Sorry to hear of you loss Pete! A good pet is always like family and the are tough to lose! Side note. I really enjoy your videos, very informative. I have learned so much. Thank you!

[@PetesGarage]

RIP Shelby, Pete, sorry for your loss deepest condolences to you and your family. We will miss Shelby. Thanks so much for sharing.

[@PetesGarage]

Thank you my friend. She had a lot of fans so I had to let everyone know.

[@chrisrowe657]

Thanks for sharing pete I just lost my best mate a few days ago he was 13 and he also got very sick very quick it seems surreal when they seemed fine the week before. Taking them to the vet to say goodbye is absolutely the hardest thing to do but you know they will be forever loved.

[@PetesGarage]

It was incredibly difficult Chris. I feel for you, sorry you lost your best mate too!

[@case1516]

Love you videos. Sorry for your loss. My dog is my there for practically every nut and bolt I turn on my cars.

[@PetesGarage]

Thank you....it is tough to work without her

[@ipdjbt]

My sincerest condolences to you, Pete. Sometimes mans best friend is a bigger part of the family than you realize.

[@PetesGarage]

I never thought I'd miss her so much, you're right

[@stephengouze3896]

Pete I'm sorry about your loss bro. It's never easy to make such a decision and I feel your pain. My wife and I have had to make that call a few times ourselves. All of them are there in heaven greeting your sweet Shelby. Take care my man

[@PetesGarage]

The hardest thing I've ever had to do. Thank you very much Stephen

[@Travelingman-1980]

You have my condolences Pete, the vids won't have the same vibe with no Shelby snoring in the background. Thanks for ths video.

[@PetesGarage]

Thank you...she was the heart and soul of the shop.

[@speeder36]

Pete, there are a lot of excellent companions in Western New York rescues that would love to be your wingman!!! Nice work on the car too! I lost a Husky that was my girl for 17 years!! I cried like a baby!

[@PetesGarage]

Thank you Tim. Perhaps after some time I will get another dog, but it hurts too much right now. I cried too!

[@PatriotPaulUSA]

So, sorry for your loss Pete, Mine is my buddy and rides with me everywhere, but hates loud noises so she cant go out to the garage when working. Half border collie /half husky. I had to fabricate my headers in the car at this point but the motor mounts and everything else was on the chassis. They made headers for every single ford engine I think except mine. 351c 4v. So I made my own. Nice job as always Pete.

[@PetesGarage]

Thank you Paul. I am having to make many parts for this one too. I'm working on the exhaust hangers, then wiring so I can fire it up.

[@J-W.-]

Sorry for your loss Pete, I hope your doing better. Love your videos!

[@PetesGarage]

[@Buzbikebklyn1]

I know EXACTLY how you feel loosing Shelby. I'd use the dogs collar and put it around the the steering wheel post. The 427 is beautiful.

[@PetesGarage]

That's a great idea, thank you my friend.

[@lazerblades9501]

Hey Pete, thanks for all you do! I'm just starting my first engine build and you've taught me a lot. So Sorry to hear about Shelby. I've been there twice in the last two years and it is so heart breaking. Consider adopting another furry friend soon....they need you...and you need them! Tons of love!

[@PetesGarage]

Thank you very much. I shall consider that, but it's too soon for me. Good luck with your build!

[@MVanDii]

Damn. It's never easy to hear of a good people greeter time coming to an end. Hang in there.

[@PetesGarage]

I'm trying...thank you my friend

[@MVanDii]

I've lost a good few of them. I had them from the time I rescued them to the time they expired. I've never truly gotten over any of them. if you need to talk, I'm here.

[@tracycolorado]

[@PetesGarage]

Thank you very much. I know I will see her again

[@supreme2544]

Pete on sorry for your lose. You should put a paint of her on one of the cars. That would be cool and great video I'm trying to figure out how to put a ls block into a 89 Dakota sport and was told I need to build my own motor mounts so this helped me a lot. Thanks Pete

[@PetesGarage]

Thank you. I was thinking about getting a picture of her on the car somehow

[@korbun3235]

Petes Garage you're welcome

[@simaomartins3123]

Sorry to hear Pete :( Had to do the same to my Dog years ago and it was terrible. It was a 14 year old "relationship" ...........

[@PetesGarage]

Thank you, it is very difficult

[@brandonellis9180]

That’s tough bud. Sorry to hear bout the pup. I know mine are still riding with me and yours is still rolling side by side. Even if you got a new buddy Have good days bro. Looking at a kit right now I found in a friends back yard but it’s throwing me off because it’s in a blue fiberglass mold and I’ve never seen that before. Ok. Take care bud

[@PetesGarage]

Thanks Brandon

[@larrysullivan6536]

Brilliant well done where do you get those urethane engine mounts buddy ?? I need some for my little hot rod I’m doing cheers Larrysullivan in London

[@PetesGarage]

Those are stock Mustang motor mounts from Summit Racing

[@doktorjonsson3860]

Aaaaw poor doggo :(

[@michael6522]

Sorry to hear that you lost your best friend I know what its like we had a pug Rockie and he got sick and had to be put to sleep it was the hardest thing I had to do I could not take him to the vet and leave with out him but we have a great vet and they came to the house my wife and I got to hold him and say our good byes we love pugs and have two other ones. one is getting older and the other is about two don't know what your plans are give it some time and get another pug you know life is so much better with a dog keep up the great videos

[@PetesGarage]

Thanks Mike. I just really don't know if I want to go through that again.

[@rosaloera8612]

It has the plans to manufacture the chassis, I want to start manufacturing mine

[@PetesGarage]

That sounds fun

[@1armedguy4]

I know it's ones preference but I find over forty years in the welding business pulling towards oneself with either a cutting torch or plasma torch is much easier !!

[@hepburn118]

That sucks about your pup mate, hope you feel better soon. I wanted to ask a question too. Was the motor mount part you bought bolted to the mount you manufactured? Or did you weld it to the part you fabricated? I couldn't see is all.

[@PetesGarage]

Thanks Shaun, I still miss her. Those were stock urethane motor mounts for a 5.0 Mustang.

[@teamarrow6717]

Hey Pete brother I know how you feel I've got a dog a yellow lab chance. He is my service dog and my right paw man.

[@PetesGarage]

Thanks so much my friend.

[@darthdurf9611]

Sorry for your best friends loss.....they aremembers of our families

[@PetesGarage]

She was awesome

[@427HISS]

Hey Pete, after two 428FE engines I'm changing my my engine to a Ford 460. I just watched your motor mount video and like you ingenuity in building the table. To start off the install, how did you determine the height of the engine in relevance to the hood clearance ? How did you measure the room needed from the front of the engine to your radiator etc ? How do you figure the downward degree from the block to the tranny and to the center of the yoke ? I have thought of placing a laser on the crank, pointing it down the middle of the tranny then down to the yolk. I will appreciate your thoughts. Thanks.

[@PetesGarage]

That's a tough answer. I did measure the body at several points to get the hood clearance. I used the mounts that came with the kit to make sure it was close. I like the laser idea.

[@427HISS]

@@PetesGarage Thanks Pete.

[@kevinhornbuckle]

Condolences on the loss of your furry friend. Who build that chassis? I thought that you need at least two degrees of offset between the drive line and the pinion centerline so that the U joints will turn and lubricate.

[@UCanDoIt2Mike]

I thought this to be true as well.

[@nicktimar3037]

Kevin Hornbuckle he has more than 2 degrees it's not horizontal

[@PetesGarage]

The axle is up as far as possible. At ride height it will be lower

[@kevinhornbuckle]

Thank you.

[@arthurfricchione8119]

Pete I just started to watch and sorry to hear about Shelby. I know how hard it is to lose your best friend. So much so I couldn’t watch the video. Will try later. Truly sorry.❤️🙏

[@powersledmodz6117]

ESorry for ur loss. Shelby is in a better place now

[@PetesGarage]

That is the only thought keeping me going

[@yoyobenjo1]

try dragging the plasma not pushing .

[@PetesGarage]

Excellent idea

[@paulspangler2088]

Is it me or is that motor too far back?

[@PetesGarage]

I designed it so it is 1/2" back. It fits perfect in the body.

[@paulspangler2088]

Yea I kept watching the videos and saw that. Im doing a 408 stroker ranger trying to find some knowledge material,and came across this. Good video by the way.
