[@dfitzism]

Cool video engine should run really good.

[@garageguy5174]

Would you ever paint a block? I just painted a hondaGX160 I did the block read the side cover and valve cover white and it looks pretty good!! I also took the governor and put a cheap ripoff Mikuni carburetter that I got off amazon for 25$!! Love the vids keep the good work up!!

[@turbolaser24]

Yeah I have painted them a few times. Thanks I appreciate it

[@stanlucas665]

I’ve dropped many a valve spring. I do find them however about a year later... 🤣 Good luck finding yours before the next parts shipment.

[@turbolaser24]

[@BallisticAdventure]

bro... that beat is sick. Reminds me of the wicked Clownz... where did you get it?

[@turbolaser24]

I downloaded them from KZbin music library. Its hard to find good ones lol

[@RAWRMotorsports]

Love your builds dude mabey one day I'll have the equipment I need to do some fab work ✌.. info on your bender ?!

[@turbolaser24]

Thank you that means alot! I started with minimal tools . My bender is a jdsquared model 3 it works great.

[@RipThatVette]

I’m looking at picking up a bender. What size tube do you mostly use on these builds and what CLR do you recommend for the Dies. I was thinking 1”od with a 3” CLR

[@turbolaser24]

I use 1" with a 3" CLR the most, that is the first die I bought and now I have 3/4", 7/8", 1" and 1.25"

How does that big block compare to the built small blocks you were running before? I know they rev lower but make way more power/torque. Is it faster with the 420 versus the 212?

[@turbolaser24]

I havnt ran a 420 yet but it should definitely be more torque than small block and that is what I want

[@ceannahuffman2786]

Do you have plans 4 sale for drift Quad frame?

[@Tota1Everything]

What kind of metal is it made out of

[@turbolaser24]

1" .095 wall cold rolled steel tubing

[@Tota1Everything]

Should I get 1" by .12 wall
