How awesome that "Lincoln Electric" is working with you! Good things sometimes happen to good people. So nice to see these days...
Agree, very nice of Lincoln!!!
Love to see a young man, Aidan wants to learn. Shows there is promise for our youth for the future.
My husband & I look forward to your show. Your like an artist working on this vehicle. Each step is a masterpiece. Keep up the good work.
I CONCUR!!!!
Chad great job teaching Aiden . .... when I install an engine without transmission. .... Put a bellhousing bolt one each side , then slide a 2x4 behind the engine , under the bolts... will hold up the back of the engine ...... Also take off the distributor cap , to make room and avoid cracking the cap....
Your idea with the bellhousing bolts are good if the car is already sitting on the ground. In this case however the car may need to be raised or lowered to do some finish work. On a Chevy, the Dist. cap needs to be in place to get correct clearance, Etc. for firewall mods in case it's needed.
@@rickhettwer854 I take the cap off every time I install an engine , so it doesn't get bumped and cracked. if you need to measure clearance or anything just re install cap . I just take it off during installation .
@@randyhontz60 Yes of course, I would also remove the cap if i new i were to use it for other than a mock-up.
I started watching about 3 weeks or so ago . Been hooked ever since .its going to be a nice ride
You guys need a foam motor for mock ups and test fittings. Awesome progress guys 👍🏻

Great to see another step in the evolution of the "Cab-over". And every step has it's challenges. The beauty of any custom venture. Great work.
me and my hubby watch you everyday i love seeing you teaching aiden keep up the great shows
Love the build and the education. That old creative problem solving skill is so valuable.
Chad and Jolene are Artists. Love your work! Your instructional technique is even-keeled and excellent in taking away the learner's anxiety and keeping your apprentice from being afraid to try new things and messing up. Cool beans! The Master teaches the student. Excellent job! Great video tapping.
Can’t go wrong with a small block Chevy! So glad to see you teaching Aiden! These are experiences that will serve him well in life.
I'm so glad that the engine in now decided upon. It looks like that you have all kinds of room for that engine and working on it. As for a set of hammer and dollies I believe that it's princes auto up there in Canada or there are some half way decent kits on Ebay that are really reasonable to purchase. It's really looking good with all the latest things that you have done. How far are you going on this build before that you go onto something else or will you get it running and go through the entire build ? Either way is good. The lessons and knowledge that Ayden has gotten couldn't be bought in schools because they wouldn't bust out of the NORMAL because they've lost their creativness.
Put in a 45° piece above the lower firewall to the upper firewall. This way you will be able to see all the work you did and you might have to remove the upper fire if your motor is removed which you said will be put in.
Those trips should be good too. I wish I had the set up I had in the 70s on my 327 they worked great! Now I am looking for another 6 pack for my 62- 283 with matching numbers on the heads but they want alot of money for that set now.
Wow - wow! I've been unable to watch for several weeks and I am trying to catch up. Over 97K subscribers. The magic 100K is within reach. Excellent work Chad. So glad that people get to watch you mentor and share what I call your vision and creativity with a young person. Your ability to make the complex simple is amazing. Love how you emphasize safety. I am so happy to be back watching.
Can't say it enough. Great teacher and great student. Your not only taking the time to explain what your doing but giving him a chance to do it.
You are a great teacher Chad the world needs more people like you dude👍🇬🇧
I like to watch how Chad has Aiden there learning as we are all learning watching a Kustom Truck gets built. For a while there I didn't know where this build was going? It's taking shape now.
There is another truck that's on UA-cam that was built similar, but not really because Hiltz has a Mercury the other one on UA-cam has a truck hand built truck bed.
Any how glad to see a youngster on the Hiltz team 💪
Love your hard work and all the sweet fabrications you do on all your projects my friend keep u the awesome work I learned a lot of ways to do fabricating much better and easier on myself keep up the good work
I don't watch TV but I watch you guys everyday. Hats off to your talent and attitude, thanks for sharing your adventures.
It really makes me feel good to see you taking the time to teach Aiden the skills he will require to do whatever he choses to do in his life and to also see that he is interested in learning. What a wonderful joint effort watching you two working together on this project, it renews my faith in the younger generation and for society as a whole. Thank you for sharing and thank you Jolene for a great video.
Hats off to Lincoln supporting one of the best car builders in the world!!!! Congratulations Chad and Jolene I wish you all the best! Thanks for another lesson.
I would think it would be prudent to get the motor installed and then do the custom metal work around the engine and exhaust, and all the other things needed- you could make a really cool surround out of metal! Great Work!
Good fit. Six pack will look good, Hope it has a Cam.
The engine for the FORDOMerc is being revealed and test installed today. Chad and Aidyn working while Jolene does her fantastic video.
I’m glad you are getting something from Lincoln. You deserve it!!!
It’s great to see what engine you are using for this piece of art.
Chad, you have a good helper. He is learning a lot from you. Jolene is doing a great job as always.
good idea to take a moment and confirm the engine can be installed. You could always make the whole front end tip forward. I had a few old Corvettes that had hoods that tip forward and it made it nice to work on the car...and there was a lot of work they required
Second that
Your custom vehicle are a work of art. Keep up the great work.
Love watching you guys work as a team such a true blessing
I have been watching their videos for a long time and every one has been entertaining. This one was no exception. Jolene’s camera work continues to zoom in on what we like to see. Thank you for that and give Fina an extra hug for me
Great video glad to see your getting use out of the magmatic level I sent you 👍
Chad, The way an engine should fit is so that the drive shaft universals [hooks couplings] is 1. Line up, 2. both must work at the same angle ! This is very important; If the couplings do not drive at the same angle, the proppeller shaft will vibrate.!!!!! If you can not tip the engine to attain the couplings to work at the same angle, then the rear axle angle has to be remounted to get the couplings to be at the same angle. One shoulg not try to fit the engine level. If you try to level the engine before the weight of the engine is on the mountings, the engine will not be level when it rests on the chasis. pardon my inglish please.
Great update! The fountain of knowledge Aydin will take from this experience will be AMAZING! Bad Chad, Jolene & Fina are THE BEST!!!
Plenty of room in that engine bay for a big blower! 👍😉
So when you open the hood you could be looking into a beautiful deep carpeted trunk with a built in cooler for at least thirty pounds of ice and a couple of 32 packs of beer. The ice drips onto the engine for added cooling. Or you could make the first ever “Rumble Hood” Seats with the cooler for an arm rest.
Ayden seems very happy with all you are teaching him!! Awesome!
Yes and someday I can see Aidan building his own street rods and custom cars!
You are a great teacher Chad. Thanks to the three of you for another kickass show !
Always nice to see the engine go in and sit in the frame, and good firewalls working well guys 👍
Those vice grips you got clamped on that cherry picker isn't safe ... especially when there pointing up..the reason I say is because I had a motor jacked up in the air like you did fixed to install in a 68 mustang the transmission was still in car an I reached down to make sure torque converter was pushed all the way in an just as I was raising back up I bumped the motor an the gravity let them vice grips fall back around an the motor fell..I meen slammed fast an hard in side of the car..I was with in seconds an inches of having my head an upper part of my body smashed..probably would have killed me an I was working by myself nobody wouldn't have even new ...it scared me so much that I left it like it was turned out the light in the shop locked door an went home freaking out an didn't go back to work on it for about a week ...an I made sure I took them vice grips off the cherry picker never clamp a pair back on them...an took a good friend with me when I worked on it.....just saying from experience with them dam vice grip on that release screw on that cherry picker brought back a night mare for me.....Truck looks cool an bad ass👍👍👍👍👍👍👍✌️✌️✌️
Chad you might want to put the bell housing & transmission. So you'll know what clearance you need. Great job everyone still watching and learning.
This is such a fantastic build and to be watching each day as it progresses is an amazing opportunity. Thank you Chad, Jolene and Aiden.
Love what you're doing Chad . Your firewall doesn't need the offset .It will prevent removing the engine . Just follow the the angle of the cowl bracing to finish the firewall . The flywheel and distributor won't be blocked for a straight lift .
Good job guys, engine installation is fun. I’ve done it with brother-in-law on Oldsmobile engines on 1950s Oldsmobiles, and small block Chevy’s in early 1950’s trucks. It’s fun.
Despite obstacles you remain positive and supportive of Adrian and his learning style. Far and few like you Chad
That will be a good cool day in the shop with all that liquid sunshine coming down. Keep up the fine work.
Although not a car builder, I did use the clothes hanger trick welding a gap on a utility trailer, worked perfectly! Always learning from you Chad! Thank you and the best channel on UA-cam so thanks goes to Jolene for that! Can’t wait to see how big this channel gets knowing I have been here since the beginning!
Interested to see what type of motor/trans is being installed. Going to need to be kinda powerful due to the weight/ hauling of this vehicle. Keep up the great content.
A HELLCAT?
It is so nice to watch Aiden come out of his shell. He really seems like a good kid headed in the right direction. I hope he sticks around with the best teacher and role model on you tube
nice work guys can u still get the motor in and out when you put the top half of the fire wall in..?..
After you lower the front end back onto the ground then the rear of the Engine will have to be lowered to make it Level
I’m glad you tilted the hood hinges back! I thought someone was going to hit those. Nice job on the cabover. Aidyn sure is picking up pretty quick! Sure miss seeing Jolene every once in a while. She sure does an excellent job on the production end!! Keep up the great work!
Progression is coming along very well every day - a superb build. Enjoying seeing Aiden's continued progress and learning fabrication skills in 5hr building process. You're a very humble teacher Chad, enjoyable watching for us. Of course, great videoing and producing Jolene 👍
Thank you for the longer videos.
So cool to see that Lincoln sent you the equipment and gear for your team. Good gear for a very good team. The Hiltz goodwill has paid off so smart on your part. Put the effort in , you have and they have recognized how much you have promoted their product. That is smart business Chad😊
Great progress. It is really coming together quickly. These daily videos are great. Keep it up.
Wow, things are looking good. The more you put on, the better it is looking.
I couldn't imagine being an apprentice and having the whole of youtube watching me. He is doing great.
Can’t help but to respect you Chad. Down to earth and speaking truth. Like your outlook on life. More people should try to emulate that
Its great watching this guy solve problems as they pop up. This truck is going to be great
About 2 minutes in and i’m guessing a notch in the lower firewall to get it done. Good spacing on the mounts…
Now to see if my guesses were close.
Hoping to watch young Aiden one day designing and fabricating a vehicle from his own imagination! Teaching our youth common sense is first and foremost VERY IMPORTANT and also that you can do whatever you can dream up!! I foresee Aiden becoming a young artist and a very talented welder/ fabricator! Great teaching skills!👍👍
In the engine compartment there is enough space in height, you could also put a nice big compressor 💥
Great job guys 👍
Greetings from Switzerland
The smooth flowing camera work following with the narration and demonstration seems to really facilitate the class to be understandable, educational, and memorable
You guys are doing a fantastic job! I’m still lookin for my own project car to work on
Wonderful show today and congratulations on the engine mounts already being built into the car. Thanks for sharing again.😊
Truck is looking great, it is very entertaining to watch you build this truck.
Watching Chad and Adien work side by side from making the templates to putting the engine in reminds me of my dad teaching me to build homes and work on cars
Keeping it going I hope you can clear that upper firewall to get that SBC back out
I love how peacefully bad chad work without use bad language God bless you all and famely greetings from Holland 😁
Awesome, the firewall is looking good. Good luck, rock on and peace out.
Its best to keep the engine down low on the hoist until its ready to go in place ,..and over extension can cause an upset!!!!.. caution!!
Ive seen it happen where the engine is ahead of the front wheels of the hoist,...crash the engine to the floor!
I enjoy watching you build things .
Chad, That trip-deuce setup is a little more than that 305 can handle especially if it has a stock cam and internals. If I'm not wrong the 305 was made to lower the corporate fuel mileage average, it was never meant to be a powerhouse engine. If you have a 327 or 350 they would benefit from the trip-deuce setup. You need to maybe to run that magnet across some sandpaper in case it has a clear sealant that's blocking contact with the metal.
We put a heavy piece of 8 inch solid pipe just above the wheels on the jack end to add more weight to keep the jack from bucking.
I like the way you are getting things done on this project. It appears you'll be painting and driving this cab-over truck before you know it. Great job Jolene on the camera.
Aiden is learning so much and is a very smart assistant, Chad keeps moving forward on this project. Exciting to see the progress everyday, keep up the great work.
Nice work, cannot wait to see the finished product.
Wow, the engine is being installed already. I didn’t expect it so soon. Way to go Chad!
Test fit for firewall cutting, then it comes out.
Can any tell me what type of engine ? I missed the first part . but now hooked lol great build stay safe chad 😁
Does it matter
Small block Chevy
@@rowdy4314 I only asked if any one knew no it does not
@@thetrannyshop5596 ok thanks
305 with triple dual carbs
hey chad if you want more control of that jack weld a little handle perpendicular on the end of the handle for the jack it will help give you more control of the jack and give you less mishaps.
waiting on another exciting buid with aiyden and chad...thank you chad and jolene for your filming
Great job guys watching you install the motor ,it's coming along ,looking good
This is a double insult to both Ford and Mercury fans. You are a Closet Ford Man. I've been with you since day one, and I am sorry to say this is a real downer for me. That line about parts being available is a cop-out, if you can not find parts for a ford 302 or 351 w you are not looking, and having bought a 351w and not use it is unforgivable. Bastardization of any brand-name car should not be encouraged by acceptance. This is going to be a tough decision because I love your work and I brag to my American friends that you are a Canadian.
Hello Bad Chad, It is great how you work with Ayden and show him the trade of Custom Building. My kids love watching you build on your creations, keep up the great job.
A follower from Oregon USA
Scissor jacks are great for holding the back of the engine, they are nice when building mounts as well when the trans is attached
Nice thing about the older chevy engine setup is it didn’t matter if it was a 4/6 or 8 cylinder they all bolted up to the bell and in most cases the same motor mounts.
It amazes me every time I see another video of the quality and vision you have Chad! Thanks for another great video Jolene!
Glad to see the student learning more in every video by a great teacher
Nice. Those pesky bell housings always in the way. Great video. Thanks.
Positive energy flows from the great north to help water the nutty land. Stay positive the energy is needed!
ANOTHER DILEMMA? No! Just another OPPORTUNITY to do great things ! Love the channel!
Will the third carb with air cleaner fit under how you want to bring firewall out?
You guys are really moving right along. Excellent work!
Glad to see you checked to see if the motor would fit. Just make sure if you need to take out the distributer it will not hit the metal
It looks kind of cool with it sitting up in the air like a Gasser look. Great job guys glad to hear that a small block Chevys going in that baby
Wow on the firewall! Looks fantastic!
Did Aidan have any previous welding experience before starting with you? Did he take tech classes in high school ? He sure is catching on fast if not.
Many of us would like to know a little more about Aiden.
Love to see an Engine - even a mock-up - going in! I know the 6 Pack will look cool when it gets installed with the 5-speed. 😉
Like the small block and 5 speed for this project.
Can’t wait to see what engine you have chosen. A big blower would fit under that hood!
