    In addition to shop towels in intake, I like to use 2" tape covering the enitre opening. You can use a anti-vibration thread sealer all in one on the bolts as an option. No clutch cover dowels?? Always nice to start with a clean slate, all parts and work area clean. 👍

    • @AndyKruseChannel
      @AndyKruseChannel  Рік тому

      Yeah, I think that tape would work a little better, next time! This clutch does not use dowels, the clutch bolts have a shoulder on them to hold the clutch like the dowels would have done. :)

    You should make some of your videos longer! I know a lot of people like shorter videos but real car guys can watch this kind of content for hours, especially during the winter months! 30-45 minute videos would be great!

    • @AndyKruseChannel
      @AndyKruseChannel  Рік тому +8

      My videos are geared more towards how-to and less about entertainment. This is partially to make them relevant years from now, instead of something that was funny 10 years ago. I've been thinking about trying to both how-to and also "fun" videos, but it's tough to come up with content, and since I've done 99.9% of these cars by my self, things can only be so funny when you're by yourself, you ready need another person in the shop to expand on those kinds of videos. And since I work a normal job, it really limits the available time I have to make videos, especially if I want a friend to join in. :)

      Andy, that makes perfect sense and I appreciate that about you and your channel. To the point and plenty informative.
      But to second what rusty said, if you did ever do longer videos I'd watch them too, even though I'm not quite sure on what detail you could add since you add plenty already.
      I put a new engine into my 69 last year, but watching this gave me a couple ideas to do it a little more simply. Keep at it man!

      I try to keep the entertaining stuff for the videos and keep the boring stuff out as to not force people to watch something that requires little to no skill. I try to balance interesting content with "this is good for people to know'" kind of content, and frankly some of this stuff is neither. Lastly, there are some tasks that really could be done a 100 different ways and my way of doing some of those tasks may not be the correct way or the best way. I'm just like everyone else and I can get a little lazy with some things and I have no interest in showing that stuff as the finished product is sometimes more important than the journey. :)

And sometimes making the video I didn't enjoy working on the Harley as much. Definitely super nice if you can keep that balance and still enjoy the work on the car and build a brand at the same time and make some parts and sell them I think it's all good man keep going. I'm still searching for a Mustang I haven't found the right one I don't want one that is turn key and done too much and I don't want one that needs major restored.

    Andy...just found your channel...great work! Really interested in the dual fan setup. Any chance you know the overall dimension of the "thinkness" of the fan/shroud after your mods? I put a 390 into my 67 Mustang and have run into the same issue you did with the water pump pulley and the single fan motor.

    • @AndyKruseChannel
      @AndyKruseChannel  Рік тому

      Max thickness is 5.5", but the thickness where your water pump pulley is located is on 4.75". This is because the extra thickness for the two electric fans are not in the middle of the Rad, they're off to each side, giving a little bit of space back to you for your water pump pulley to be located. :)

    hi Andy , great video as always , I’ve been reading about the T5 and it’s fragility when increasing the output of the motor , do you have any thoughts ?

    • @AndyKruseChannel
      @AndyKruseChannel  Рік тому +1

      The fragility of this trans is absolutely on my mind, but I'll be fine for a few reasons. When I was doing the rebuild on my T5, I upgraded and replaced some of the known failure points with better parts. The trans is rated for about 330 ftlbs of torque, but that's the rated value and it can absolutely see more but it depends on how and when you apply that higher Tq value. If decided to spend my time doing 5k clutch drops, I'll shred the trans in no time. Maybe not on the first try, but sending all the TQ I've got to a stationary gear system all at once is exactly how I'll break it. However, if I need to do a sweaty burnout, feathering the clutch as I send all that power through the trans will push that breaking point out to a later date, much later. And that's the worst of it, because while I'm driving, everything is moving and "happier" when higher TQ values are being seen by the trans. Even some spirited driving will be fine, because everything is already turning inside the trans and I'm not dumping all the power on a single tooth that isn't ready for it. These trans have been used in road race cars for decades with essentially the same internal parts I'm using and high power applications.
      Long story short, as long as I limit my 5k clutch drops, this trans will be just fine. But if not, it's an opportunity to upgrade and more content for my channel!! :)

    Andy, Just curious if you checked to see if the bellhousing is within the .005 spec of run out needed for the T-5 transmission so that the input shaft will not be under any excess stresses to the tapered bearings. When the bellhousing is found to be out of spec, it is necessary to use offset dowel pins to correct the bellhousing location. I will be installing a T-5 this winter and I've been watching videos about indexing the bellhousing. If you have also watched videos about this check, is it something you feel is necessary?
    Thank you for all the videos you have published.

    • @AndyKruseChannel
      @AndyKruseChannel  Рік тому

      Tremec recommends the measuring for total run-out, and I too have seen videos where they measure it. I have no interest in the liability of telling someone not to do it, but I did not measure for run-out.

    • @nitesky001
      @nitesky001 Рік тому

      Well hopefully your bellhousing is within spec or your T-5 will feel the stresses.
      Side note: I never imagined that a disclaimer for liability was needed or I would have worded my question differently. I'm sorry my wording put you in that position. Too bad that the US court system has devolved to a point where car enthusiasts have to state disclaimers to each other.
