[@UglyTruckExperience]

🕷🕷🕷 We haven't done a GIVEAWAY for a while... First person to find the THIRD SPIDER in this video and send us the timestamp gets a $20 O'Reilly Auto Parts gift card and some UTX stickers! 😁😁

[@jonvasquez4729]

Ok. Watched the video on a bigger screen than my phone, counted spiders…1)6:08 spider on Emily’s jeans. 2)15:27 tiny spider hanging from a single strand on the right rear bumper. 3)16:21 tiny spider in a small web at rear left front wheel well. 4)16:29 a little bit bigger spider in another web, front side of left front wheel well. 5)25:00 bigger spider in hood insulation. How did I do?

[@UglyTruckExperience]

Oh man, you really are committed! You found spiders we didn't even know about! 😆 Someone else found #3 this morning... Check out 1:02:26 on the orange wire crimpers! 🕷 I'm working on some new UTX swag, and I'll be sure to send you one for your exceptional spider hunting skills! Thanks for playing, Jon! This was fun! --Emily

[@jonvasquez4729]

I missed that one… I’m useless. Thanks for the great builds

Your Soooooo Blessed to have This Lady Working You” Without her’ You would be Lost & No work would get Done..😄

[@UglyTruckExperience]

You are correct Bernando. She is the best. Absolutely couldn't do any of this without her. Thanks. Jerry

[@142dogs]

Great Videos, I kind of watch in the shop while I'm working on my projects. Then when I'm done I have to go in the house and watch again so I can absorb all that information. So I watch each video at least twice. Thanks🙂

[@UglyTruckExperience]

Thanks GTO! We appreciate you watching our stuff!! 👍 --Jerry and Emily

[@jmooney2880]

Yes! I needed some UTX today!

[@UglyTruckExperience]

We're here for you! 😆 Thanks Mooney! --Emily and Jerry

[@bulletproofpepper2]

Clean parts with old gas. Thanks for sharing.

[@UglyTruckExperience]

Thanks Sam! We appreciate you watching! --Emily and Jerry

[@gregbaker439]

What a bummer.thanks guys

[@UglyTruckExperience]

It wasn't the outcome we were hoping for, but the fuel system and cooling system are set up and ready for the LS. 👍👍 Thanks Greg! We appreciate you tuning in!

[@hardball107]

Great video. Rotten gas ? Mix it with the old motor oil and burn it in your garage heater during the winter. Everything goes thru mine including mineral spirits and contaminated reducer from cleaning my paint guns. I'll be watching the SL swap, shouldn't be to bad with the fuel system in place.

[@UglyTruckExperience]

Hello Ken. If it isn't to bad, I run it through a 72 c10 that I drive to use it up. The 350 that is in it seems to run on anything I throw at it. I have had some fuel run through the waste heater and it made us a bit nervous. Been thinking of a way to mix the oil while it is waiting to be burnt so it is not separated so bad. Jerry

[@jeffcoble4353]

Awesome video guys!! like the earlier comments I liked everything about it until the very end, but you guys made the best of it and turned it to a positive I so appreciate everything you did on it and everything you did was to perfection, who would have known🤷‍♂️ I’m so excited for the upcoming LS swap and your gen 4 ideas. But until then, maybe I can work on some of the other issues on the Blazer!

[@UglyTruckExperience]

Thanks Jeff. We loved working on it. It will end up being a great Blazer. Jerry and Emily

[@GrandPitoVic]

Great cause I am doing an Ls3/4L80 or a 6L80 swap. I Havnt decided on the trans yet. Going in a 03'Crown Vic Police Interceptor. I can Def use the videos with the Gen 4 stuff. Great video as always.

[@UglyTruckExperience]

Thanks Hugh! We're looking forward to the Gen 4 stuff too!

[@trentdawg2832]

Great video!!

[@UglyTruckExperience]

Thanks Trent!!

[@3gunshooter60]

Please replace the hood insulation. It's been driving me nuts! 😜😜 Love your videos. I'm looking forward to the 6.0 swap + 4L80? , 4L60?

[@UglyTruckExperience]

Hey Randy. I didn't even notice that. I am going to have to go watch it now and pay attention. It will be fixed!! Rest assured. Thanks. Jerry and Emily

[@geebobwiz]

If no one has asked for it… I’d be willing to buy that Edelbrock manifold and FiTech from you. I have this very year K5 and have been wanting to upgrade the fuel system for better running rig and couple extra ponies.

[@UglyTruckExperience]

Hey Geebob! We need to keep the FiTech, but we'll be tearing into this engine soon and we'll make you a smokin' deal on the intake! Send us an email at [e-mail] and we'll work it out. Thanks for tuning in! --Emily and Jerry

[@geebobwiz]

@@UglyTruckExperience will do

[@KarlGillcrist]

great video until the "other people's project gremlin"showed it's ugly head!!Man I've been there my brother and I once installed a 350 in my cousins truck that ran great until we went to top up the anti-freeze and it came up the oil dipstick because someone had left water in the block and it had froze and left a 2"by 4" hole behind the push rods.I'm glad you got the EFI working my nephew has that system on his 78 Z28 on top of a 455 Oldsmobile and it works great.looking forward to the Gen4 swap Karl from eastern Canada

[@UglyTruckExperience]

Thanks Karl. I really didn't expect this one to go the way it did. I would love to know the real story on this project. We bought Emily's 70 c10 that was sold to us as a running truck. It ended up having a hole rusted through the cylinder wall to the cooling jacket. Olds 455. Nice!!! Thanks for tuning in. Jerry

[@GrandPitoVic]

Don't worry bout bolting that puppy down. The vacuum lines will keep it off the exhaust manifolds lol.

[@UglyTruckExperience]

🤣🤣 No kidding!

[@bobbywells8408]

Was really hoping it would be ok but after all the other crappy work I kind of figured that motor was shot also

[@UglyTruckExperience]

Hey Bobby. WE were hoping too. I can't wait to tear this engine apart someday for fun and see what is going on in there. We got down to the end of this and at least found out that the fuel system is working properly again. So it wasn't all bad. Thanks for watching. Jerry and Emily

[@GrandPitoVic]

Got it 1:06.20. On the orange and black handle crimpers.

[@UglyTruckExperience]

DING DING DING! WE HAVE A WINNER! Good eye, Hugh! Send me an email with your address [e-mail] and I'll put your stickers and gift card in the mail. Thanks for playing!!! --Emily

[@GrandPitoVic]

Thank you guys. That was interesting!!!

[@netster7601]

good afternoon

[@UglyTruckExperience]

Hi Alonso! 👋👋

[@GrandPitoVic]

After dealing with stuff going out or breaking days after the warranty went out I buy extended warranty always now lol.

[@UglyTruckExperience]

It's crazy how they time it to fail like that! The power supply on my editing computer lasted FOUR DAYS past warranty!!! 😒 Thanks for tuning in, Hugh! --Emily

[@jesusj.medrano2419]

Can you post a link to the cinch clamps you guys use for the fuel lines. Im second guessing myself on these pex clamps. Great videos guys. Definitely liking and subscribing.

[@UglyTruckExperience]

Thanks Jesus! Here's a link to the clamps we use, but we've used the Pex clamps from Lowe's too. These are available in more sizes than you'll find at a hardware store. amzn.to/3UdnQeD We appreciate you watching our stuff! --Emily and Jerry

[@jonvasquez4729]

Watched 2x, never saw a third spider. The black critter crawling on the ground (next to one of the shop inspectors) was a beetle. Also, does the blue bug say TDI VW? I must know more…

[@UglyTruckExperience]

😆 I appreciate your commitment! I promise it wasn't just a ploy for extra watch time! 😁 The plate on the Bug says TOY VW. It's still the original 1600?cc and factory Hurst shifter. JBugs just dropped off some packages this week, so you may be seeing it again soon! --Emily

[@jonvasquez4729]

I heard Jerry say to make sure the in tank fuel pump hose is submersible rated, but do we know if the heat shrink and solder stick butt connector are ok to be submersed? I’ve never thought about that before.

[@UglyTruckExperience]

They're both supposed to be ok for fuel, and we've never had any issues... So don't jinx it!! 😆 Thanks for tuning in, Jon! --Emily and Jerry

[@UglyTruckExperience]

On a side note, I would not use it in high ethanol fuel. Good question. I should probably mention that at some point. Thanks Jon. Jerry

[@treborjm87]

I had that same thought about the heat shrink tubing. I recently bought some cheap AutoZone (Dorman brand, I think) that completely disintegrated in less than a month. Lesson learned… get the good stuff!

[@Chevrolet1994]

Awesomeness as usual! What kind of butt connectors do you use? Where can i find them?

[@UglyTruckExperience]

Lol, you said butt... 🤣🤣 Thanks Chad! Here's a link to the solder butt connectors we use. They're on Amazon. amzn.to/3ucf45B Thanks for tuning in! --Emily

[@Chevrolet1994]

Thank you!

[@abrdds]

I was sad for this 350 over heating , but you are L S swapping it, so, ok🙃… will you have to re-wire the next engine or since it is already wired, plug and play ??

[@UglyTruckExperience]

On this one we will try to have as much as the wiring done as possible. Will do the fuse box and end up doing the last couple wire and hopefully be done. Jerry

[@bobbysanders6231]

Wondering if ya"ll got the gifts.

[@UglyTruckExperience]

We did! They're awesome!!! Thank you so much! Keep an eye out for a new video in the next couple of days! 😁 Thanks again, Bobby! --Emily, Jerry, Ripley, and Juice

so nice to see your hair getting long again...

Thanks Lyncht1967. Your probably commenting to Emily, but I also grow my hair out in the winter and take any complement I can get. 😁😁 Thanks for watching. We appreciate it. Jerry
