Yay! Unfortunately my worst week in life ever, my dog of 8.5yrs passed away peacefully on Wed am with me by his side petting him. Thanks for making videos, today I need it, I'm barely functioning.
Tony is an honest to goodness hot rodder. No multi million dollar shop with all the latest and greatest tech. No massive sponsors making the whole videos look like one big commercial. Just a guy and his pals working on junk trying to make them go fast and look cool. Tony is a guy I could hang around with for hours, talking cars and talking sh#t.
when the sponsors are "we got a fuckin A/C unit for the shop so we don't die" and not "snap on gave us a quarter mil of tools" I respect it a lot more ngl
Tony and Barb work together so well. You can feel how much they respect each other as friends, they remind me of how my friend and I work on our cars together. It doesn’t matter who’s car it is, you do it because you enjoy each other’s company, and you’re love for building hot rods!
Through experience, then from advice from Kevin Oeste, I've learned that the regulator really needs to be as close to the carb as possible. I'm using the same Aeromotive dual regulator. I think you actually dodged a bullet by being forced to locate it up front instead of in the rear. Nice build, again.
That Torque Tube Assembly looked like some kind of Sith Empire fighter sitting there on the jacks 🤔 I think The Force will be strong in Snowcone 😈 It sounded BANANAS when it fired up! Keep it going boys!
I've been looking at mini-splits for a few months now and I think that' the way to go when it comes to heating and cooling a small building or room. I do a lot of work in my 2 car garage and I work all year long. I use a propane heater in the winter and a swamp cooler when it gets above 85-90. I'm in Az and while it's humid with a swamp cooler, the temp isn't too bad but I'm not a spring chicken anymore....it's time for a mini split.
having a stack through the hood reminds me of growing up with all the late 70's Vettes with either dual carbs or full on blowers coming through the hood. Killer flame jobs on top of it to bring it full circle. I learned a thing or two about them torque tubes. C5 still a bargain!
Hey there Angelo I just wanted to drop a line to let yall know I'm new to your channel and already yall are one of my absolute favorite channels. Yall keep it real and are by far the most reliable. Keep up the great work and fun times.
I been thinking about doing another s10 or c10 build. Yall have given me the Inspiration or excuse to go ahead and jump. Thanks guys. I'll be watching yall 100%
I watched you religiously every week! What makes me the happiest is hearing my wife giggle from the kitchen at your whitty one liners!! Killer episode as usual.
I love the copper nickel tubing it’s a game changer for making lines quickly!! I used to hate doing lines on cars when they come in at work but now I’m like yeah let’s do this!! lol
The camaraderie in your group is fantastic. Everyone looks like they're having a blast. One thing - could you include a line somewhere at the end of each video telling how many days/weeks the whole task has taken? The great editing makes it look like it was just 3-4 days!
@StayTunedTA 15.954 at 90.35 mph in a 1966 Studebaker with a sbc 350 pieced together with junk parts, other guys were tossing out. Had a blast, and I was the slowest guy there!
Man I love this channel and it’s so awesome to see how far Tony has come from those first days with HR. I really hope this channel blows up to 1m+ subscribers, no one deserves it more than Tony.
For years now I have had a fantasy about taking a the running gear from a wrecked C5/C6/C7 and putting it under a Y-body '61-'63 Pontiac Tempest or LeMans. Rather than stretching the TQ tube, I figured the easiest way to match the wheelbase would be to move the front suspension/axle forward and putting a dog house under the dash to fit the wildly front mid engine layout. Then I could have all the modern goodness under a body that didn't require me to look older, fatter and balder than I really am. 😂❤
You'd have some real firewall work to do but sounds like a killer project! Also now that i've been inside, the torque tube wouldn't be SO hard to extend.
Back in the early days I didn't think I'd like Stay Tuned what with you coming from the bigger media and all, but I've come to really like this channel. Stay real, Chiefs. I like that self-install cooling unit. Might have to buy one for the shop in Florida... Can we get a show on the rickety old cart?
Cliches and stereotypes are usually cliches and stereotypes for a reason. As a GM guy, I ADORE LSs. Yes, they're more common than I wish they were, but MAN, are they good...
I was in High School when the LS1 had been out for a few years and was dominating the conversation (and streets). It was the one everyone wanted, and I am a die hard LS fan. For me, seeing them everywhere is like the home team always winning.
I'm just splitting hairs here tony, Corvettes don't really use a transaxle persay. Transaxles are one piece ish integral units. Corvettes use a rear mounted T56 transmission with an actual differential bolted onto the back of the transmission. Keep up the awesome work fellas.
@@BuildTheSandbox A torque tube is in a completely fixed position between the engine and transmission with no movement at the ends of the shaft in regards to angle changes. A driveshaft generally speaking has the ability to account for angle changes for suspension movement or differential movement in IRS applications.
Please put a Qjet on it as an experiment, with an exhaust quiet enough(maybe use electric cutouts for when you want it loud) so that we can hear luacious Qjet moan on a nearly 7000rpm LS1...for science and stuff. ❤😊
Yo Tony! I've had my Mr Cool system for 5 years now and love it! It's rated for 1500 sqft it keeps my 720 sqft insulated metal garage as cool as I want here in Florida. Keep up the great videos! 👍
I do really enjoy your channel Tony but I can’t not say what I gotta say. My 18,000btu mr cool I diyed in my 2 car garage died after 2 summers. They did not respond to my request for support. Will my comment get deleted or will they finally decide to help me out?
@@michaelwynne4346 I posted a video on about on my channel some time back. I don’t do a lot of content. They’re welcome to stop by as long as they’re friendly. The junk AC is still hanging on my wall, embarrassed to say.
Uncle Tony, I love the channel. This episode is the reason why regular people don't HOT ROD newer Corvettes. Too Complex!! I would love a 69 or 70 Stingray. The new ones are too complicated for us old guys. Just my humble opinion. Keep up the GREAT videos!
I thought this channel may suffer a bit when Zimmy left but I gotta say, the dynamic between you 2 is absolutely terrific! Barb has really come into his own and Stay Tuned deserves every measure of success! I am happy for you Tony.
Not the only carbureted C5 vette, but still badass! A few years ago i has the opportunity to do some work as a traveling wrench for some SCCA and IMSA teams, and there was a group of guys in the SCCA events that had a yellow C5 with a carb BBC in it. Beautiful track car and very competitive.
Cervical Impingement guys still out there making killer cars with that nasty injury! Well done for not letting it stop you. (I've had mine for five years now, pinched nerves suck but over time they get ignorable. I'm hoping you get a swift and full recovery!)
Take your time, and get better Tony! I'm at home getting better from a hip replacement, and getting caught up with you and the boys. We get older and stuff wears out!
I am 70 and had a hip replacement 7 months ago and it was absolutely very positive and life changing. 1.75 hr surgery and home very early the next day. visiting nurse and physical therapy for a couple of weeks. It feels so awesome and I have ZERO pain in that hip. At my age I can't say that for the rest of me but I am doing my full workout on the weight machines and treadmill every day at the gym. Yes, every day. Get it after finding out who the best orthopedic surgeon is in your area. Get it done bro.
@@tommcguire5880 thanks, Tom. My experience has been nothing but good. I'm on my 10th day after surgery, and have been walking around unassisted since day 2, but not very far yet! And you're correct, a good surgical team is key .
Sorry about the pinched nerve. I've had that, also in my neck, and it's no joke. You're a little young for it to be caused by spinal stenosis, but that's what caused it for me. Keep an eye on that (just takes a simple X-Ray to see if you may have an issue). Keep up the great vids!
I love this build. It’s the right amount of that old school down and dirty hotrodding you guys are so good at, coupled with a car GM engineered to win at Le Mans and Daytona.
My C5s sitting in the garage on jackstands awaiting the same treatment. This video gives me hope, although i wish i had a lift. But i cant wait to see this one party!
The C5 just does everything so damn well. Thankfully the prices are leveling out and affordable again to damn near everyone. As always, thank you for the amazing content. This is by far my favorite channel and I can't wait til you reach 500k
Man, its like you guys live right inside my head. I've been watching tons of JYD, Pole Barn, and VGG and thinking about putting a carb LS into some sort of street truck. Love the project, hope this one ends up for sale :)
Usually we vacuum the mini split ac system down checking the micron level and raise before releasing the refrigerant, but it is what it is not judging Just for extra reassurance. Love the content guys awesome one of my favorite UA-cam channels.
Watching stay tuned makes me forget that I'm drowning in bills. I get a moment of bliss that I very much enjoy.
Man, I do hope it helps a bit.
@@StayTunedTA it definitely does. I enjoy every video a ton. Especially the E55 content I have an 06 e500 and love the W211 platform
Ain't that the truth...
@@kingbryant5673 I agree with you 💯 %. Angelo and the crew are flipping awesome.
Amen brother
Yay! Unfortunately my worst week in life ever, my dog of 8.5yrs passed away peacefully on Wed am with me by his side petting him. Thanks for making videos, today I need it, I'm barely functioning.
Oh man feel better. My dogs are 13 and 11. I will never be ready for them to die 😢.. cheers 🍻
I’m sorry for your loss. We lost our Golden last year to cancer. It’s so tough but it gets a little easier each day. Stay strong!
Thats the best way to say goodbye...
@1sweet_ta I'm so glad I didn't have to put him down, mother nature did peacefully when it was his time. A large breed dog.
Man, I'm really sorry to hear it. I'm sure you gave him great comfort and a nice life.

"That smelled like old horse hairy on a dirty barbecue" .....(Derek is JEALOUS!!}
HAHAH.
Smells like singed nutsack hair.
😂
Having dealt with pinched nerves for a couple decades now, I feel your pain!

Awesome that MrCOOL is supporting the channel. I just installed one in our casita and it is awesome!
TA and Tom's Refurb always make Fridays the best.
Tom rips!
Fat electrician. VGG. And Grind Hard as well.
Pole Barn and Cleetus aswell!
I'm anxiously waiting for the fox body Mustang with the Aston Martin motor to make a return. It's just absurd, and I love it.
at 33:40 I see the same clip twice with the clutch/ alignment tool decision. i love your vids! PA knows how to hotrod!
I thought I was having some kind of flashback :)
I was looking for this comment 😂😂
Always a great Stay Tuned Friday!
Thanks! Appreciate it!
I love y’all’s style Tony . Good bro shit . Hope you make it better than motor trend bs my man .
Through experience, then from advice from Kevin Oeste, I've learned that the regulator really needs to be as close to the carb as possible. I'm using the same Aeromotive dual regulator. I think you actually dodged a bullet by being forced to locate it up front instead of in the rear. Nice build, again.
Also, i saw a video where you can convert your harborfreight press into a pneumatic one. Super simple and makes it must faster to use.
Hey Tony, congratulations on winning that silver medal for Turkey!

Can't forget the jean shorts to go with the new balances!
New Balances arrived today, lol.

Let's Go bud! My New Balances just arrived! Cheers!
Tony, you're the only guy who has ever made me want a C5 Corvette.
Yeah me too but shit.. I like to repair my own shit but these drive trains are too exotic without a lift 😢

I love the look of those early Tempests, but the rope drive always scares me off. Sounds like a cool project
Love your shows after watching this I wanna go back and watch the corvette you and lucky did on HRG.
I loved that thing and its definitely inspired this build. I tried to buy it 100 times but wasn't happening.

You’re creating monsters in that shop 😂 outta be fun to watch it light up 👍🏻best 👋🏻
Happy that you got your shop cooled...

Lets goooo got the guys staying cool and keeping them from having a heat stroke 😂now they can comfortably pumping out content love to see it!
YES! It has made this place so much nicer to work in! Mr Cool rules.
Best. Show. Ever. You guys rock!
I want a mini split for my two-car garage. It would be a game changer for the hot and cold days we get here in New Hampshire.
Of course now I'm on CL and FBM looking for beat C5 project potential - good stuff guys
You guys rock. We need a big time vs stay tuned build off one day.
1999 Nassau blue metallic 6 speed with a carb - definitely a 1 of 1 corvette, very rare.
Absolutely nailed the Monster Jam/Monster Truck exhaust note! Love your work!!
As always you give home garage mechanics hope they can do things for themselves. Ty ty

Go for it! thanks for watching!
you guys are pumping out some cool stuff soo good
Love the backing tracks…..reminds me so much of Crazy Taxi👍👊🤪🤪
It has been awesome watching you guys get more and more popular. You guys deserve it.

I like how over the years you can see Tony Angelo slowly morphing into Lucky Costa!
Cleatus's ruby vette was carb swapped before he got it but was swapped back to efi when the guy sold it.
Ok, call us number 2.
Perfect.Carburetors rule. Direct injection blows. No carboned up valves and ports. Sweet.

This is how I did clutch and leaky throw out bearings when i worked at the gm dealer not too bad once you do a couple
