode and went twin turbo with the build instead of ProCharger even though he bought the ProCharger that way he'll have two engines that work for both builds ..
He had on his last video that he wants tye camaro and nova to have same set ups and close to same tools for now, he also said financially for now to stick with turbos.
@@travisjolley6688yes that's what actually made me wonder if he went through with it because he already had them building the car for something else I don't know if they had to change something for the difference in setups RF they're only at the point they showed in the video anyway so it wouldn't matter, I know he already bought the ProCharger so I just wasn't curious if he pulled the trigger and told them he's for sure he's going that other route ..it definitely makes the most sense money wise and racing wise ,and as cool as a procharger is it wouldn't be cool going through that learning curve in the middle of the season .. it's hard enough being as new to EFI as he is without completely changing to a blower combo and then switching back and forth between the small block s10, Nova. And Camaro
Just doesn't seem like that style strut is going to work out unless the ride height is raised a few inches probably should just have coil overs and upper a arms to keep it low with lots of travel
Last time i lit a firecracker in the shop the big big boss happened to walk around the corner the instant it went off with me standing there with that look on my face. He was not happy at all because the owners happened to be there that day unbeknown to me. I didn't get fired though. Should have seen him jump ...kinda made it worth it all.
Guys!!! Excellent content and editing!!! Nice job everyone!!!
Somebody is a lil too excited !!!!!!!!
Sure hope Billy is paying by the job and not the hour. 😂😂 All Jason does is talk. 😂😂😂

Great job everybody f*** the haters
Brad is a smart man listen to him you guys will be educated for sure
TSR's building Billy a sweet ride!! Great job guys...
That thing is going to be one of the baddest no prep cars in the USA , you all do one hell of a job.
I gotta say , this has been 1 of the funniest video's yall have posted 😂😂😂 with the goofing and the inserts i literally spewed beer !
Great work great group of talented guys ,from the floor to behind the camera and the editing... love this guy's... Billy The Kid is gunna be 1 happy tree killing machine!
Knocking it out guys. Good work, appreciate the humor too
Looks like Billy's game is about to step up. Can hardly wait to see this one gaptizing the competition .

This Things Gonna Be A Monstrosity. Tin Soldiers Is Where Its At! 😎

Can’t wait to see this done in a week or so lol Nice work
LOVE the rollcage/chassis stuff ............ MORE !!!!!
I get so excited when I see Tin soldiers posted. The quality is 🔥
You guys keep up the good work. What a great shop.
What ever it takes to get the job done..
I can't wait to see this car finished I'm sure it's going to be 1st class work. Good job guys
Best vid so far. Love the shop atmosphere.
Car's looking good so far half the battle is the thinking and fab work
The Amish mafia clip 🤣 11:44

Tin Soldier To The Front!! Billy's Camaro is looking 🔥 🔥
🇺🇸🏁🇺🇸
You guys are killing it one of your best videos yet. The editing is on point. The Amish mafia had me rolling. 😂😂😂😂
Not gonna lie .....the shot of short shorts on the ladder made me glad I ain't had supper yet........think I'd lost it
Does that happen every time you get turned on 😉
It's about time he flipped the sawzall blade around so he can get closer to his cut. I wanted to reach thru my phone and do it for him. 🤣
BTK car is coming along nicely. 👌
Nice job guys!

Always good vibes and videos coming from TSR 🏁🏁🇺🇸🇺🇸

That gs is actually a real deal gsx which is crazy considering how rare those are but its killer nonetheless.
That's Lonnie Diers of Extreme Automatics Buick, he's also an Ohioan...it's a sweet ride!
I was excited to watch him run the pro charger. Im a little bummed. He knows whats best for him though
Yeah it definitely makes a lot more sense to build another 540 that's twin turbo so he can share tune-ups between the cars and you can also grab an engine out of one or the other if something happens to one all that goes out the window and he's basically up schitt creek if something happens to one of them...

Good job keep up the good work
Just curious.I know Billy plans to put a big block in there.But is there any way to invert or go in board with the suspension?
looking good guys cant wait to see the finished product recking somones day .
Respect 🙏🏻. Beautiful work
Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me. Unless it's 2024 and words are actually bullets
🏳️🌈
Awesome man!
Great content !
Tried all the blades available a few years back cutting stainless. DeWalt were by far the best
Diablo blades for the win!! I dont use any other sawzall blades
Can you cut 1/2 in off the top cup?
Angle cut the strut pocket a tad so you can raise the mount up a little bit
Great content guys.
Great job guys!
Get some Diablo carbide tipped Sawzall blades and some 2 and 4 inch cut off wheels. They are awesome and last longer.
diablo sawzall blade ftw. looks like a wood blade but will cute 1/4 plate
I use the carbide tip ones there bad to the bone
Great video
17:40 killed me 😂
right down the road from ya all
Milwaukee tools! Diablo blades!
Why would you not get rid of the massive strut cup and do a flat mount? That thing is at least 2" that could be up travel
Great video, camera work is good. I just wish the camera guy would not talk as much. I’ve noticed this in the past few videos. It breaks up the normal interaction of the guys working.
Your shock doesn’t have to be on the centerline of the ball joint. You can make a bracket coming off the back of the lower control arm. And it would probley give you 6 inches more travel.
can y’all make a video on y’all’s jig table?
Perfect guys ❤👍😁🔥
“I ain’t charging you for it so…… try it.” 🤣🤣
Rocker arms is what it needs, imo.
You gotta get some Diablo blades. Carbide tipped! You’ll cut tubes for days with one blade!
Damn I think I want to change careers 😮

Cool 😎 !
Love it so funny Billy going to have to hold on his eye balls might fight out going so fast
SRC coming for the money 💰
when are y'all going to have a new update on Billy's car
Lets gooooo!!!!!!👍👍👍👍👍👍
Awesome job man good video to 😎😎😎😎😎😎🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
Put some majic in this one boys!
This might be stupid; if so, sorry. Why do you not just make a bracket that lowers the shocks mounting place to a lower position?

That would be a down grade.❌

@freedomfox8183 I think i remember hearing them say they were going to have to move the rack for the procharger but now they wont
@@freedomfox8183 procharger blower motors are easier to tune as the boost curve is rpm dependent so you just use timing to control power/traction
The question was answered at the end of the video anyway😂
You can tune a Piano with that tube. But..... Can you tune a Fish?!?!? Who knows the reference?!?!? Waiting.....
Still Waiting 😒😒
REO Speedwagon .
Get diablo blades they will blow your mind
I wasn’t prepared for the guy in the compressor room…
This thing is gonna be a hammer
😎👍
Should never took that long and I'm sure Billy didnt think it would have either
Progress..
Show me what you got.😂😂😂🎉🎉🎉🎉
Need to name that car "white cheddar"
Tsr after hours calender shoot
😎😎😎😎😎😎
Jason what happened to motivational Mondays?
My EYES!!!!
Ole Boy Brad (I think?) has stuck a saw blade or two in his day lol
Love the channel but that trauma dude in blue shorts he'll na😂🙈🙈🙈🙈🤣🤣😎stick to the camaro😅 lol
Aftwr you about loose a thumb from a disk explosion you learn
They don't seem too thrilled to be working on this car lol
Just doesn't seem like that style strut is going to work out unless the ride height is raised a few inches probably should just have coil overs and upper a arms to keep it low with lots of travel
They want up travel.. not something coil overs do well.
@@Davespackey should just go with the coilover setup the s10 has way more travel without the Ford style struts
Titanium firewall
It's a Camaro!!!
Is it going to be a big tire car?
Last time i lit a firecracker in the shop the big big boss happened to walk around the corner the instant it went off with me standing there with that look on my face. He was not happy at all because the owners happened to be there that day unbeknown to me. I didn't get fired though. Should have seen him jump ...kinda made it worth it all.

You could cut the top of the cup off
