Unfortunately, things like this happen to a lot of people including myself. I have just kept silent and moved forward. Maybe i should expose the bad service i have received in the past so it can help others. What are your thoughts?
I think you should. I know how much the two of you love your cars and the time and money you put into them. It might help someone else avoid the same heart brake. I going through some BS with a shop that currently has my car.
*It's a TOUGH position man, because people make mistakes. For me, I would put the content out their for the soul purpose of things to look for or be aware of and not put who did the work on blast IF they were sincere in their mistake & apology. But we all know some A$$HOLE mechanics/engineers who NEED to be EXPOSED!* #SilenceIsCompiance
Definitely tough. You don't want to blast people for honest mistakes. Especially if they are willing to make it right. You know this game is crazy and finding a team you can trust is tough. Even people on my team have made mistakes but they always make it right. If they aren't willing to do that, then people should know to avoid that person
@kobate08 I agree mistakes happen but it's the shops responsibility to double check and triple check. If I was selling a product or service I would double check because I know I'm human and I make mistakes. If a shop took responsibility for their mistake and made it right I would have any hard feelings. If I paid for a service and then had to pay someone else to correct it that's bad business.
@Makc843 agreed. This business is risky. That's why I'm big on consistency when dealing with shops. I like to deal with people who treat my car like it's theirs. I also like shops who are fans of their own work
Mannnn that could have caused that cylinder to fill with water and eventually bend the rod, from being hydro locked.
Once the motor didn't lock up,it should be fine..I would of done a compression and leak down test, but i guess at those power levels ,you don't want any issues ..
Damn Bro! A terrible mishap.
But I know it will be back stronger than ever!
Keep pushing my brother💪
Hope the welder kicks in some 💰to help with the rebuild.
I was just thinking I haven't seen a Mod2Fame video in a while. I was thinking you took a break. Then this video popped up in my feed so I was like let me check the channel to see what I missed. You did take a little break. Good to see you back.
I can't wait to see the motor go back in and runnin' again!
Sorry to hear that! Hope it’s gets stronger and faster!
Yo yo wit yo Stephen ! Good to see you back on the tube mayn keep up the great footage
Well pulling the motor is a good move because at least you can determine the status of the motor, not just from the water invasion but from all the pulls and stress you've been putting the motor under. It gives you a peace of mind knowing you got a healthy motor regardless of the stress it's under. But YT algorithm likes the drama so it all works out- I would title the video to like: smoke from the turbos to possible hydro-locking???
Looks like your back into the thick of things again. ^_^
I think your good bro. It's definitely a step back and a little ptsd in the future. It was time to have the motor looked over like you said. Hopefully some cleaning and gasket changed. Maybe replace a piston or 2 and plugs. Fingers crossed and prayers up bruh. Doesn't sound like it seized up so that a huge positive
Smh... I hope everything works out well for you on the repairs Bro!
Bro been rocking with you for a few years. Good luck with the new direction of the channel
Drain the oil and pump new oil through the engine, it should be fine.
Damn it’s always something I hope when the motor comes back it’s all good Stef
The algorithm has been hella off!!! I ain’t seen a video from you in months!!!!
I feel you bro I hope it all works out for you
Damn bro
Good luck with everything
That manifold been giving you hell since the turbo swapp, Just go to a company that specializes in making manifolds with a warranty instead of these mom and pop shops.
Sooo the welder repairing the intake caused it to leak thru the 7thport of the intake? Whet part of the intake was leaking before hand?
Smart move with pulling the motor out. Hopefully the motor can be freshened up 🤞🏾
I miss ur blue hellcat, but cheapo kitty is nice. you should deff badge it back lol.
Hope all is good with the engine bro! Sorry to see you go through so much. 💯
He got money bro. He's fine
Those one piece rotors heat up quick trust me I know also you can get replacements rings for 800 bucks plus new hardware kit for 40 bucks.
I'd love to see more videos on the x7, have you thought about doing anything to it?
Dayum Bro. Sorry to hear that
I hate that for you but it’s a setback for your comeback keep your head up 👍🏾
power stop makes a 2 piece replacement if you want to keep the 2 piece rotor and it’s way cheaper than the factory brembo
I feel 4 U Bro do me a favor look around for a new design manifold something stronger I new that manifold was going to be a problem when went weld it
Damn Steph sorry to hear
Bro. you killin me right now. I would assume the shop will eat some of the cost of this mishap. Hopefully, it will just be a refresh and nothing too serious. Hate that happened to you, but I will bet my last dollar that you'll be ready by the 2024 racemotive opener.
Better safe than sorry 💯
😮 oohhh naaaahhhh. She’ll be back‼️
That sucks to pull the engine out,but probably the right decision....Hey steph on the turbos, I thought they pull air from the exhaust?
There’s two turbines on turbos and they’re connected by a single shared rod. One side has exhaust that spins the hot side, and in response the other turbine will draw in air, compress, and force it into into the engine.
@@runespaze thanks for the explanation
Sorry to hear this bro but What you going to do about a manifold tho
Man bro! I know you was upset Stephen! I was upset as well. Can't wait to see you back on the road again with cheapo kitty!
Hold your head, Stef. I know it ain't easy, but you got this son.
Damn 2 steps forward then 5 back smh hope everything goes smooth from here really wanted to see the hellcat running at full power
Oooooh man. So this is the danger of messing with/chopping up water-to-air end tanks and cores. I never really hear of the stock ones failing catastrophically, but I've always wondered.
You got lucky, Steph. This could have turned into a hydrolock situation real, real quick.
I don't think it can be trusted after so many repairs imho, but I know they're expensive. It really should have been tested pressure after the beforehand tho, at the bare minimum.
Some of the GM factory ones have failed and bent rods, but you are correct it is not common. I personally have not seen the factory Hellcat stuff fail though but idk.
Stay humble brother and its not a bad idea to have the engine refreshed either you could have had another problem going on wit it
The car game is not for the cheap!! This is heart breaking
Come back stronger 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
Damn Bro. It's always something.
Fingers crossed 🤞
Did the weld break? Because the welder couldn’t pressure test for that.
This hurts man when a shop make mistake like that it really sucks
This is so heart breaking man I hope it’s nothing serious wrong with it 🙏🏾😥
Wait what?? My condolences, Steph.
I assume your guys did a compression test and found low compression from a bent rod or broken piston or pushed head gasket caused from the hydrolock situation? Otherwise the engine may be fine and only smoking/ steaming from the coolant leaking into the intake. Compression good = engine good, compression low = ok there was some damage done…
Anyways, keep grinding bro.
bro look like he bout to cry.
Dont worry. ive been there. Just got my ss back after a YEAR of bullshit and im -9k + -2.5k + -3.5k.
I feel your pain. it'll get better.. slowly.
Back to busting my ass i go.
Dang 😢
Damn Stef
Yessir 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
Ahh damn bro! 😖
That hellcat so fire bro. Love your content
I never leave the shop when my cars there
Sheesh!
I feel bad seeing this story but unfortunately it happens and I very much believe that a mechanic, like a doctor, cannot make mistakes, a baker can, a plumber, a carpenter can make mistakes, I repeat, a doctor, surgeon or mechanic cannot.
2 u have 2 hellcats?
You had to weld the manifold multiple times? Sorry bruh, but you were asking for trouble.
Maybe once, but after that first time you should have repaced it. That said, having a manifold leak is completely different than having water leaking into the cylinders. 😬 I'd be heated!
👍🏾🤜🏾damn.
*I HATE to have to LIKE this video.* #GetWellSoon
Sheesh I see why you stepped away for a min
He need to fix this for him
Hate that for you. Are you talking about sending it to Steve White Motors in NC? I only ask because there is a Steve White Motors in my city.
So would my Camry.... 😅😂(Because your car is being worked on)
Definitely would never use them again 😮when water is in engine and running it prematurely damages the bearings...it would only be a matter of time.
Why not run a dry manifold and use a front Mount air to air intercooler? There are a few ways to go with this.
Takes space. Manifold is already built, and air to water is the way bro
@@runespaze I guess that's your opinion. Look at the problems it caused. So as an option this is viable. And to say this is the way to go is just your opinion. You are entitled to it but does not carry any extra weight because you wrote it.
I'm a BMW and Ford guy., but this Challenger is beautiful. I could get one tomrrrow, but I would get pulled over at least once a week bro. Black dude driving Mopar = Sus to cops PS: That shop should have an insurance policy for shit like this. Make them make it right...
is it just me or do those lift points look sus? Is that how dodges are lifted typically? Anyway gl man that sucks hopefully someone takes responsibility for the mistake and it doesn't come out of your pocket.
Yea, hopefully the water didn’t cause the piston rings to score the cylinder bore if there wasn’t a lack lubrication, best of luck Stephen come back harder…
OMG
He said eff this. Y’all going to know who did it
Shit , fix intake put new oil in it. No difference in blowing a head gasket on the waterside of intake. Cheveys famous for it.
This why some people are going EV
So sorry…. 😎
Hold onto that car and keep it garaged. The theft on these hellcats is getting out of hand
Sue himmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Engines 🤦♂️
He should have to pay for this
Rims ok nothing spectacular
You need new mirrors fam whats with them shrek ears fam
He screwed up by recommending that guy to you. The fabricator should have tested his work when done even though it didn’t come in like that. He thickened the material so he was supposed to check. Dude is not thorough. Can’t mess with mechanics like that. I bet he is gonna fight with you on this Steph. Dude at least need to pay half for doing a half ass job.
Enough with this bullshit... Bruh just get a new car
Is it a gellcat anymore after taking out the supercharger
How can you say the fabricator? This shop should of tested it before putting it on. Also could of been leaking when you brought it in. It was flat bedded in with a cracked mani. You don’t know if the brick was damaged when removed from the car or not? Nobody knows.
car was running perfectly fine, it was on the flatbed because of a broken axle. If it was leaking it would have been smoking and coughing before removing the manifold. Car was running even pushing it into the shop to use the power steering
@@Mod2Fame you have no idea if it was damaged when removing it, installing it etc.
@@Mod2Fame axle broken, mani split several times. Sounds like a great car to have.
