    I've had a 77 Landcruiser with a 350 for decades! You'll have lots of power! I once had a Chevy Short box with a 283/Power-Glide. Wish I still did... Congratulations! Isn't it NICE when something runs after all that work and planning and wondering...

      It’s definitely a great feeling when it runs again

      Yeah, it has been apart for so long and had been fighting me so much lately I was concerned about how it would run

    I have a M38A1 with a 283. Nice combo. Good luck.

      Thanks! I am waiting on the correct flywheel right now, then it’ll start going together

      Man I hope so. Allegedly it will bolt up to the trans, use the same clutch, just need swap mounts, a pilot bushing and flywheel

      It overpowered my mic, which sucks because it does sound good. And the no smoking is a bonus, I figured even with the taper at the top it wasn’t enough to hurt it

      I should have ditched my clip on mic for it, pretty much blew out the input on it.

      It sound really good in person, with open manifolds it overpowered my microphone. 🤷‍♂️

    Very nice man! So being budget, at this point right now, how much are you into it? I'm sure that's gonna make all the power that jeep will ever need.

    • @Foxcanfixit
      @Foxcanfixit  9 місяців тому +3

      Engine $150. Parts (gasket set, water pump, plugs, rockers, lifters, 1 piston, bearings) $250ish = $400 or there abouts

    Two things. 1) Thanks for making fake snow for us since we all know you don’t really get snow there. 2) Your water pump pulley was switching directions during the test run. How???

      Out of phase with recording frame rate. As the 2 rates overtake each other the rotation seems to change
