Junkyard Motor First Start! Proving The Internet Wrong!

[@timothyfritsch8801]

i assure you both theres thousands of us that do not spit out advice or critize and make comments we appreciate that you know exactlly wat your doing and its very cool

[@DDSpeedShop]

Thanks dude!

[@LeonardMagnusson]

in your camp sir.

[@jeremysmith6905]

The grammar in your statement shows a lack of intelligence…

[@clasicradiolover]

Yes!

[@Poppas_fun_on_wheels]

Absolutely 🎉

[@bryanmeyers5476]

I enjoy your channel. Seems to me what you do matches perfectly with the 70 year old tri-five Chevy cars. You work with what you have and make do. It’s always fun when you take your first drive in a car that you literally assembled from used parts.

[@chapmanracing1206]

Keep doing what you do Dan. There are a lot of us that love watching whatever

[@raymari7658]

Idea for the roof. On another channel a guy used bed liner spray. Sand to bare,prime, tape off where seams would be, spray a build up , then spray enough coats for good coverage. Looked pretty good.

[@travisshephard5491]

I'm sure you already know this because of how many distributors you've installed, but you know the oil pump key on the bottom of the distributor lines up with the rotor. So you can stick a long screwdriver down and line it up to number one and the distributor will drop right in fully engaged.

[@GlenBridal]

What an awesome way to phrase some help. You must have some school teacher skill in you.

[@brendagaunce8757]

Glad you changed the intake and valve covers. Old school has to look old school, Great video every time D D Speed Shop

[@DDSpeedShop]

Thanks so much!

[@tombeasley1943]

It's so nice to not hear the airport anymore. Nice nicer place to live than the old place.

[@themitchielpricer]

i like how dan spends time smothing out metal work on his cars & freely thows metal tools & stuf on the fenders & hood..

[@EarlwithanE]

about 8 minutes in, I had to laugh when Dan tried to start the car, it quit and then spit out a wrench on the floor....So DD Speed Shop....another great vid Dan and Danny!

[@leahcimthgirw3163]

I got myself a rebuild kit from RockAuto for my 77 Impala 2 Barrel 305 so glad I'm watching you finagle it first

[@mikecore1637]

Dan with point ignition you can make the points just begin open at the timing mark (motor not running ) and your timing will be spot on first time . But what fun would that be .

[@budlanctot3060]

I was going to say same thing for points ignition. If HEI is like Chrysler electronic, then you rotate body of distributor until the reluctor wheel lines up with magnetic pickup and the initial timing mark at 8 -10 ° BTDC. Then, wherever the rotor is pointing is #1.

[@shadetreemotorsports]

Yes so easy. Been doin that for 40yrs.

[@ralphhayward5693]

I enjoy the content. Danni's titles don't always match the content because Dan always seems able to work around a problem. All the best to you. 🇨🇦

[@hippydippy]

She loves her "Click Bait!"

[@DDSpeedShop]

I try haha

[@ajcarlton88]

I totally did not read this comment right the first time. Danni's titles ....not for the backwards reading brain

[@Briangbn]

Don't forget your socket on the gas tank strap.

[@junksautomotive]

Hey Dan, I'd bet the needle is sticking on that little 2 jet. Tap Tap Tap! Cheers from Junk's Automotive...... oh, comment add at the 9:28 mark. I hate it when people comment before watching the whole video... like I just did 😊

[@mcdonaldm73]

A little bit of red RTV on both sides of the factory gaskets for exhaust manifolds works miracles on headers!

[@DDSpeedShop]

Yeah you ain't wrong

[@kevinwright1551]

Awesome job. That 305 motor sounds good. For setting for a long time. You can find more of them down the road like that 305. Keep up the great work.

[@bradleymckay365]

Come on Dan you finally got a real nice shop and you pour gas right on the floor, get yourself a barrel that you can fill with all your bad fluids and when it's full take it to whatever shop you want to work with and you give them free heating fuel and they give you a discount on parts or labor. I do that with a local shop and it helps us both out.

[@david929190]

We burn natural gas in AB.

[@LeonardMagnusson]

the guy with all the kids and goats and pigs got a kids little pool. seems to work real well. no more messes on the floor.

[@johnkranz4004]

Nice work Dan and Dani

[@johncornell3665]

Thanks for all you do. Enjoy the content!

[@JakeWeddle-zo4xv]

Drop a little bump stick in it. If it can't play the part at least it'll sound like it can 😝. Great video Dan!

[@scootermcd5756]

That’s why you always run water until you get the bugs out.

[@kennethlaw9830]

When there is flame inside the carb. Just crank it. It will go out. I've done the same thing. Your first thought is to put it out. If it's outside the carb then yes put it out.

[@henryallisonsr8318]

Just want to say hi and tell you that the best motor I bought was from a junkyard and I put it in my 78 chevy van. Hope you all are having a good day God bless and have a blessed night

[@stacetriebwasser6425]

Reality doesn't get any better!!! Thre are plenty of us who have no idea what we're doing and have no room to criticize others on how they do anything!!!

[@mamma7119]

Dan you need to run the numbers on the motor with the thickness of the harmonic balancer it should be a 350 but who knows the one thing that I love about a small block so many things will enter change

[@Tim-57]

Hey Dan&Dannie Good to hear her running. Take care😊

[@tomlappin9657]

Great progress looking forward to the test drive

[@TheAverageTinkerer]

Love that sarcastic “weekly shower” 😂😂😂

[@mikea.2306]

That 305 with those pipes sounded insane.

[@DDSpeedShop]

She was a little noisy

[@mikea.2306]

@@DDSpeedShop awesome is the word. The 57 wagon I picked up as a project has a 305 in it, so I’m super excited to see the outcome.

[@marctorigiani4558]

I just want to give you a heads up don't forget to break in the cam unless maybe it was a used camera lifters that was already broken in before but if it's new you got to break it in

[@slowpoke870]

What a hack I love it😂😂😂

[@shartne]

I agreed it would run. It looked good to me. Four barrel with headers and duals you cant go wrong there. Looks like you didnt cut the fender up as much as usual. You did well. I got a college degree a bacholors degree I have not changed for the better or worse.

[@Zazu2You]

This video sure went by fast!! I think you will be much happier with a 4-bbl on that 305. Nice work. Cheers!! 😎

[@3gcraftsman]

I’m digging that blue color. 👍

[@JCbull]

Thanks for all your hard work

[@butchcollman5953]

propane torch works great for getting those check balls out for the accelerator pump just don't get it too hot or the fuel well below it will start leaking then that's a whole other issue you have to use epoxy to reseal it I've done this many times on carburetors that have sat around forever

[@RandyBills-f7q]

Wire tie those gauges to a coat hanger works GREAT

[@Robert-ni6ut]

That motor sounds great this is going to be one peppy hot rod 😮

[@IowaBudgetRCBashers]

That’s a great intake. And it looks right on the 55 with the fill tube. Now ya need Chevrolet script valve covers

[@Poppas_fun_on_wheels]

I keep hoping some day we get to see you build another first gen Monte Carlo

[@Lobo479]

"It'll be better, or worse, or the same"...... Dan DDSpeed Shop

[@michelswerissen6544]

The hackery is just awesome.

[@AntRielly]

What is seen. Cannot be unseen. Damn dude.

[@GearheadStew]

Breaking in the cam and the neighbors at the same time! LMAO!

[@DDSpeedShop]

Haha

[@1320gearhead]

You probably already know this but I did hear you ask yourself if you were turning the distributor the right way. To advance timing turn the distributor in the direction that the vacume advance is pointing. Vaccume advance always pulls.

[@Red9GearHead]

Love me sum DDs Speed chop! Let er rip!!

[@billhacks]

ringette being synonymous with oilberta? really? I thought it was more of a frenchy/onterrible thing. 305 with go fast stuff is awesome! fits our Ab aesthetic perfectly. It might be slow but it will rattle windows and give anxiety to yuppies. You two are awesome!

[@jerrygaynor4384]

Dani always wants to go in town and we haven't ridden in the 55' in awhile. Can you take us a trip of your new town one day. I think that would be pretty cool.

[@brettemerich3237]

Dan you get good comments and bad comments in the end it’s all a plus. Dan time for a 4barrel carburetor ,yes

[@markmccabe934]

When there's no drain on the radiator Cut in a piece of pipe in the lower hose and thread in a plug or a valve so you don't have to remove a hose every time you need to drain the radiator.

[@Steve396-u8o]

Pop some 1.6 rockers on the intakes for some cheap horsey power. Love your channel, Daniel is a hoot.

[@markoslejsek5974]

What about a speedway dual 2 barrel set up you can put on a 4 barrel intake manifold. Cost about 750 00 dollars. Comes with everything you need 2 install it and looks old school cool. As soon as I can afford it I'm going to buy one.

[@vwbyoy88]

I'm the same way. Built a nice workbench that's always full. Have a couple of tables and carts......and still put the part on the car to work on it. Watch yer Schmutzes!!

[@tomlohan4741]

Dan I can't wait to see the 4 door on the street

[@NoWr2Run]

" THAT WAS RIDICULOUS " LAUGING MY FUKIN ASS OFF.

[@bigfoot-bf5wp]

Lo ve the blue and white color on the car 4 door is as cool as 2 door😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊

[@jasoncooper3116]

I wonder what cam is in it.

[@marksanders1942]

Do we need a 4bbl on bone stock 305? Do we need fenderwell headers on bone stock 305?

[@longjohn77]

You're gonna love the rear wing and hoodscoop he has in the works!

[@xozindustries7451]

It’s all coming up Millhouse!

[@brucepowell7986]

fill the carb via the overflow on top then try to start get them tools and loose plugs off the engine they will shoot like missles if they hit the fan its your face.................the dist should fit aprox half way between the carb and firewall if its off its prob a tooth off on the cam/dist

[@mamma7119]

Pachoom the beautiful sound of tdc there are 3 C's to horsepower carb cam and compression in the old days

[@michaelwittke8336]

Get yourself a white board for the shop. I have one in my kitchen for groceries. Write down on the board what you need as you think of it, snap a pic with your phone before you go out... And get a small "kiddy pool", they work great for draining oil and coolant

[@TheInternetSaidThis]

The dry erase board is a good suggestion and one of my most valuable visual aids in my work from home office. Now there is one in the garage for the goings ons out there as well!

[@bensymington5550]

❤❤ I love your videos, awesome content😊

[@BudFranks-fu9ye]

Awesome. Glad it runs👍👍

[@matthewcox1122]

Love dragging my weekly shower a few extra weeks 😅😂😂

[@matthewcox1122]

It's not that I'm stinky just as long as the wife don't complain about me washing my car oil hands on her good towels 😅

[@ozmister101]

the trick to truly cleaning a carb is coke for two hours no more rinse with water then carb cleaner. spray enough to cover the bottom. let it sit 8 hours. rinse with gas.

[@EricVanDorn]

While I was running errands this morning, I found a used car lot with a 57 Chev 210 4 door for sale asking $22k USD. Condition; Stock, At least 90 % complete drives, Little old lady car....

Dan, The Tri-five savior!😊👍

[@stephenh.bunkybyrd2024]

Diva Dan with the plan

[@YenaS-l7g]

Yeah it's in need of a small or medium 4 barrel 🤔

Danielle. Please play your guitar again!😃

[@vanguy7810]

Here in BC, Lordco is only closed 1 day a year, Christs Birthday

[@DDSpeedShop]

It's handy

[@coyboybc]

My enquiring mind will wonder if Dan will ever move his rolling tool cart next to the car he is working on?

[@Dennis-BL51]

Love the video on the radiator!

[@YenaS-l7g]

It's running 🏃‍♂️ pretty 😍 needs more love and a carberator

[@gregboppel2511]

What is that "CRUSTY Stuff..under the hood....spray on hood blanket ??

[@darrencolbeth5119]

Well if your going to put a 4 barrel intake and cab on it,you might as well put those LT-1 valve covers on it too

[@IowaBudgetRCBashers]

I don’t see anything wrong with a 305. They’re good motors and have decent torque. Side note I like that it’s blue, 55 only they were blue. 56 switched to the trademark Chevy orange which was until the late 70’s.. I dig this car a lot

[@ibraunchy20-vn5kd]

Those little 305's can make a decent stroker motor if you do it right, I ran the snot out of one for a few years

[@Terkamer]

Dan got excited and messed on the floor ?

[@rickydonahue1586]

That's a perfect little motor for a daily.

[@murrayhelmer8941]

Well. To Heck with Danny and the Horse she rode in on!! 🤣🤣🤣

[@moreschmoo]

😂😂😂😂 love ya!

[@murrayhelmer8941]

@ couldnt resist after your horse photo!! 🤣🤣

[@natives602CC]

those beat up plug wires are a big issue...

[@treetop.garage]

Nice a 4 barrel ..I'm sure it runs good now ..

[@GreyMassey]

Vacuum advance hose? Also thermostat will help.

[@michealgiron9340]

It's not the liquid gasoline you have to worry about, it's the fumes.

[@mamma7119]

Love the content you crazy kids but Dan I don't mean to say anything bad but on these carbs fill the float bowl through the little pipe that goes to float bowl you might save your eye brows and it gives the fuel pump time to pick up the fuel

[@cobyburrow9339]

Was this a new cam?

[@rexkean]

It lives!

[@charleskuchinsky5028]

Work harder not smarter keep up the bad work always entertaining

[@RandyH-qf3dc]

Dan, everything was going OK until you stopped the video right before you got it running. The same point as last video. It's not nice keeping us hanging! This isn't a Netflix series! Nice to see your breaking in the floor of your new shop, and the hoods and fenders of your projects 😆. Love DD speedshop.

[@briankendallRyanandBrian]

its all about the clickbait when it comes to titles it seems.

[@Red9GearHead]

Is this the first DDs episode where Dan doesn’t get his hair caught in something?

[@davidmobley5984]

I like the hair green cool color 😊
