The race video is dropping next weekend, so make sure you go to The Humble Mechanic's latest build video to see what we're up against! ua-cam.com/video/aFxjst5ELfw/v-deo.html
This reminds me of how a lot of street cars were built back the the early 80s. Awesome series.
What was the fix for the fuel pump issue?
You guys didn't show the oil feed for the turbo
Aren't you guys cheating by having Christopher do all the heavy lifting?
Christopher is hilarious 😂 his chemistry with tall Ben is great.
i was thinking the same thing, laughed this whole episode
Really been enjoying this series. I find videos with constraints, like the budget limit on this one, are more enjoyable to watch than other videos where it is just a pile of new parts being put on a car. Seeing you guys be scrappy mechanics is a lot more relatable than some of the other builds lol.
NEXT UP RACE DAY BOYS!!!!
Hi
@@chansemiller1138 HI!!!
Hope you're ready for 5.7 liters of turbocharged federal democratic republic, my friend!
As much as I love both channels I gotta cheer for the home town hero as I live in wake county too, hope you win Charles.
hi
The star spangled Banner playing while that LS is purring! Merica lol
“It’s not gonna blow up but that doesn’t mean it won’t catch fire. Wouldn’t be the first time for me.”
“Excuse me…?”
Epic!
Lmao
Incredible video! Loving these long format episodes you guys have moved back to. Can't wait for the conclusion.
The fact that you guys named a chapter most replayed is iconic
Bruh yt does that automatically
“When you’ve got a turbo charged LS motor, what more do you really need?”
Tires. You need tires.
but think of the burnouts
And axles. And a driveshaft. And a transmission.
@@michaelblacktree and brakes. brakes please for the love of god brakes!
Instruction unclear, added a L O B E Y C A M T U N E
@@michaelblacktree plenty of people running stock with all of those, unless they have a 4l60e
you know what i appreciate about this channel compared to most other car youtuber channels? The music selection. Always so nice and classier. 👌
Strictly watching this series for the chapter titles 😆
"not the math type of Asian" 😂
The music over the engine starting was absolute genius!
I pledge alligiance, to this LS1, and to its turbo, and all of the tires it will slay, every track day forevermore.
The Star Spangled Banner timing was HILARIOUS!
That clutch is about to leave the chat
In this episode, we transform the Camaro front end into a Mazda smile.
This.
The 24:31 "i'm sorry?" is the hardest i have laughed in weeks.
Your fueling issue could be the way the those 4th gen camaros return fuel at the filter instead of the end of the fuel rail. Running a dedicated return all the way to the engine and plumb into the side opposite of the inlet that way all 8 injectors have consistent and adequate pressure. Thats my best guess. Love the build and the channel. Keep it up!
The music starting and stopping had me cracking up! And Luke's reply "I'm sorry??!" Hahaha great video all around
Hands down you guys are my favorite channel,and I know there's alot of people cringing about some of the work done to the camaro but making it happen for race day is a real life scenario! And we've all been there....I can't wait to see the race,best of luck G&G
The ghost cam sounds amazing!!!
The editing throughout this series was hilariously perfect😂
I would have never expected for GandG to go from just straight power over any sort of handling or tires lol
The LS does that for people 😂
With the race already over if you keep the car try fixing it for E85. Would love to see that! I definitely think the wiring to the pump has too much resistance. The Demon uses 12 guage wire and I think the Camero uses 16 guage wire. I don't have numbers to calculate voltage drop.
New injectors might also help.
Dude there's no way 12 vs 16 gauge can drop voltage that much. Voltage drop is like a couple percent at the most.
@@dkis8730 the Demon pump draws somewhere between 15-25 amps. I could get an exact number when looking online. Anything more than 10 feet of wire and you'd get at least 5-10% drop depending on various factors (primarily amperage). It isn't a lot, but it could be just enough.
@@dkis8730it's more then you think I have the 450 and the stock wiring on my truck started melting. I now have 10 gauge to the pump.
Pro tip. Clean the hub corrosion with a wire brush and apply anti sieze before installing wheels or spacers.
For the fans sake please do an episode of this on the dyno,we have to see what it's capable of (no extra money/parts) just tuned.
We need that
Probably 410 wheel
ngl it wasn't moving as good as I thought it would. I had a lil 2.4 that made 280whp all motor. idk wtf these americans are building their engines out of it but they dont make shit for everything they have.
What are you rambling about? This is a 25 year old car with a truck engine, an eBay turbo, and a $7500 budget
No cam, head or intake work is gonna kill dump numbers . All that really matters for them at this point is that is doesn’t blow lol
She's mint for the budget and purpose👍. Nice work.
I truly believe this is one of their best build series. prob have to do with all the murica vibes XD
what i like about this series is you can see the REAL WORLD issues most of us 'blue collar' enthusiasts deal with. I make good money but i have a house, multiple cars, kids, etc and cant afford to just go buy a $50k+ vehicle and toss another $30k in parts in it to make it fast...toss money at a shop who turn-key's your fast car and you just go pick it up. The fact that this old Camaro is in pretty much the exact shape most of us would buy it if we wanted a budget RWD tire shredder...and the parts are eBay/budget upgrades is pretty cool.
Two big American thumbs up for this series, I'm putting a bigger turbo in my 2016 Focus ST likely next month and it'll still only hit about 500whp with a much higher parts cost than this Camaro...if i didnt have to fit two kids seats in the back, I'd be gettin myself a Camaro ^_^
This is so awesome! I watched this twice and reminded a bunch! Great content! Can't Wait till next week!
At 19:48 a quick tip for stuck wheels, use a rubber coated deadblow on the backside of the wheel and 9/10 times it’ll pop right off. If a when doesn’t fall off first thing I do is grab a deadblow and tap it if nothing I give her a good swing and that gets it most of the time
Question, what the rim and tire size on the Corvette rear wheels? What size spacer did you use to get the wheels to fit in the wheel well? How thick was the spacer? Did you have to recenter the axle? Was their any rubbing or anymore modifying you did in the wheel well? I'm planning on putting on 19 x 11 Corvette wheels on my 97 Camaro. 18x9.5 front and 19x11 rear.
I know the gen 1 coyote guys have to upgrade the injectors and whole fuel system significantly to run E85 after adding boost. Love the content and am so glad the 2nd ECM ended up working!
this is what i was thinking. they’re gonna at least need bigger injectors. if not bigger fuel lines.
This was sublime...the editing, music and good vibes from Christopher! Thank you!
Chris is the bomb
I love this build series. It's probably my favorite so far.
Nice thing about ls stuff is being able to hange the over/underspeed timing to make it chop or chop hard.
13:28
I work as an electronic technician for an aerospace company. Building wiring harnesses, giant refrigerator sized computer cabinets, and other items like that. Yes... veeerry satisfying work. Throw on some music, or an audiobook, and my entire day flies by.
Lmao, the star spangled banner was great. This is gonna win the drag race, but i dunno about the rally and autocross 😂 no tires, no brakes and no suspension lol. These vids are great and Chris is cool
Mustang on autocross for sure. Camaro on drag race. Rally cross is the toss up and probably depends more on the driver. I'm going Mustang on rallycross and overall winner.
@@Nathan_King yeah im thinking mustang on autocross, camaro drag race too. Rallycross is going to be the decider for sure
Yeah! I haven't watched part 3 of the 'stang gang yet, but seeing what they did to their suspension etcetera I grudgingly agree...
Whoever clutch holds up will probably take the drag race. HM setup going to take the other 2 events. This will be a good vid to watch.
@73gent16 good point. or the camaro could easily mess up on the launch by just spinning the tires. It's not a given either way.
90% chance that clutch says nah in the drag race
21:11 did you put those wheels back on with those discs covered in penetrating fluid?
May check voltage. GM Alternators often drop voltage at RPM. ESP. cheap reman auto store alternators. My autozone alt would quit charging at 5k rpm or so. Good alternator, or a big pulley to slow it down fixes it. The fuel pump doesn't put out diddly when the voltage drops. Those intank pumps are garbage anyway. The inline AEM400's are what you want IMO. Also E50 fuel will go a LONG way if you are having fuel supply voltages. Its a much better fuel than 93.
Edit- i was watching before ecu. Bricked. Wideband senaor is def not more that 6-8 inches from housing lol def would have used br7ef plugs which usually parts store has in stock and it's a non protruding plug. I re-pinned my 98 harness for a 0411 pcm from a truck which is a much better ecu and doesn't brick and take a crap as easily also.
PB blaster 💪
Saved me sooo many times on my 98 Sti wagon
I must admit I enjoyed your "America" music. (:
That Camaro looks to be pushing and moving.
What'll be next? The race?
Damn Bill! That is so awesome! Good work mate! I’m from Australia and I grew up with mum in a ‘69 Mach1, Dick Johnson racing a fox body in Australia’s V8 Tintop racing series and just love them. I’m in a Whipple ‘18 Stang now and will end up with an old school Mustang when I retire to tinker on. I would love a Fox Body, but they are very rare here. Most likely will get a ‘65 notch back. Great work sharing your loves, inspires us all!
That was a very good video, it's very interesting to see how things are made step by step
rad guys and u can always get some 110 octain race gas that will help a lil and u could always dry fog it lol peace n love guys keep it rad stay safe and build on ... ps regardless that is a rad catfish just need the other corvette wheels up front lol na but cant weight for this outcome as yal and Charles are some really cool vibbin pplz n i respect that .. l8z famz
I hope you cleaned that PB Blaster off those pads and rotors
power with little traction. are you guys able to do boost by gear?????? think it would be good for the rally cross
I wonder how many budget, "D-I-Why?" turbo setups this series will inspire. 😅
For future reference. Put toothpaste on the hood dump, set hood on hood dump, see exactly where you need to cut
Yeahhhh! That satisfying sound of the bald eagles! Can't wait for the race!!
As soon as you guys said hellcat pump I was like well I hope they get a relay and some type of voltage booster to isolate it from the rest of the electrical system. Live and learn.
Jfc dropping the oil pan doesn’t take long. Worth a few minutes to keep shavings out of it 😅
I love that when it started you guys played the star spangled banner
if you run bolt on spacers always torque the spacer to the hub and the wheel to the spacer
I wonder if any of that slag hanging down the charge pipes will make its way through the turbo
So I can’t wait to see the end of this series but I’m thinking I already see the outcome here. It’s crazy how light this beast is all stripped out! Stoked for the match up.. she’s gonna rip! Love for both vehicles in the build off
Just a tip when drilling the oil pan for a return line, its helpful to use grease on the bit while drilling slowly to catch the shavings, same with threading.
I doubt the pump need any more voltage if so does it seem like it would be stated that it runs at 16v or whatever it wants but I assume it just needs more current
Would love to see this and mustang get a proper build series each after this. Both are rough but with TLC, an actual decent amount of time, and some extra cash, both could be turned into neat street cars that would make for a good viewing experience and give y'all some different kinds of fun
Sounds like y'all are running out of fuel injector. Tuned in!
hitting stuck wheels from behind on the lip of the rim with a deadblow will nearly always break them free first try
True LS budget build. It doesn’t need to be perfect. As long as it works 👍🏽
To all the idiots saying "u dont need a relay" "why do u need a relay""hellcats dont have a relay" "i know everything about electricity" clearly not u idiots when your have a bigger aftermarket pump in a older car like that your powering it thru tiny 16 gauge wire if not smaller you run a relay that takes power straight from your battery and give the pump the proper voltage and only uses the factory tiny wiring to turn on the relay to send the proper voltage to the bigger fuel pump
Ben wearing a cardigan and khakis working on his car is too funny haha
Are any of the extra parts for sale interested in that grill insert lol
Hell, that’ll give Ruby a run for her money, right there 🕶️🇺🇸🕶️🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Usually cam sensor will not fore the first time then second time fire once it realized its 180 out. Should be able to do RTT with that new ecu also which will make life easier.
RTT on stock ecu, isn't worth the hassle, Just use a datalog.
Thank you for making the day that much better G&G
Two totally different approaches between you and the hubble mechanic. Great
can you do a volvo 240 race track build? with the redblock thats in it?
Someone say sloppy mechanics
🤣🤣🤣
This episode was so emotional, trying to start the car, i was laughing hard, so entertaining :D Keep on doing what you do guys i so much appreciate you, i've been following you for a long time.
Greetings from Hungary:D
Bruh I died when the star spangled banner started to play in the background 😂
The fuel line is either not big enough or your fuel pressure regulator isn't regulating pressure properly
"Beefiest spacers I've ever seen, these are like inch and a half"
My 88 nissan hardbody over here with 3 inch spacers 😂
I lost it when I realized the star spangled banner was playing as it started for the first time 😂
pump is probably fine, my guess is the injectors couldnt handle the extra fuel and were at their limit
So, the easy way to get off stuck wheels is to put a couple lug nuts back on and back them of a turn or so and then lower the car so the wheel has weight on it. If that alone doesn’t do it, a whack or 2 with a sledge hammer (with a chunk of wood in between) against the wheel (with the weight of the car still on it) does it EVERY time. Great video as always. Thank you 😊
Love the im lazy pipe that goes threw the hood and doesn't take the time to bring the exhaust out the bottom of the car! Nice build, poor choice of quality when it comes to stuff like the exhaust. I have a garage that is way worse as far as the building goes but one thing I don't do is cut corners on stuff like tools and parts installed like turbo, exhaust, charge pipes, or anything installed.
I wonder how they plan to keep dust and dirt out of the up-pipe while doing rallycross... can't wait to find out lol
More air flowing out to keep anything from falling in lol
Should’ve just done 93 and octane booster at that point
After the race you guys need to give this thing a proper tune!.. if it survives.
Even the stock fuel pump needed a direct wire from the battery. It was one of the mods from back in the day.
The gears and gasoline boys are hooked on the chop-chop🤣😂
Dude I feel the frustration with the fuel pump I'm having similar issues on my foxbody mustang
I thought y’all were gonna end the video at the pcm issue. Lmfao
Love this series 😎
Did I missed the wastegate install?? 🤔
Cardboard template taped and folded from the fender into engine bay will make finding the proper hole location much easier.
Was thinking do you really need e85 for the 3 races? lol
They call e85 budget race fuel but when you have to buy injectors and a fuel pump idk 🤔
It's absolutely budget race fuel, if your planning for more than one race. In which case race gas is more economical.
@@8SecSleeper Karen, the know-it-all spreading her knowledge. 😆
that "im sorry?" cut is cinematic perfection
Best trick I've found for removing a seized wheel is to take a good sized rubber mallet and smack the inside of the tire. It generates a lot more outward force. I've tried kicking the wheel like that until it hurt my foot then grabbed a mallet and it came off in a couple swings.
She runs but it’s hard to say who will actually win over all I’m sure the Camaro will out run the mustang but as far track and rally I think mustang has it because humble mechanic put a lot of work into the suspension and caster camber tuning also added nitrous. In my opinion I feel the mustang will win
You won't need E85 to beat that 4.6 even on nos
i hope David is okay, that looks like a monitor on his right tricep?
I love how the edits have been more and more memey lately
The national anthem should always be sung by angels. Lol
ohnoo, I can hear the clutch starting to slip in the last clips :(
