I will tell ya something. My wagon is a Very Nice Car, very well thought out, fit finish and performance. BUT Kevin and Guys, you are building is an even nicer car! Dang 😁😁😁😁

[@chadstewart8567]

Absolutely, let those guys film their adventures! I love watching shop shennanigans, and with these guys its pretty much guaranteed.

[@brianmchattie157]

If you need a place to stay when at Pitt let me know. I am 30 minutes from the track. Also, if you need a place to work on the car or anything my shop is yours if you need it....

[@greggsvintageworkshop8974]

Nice work Kevin and Eddie! Val & Steve are going to have one beautiful and safe drag and drive ride!

[@stevemorrisracing]

Also I am really liking to watch the build up , very And sure sounds cool Let the boys put up some videos

[@gordonstarship]

Big fans of KSR and Steve Morris. Glad you folks are teaming up for the Val Morris build. Excited to see this Camaro progress.

[@vehdynam]

Great progress on Val's car, looking good. Glad to see you are feeling better. Thanks for the update.

[@RFoster130]

Looking awesome. Quality work. It would be fun to see the boys build the ranger.

[@Phs2506]

Let it not go unnoticed that your videos aren't jam packed with ads... totally get why they are there, but appreciate how you go about it! From Tasmania 🇦🇺

[@Chad-lx2om]

Hope everyone there at the shop has a safe and enjoyable weekend keep up the good work 👍

[@stevenraymer6682]

Thanks Kevin great work buddy. Yeah let them guys do their thing with the ranger.

[@I-apologize-in-advance]

Can't get enough of the details and seeing the amazing craftsmanship. Just subbed to CJ Racecars for the same reason. Nice job on the design and execution of the chute brace Eddy. I vote yes on the Ranger project and hope the entire crew has a great Memorial day weekend!!

[@DAILYDRIVENJUNK1983]

BRING ON THE DANGER RANGER BUILD!!!!

[@gafrers]

KSR + SME = Awesome Great work and progress as always

[@stanleymartin1613]

Cool stuff. Looking forward to seeing some shenanigans from the two shop characters!! Enjoyed watching ✌️ 😎

[@tomharvey2824]

Nice work! Love the details.

[@garywoodward847]

Your attention to detail is incredible

[@VATION3RD]

Steve's wagon is a 6-second drag and drive car, with the weight difference between the Camaro and the wagon the Camaro could be a 5-second drag car 💪🏻💪🏻

[@KSRPerformanceFabrication]

If this car got the engine out of the Wagon.....100%!!

[@JS-.-]

I would love to see this go 5s…not sure it will be able to do so. Kevin, what do you think?

[@davidowen888]

Expiramental Engine 🤔

[@mongreluc1588]

Sml engine. Steve’s own ls based billet engine

[@stephenlea5765]

SML. SME will have one test car for each engine program.

[@ACAquatics]

Great video as always guys. Hope you feel better and keep up that great work...🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸

[@craigforbes7185]

Thanks Kevin.

[@jasonmcelvy9210]

Wish I could make it to PittRace to see you guys. Big car show that same weekend in Beaver Falls

[@Kindaquick1]

Yes to the ranger build

[@zrxdoug]

This is gonna be a nice ride for the Morris bunch! Did Clark's adventure on the flying mile have anything to do with the hefty rear wing support plans? This is gonna be considerably more beefy than some "strutless" pop-rivet to the deck lid thingy... And hell yeah, record Abbot & Costello's Ranger exploits!

[@BDavis-s3i]

Yup Danger Ranger Fun!

[@kilgorefamily76]

Nice upload - It's good to have the minions on camera and yes to filming some of their KSR adventures.

[@launceherron]

Awesome

[@markwarner6007]

Let the boys do what they do…. Ready to watch it

[@billpotmesil]

Yes for the Danger Ranger twins build!

[@johnnysechrist6313]

You're doing some of the same things I did when building my Bantam coupe so my oldest son would fit.

[@planesofpaper]

Great video

[@davidmobley5984]

Awesome 😎

[@Wizards_Sleeve]

I definitely would like to see the very obvious chaos that is the Danger Ranger 😁👍🏻

[@Speedie15]

Definitely a yes on the ranger content. Can't wait. Camaro is looking great

[@tommanse4312]

Awesome work great detail

[@Jk-yb1ve]

Yes

[@johngalbreath2219]

Kevin have you ever noticed the location of the chute handle in Alex Taylor’s 55 it’s down beside the shifter ,why is that not a common thing seeing your hand is naturally in that position?

[@KSRPerformanceFabrication]

I feel like having it in the roof is the more natural location, and the movement of throwing the chute puts the steering wheel or switch panel next in line to work with.

[@ericbeeman8717]

Hell ya let see the danger ranger being built hahah

[@devoid42]

Kevin, always love your videos. One of the things I always do is bother masters of a something about their tradecraft and the how/why behind what they do. You just put out videos that go over all that stuff, and I love it.

[@CaptainRon513]

Have you noticed the location of parachute release on Alex's 55...Makes more sense to me rather having to reach up

[@KSRPerformanceFabrication]

Yeah, I have watched some of her videos. In a couple of them, I have seen her have to feel around for the handle and that's not ideal in my opinion. Also, Val's car will shift itself so she will only need to take her hand off of the wheel to throw the chute and to shut the car down in the shutdown, and both of those will be in the roof.

[@JMRAUTOMOTIVE]

Much love from Guam/ Washington state! 🤙🏾🇬🇺🇺🇸🍻

[@drjeep1971]

Thank you for the video. Yes let’s see the young boys create videoa

[@JamesJac-eb3re]

Love the content glad you're showing the little things that it takes to get a chassis functional and safe it's all in the details nice work get well need your videos

[@prototype3a]

I wonder if you could get button head SEMS screws for that ... fender?

[@BenjySparky]

Kevin and crew, y'all rock! ❤ Peace

[@H3110NU]

I always wonder when people build in adjustable pedals if they actually ever use them. I know on Alex Taylor’s car it was built so her dad could drive as well and it’s never been driven by him .

[@jdjd0711]

Lol for the adjustable pedals you could have went to the local bone yard and pulled a power one out of a g6. They are simple and tough

[@yosmith1]

Danger Ranger build...yes!

[@dannmohr5721]

Let them run with it Kevin…….😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@WilliamDundon]

Nice work as always Kevin. That’s a great place for Steve to put a brand new SML with twin turns

[@a.jsipple7322]

Kevin, Are you Thinking that wing mount will be strong enough to hold the wing on the car, at 280 MPH?

[@Fabrice1970]

Yes, i wanna see the boys building the ranger…

[@chadey28]

Let the boys go!

[@charlieshammer6129]

With ya brother, I work in education and the gremlins get me all too often. Your content has been top notch as always...

[@AdhdJimmy]

I want to hear your thoughts on tools and equipment.. like what are things you can't live without while building these cars, like your most important tools or equipment

[@Multimedia_Magic]

Would love to see the guys Ranger builds!

[@gkelley47]

i always learn something from you = send-cut-send

[@scottz63]

Gettin close to the body coming off of the Camaro!

[@leonlopetkiewicz5162]

I wanna know about that Buick behind you

[@Guesswho69650]

Love to see their video of danger ranger

[@chriswebb3183]

I hear a build off!!!

[@Timbo428CJ]

Kev, don't you mean unobtainium??? Even under the weather you're getting it done. Very nice buddy ! Oh, and Eddie too ...😮😅

[@E.T.GARAGE]

I wonder if they have any problems with the differentials in Vipers, Dana 44 I believe or do they add coolers and other mods.

[@KSRPerformanceFabrication]

We have broken ring gear bolts in the 3.45 ratios that we use. And broken a stud axle, but they have been pretty reliable. They are slightly different than a regular Dana 44, called a Super 44 in the books.

[@E.T.GARAGE]

@@KSRPerformanceFabrication Thanks I have seen them referred to super 44 before but was not sure.

[@brianboys9015]

Im hanging out for some racing

[@Calvin-xp4qp]

You're a wonderful Father

[@jeffa7173]

Let Eddie eat!

[@rockbottomracingmarcandlinda]

2 questions Kevin... How many hours (approximately, because I know different vehicles might require different time spent) and what ball park price tag for doing a chassis to specs like Val and Steve's car? Thanks.

[@paulmaigler289]

Great video Kevin, yes to the Ranger build with the clowns 😂. Do you know if Lee is coming up to Lime Rock this year?

[@KSRPerformanceFabrication]

We are skipping Lime Rock. Lee had a family commitment or we would be there this weekend!

[@samsonitemike3127]

More then one vid a week!?!? Your our hero Kevin!! :)

[@keithfilkins2043]

Was wondering, when you are in the final assembly stage,do you use any type os seal or sealant on the carbon fiber interior panels to keep the interior dry in case of traveling in the rain? Oh yeah,cut your boys loose that will be great entertainment 😂

[@KSRPerformanceFabrication]

Yeah, we will leave a small gap between the tubs and the body, then fill the gap with some black seam sealer.

[@MadsWorld34]

just a question once you get it back from powder coating and you find that one spot you going to have to grind. just how mad are you going to get. because you know there is always that one spot that you forgot to add something

[@cjtprint]

Do you fill your cages with expanding foam (or extra Nitros)???????? Expanding foam can double the strength of a roll cage. C.T. Australia

[@KSRPerformanceFabrication]

No

[@timmummert63]

No Lime Rock this year?

[@KSRPerformanceFabrication]

Sadly, no

[@andyanderson9165]

Are you planning on spicing up your Ranger to be more competitive?

[@dakotaeskelund2296]

Look at Eddie actually working not sitting with his feet up lol

[@balloonknot3028]

Looked like the Olds chassis wasn't under the body. Did you finish it or is it just my old eyes playin tricks? Awesome content 👍

[@justinwatch]

Kevin Smith said Val Morris has a pretty big trunk.. KEVIN!! My, the things these car builders are getting away with today. 😂

[@ctown6971]

18:46 why dont you use cleco fasteners to hold until ready to make permanent?

[@toddparker9269]

Shenanigans , Shenanigans , Shenanigans !!! Let Er Rip !!!!!

[@erickbernard8208]

I think 13 minutes is the earliest kevin said that is it for this video, u can tell this cold is kicking ur butt 7 ways to Sunday, get some rest sir, we will be here.

[@davidowen888]

Yes ! The TikTok Rangers series sounds fun😂 😅🤣

[@davidowen888]

I can picture those two dressed up in full Power Ranger Costumes GoGo TikTok Powa Rangjuhs 🤳🦾👨‍🎤🥷🤣

[@edwardmohr5798]

Florida crud, yeah I'm there.

[@OriginalMomo]

We all know that shot of Eddy working was a set up… 😜😉🤣….

[@yngvefalkenberg-arell4941]

I am guessing it was AI generated

[@randythompson1723]

😎💯💯💯

[@JBNL1972]

With the threaded inserts, is there a risk of putting enough heat into them to deform them so they end up out of round ? Just curious!

[@KSRPerformanceFabrication]

They are locking jet nuts, so they are already a little out of round. I use just enough heat to melt the flange in to my filler rod and so far the nuts have all been ok! I could definitely slip on the pedal and nuke one of those little nuts if I am not careful....haha

[@JBNL1972]

@@KSRPerformanceFabrication thank you for your awesome answer! Learned something new!

[@billdevlin2646]

Knowing Steve’s engines hope you set it up for low 6”s maybe even 5’s with big tires.

[@02f4irider]

Is there a way to put a g-force meter on a parachute mount to find out actually how much force its holding? I feel like that would be a good thing to try.

[@roosdad1]

How do you afford employees, with such a high education?

[@jimkravarik1971]

How many lifts do you have in the shop? & what brand name is the tig machine?

[@KSRPerformanceFabrication]

We use HTP welders and we have 4 Bendpack lifts.

[@throttlewatch4614]

This is like the Denali of race cars got all the options

[@Mohawk21-oi1nit]

Hey KEVIN! MY TOYOTA TACOMA JUS DID A 6.9 IN A QUARTER MILE!!!!! WANNA RACE .....MY FRIEND HAS A MONTI CARLO THAT DOES SOCCER MOM NUMBERS BUT HE CANT CATCH ME...... 2579LB TACO IS FAAAAAAASSSSSSTTTTT FOOOOOOOOOOODDDDDDDAH!!!!!!!!

[@Mohawk21-oi1nit]

4 years and 25.3 ( top fuel, Kevin approved, Cage.....I am liking the CUTLASS.....I would have chosen an 85 to 89 body style, but I got a Taco that runs 6.9 in a .25

[@Mohawk21-oi1nit]

Sounds like a boxer on the speed bag! KAAABOOOOM HAPPENS, DEREK.....BTW! YOU ARE STARTING TO LOOK LIKE BUDDY CHRIST BUT YOU ARE " MY BUDDY, THE MECHANIC"

[@timtaylor6147]

Kinda hoping when Lee decides to retire the viper from track use that you can get your mits on it and twin turbo that sucker

[@MrMaxEffort]

Why don't you do a Steve Morris steering column? 🤓 This car is gonna be bad to the bone..👍👍👍

[@guy_autordie]

Eddy worked? :D

[@guy_autordie]

And yes let them film the ranger built

[@johnfeaster9472]

Is lee not racing this year

[@KSRPerformanceFabrication]

He won Sebring, Pitt Race will be our next event in a couple of weeks

[@tutmaster2407]

Loved the onlyfans joke 😂😂😂

[@tracks_5991]

Let them film

[@notsofresh8563]

Man that AI generated video of eddie working is really good.

[@KSRPerformanceFabrication]

It really is! Lol

[@kristercarlson2635]

Is it your OCD that keeps you making videos to the exact minute? Last couple were 30 minutes exactly and this one is 32 minutes exactly.

[@KSRPerformanceFabrication]

Yep....

[@dalehannon4922]

Those two clowns with a ford engine HA!! do it it should be fun to watch!!

[@theaquarian5849]

Why is Eddie working!? Blink twice if you're under duress!
