Building Headers on Street Outlaws Shane's NEW Blackbird Vega

The new Vega for the 2020 season is set to make its first appearance at the 2019 PRI show in the TMS Titanium booth. Take a behind the scenes look while I build the headers and learn some DIY tricks from the man himself Shane McAlary. Subscribe so you don’t miss future videos with Shane!

Shane is in my opinion the most relatable person, does almost all his own work while holding down a job. Out there doing what he loves to do, inspiring others to do the same.

[@shannonphillips4384]

We would love to see Shane do more, more of the blackbird

[@nataliekayla12572]

Definitely more Shane he seems to be great person and I love his car.

[@81DEK]

Everybody likes Shane of course we want to see more of him.

[@lewhanna6112]

[@Evilempire-dg8dz]

Out of all the street outlaws Shane is one of my favorites

[@bobbond9730]

Definitely would like to see content of Shane working on the car

[@rogermoore7644]

More Bob and his dummy Shane! I love that car.

[@stanhanson4065]

More Shane

[@kysneekysnake]

[@pgrayrk]

Shane and the black bird have been my favorite driver and i also race a 75 Monza

[@stevenwalls7215]

[@jeremyhamilton1980]

[@allenrunyon5878]

Shane is cool, will always be down to watch his video.

[@adrianberryhill]

More Shane! Also @10:54 hahahahaha

[@bigcncguy]

Adrian Berryhill you gay

[@adrianberryhill]

[@bigcncguy]

Adrian Berryhill I got the app, that’s how I found you

[@adrianberryhill]

Shoot a dm silly goose

[@adrianberryhill]

John Knight D’arcy

[@keefespencer1173]

Hell Yeah to Shane being on KZbin I think it would be awesome if he came out with his own channel and if for some reason this engine takes a crap I think he should order a billet aluminum SBC block from CN BLOCKS they have SBC's that can go up to 560cid and if Shane built a billet aluminum block 540cid SBC with some 18 or 23 degree billet aluminum heads and forged rotating assembly with a billet steel crank with that Procharger on it Bob better hold on tight because he's going to go for a ride and Bob don't tell nobody else but Shane and you are my favorite drivers from the 405 and NPK lol

[@Stapleton42]

Bob is a snitch. Blabs to everyone lol

[@woodrowdelozier1]

Yes Shane needs to do more vids

[@operation6604]

I dont know why everyone calls bob a dummy when he's actually pretty smart to help out as much as he does lmao

[@jasonprentice1946]

I would like to see Shane do more on KZbin

[@TheCrankerYank]

Come on Shane!! Get your arss out there buddy!! Love the competition you bring to the 405 top ten list. Would move to see you take home the #1 crown.

[@bustinyanutz4195]

Needs more HP and traction if you want to see that, beating the fireball camaro (ryan) or big chief or daddy dave is gonna be tough but i hope BOB AND SHANE can do it but like i said they need more

[@jermainehouchins5216]

Is good to see Shane more on KZbin. And keep making your car faster I like the black bird Vega

[@ste_v1983]

Hell yeah Shane and Bob KZbin channel!!!!!

[@brandonlee5051]

Shane I wanna see you have a KZbin page that would be awesome

[@TxHammer757]

Shane needs to make his own KZbin channel for sure!

[@racefabwrench]

A common thread between your videos now and your older videos is you do a great job explaining what you’re trying to accomplish and showing the progression as you go. Great job man in all you guys do. Thanks!

[@Stapleton42]

I appreciate that!

[@Rudderify]

Yes, more Shane vids. I know you two have other duties and full time jobs but a vid of the car’s progress and y’all’s shenanigans would be very cool. Subbed, too.

[@bobbyforsythe6890]

[@sammygonzalez7627]

For being your second set of Headers, great job good work

[@Stapleton42]

Sammy Gonzalez Thanks man I appreciate it

[@19Clutch69]

More Shane

[@marcohuertas692]

Why he don't mount the shifter to the plate and then see where he likes it!! Sick tho

[@rustymohr6652]

Sure, I like Shane. Not a shittalkin', excuse making game player like some of them guys. Good 'ol boy, grassroots, homegrown racer. I'd watch him in videos if he so chooses to be in them. Liked and subscribed. Go get'em.

[@jasonwenzlick2303]

I'll see y'all boys tomorrow at PRI looking forward to the photo op

[@stevengrabowski667]

Like Shane Mcalary to make more,and let use know how Good or Bad ( Hope Not ) he is doing

[@ltsgarage7780]

I would love to see Shane & Dominator, pick up more money. This way both could do more racing. Their cars are under funded. I like Shane a lot. Every now & then he makes a great pass. Most of the time both of them just do OK!!!!

[@d.b.cooper6695]

SHANE!!!! good work guys love seeing Bob and you two other guys putting in work on the Vega cant wait for more vids and updates. Keep up the good work. Oh and Bob make sure these two dummies stay on track.

[@juiced71]

Man it’s hard to believe that’s only the second set of headers you made! You got that tig down! Looks fantastic!! Nice job!! Shane is on of my favorites for real!! Definitely pulling for him tho I seen he just wrecked again very sad!! Seems like a really good dude !!

[@AdrianPurcell916]

3 weeks till show, and ur working with a basically rolling chassis...talk about pressure jeez. Crank driven pro charger I just noticed sweet!

[@francisdsouza9499]

My comments to Shane black bird is I neeD him back on the track ... seems it has been long time I have not seen him RACING.... shane could u make the changes on ur setup and tune up by hemi big turbo block blackbirds...

[@rusur717]

Keep the vids coming Shane. You are the epitome of a BadAss Blue Collar Racer............

[@lumpycam302]

hell yeah Shane n Bob are cool

[@mndronenut5109]

Well more of bob but if Shane has to tag along so be it. just kidding Shane 's cool people and damn good racer. I agree with you on having the equipment from that garage would be sweet. P.S. Shane kick ass this yr and get to 1 on list you can do it.

[@matyLSX]

Great to see you working on Shane's car. Love watching stuff like this. Building headers is like an art. Hope Shane does some videos finishing the car.

[@derrickhayes1969]

Yea I would like to see him do more

[@glenngillespie5425]

Yes more Shane, Bob and the Vega!

[@jeffholley454]

Before Shane and Bob I just watched to learn more. Most of these guys are stupid is what I figured out. Shane and Bob should be the headliners of all the shows. Bob's personality is alot funnier than any of the real peeps. Fire them all and let them in the welfare line.

[@KSIXRIDER]

Need. To see more footage on the build of zshanes car

[@davidgranberry9806]

I hope shane go back an starte kicking ass this year you go

[@bustinyanutz4195]

He's gonna need big horsepower and lots of traction if he wants to make it into the top 3 with that said good luck BOB AND SHANE

[@dynamicdopamine]

I wish y'all lived closer to GREENVILLE SOUTH CAROLINA cause I'd love to have y'all build my roll cage in my 99 Hugger Orange SS Camaro

[@notyourordinary1045]

Absolutely, lets see more!! Have you asked Bob? What does he think?

[@Stapleton42]

Timbo He said he’s down as long as we don’t make fun of him for having no arms

[@bmxwylie]

Headers look great! I need some

[@Stapleton42]

Michael Wylie Thanks man! Send your car out to OKC and I can build you some

[@bmxwylie]

@@Stapleton42 I'm right down the road in Houston! I'm sure you could knock it out quick

[@Stapleton42]

Michael Wylie Shoot me a message on Instagram and we can figure it out. It’s @stapleton42_

[@briandickens4801]

Great set of headers. Would love to make a set of side exit for a body mopar with 383 factory front.

[@mjj6870]

well that fits because I feel like it would take alot of money to build car like that, I use to street race back in the day and we couldnt afford anything like that carm I am gald he can and I hope he kicks that white Mustang Chuck ass ,Go shane

[@davideudy7392]

Hey dude you and I see it the same way what that is, is art! Anyone can throw it together but to make it visually appealing , that's the trick

[@Stapleton42]

David Eudy Absolutely!

[@roaringcat1]

Shane get that Vega hauling ass. You are one of the street outlaws that is worth watching. Some have Ford's and I don't like Ford people that are on the show.

[@keithevans1731]

Shane is just a normal guy! Would love to see him be #1! With Bob by his side!

[@jeffleblanc8850]

Shane bring it on more you tube your the only guy that’s not all about having the best of this and that your boy did great job on the headers I like your shop better than the others it’s like your a guy that fans can relate to I can’t relate to all these other guys all they do is shoot ther faces all day a bunch of show offs you are the real deal building your car no big fancy crew

[@oikkuoek]

Definitely more Shane, The real Shane McAlary, please!

[@cpolt1192]

Yes definitely more from Shane!! I have always like Shane and respect him very much for how he handles himself. Go on Shane, lets see some more of ya!!🤙🤙 Black Bird TTF!🤙🤙

[@jeffperrault308]

Please do more videos,I like fab, and watching builds..

[@baby-sharkgto4902]

Absolutely beautiful headers. I want you to build a set for my car!

[@Stapleton42]

Baby-Shark GTO I’m a fabricator so we could make that happen

[@donavinadair9415]

He'll yeah more Shane

[@luvsthestarz66]

Come on Shane. Damn it. Bob is all over u tube. Now it’s your turn. Come on man!!!

[@georgejosephhaigh7725]

I love Shane's Vega from the first time I've seen it. I'm a GTO AND VEGA man myself , back in the day had a Vega wagon with a 400 small block. He's always been one of my favorite drivers from the 405 👌👌👍👍👍 😈🖤☠☠🖐🍻✌✌

[@edwardkesock216]

Yes sir I have a 75 two door vega just sitting had big plans when I bought the car 14years ago put a bigblock in it or a stout smallblock and back half the car but family comes first and the car has just been sitting maybe 1day I hope!

[@georgejosephhaigh7725]

@@edwardkesock216 Yeah I hear you , the reason I had to sell my baby because of the having a baby , but now kids are all grown , hopefully one day be able to afford another rolling body. Thank you for sharing my friend hopefully it works out for you in the long run , enjoy your family while you can they grow up to fast 🍻 have a great holiday & be safe 😈🖤☠👍✌✌🍻

[@stephaniebrooks2048]

Shane I see you are building a promod Vega , it's looking good buddy

[@thatslowsrtguy6808]

love the channel its awesome content is great and when my car is done and your racing near by i wanna run the escalade brother

[@terrykelsay6260]

would like to see more of shane and the blackbird vega

[@mattminnich3886]

Very great work.come Shane get it goin on here.. an keep the killer videos comen

[@garycorbin8460]

Be nice to see him outrun suck Bitemenger (AKA) Chuck. Lol

[@bbcvette1]

You need to shorten the wheel base up another foot, then it can just roll down the track.

[@bornfree180]

Pedals are on eBay or amazon for anything 110 and a few other variants

[@perrylankford4269]

Bring it on, Shane, Bob is stealing your limelight!!

[@jeffleblanc8850]

Also great job for only your second set of headers they look awesome

[@pbmachines972]

You said it. It has to make you warm a fuzzy 👌

[@Stapleton42]

You know the deal!

[@wesw9586]

Yes to more Shane! How critical is equal tube length for this combo? I do like how you think as far as the look and flow. Liked and sub'd The car looks completely apeshit and I wanna see where this goes.

[@Stapleton42]

In a setup like this it really doesn’t matter. It would be beneficial in a naturally aspirated setup with really tight rules. This combo is spending most of its time well under peak power potential so the “extra mile” type stuff like equal length primaries isn’t needed.

[@bustinyanutz4195]

In my opinion every little thing helps in drag racing so i disagree

[@supernedcouch4384]

Wow nice build should help it run faster too

[@Joe.G]

Shane is a awesome guy I hope to see him kicking ass again very soon. Much love ✌️

[@johnnygarrett3030]

Be nice to see him back out there.

[@gstjohn03]

More Shane and Bob! The Blackbird is badass!!

[@vhc7764]

Yes, let's record Shane's new build!

[@socalfun64]

I would enjoy seeing Shane in videos and you as well. Shane’s always seemed like the underdog whenever he was on the show. That is something he should embrace more and get back into the mix. maybe start doing some no prep. I understand he’s not rich and is working full time but it’d still be nice to see him and the Vega (and Bob) more. 🏎😎

[@Stapleton42]

Socalfun thanks man I appreciate the feedback

[@tjberry7715]

yes we all would love to see more of shane and bob

[@izzykustomz]

Would be sweet to see more of Shane

[@jefemoreno6414]

Fuk yeah Shane upload more vids , wins a win lol
