Independence Chevelle Gets a New Exhaust System!!

[@tylershort1069]

I love that you work with all these other KZbinrs, it’s like a crossover on a tv show, but this is real stuff, awesome info in your videos!

[@dalebickham2666]

More viewers, more money. Especially with big channels like vgg or cleetus

This guy puts knowledge and tools/ equipment together,, to get the biggest BANG for the buck.. in more than one way.. I enjoy watching this channel..

I'm with you on that brother he is real he don't talk all that stupid crap no disrespect to vice grip but that s*** just gets on my nerves I'm sorry this guy right here gets it done he don't talk all that crap he's about it you're a good old boys have a good holiday

[@thagerdorn2009]

@@jerrygoad3093 then don't watch buddy. Derek is one of the most down to earth dudes you'll meet and his videos are amazing and hilarious and he's as real as they get. Your negativity is not needed here. If you don't like someone then don't watch their videos, simple as that. Kevin is just as down to earth and real as Derek is. Neither of them do it for the money and you can tell that in how they handle themselves. You sound like someone who likes Whistlin Diesel, and that kid right there is only in it for the money...OR, how about you start doing videos yourself if you don't like others videos and you just want to comment negatively. Have a fantastic day.

[@stuffandjunkandthings364]

That car is such a unique blend of high dollar, precision, thoughtful design, and junk parts. Love it.

[@edwardcornell1263]

Those exhaust stickers are there because they don't store the pipes in a box in the warehouse. The only time the pipes are in a box, is during shipping. X pipes are used in more than one exhaust kit.

Came because of Derrick and his family, stayed because your a swell dude. You and your crew. Continued success.

[@JaakkoTK]

Independence Chevelle didn`t have a clue what kind of endeavour she´d have when Derek hooked his peepers on it at the first time! What a journey and it`s so nice to see that it continues in good hands of KSR! Cheers from Finland!

[@jeffatkinson3288]

I wish the Independence could talk. Would love to hear it explain it's life story.

It’s a great day when another KSR vid drops especially when the content is the VGG Chevelle 🙂

I’m absolutely stoked to see this classic taken from scrap to its new life and new found glory!! I truly appreciate guys like Derek that save cars like this. Watching you and your shop put so much time into making the Independence Chevelle so awesome is good for my soul. Thanks

[@Buzz0812]

So the big blue ruler is called a drywall T square not something you see to often in a race shop, btw try spraying a little lacquer thinner on those stickers it should dissolve the adhesive on those stickers where they wipe right off.

[@tylervanorman492]

I was hoping for a set of boom tubes under this beautiful freedom mochine.

[@themc3311]

I think a guy is going to be really thrilled once he gets his car back. Great work as always. Can't wait to see it eat some tires.

[@harleywainscott6059]

I love how your hand-on-camera motions and lingo, almost matched Derek when talking about quarter panel. Great video, thank you!

[@earronroberts7658]

Like always, great video! Drew is a fab monster! I know, he welded my trailer on SickWeek....

[@goblenator9688]

I swear I learn something new every time I watch your channel. Putting the supercharger in a slightly different angle so it lines up under load is something I would have never thought of.

Hey Kevin ... that "long blue ruler" is called a T Square ... lol ... ;)

[@HammerWrench]

I have always loved the sound of an x pipe. If I weren’t running a straight 3” in my Excursion, x pipe would be in there with duals. I ran an x pipe on my Lincoln Mark VII in the early 2000s. Even dragged it at Bradenton against the Impala SS guys at our Southern Super Heavy shoot out. Was so much fun.

[@UpTheCreek496]

Nice work Drew!!

[@mannyfernandez2921]

KSR nice video! You got yourself one hell of a worker in Drew!

[@4113N5]

If anyone deserves a nice looking subscriber count it’s Kevin and his crew. The amount of content they create for us all is amazing! There’s not that many fab channels that can hold my attention for long, I watch all of the KSR uploads from beginning to end and thoroughly enjoy them all. Keep up the good work Kevin, we’re all proud of y’all guys.

[@c117ls7]

man that sound is something else!

[@timcollins9345]

There's a VERY GOOD REASON for the stickers on exhaust parts, when the box gets separated from the part it can still be identified, inventoried and sold. 👍👍👍👍

[@KSRPerformanceFabrication]

Why not etch the part instead of a sticker? That seems way more simple to me!!

[@matthewb8229]

It does me good to see a shop like KSR do things like I do. Specifically cutting the exhaust with a cut off disc, instead of a chop saw (which I don't have).

[@4speed3pedals]

To clean off the glue from the stickers, try spraying it with CRC or a similar product. I have had great success with this method.

Sheeshhhhhhh. She sounds MEAN. Reminds me of all the late 90’s/early 2000’s nascar Winston cup cars with the x-pipes. Man they were loud af. You could feel it in your chest and it was awesome. Epic job gents!

Beautiful work!

[@3gunshooter60]

Awesome job guys. Derrick will be stunned 😲. Can't wait to see it back out there at the burnout competition. KSR is one of My favorite channels.

[@gullreefclub]

The exhaust pipes pointing at the tires in theory is a good idea but in practicality not so much because the temperature of the exhaust gases exiting the pipes during a burnout will set the the shredded bits of rubber from the tires on fire which looks cool but can and often will send flaming bits of rubber into the crowd. The exhaust on Neighbor and BoostedRides Deathtrap truck both had exhaust that pointed to the tires and have been changed because of the flaming bits of rubber. Not this past Cleetus and Cars but the one prior to it BoostedRides got shutdown because of the exhaust blowing flames and hot bits of burning rubber into the crowd. I am not trying to bust anyone chops just trying to give forewarning about the exhaust system exit idea

[@KSRPerformanceFabrication]

I believe that was from a fuel leak that the exhaust was blowing on

[@rebelpride1653]

Also this is the reason they changed the exhaust on toast while it was at summer nats

[@chadkeller2144]

Independence sounds awesome - can't wait to see what she does on the dyno!

[@halfnelson6115]

The Chevelles engine compartment looks great. And that lathe/mill thing you have there is pretty sweet. I want one.

[@Garage.Philosophy]

For the amateur burnout comps here in Australia we mount the radiators in the trunk with the thermo fans facing towards the sky which also helps propel the smoke upwards !

[@sheldonhall4572]

Hey just a helpful tip from a sign shop owner, invest into one of those magic eraser wheels that attaches to an air drill with variable rpm. They make a few different styles, they will peel the stickers off in seconds and no sticky residue!

[@Op1zilla]

I got to do a lil welding today myself, it was fun, ggz-

[@mohicanjoe2079]

That thing sounds beastly....nice job KSR 👍

[@bryansaull7554]

Try this to get rid of stickers warm them up (don't burn them) with a heat gun and they peel off, we find it saves ages in the workshop if any residue happens to be left a bit of solvent does that job :o) cheers Kevin.

[@bryansaull7554]

Also when its still warm sticky and in one piece you can slap it on the build sheet if traceability is a thing with your business ..

[@jimo2627]

I just dig how it sounds I've loved this car from the beginning awesome job fellas 👏

[@MIKEH.777]

To stop your problem with your cooling fans on your car overcharging from your 16 amp. Battery . Just put resistors before each fan and then it will not hurt the fans. Independence sounds great, Keep up the great work you guys do and God Bless you guys and your families.

Kevin, and for this matter all of you piping and exhaust shops.... Our shop uses simple kitchen film or typical warehouse shrink wrap over our pipes and *then* we put stickers over that We realised this problem pretty early on, it's really nothing extra for us to do and it saves guys like you time at the other end!

[@KSRPerformanceFabrication]

Brilliant!!!!

[@Multi-Skill-Bill]

I mentioned this to you one time before. Look up Anti-Zap. It works wonders for welding with electronics hooked up. I have used one many times as a diesel tech. Worth every penny. Big time saver.
