That is ridiculous people giving you a hard time about building engines. YOu did an excellent job, and Danny did such a great job walking you through it. I forget what problem you had with the first one, but you are both human, and it was your first build. So awesome seeing you run 12's with it now on an engine you built!!!!! Keep building them, and never mind the naysayers, you are not pizza, you cannot please everyone!!!!! Greetings from Ontario!

[@HorsepowerHouse]

I just love how so many complainers and knitpickers try to tell these honest good, hardworking people how to do things. But when you look at those peoples' alleged KZbin channel, they have 0 Content, 0 subscribers, they have Nothing to contribute to any of this other than their alleged Professional opinion, which is obviously not very professional If they're not trying to help others in more ways than just criticism.

[@HOSS-DADDY]

On the Hotrod BBQ podcast, they interviewed the owner of POR-15 and he said himself, that it can be called by either. Not that it even matters

[@phillipcortel6330]

Olivia! You have my permission to be out in the garage! You want to learn and you are learning. I appreciate the fact that you want to be learning stuff out in the shop. Danmny is a good teacher. Learn from him, and enjoy yourself out in the garage!!

[@rickeyracer44]

Olivia, I think it's so cool that you enjoy learning how to build engines, & being involved working in the garage alongside Danny. I wish my gf was more into this also. You have the right attitude to learn too, keep at it, you get better by turning wrenches and learning from your mistakes. If you really have a passion for it, you'll find it even more interesting each time you learn something new. When you guys first introduced this Charger project all I could think was pass on this, although now I see it coming together and really looking forward to seeing this build to the end. Good job guys!

[@BelowAmbient]

the sad part is 383's mob pretty good... 512 is chocked from the headflow so youll need a few grand put into flow work for good HP... of course the thumbnail depicts this but yeah

[@BillyJoeJimBob28]

They looked pretty hogged out, but not smooth. Danny needs a Dremel. or Liv.. 😎

[@patrickfahring6086]

POR 15 has probably done more to save old cars than anything in the whole world. Doing a great job with the charger guys. One of you is going to have to get a 9.90 license 😮😮😮

[@CJColvin]

The 68 Charger is going to be a beast when its all done.

[@vernhoke7730]

I've always called that stuff "Poor 15", like "For". I've used gallons of it, living in Central New Jersey, the excavating company I used to work for would plow snow and de-ice with rock salt in the winter. Most of the trucks with salt spreaders ended having the frames painted with POR 15 in the fall prior to snow season.

[@johnhancock7063]

POR is an acronym for paint over rust.

[@TheHord]

Not even 6 mins in and you guys have me smiling and laughing, love it, especially the 3000 lb hood 😂. The struggle is real when someone is making you laugh while trying to hold onto something heavy 😂. Big Wave is a boat, but she is awesome! I would have thought they would have been close to the same length. Those are some nice parts for the Charger, thanks for sharing, can't wait to see it all assembled and running! 🍻

[@robertbisson9499]

The "POR" stands for "Paint Over Rust" 15. Class is adjourned.

[@MoParRus340]

Put some junker rug on the floor and hang that awesome new heatwave rug on the shop wall.

[@calid6960]

The charger build is going to be bitchin' when you guys a done. Love it.

[@BillyJoeJimBob28]

You mean GitterdDone! 😂

[@Cradletothegrave67]

Looks like a Moparty going on at the shop. 😎 You guys are killin it !!

[@32road]

Relaxing and enjoyable watching y’all’s shop time. So relaxed, no drama. Love watching the Charger transform. Thanks and keep ‘em coming!✌️

[@infocusentertainment2944]

Great Show!! I don't see the technical haters making their own show so just shut up and watch this great channel. You can build my motor.

[@garrettfrancis1429]

Probably would be a good idea to take all the motor parts and have the machine shop verify all the clearances of all those new parts. More piece of mind.

[@marshallbravestar1972]

I dream often about adventures with Mopars! 😊

[@joehishon3305]

Liv I just finished using POR 15 on my new project ! A 1955 Chevy 4 door wagon and I call it the same as you haha great product 👍

[@garywilson12]

doing a great job on the charger body work danny. liv your first engine pull also a great job. you both have come a long way on producing these videos. and dannys rite, olivia your talking in front of the camera has improved so much. you sound so much at ease in your explanations of work thats being preformed. congrats to you both iam sure your channel will grow to new heights.

[@ultra4suzukisamurai679]

Loving the mopar content!

[@chriskayakq-ster7264]

Love all of this stuff ! Never been to the west coast so I enjoy your videos big time!

[@josephrohn4780]

We all make mistakes! Sometimes they are costly! We learn from them and move on! Stay in the shop! I love a woman who loves the kitchen and the shop! Keep up the good work!

[@1975napier]

Well done on the Oreilley’s commercial, saw it during this video.

[@josephferrea9628]

Wheel well is done that way for the rear window to roll down in to it

[@BillyJoeJimBob28]

Ahh... good to know, for them. I only have a Hot Wheels Charger! 😥

[@dallasbramwell6235]

Thank you for this video, you guys are great as a team building your cars together! The charger is my favorite nice car! I have always loved chargers!🤩😍🥰💪💯

[@maxmillion4216]

Liv cook me up a big block for dinner. That's going to be a fun build.

[@terryeustice5399]

Thanks guys for sharing.Glad to see the Charger Build. Sorry about the garage door. Have had that happen at my home. And those springs are really dangerous. Thank you for sharing. 💯👍👊

[@tonymorse7178]

Lots of eye candy!! Those heads are so sweet. I think it's wise to use Trickflows' total pkg. Let them do the R&R, and run with it. Metal work is looking good, nice to see you using a rust encapsulator on the inside. I find myself smiling as I watch you guys open those boxes like Christmas!! I'm a Chevy guy, but '68 Chargers are easily my Mopar fav. Keep on it, watching 2 people do it themselves makes it that much better!!

[@chrismorrison9140]

I remember when Holley made power packages in the early 90's and their intake and heads did absolutely bupkis so they had to rely on the cam guy to meet the hp numbers that marketing had already advertised.

[@BillyJoeJimBob28]

​​@@chrismorrison9140Imma guessin Bupkis ain't a good thing...? 🤔🙄🤥 😂😂

[@kimdearrington258]

You should have bolted a board across the the wall and screwed it into the studs in order to prevent the garage door from stripping the bolts out of the plywood, and shortened the bolts a little bit in order for the threads to bite all of the way in and not have a smooth shoulder that doesn't bite into anything. Just my suggestion for a permanent repair of the door spring.

[@BillyJoeJimBob28]

I was thinking the same thing. Screw & glue a piece of 2x6 on the wall to bolt the spring bkt to. Course it would need a 1.5" thinner bkt. Edit: maybe the pros just moved the spring bracket over so the bolts went into a stud. 🤯

[@kimdearrington258]

@@BillyJoeJimBob28 I want to thank you for responding to my comment, and agreeing with me. I thought the exact same thing about the bracket needing to be shorter, or further away from the wall so that they could install a 2×6 across the width of the door, glued and screwed. I am pretty certain that this will do this again. Had they built the wall with an actual 2×12 header over the door then this would have never happened in the first place and they could have bolted the spring directly to the plywood because behind it would have been a multiple plated header over the door that was glued and screwed together with plywood between the boards in order to build a proper header.

[@TheSaxon25]

its gonna be a ripper!! cant wait for the first burnouts!!! the kitchen is useful for heating up the harmonic balancer so it goes on the crank nicely 🤣🤣

[@BillyJoeJimBob28]

& bakin gasoline alley Christmas cookies! 😂😂

[@kimdearrington258]

You just keep learning young lady, I think that you are doing fine, and already have way more knowledge than most young women, or women in general!👍

[@justinmcsweeney9385]

Call it whatever you would like, mainly wanted to let you know it is a great product but it's not UV resistant, so you might want to top coat it with something UV resistant in spots that sunlight might shine on it.

[@BillyJoeJimBob28]

Are u tawkin bout that Poor15 stuff? Can't take the sunshine? Wi'll be. 😂😂😂

[@davidowen888]

You kids are doing great !

[@elwoodsummersjr596]

Great video, can't wait to see that Charger on the road, Liv you're such a pleasure to watch and listen to ❤❤❤

[@bobtucker8875]

Very interesting 🤔 content guys. Really lov the car, thanks 👍 for saving it. Enjoy your content 😉.

[@jameswalters2793]

Love watching you guys. I've even learned a few things watching thanks ,and for all of us bigger guys how about some iron on decals

[@GnarlySpeedShop]

We just added 3XL black tshirts to the website but patches are a good idea!

[@THE-SHOP]

Nice work definitely going to have fun with this one when finished. Digging the fab work.

[@RustyEast]

I'm excited about this build 🍻

[@donsmith8614]

Liv is so cute & has a sense of humor, it looks like xmas came early with all those new parts, that's going to be one sharp charger! Another informative video, keep them coming.

[@justinhromek73]

Lots of go fast parts! Gonna be fun!

[@robhanhart2730]

Fun to watch the Charger project, wishing you succes with it, Greetz from Holland!

[@genestroup1879]

You guys are awesome love mopars

[@ivycycles]

POR-15 is awesome stuff, you can even use it as a kind of resin with fiberglass when making small repairs where welding might set fire to things. It hardens like a rock and stays put - just wipe everything down with acetone before painting. I recently used it as a base coat for my 350Z differential that I modified to fit my 240SX.

[@mikeanderson9922]

Love your guises videos I love the fact that your wife is out there with you when wanting to learn to learn I think that's the coolest thing the haters go hate themselves you know a woman can do things two❤❤

[@bksalkrook9348]

AS i always say all the best to you two,,,,,the dynamaic duo :} this cars is worth every penny your investing into it !! im very sure not only is it going too bring you two joy !! its going to be worth a small fortune when the chargers is done

[@KrisGreenhill]

Wow, people actually told you to stay away from engines and stay in the kitchen? What trash. You keep building, and ignore that nonsense. I can't wait to see this giant Mopar. I desperately want one.

[@maximuswedgie5149]

Great video, also good job on the garage, they called those springs widowmakers for a reason. You guys handled that well. Serious butt puckering going on there.

[@barryk253]

Liv’s first solo engine pull and not a single drop of coolant on the ground 😂🍻

[@elmo8nine]

Building the exact same engine on my 69! Can’t wait to see how it comes out

[@donreinholz8121]

That engine will be a beast with all of those goodies. Should be fun to see the body when it is finished.

[@thebuffbeatnik8848]

Hey great job guys! My first thought about the wheel well is to lift the back up higher 😎👍 but I like the 70s look on that type of car. Im sure whatever you guys decide will be great though 🙂

[@davedeuel6568]

I'm thinking a good temp name for the Charger would be "Rusty"

[@Murderermarv]

Watching you guys release the tension on that spring was giving me flashbacks to my grandfather trying to remove the window air conditioner on the second floor of his house. Straight anxiety 😂

[@johnjwedrall4290]

Hooray Olivia ❤👍

[@billcobb9408]

Its crazy how fast 20K goes or approches.

[@marshallbravestar1972]

It looks great 👍🏽

[@tvdroid22]

Really good factory heads is a bit of a misnomer. They are great for low and midrange torque, but not for high rpm HP. Mopar had the Hemi for that so the 906 was pretty much the best non-Max head.

[@Sleeperdude]

I was introduced to por15 over 20 years ago I always pronounced it poor15 also. It’s good stuff

[@kratoscraken5614]

I need that car 👍

[@deanwharepapa8561]

Awesome can't wait

[@armondoborjas4362]

Well. Its coming together Danny great fit yeah 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻liv first engine pull 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😎

[@rickyestes7477]

It's so nice having another set of hands when working on a project no matter what it may be... I'd be afraid to ask my wife to come help me out in my garage on a project 😂....not really but I wouldn't unless I absolutely had to

[@Topstreet808]

That’s going to be a mean motor 👍🏼

[@VATION3RD]

Miss liv everyone i know calls it "Poor15"

[@birdmandavej]

I love those wheels 😍

[@BillyJoeJimBob28]

Oh HeII Yeah! 😎

[@OnlyTheEd]

Santa likes giving "Eye-Candy".....I mean, car parts....✌🤪 (Edit: The passenger side front fender is still from a '69, but maybe that marker light opening can be filled in and modified to look like from a '68....)

[@bradinch1563]

you are doing a great job. but i bet someone on there knows someone that can soda blast it, it will be so much easier to work on and will look so much better when you are done.you will thank me later. will you be going on the hot rod tour west in dec???

[@johnwhelan723]

Nice build when it's done, I have a nice 73 340 Challenger Rallye in my fleet. PS How about shipping merch to Canada?

[@robertstimsonreed7439]

The Beast.

[@BillyJoeJimBob28]

Combine your name & highpower3006 = Rusty the Beast! 😎

[@bigbearvenom6145]

I thought this gal had a different named channel before, this is new to me. I haven't been on you tube for awhile. Trying to remember even what it was called I think she used her name in the title. Who ever said she needs to stay in the kitchen is crazy. She does excellent for a female wanting to be in this field, even if its just her hobby, and wants to learn, and get involved, I love the enthusiasm. Wished my ex had been more involved with my excitement about cars, it would of been so much better for our relationship. She acted like she was enthused about it early on, but once we were married that was all over.

[@kimdearrington258]

I hope that crankshaft has not been laying on its side the whole time that it was being shipped, but that short period of time should not have an affect on it.

[@zman7953]

The unboxing is cool. Save the outré video. Just ordered a shirt. Cheers U 2.

[@romeoalphafoxtrot9517]

Olivia might not be the strongest, but she is the most beautiful! That's what matters! ;-) She's pretty darn smart too!

[@kennnethrohm4448]

Im just curious now, you are actually making 2 different stock car builds unless I missed something from a video I didn't see, you have the stock car build going on with the Chevelle and now the Charger, I'm curious who is going to drive which ones 😊

[@smilsmff]

personally i would have been Building the 383, Since Crankshaft is much lighter with smaller Journals , 440Source sells all that for 492 cubic inches.

[@zcam1969]

goodies in the engine room

[@kelvinboyd7459]

P-O-R 15 Mopar 4 life

[@Groovy_ls1]

The audio on the video sounds way better now

[@mikeanderson9922]

I've been a Mopar guy forever I had a 69 Charger and I love the 383 motor more than the 440 383 big block spins like a small block and I was making $680 horse out of my 383 and my 69 Charger so go Mopar

[@manuelester7420]

Id love to see a restoration of a Chevy Nova. 68 - 72 , two door vinyl top.

[@barryfrederick3305]

very nice uniform Olivia.

[@stevewelborn8744]

Quick question is the camshaft a hydraulic roller?

[@highpower3006]

I'd call the charger "Rusty"

[@toddclark332]

383are great motor to build girl ❤ put a scat or eagle bottom end it would be badass

[@Bruiser69b]

POR is an acronym for Paint Over Rust

[@jimchurchman2628]

POR 15 = Paint Over Rust 15.

[@MichaelChunn40]

Charger, Satin Black will show off those great lines much better than the Gold. Thx :)

[@jeffreypepple3198]

Just a hint for the bulge in the wheel well....the inner is the same as the outer except no bulge. I used inner from passenger side on the driver side outer and vice versa...no more bulge

[@davidreed6070]

I would like to hear the specs on the Cam

[@dennismcwilliams6281]

Ya gotta paint that car Black ! lol

[@DAILYDRIVENJUNK1983]

How much for the rockers?

[@XX-ns7kf]

What year charger is that really? You have a 69 grill, the 68 isn't a split grill. You have a 69 passenger fender (the rectangle marker light), the 68 chargers are the only ones will circle tail, brake and marker lights out of the 68, 69, and 70 chargers. The drivers side in this video is showing a circle marker light.

[@BillyJoeJimBob28]

Your right! It's a 68/9 Charger! 🤣

[@billcobb9408]

Its a 68 engine . The date is on the block casting

[@hotrodmaker1638]

You need another poll and two springs

[@livinglikarockstar]

rookies, mopar blocks have dates on them. at frame 10:59 to the left of the boss plain as day "68" so this in fact could have been the original engine.... so sad. before u say you don't know anything, ask me how i know or check my vlogs for built 383 in my 65 Fury III which came from a 68 New Port, same date stamp embossing and my original engine sitting on a stand in my carport with 65 date stamp. both of which i can send you pictures of to confirm... oh well it's not all original so it really doesn't matter. Nice job on the metal work.

[@66gsstage23]

Name your car the Gnarger

[@user-xi9nn8xx9k]

I like watching you two!! I think you should get married for Christmas!!!

[@genestroup1879]

I've done those roll up doors that very dangerous I almost cut my hand off doing that same thing you doing there.

[@robertmitchell832]

Thankyou for calling it what you want and ot caving to trolls.
