Congrats on a 100k, It’s only the beginning. I’ll finish the video tonight at work🤫🤣

[@dakotaharbert935]

I'm glad I've been along for the ride. I have learned alot.

[@Dragonsofglory]

100k down next stop 1 milly :-). You deserve so much... You are humble informative kind and you turn wrenches and teach ppl to do so too

[@i-_-am-_-g1467]

we appreciate you dude, no bullshit straight to the point content Certainly a change from the clickbaity or churned out for the sake of it videos Can't wait to see this finished either! going to be so rowdy

[@loganstone6929]

When you turned the button to Logan and she had the helmet on and said safety first I literally spit out my drink!

[@renesanchez3072]

I LEGIT LOL'd at Logan wearing the helmet while filming the plaque! Whew, that was hilarious!

[@Stapleton42]

Hahaha

[@sirmonkey1985]

100% was not expecting that, lol.

[@Bowtie_Mike7319]

This series has really given me some insight on when I do my 4l80e swap on my C10. I’m slowly piecing everything together for it. I’m only pushing 8lbs right now but I want to go more and I know that wimpy 4l60e is screaming for mercy right now.

[@TheDucatiDads]

You’re just down to earth and don’t pretend to do be anything you’re not. 90% of people recognize and appreciate that. Pretty awesome that Logan is cool with being on camera and has the right attitude to deal with the internet. Keep killing it.

[@Stapleton42]

Thanks man you’re right

[@johnmoniz2715]

Can’t wait till the LSXcalade is back up and running!!!! Love that thing so much!!!

[@whiskey1737]

Man you gotta give yourself more credit. You make awesome content that helps a lot of us get through our day. I've never met you but it just feels like im watching a good friend do what they love. Keep them coming and we will be here to watch brother!

[@ericbrown5354]

Can't wait to see Logan's helmet hair....

[@dave1135]

Love your channel, no drama, no clickbait, just you giving no nonsense steps on how to get whatever you're doing done in the easiest way possible. You explain it so even the most noob guy can understand, but also doing it so us old well seasoned mechanics don't feel like it's been dumbed down. And I love your girlfriend, she's not afraid to jump in and get her hands dirty to help you. She's definitely a keeper. And congrats on your KZbin play button, it's symbolizes all your hard work to get where you are. Here's to a million.

[@408modelshop]

I speak for everyone when I say, we love your channel. Also I drool like a hungry dog when I see that monte in the background. Can’t wait to see that thing more.

[@Stapleton42]

Man me too it hurts to not be able to do anything with it

[@joecameron3406]

I like videos like this just remember you're never to old to learn. Latest nylon fuel line need 1 vice, piece of exhaust pipe with a short slot and flare tool clamp and you can push fittings into line

I passed by the next day after I dropped it off hopefully to see if u opened it up congratulations!

[@Matt-zi8ud]

I'm not even domestic guy and I've been watching these from start to finish since subscribing. I appreciate any car/truck thats fast and the work that you put in. Keep it up

[@psnFORTYOUNCE]

Honestly, this channel should be a hell of a lot bigger then it currently is. People are really missing out on quality content. Good shit.

[@a.burton8473]

These videos save my sanity as I sit in the car waiting for the kid to finish lacrosse practice. So happy you post on the same day she has sports.

I can't wait to see this yukon done. I've wanted to do this forever but as a single father, time and money definitely won't let me at the moment. But I love watching it!

[@Stapleton42]

Mad props man

[@dsshowerpan]

Congrats on the button thing, bigger congrats on the cross member and getting Logan to wear a helmet.

[@Smokeybuilds_]

Cant wait to see the monte carlo back on the road. And cant wait to see uncle rob at the track that should be fun and interesting

[@gr4eme1975]

Yet more great content. Making it simple really helps people realise they can do it. I’ve always been of the mindset that if I try and fail I have still learnt something and next time do it different. All of the skills you see people doing are achievable if you try. Getting over that initial fear of what if is the key. Once you’ve done it a few times that fear goes. Your brain says fuckit let’s go.

[@stainlesssteelrat2821]

the Escolade drew me to your channel ... how you got that lump to be that fast demanded attention .. fair play to you , all the effort is paying off.... KUDOS sir

[@westdaff8460]

Congrats on your play button. You might look in to an 15" evolution saw it's more economical than a band saw and it's a game changer going from abrasive to the cool cut and the extra inch of blade gives you so much more room for activites.

[@jeremiahjohnson5610]

Well deserved sir and well done. You and Logan make a good team. 500k here we come. Suck it cole

[@bradleystrazzarino4909]

I am loving the uncle rob build series. I myself have an 04 Tahoe and I am building up the 4.8 in it. Thanks to your videos I have now installed an hd2 shift kit in this Frickin 4L60-E lol, but I digress. Thanks for putting out the videos they are the reason I have found, and subbed your channel.

[@HotRodDave]

Congrats Mitchell. Don't down play your success. It comes easy to some and not so easy to others. Logan with the helmet on was pretty funny Mav

[@1SGTDORN]

Regardless of what happens good or bad with any builds or projects you have, you keep it real and true which is 100% of the reason I follow and will continue to do so. Keep up the amazing work, and congratulations on the milestone!! #longboigang

[@Scottholiday13F]

Been watching the videos but not going to lie. Just watched this one for the welds.

[@joethebarber1]

Congrats guys! The wife and I love watching you and Logan's adventures!

[@Stapleton42]

We appreciate you guys!

[@jsee2385]

The space created by the material removed by cutting something with a blade/disk is called the "Kerf" by definition. Mostly a term used in wood working. Still applies though.

[@relicoutdoors6510]

Bro, I watch you guys almost every night. My 2 sons love your peoples track vids. Please don't ever change.

[@somethinglikeawelder4250]

Love you attitude bro. I been here since you were sleeping in the escalade. I even 4l80 swapped my ls6 swapped avalanche a year ago. And I still watch every episode. Your alot wiser than your years. And since Im twice your age with 30 yrs of racing, driving and fabricating, I feel that is an accurate assessment.

[@Stapleton42]

Thanks man. It means a lot

[@charlesstarnes713]

I love the Uncle Rob build. I have a 02 Yukon XL the same color. I love Suburbans and Tahoes.

Good job Team SAW ! Blows my mind you don't have more subs compared to other "car channels" most kids these days want shiny, new, flashy things and don't appreciate or value the time and effort. I appreciate yous twos hard work!

[@Honcho40]

"Escalade on the exhaust" quote of the day. But anyways good to see the progress on uncle rob is coming well. Also would love to see Logan weld the new exhaust for the Escalade

[@ok_boomer4709]

The escalade got me interested. Then the newel stuff was like "WTF" Unsubscribe .... Then you went back to the escalade ... Subscribe ..., the it blew up. Uncle Rob has been what I think people can relate to. Turbo an LS 5.3. It would be great of you could get Super Tuner Tanner to show us a little HPTuner tricks on UR. Yellow Belly has been fun as well.

[@RyKnOw331]

I'm watching this video as I open the package of my SAW Tshirt.....honestly it's pretty cool not only how much I relate (I have a similar Uncle Rob) and how personal you both make it feel to support your channel. Will be definitely supporting more and taking tips on the 4l80 swap 👍 great job, loving the content

[@sendit9129]

Definitely the easiest way it can be done in my opinion. Also, just gonna make it really clear that I hate any sort of abrasive cutting. I always end up cussing and screaming because I got cutting wheel dust in my eyes, burnt my hand, and the cut looks like trash. Been waiting on a deal to pop up so I can upgrade.. but of course, that takes time. I'll be watching the Murda's stream at the hood track tonight, better see you there!

[@BariLopesh]

Been a rough couple of days for ole #69 in and out of hospital trying my best not to die, was nice to get out and see a video to watch 🙏🏻 as always man appreciate the time and effort you put in to educate and entertain 💚.. Hope logan has better days than she was having 🙏🏻

[@stanleyflory6702]

I would also weld a piece of 1"X4" tube on the far side of the opening, just to give it a little more strength, after all, it is a "race car"! That piece is also a cross member, as well as a transmission mount, so eliminate as much flex of your frame as you can! JMHO!

[@jacobjones3163]

Man he is definitely someone as someone in there late teens I can look up too

[@johngreen5951]

If you are interested, milwaukee and Diablo both make a carbide tips blade for a skill saw for cutting steel. A little noisy but they will cutting faster then your chop saw.
