[@shawnrobinson726]

Damn sounds like a monster

[@shotdog4237]

Taylor, great job man! my hat's off to ya, watching your El Camino build made me feel about 40yrs younger! when i was your age my friends and i were always working on cars, it's getting really hard to find young men that want to tear into their car's and build their motor up or put some gears in the rear end or swap an auto for a four speed, we always had something going, to putting a straight front axle under a 62 impala to putting a 396 in a 68 firebird, i have 2 72-74 corvettes that I've been working on for years now and i can't find any young guys at all, that seem the least bit interested in what I'm doing, it's like the hot rod days are coming to and end. i hope you and your friends will keep these old hot rods alive, they were a lot of fun! my hats off to ya, great vids.

[@TaylorSmithAutomotiveChannel]

shotdog thank you!

[@nathiscocks1323]

I love these types of things, I’m 23 and like in the UK but very hard and very very expensive to do any of this here. Hoping to come over to the US this year and find something, do a bit of work and ship it back to England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

[@fishingwithandrew5596]

Hey man im 17 and in love with engines and mechanics but things are hard to customize nowadays because of price for parts

[@bigdaddy8896]

Awesome Video. Question, what lift are you using? It fits perfect in your garage. Could really use one of those. Yep gonna purchase asap.

[@2451star]

Dude, you are not running a Fram filter like the other bozos on Utub e. Way to go!!

[@wheelmanvicful]

I'm almost done w my 468 big block in my 1969 chevy nova

[@lukelindahl8114]

Sounds amazing! What cam are you using?

[@mattanderson1831]

Did you have to add a TPS sensor onto your carb for the swap? thanks

[@Sundance7055]

you should have primed the engine with a priming tool that goes distributor hole and they have also done away with the front and rear intake gasket

[@jacobydavis3953]

Subbed😎

[@TaylorSmithAutomotiveChannel]

Thank you!

[@MrRyan6616]

[@justingraves3061]

[@ronniebagle2645]

[@theshark2804]

Im very close to starting my rebuilt 468 in my 74 nova. I need to make a check list so i dont forget anything. What heads are you running.

[@TaylorSmithAutomotiveChannel]

the shark these are are actually procomp 300cc oval port castings that were professionally built and ported. 2.25 intake and 1.88 exhaust valves. Pistons have 27cc domes which bring static compression to 10.5:1. Cam is a lunati street and strip roller 242/252 @.050 lift .598/.612 intake and exhaust lift.

[@theshark2804]
