Can this AMC JAVELIN RACECAR Live on the Street with ALUMINUM RODS in a Bored and Stroked 401???

[@Brianshrader6357]

I think that car is awesome . Love to see you and your Dad hanging out and working together. My Dad has passed on but he is the reason I got the car bug .

[@OldTimeRevival]

Sorry for your loss. Thanks for watching! Tim Davis, Jacob's dad

[@jimcabezola3051]

I just enjoy a visit with you and Mobes in the shop. This AMC is coming along nicely. I especially like that you're expanding this car's performance envelope, so to speak. Looking forward to seeing this car out on the road bringing more smiles. Aloha!

[@SallysSpeedShop]

Thank you Jim! It’s a good time in the shop for sure!

[@ricwatkins1437]

Coolest street car I have EVER seen...Two thumbs up.

I love your Javelin and it's so inspiring to follow your efforts to turn a racecar into a street car. I did follow your during Sick week really fun to see how you got there! 😂

Thank you man! It was such a blast doing that event with this thing!

[@travisshephard5491]

My family was family friends with Donnie Johanson (son of Howard Johanson of Howard's cams) for 25 years before he passed away. My dad retired his Anglia Drag car with a big block Chevy that has Howard aluminum rods in it from racing and made it a street car. My dad was worried about the rods having issues. Donnie assured him that there was nothing to worry about. Those same rods have 15 years of 9 second drag racing on them at 14.5:1 compression and now 30 years of street driving, and the engine was upgraded to a mooneyham supercharger on top of that about 10 years ago. He took the engine apart and put smaller compression pistons for the supercharger, rods measured and looked perfect.

[@OldTimeRevival]

Wow! That's good to hear!

[@marks8603]

Y'all need to make a showing at The Freedom Factory for the 2.4 hours of LeMullets and Cleetus and Cars... Would love to see them ogle an AMC and see what old school is like!! Back in High School a bunch of guys were driving AMC's.. Good times....

Sorry to hear that. Just sell one. 😊

Thank you man! You gotta keep at least one of them haha

[@johnsarian_cu]

It sure looks faster than 10 sec LOL. You may have survived Sick Week. Real test probably comes middle of this summer in GA though. Back in my day we said days were hotter'n'Gawjuh asphalt. And that's a real thing! Hooo.

[@SallysSpeedShop]

Yeah, I think we’re gonna need a new motor if we wanna try that haha

[@gilbertwashburn7095]

Cool 10 miles is good back in 1979 I had a 69 Camaro drag car my trailer broke the drag strip was 30 miles away so I drove it at 5:57 gears with a spool and a big block yeah I took the back roads but still is challenging it didn't like it but I didn't care here's a 10-second car those are the good old days No registration or Insurance of course have a great day thanks for the video

[@SallysSpeedShop]

Haha I like your style sir!

[@billsalzman]

So exciting

[@Amxracer]

Definitely have the exhaust turn and go out the rocker .

[@OldTimeRevival]

Agreed

[@SallysSpeedShop]

That’s the plan in the future. Didn’t have the time to do it that way and get everything else done before sick week

[@OtisENGINEuity]

Told you those 4 link mounts weren't strong enough. (saw it on 1320) Everyone owes the oval tube to Holman Moody I believe. If I remember right they developed that for their Torino NASCAR car along with the long tube header that all the tubes sat side by side and went into a flat collector. You dropping that collector on your foot.. I had a pressure treated 4X4 land on mine the other day, right on my big toe. Unfortunately steel toe boots start at $179 for size 15 and that's $109 more than I have. As a guy that went to college for TIG welding let me just say.. NEVER EVER EVER EVER EVER try to bridge a gap with a TIG! You want those pieces touching, if you can't do that break out a torch and braze it. (which actually is better for exhaust as it handles heat cycling without cracking FAR better) When you weld metal together with TIG you want there to be no gap at all or at max 1/16th of an inch, gap filling just makes it extremely brittle, especially on stainless that gets brittle at high heat when exposed to the air anyways hence the "sugaring" on the backside of the weld when not back purged. You can also braze using a TIG torch with a bare silica bronze rod too but I haven't done that, I'm not sure how you get it hot enough but not molten with a TIG. What the hell is with the lifted 4x4 Caddy?

[@OldTimeRevival]

The caddy is a little project we need to do some work on. Thanks for watching. Tim Davis (Jacob's dad) Sally's Speed Shop

[@OldTimeRevival]

You can see the Caddy on four of our older episodes, if you'd like to see and know more about it.

[@SallysSpeedShop]

Yup, we found that out for sure haha And that’s very cool history, thanks for sharing that! We cover everything about that Caddy some older videos!

[@AndreasAndersson-ve4jx]

I was once loolking a bit @ race car projects to build back for the street, because it seemed like it (can be) good value for money, regarding how nice things you get..... I could not have afforded something of this class, but still nice to see a video on the topic.. In this car, nothing is left of the original inner structure & hidden compartments, right? It is the outer shell peices attached to a tubular frame? I.e. all rust in hidden compartments (if there were any) is also eliminated? That is also a good thing with this kind of build...

I have heard for 50 years that you cant rely on aluminum rods on the street because they get heated and cooled so many times that it induces fatigue and eventual failure. Dont know if its true.
