Thanks for watching! See you at the track
Randy worked for DEI and builds these motors out of his shop which is behind his house. When we raced back in the late 2000’s to 2012 we had one. I went to Randy’s shop in China grove to pick it up. Pretty cool place. But first night we ran the 430 we had we broke the track record at Dixie speedway here in Georgia. Overton won a few races with a Randy Clarey engine in weavers car. It’s a runner. You won’t be down on motor anymore, my prediction is the Clarey will end up being your favorite out of all the ones you have.
Jack starette had a couple Mike head drove a black 22 masters built with one in it met Randy at charlotte cool dude🤙🏼
@@russellpatterson7778 We had the 460 SB2 of jacks built by Clements and yes Russell that motor they have is still down.
Howdy guys listen hey take your carburetor back off and put a level on your plate and Jack the car back up to where it is level and then check your floats should be set right in the middle of the glass like you would just be running a regular carburetor don't be setting them higher or low just set them in the middle... Good luck guys
The super bowl setup carb takes some time to switch fuel lines over and replacing the check valve and fittings in the fuel cell
Hi is Jordan working for you guys full time he is a hard worker
Engine looks great and DEI valve covers are going to bring HTF some good extra vibe I'm saying top 10 in a couple of races for sure
Take some white or silver touch up paint and paint in the lettering on the valve covers. If you get outside the lines, just take a razor blade and scrape excess paint off. Makes it look professional. Used to do it on mid plates. Works like a charm!
You can call the new car and engine combo "Betty and the Beast"👍
The DEI valve covers are so sick! They add at least 50 horsepower, do it for Dale, let’s ride boys 🏎
Randy also worked for Alan Kulwicki as a builder. He’s as good as any of the rest. I’d pick his or a Vic Hill engine any day! Hook the car up and the engine will do it’s part.
I always learn something new watching you. Cantered washers on carb to account for track lean. Wow...who knew. Thanks for sharing.
It was explained to me (back in the '60s!) that the wedge is to make up for the centrifugal force around the turn that pushes the fuel to the right side of the float bowl. This lets gravity partly make up for it. I suspect that a clear float bowl would reveal fuel sloshing all over the place on a dirt track.
The engine looks great. The HP you have been needed for a while. More success on the way. Proud of you guys. Keep on being grounded and humble. You guys are doing things the right way. I see a win coming soon. Maybe this weekend at Southern Raceway. Good Luck and God Speed.
it's still down 40hp bud watch the next video
I agree with another person's comment; I cringed to see Joseph hand holding a piece of metal while drilling a hole. SAFETY Joseph ⚠️‼️
Agreed and no shame in wearing safety glasses most bad sh?t happens fast!
Should prolly check the axles in the rear end that came out of the 1 car since he baja'ed it through the infield
Boy Jesse will definitely be. Staying up front now. With a little weight reduction...
Giveum the good stuff...
Moving up in the world.
what a beautiful thing.
Joseph Now, you walk in and claim the title..
Fingers crossed, that engine is all cracked up to be what it is..
You Got this..
Believe in You...
You need some Heavy Duty engine mounts for the front for Bristol!
I hope you guys finally have enough motor to run with those big boys. Go get it HTF!!!
Get a small level ( digital) and check the drive pulley, then the pump pulley, then the angle of the belt. The angle should all be the same and in line. Bless yall. Can't wait to see yall in Bristol and eldora
The DEI on the valve covers should be good for an extra 50 hp. Cubes are a good thing at Bristol.
If it's been sitting for 2 years the valve springs are weak from sitting in the same spot ..... Have had it happen a few times just from sitting over the winter 🤷♂️
Whoever had it should have backed them off if it was gonna sit for that long
Since it was at the builders I'd expect he knows what's best. Not saying you are wrong. I think they said in this video only has 21 laps? But I get what you are saying. Probably good idea to back off the valve adjustment/remove rockers on ones open when engine is setting for a long time. Good tip.
@@gailtaylor1636 I have never seen HTF under a VALVE COVER ever I dont think they know what to do in that area hell THEY DONT EVEN HAVE A MIG WELDER in that shop I did see they own tin SNIPS
@@CORNDODGER You still mad. Not good for your blood pressure.
@@bren-xmotorsports55 It was stored at the builders. I'd imagine he knows what's best. Been building them since 1998.
Nice new motor.... Go fast. Turn left. repeat, repeat... and WIN !!!.
If that engine has been sitting for a few years like you said. I hope you do not have valve spring problems. You know that some of those springs have been on the lift of cam. Putting more pressure on then.which could make then weaker that those not on the lift. Hope you do not have a problem.
Hello HTF glad to see you guys getting more equipment can’t wait to hear this new motor no substitute for cubic inches good luck and best wishes
Engine looks good. Hoping this is what makes y’all run up from. Be praying for big things coming for y’all.
God bless
Joseph is so lucky that step drill didn't grab @ 5:28 and super slice his hand making that shim. gotta use your head dude. or no racing for a couple weeks.
If you cut tendons may never be the same.
He be alright. We live we learn.
@@gailtaylor1636 I know a lady use to be a hair dresser. She was cutting apples or oranges don’t remember. An she cut her hand pretty bad. She couldn’t use her middle finger to the pinky. She don’t cut hair no more
@@gailtaylor1636 she’s not the same person no more. She cut hair for 20+yrs
@@MHal312 yea it’s all that but if it happens to you. You won’t say live you learn
Way to go on getting some real motivatal power. Y'all have some serious cubic inches now and can run with the best. Stay safe.
I really think Joseph will like that torque. Gets you off the corner like Bob's your uncle. Better than a screamer. Just my 10 cents worth . Have a great day everyone
To bad Bristol is not a torque race track and there down 40 to 50 hp with the new SB2....watch the next video
Better put in new valve springs if the moter has been setting that long. Cheep insurance great moter will get the job done!!!!
Take it to the front fellas! *edit* "Now we'll be going through drills instead of starters" LOL! 10/10
Heck yeah big engine big cob = big results dang good driver and crew let's get Bristol baby
We ran a spacer like that on our car, never changed for different tracks. We ran Attica, Oakshade, Eldora, Millstream and e few others.
I have a set of sb2.2 heads and a rodec block my boat ever arrives ill be able to race again someday
This has been what I’ve been waiting for
Y’all have needed more HP a LONG time
You have had the suspension game dialed in long time
Think engine has LESS HP than the other SB2 because this one won't be turned as many RPM. Big cubes means big torque. Less responsive in a way but possibly easier to spin the tires. I hope they got some recommendations from Clary about torque arm/5th coil settings.
Looks good, and sounds like y'all should have boost in hp with it. Might be a great candidate for Eldora as well. Really like the fact that y'all are taking 2 complete cars to Bristol. Can't wait to hear the new beast!
Liking the new engine, those Randy engines are know to produce big horsepower. Good luck HTF!
That particular motor is pretty old and it only made high 800's were as Randy Clary's new stuff is 930hp.
And Clements stuff is 950+.
@@JJ-1-1 Gotta walk before you run! A Clement, Roush or ProPower would have been great but still a big step up from the Draime....
I am so happy for HTF Nation now they are going to win alot of race this year hammer down JJ and good luck
I love that you run SB2!!
He puts those valve cover's on all the motors he builds!
sitting there by the dozen
I noticed another comment and when they mentioned valve springs that is true valve springs get weak sitting in the same place hopefully it's all good for you guys thanks for sharing this one with us
I ran an angle spacer like that worked well and may save some burnt pistons due to leaning out.
Good job and work finding this engine and getting it the car. Lets go HTF!!!
hell,I'm jealous y'all can get Whataburger still..last one left in Fla. up there...sure miss them in Tampa Bay!
I wish yall the best of luck this weekend and at Bristol!
New motor looks good in the car and cant wait to hear it come to life!! Go Hunt the Front!!!
I would trust the valve springs if the motor was turned over a quarter turn every month or so . Otherwise if not , cross your fingers 🇺🇸🏁☝️
ol JoJo done got him a R07 fresh from DEI 🤣
R07?
@@jason5044 Nascar engine that was introduced in 2007, they call them R07's
@@carbonconnection2480 it's an sb2
@@jason5044. I'm very aware, it was a joke...
Last place I would take a motor that's set for 2 years would be bristol but y'all pocket deeper than mine good luck
It's my birthday Friday boys,I'm coming to get a picture!
Can't wait to see the Dale engine fire up
Awesome engine that’s going to help out for sure on the ponies and Joseph I know can’t wait to get it out on the track good luck crew this weekend at southern..😎
Looking great
With the super bowl carb you don't need an angled spacer It dumps even fuel That's the design of it
Call Willy and talk to him He's a super good guy and will help you with anything And he's the man who designed it
Not true. Others use the angled spacer.
We have one and dont run an angled spacer We took the car to Willys shop and had it Dyno'd and tuned last year 2 days before the Bristol race and he told me it wasn't needed
Either way I would call Willy and talk to him about it
See you guys at Bristol!!!
It’s Bristol Baby!!!
Looking good, guys!!! Can't wait till Bristol. Gonna be a wild one!!
Congratulations on the new engine. I hope it delivers the HP needed for Bristol. Good Luck this weekend, have fun and stay safe.
Wouldn't have a link to that filter housing/primer, would ya?
Even I can get behind an engine with a DEI logo on it. I saw Dale run a Ford 6 cylinder (yes I did) at Metrolina Speedway in the early 70's. Even spent time with Dale and Richard C. several years later. Great guy. Good luck...you finally have the HP to compete.
I've got a Good Feeling about Bristol 🤙🇺🇸🙏
Those headers are built right down the road from my house wish y’all the best for Bristol this year 🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁
Motor looks good.
Put the super bowl on that sucker and a normal flat spacer the Super Bowl is self leveling (equalizer) so it will take the guessing out of it
Those valve covers are supposedly pretty Rare ive only ever seen one pair online and they were selling for almost 700 dollars... they were made originally for the sb2 engines that dei was running from what I've read
Boy was Jordan spot on... 😂 well he was
BIG HP required y’all are doing great things. 🏁
Not big enough for Bristol
I liked the name "white lightning" and throw some white lightning multi fire spark plug wires on it..... get that boy Jesse a "tire demon" would save you tons of tire prep time at home and at the track..... engine looks beastly.... can't wait to hear it roar
I saw a Milwaukee fuel! Great tools!! Go HTF!!
We will rock paper scissors which carb to use! LMAO! I wish I could be at Bristol, but the wife just had surgery! Maybe next year!
Steven from Gadsden Alabama i go to Talladega a lot y’all where there one night I was there been about a 1 year ago been watching y’all’s videos ever since can’t wait tell the new videos come every week
That engine should be a game changer . The extra HP is a good upgrade. Might ought to carry a few extra rear Quarter panels to Bristol , (HP + Joseph = Quarter Panels ) 😀 just picking at Him .
Watch the video up next there motor is HIGH 800hp the big dogs are 940hp so nah there game is still away's off
Gonna be able to give those Lucas and outlaw guys a run for there money now
He needs more 40hp to run with those guys don't let them bullshit you.
Super glad to see this car going. I have this feeling it's your lucky car. Good luck and go get 'em boys.
I heard that Ol' Cleetus is coming to Bristol
This motor and the sb2 as y'all's one two combo at big tracks like Bristol and Eldora and other places will be great. Unfortunately the Draim motor was just down on power
Great motor for the smaller tracks... those big HP jobs need restrictors on the 1/3 miles.
@@JalopyTechnology yes very true just meant without the restrictor those two motors will be best
The Draime is a good motor for very dry slick tracks where big HP just spins the rear tires.
The only problem is that the SB2 motor is still 40 to 50 hp off anyway you cut it that will show up at Bristol (watch next video)
Would not be surprised if that beast needs a little more timing as well.
“Boat” on them headers Jonathan lol sound more bama than panhandle
Good luck and that motor looks like a monster....hope everything works out for you guys...thanks for having something for me ro watch on lunch
And seats to.
cant wait for Bristol
Maybe I missed it somewhere, but where did Jordan come from? He really seems to know his stuff.
Jordan is a graduate of a racing school. I think he is a full time employee. I think I heard that somewhere.
We had a set of the Earnhardt valve covers on our racecar and they were actual ones off of one of his Nascar motors that was changed out cause when they build another they put all new back so they sale the old ones
Y’all should’ve timed getting the motor in
Is that there one of them there dei motors. I'm still a draime guy but was a huge dale can . Now I'm a htf fan this one is going to take forever to come together so that we can get to see it on a track near you. You go Joseph keep it out of the fence, getting kinda deep there Jesse. Good luck guys, God be with you all.
Builder was a DEI employee back in the day.
I just love 465 cubic inches. Dale will take you to the checker
Why would you love 465ci? What would you say if that motor is 40 to 50hp down to the big dogs (check the next video)
Never heard of Randy working at DEI I do know the engine guy at DEI was Richie Gilmore!
Randy defiantly did and so did Rodger Leagon retired from RCR
Make sure you jack up the car to level it before setting carb floats
Okay! Not trying to be a downer… But guys you are just buying outdated goods with these engines. With the supply chain what it is these engines wouldn’t be sitting for years. Maybe you tried different channels to acquire a engine. But at some point you are going to have either lease or buy a wide bore Clements,Vick Hill, etc. if you are going to compete at the $50,000 slm shows. Or any Woo, Lucas show in general. Driver has been out performing engines to this point.but the laws of average will eventually get you. Good Luck always pulling for you guys!!!!
You are 100% right. The Big Dogs at Bristol (they are the ones that lift their leg higher and don’t pee like a puppy) won’t be running used engines. HTF doesn’t have an engine program. Do they really need that deluxe Motor Home?
Too bad HTF has never been able to compete huh?
@@russgloudeman511 why don’t you put your money where your keyboard is, help them get a motor program since it’s so easy....
@@vernsimmons945 I believe that was sarcasm. That's the way I took it.
My guess is they have 6 engines that all totaled up cost less than ONE new bide-bore engine.
Cubic Inches makes horsepower!!!
No they don't even with the size of that motor it's still down 40 to 60hp down The top motor guys build a 438ci wide bore motor with more 50hp and about 60 pounds of torque that motor is old plus it set in a shop floor for 3 years that should tell you something.
I'd like to know the difference between the old engine and new engine, e.g.. torque, horsepower and how you now fair with the top competitors, am sure for joesph it will be a new challenge learning to drive the new motor as you will be driving different lines ,all makes for interesting viewing , either way great job and 🤞fingers crossed the engine does what you want it to do. Best of luck hunt the front 🏁🏁🏁
Should be big torque! Won't need as much gear as other SB2.
Lokey makes a good point on valve springs, would hate to float a valve.
Ohh and DALE EARNHARDT was the greatest driver to ever grip it and rip it ita a fact!
We ran one of them spacers for a while it made no difference in the Carolinas imo if everything we did gave us the 5hp “they say” then we would be making 750 hp with a 604 🤣
Needs to be turned sideways so when your all jacked sideways it will be level in the turns.
I bought one of y'all's king of the sandbox shirts and I love it thanks HTF...much love guys...love the content....keep it going...
Congratulations. Thanks for the Dale story.
God bless ya guys. All Joseph has been needing is a few more ponies to run up front he has the talent equal to anyone on the track and more than most. JESUS LIVES
Final a bigger motor but I don't know if Bristol would be were I wanted to test it out....even tho it's been freshened up that was 2 years ago and it's been sitting up mmmmm good luck hope it goes great love to see yall in the front the pack with them boys
I worked in NASCAR during the sb2 era 1) that oil primer is great(and mandatory) we used to take the belt off the (front mounted) oil pump to prime and 2 you might consider adding a tank(oil) heater to pre-warm your (gallons) of oil both are needed for longevity and performance
Excellent info!👍
Do it for dale!!!
Y'all will have to eventually get some HTF stickers or wraps for the stack trailer! Just so I know where to find y'all at bristol lol ! Eventually you will I'm sure! Go big boys! Have a big time & make Dirt Daddy proud as always!
Not going to wrap the hauler but you can look for the cover on the back of the trailer
For the 100th time it's illegal to put wraps on hauler or trailer
Sorry for getting your panties in a bunch over a question! I see race car trailers all over the place with numbers and decals!
@@jamieday6602how many dirt late model teams do you see with that?
I don't exactly know! But I live in Cookeville TN! I see many trucks and haulers go thru and at local dirt tracks, drag tracks! I don't think I would be lying to say I see trailers with numbers and sponsors on the side! From Nascar cup, Xfinity to truck series to local races! I don't understand why I am getting hammered for this! I guess maybe the law says only dirt late models can't do that! Lawn mowing services can! So maybe y'all could explain why dirt teams can't! Rather than question my intelligence! I've been around racing since I was probably 7 going to many asphalt tracks in the northeast from thunder road to beech ridge and the oxford 250 in Maine to modified races in NY , Connecticut, Massachusetts into Canada! So make me look dumb! I'm 51 years old ,I've seen it at all of those tracks! Please explain why it is illegal! Also let me know how many tracks and states you have been to for local racing asphalt or dirt!
