Yes

😂 I would slap those everywhere

[@smokincb7311]

Loving Brians attitude towards things not going as planned. He looked gutted at first but by the end of the video he had completely turned around and decided not to let it get him down

[@b.rod36]

It's amazing the perspective that can be gained with a little time and a little weed.

[@LMSCa18det]

17:45 The GOD of SR engine, wow that sick. No more rocker arm poping out, rev like 9k RPM and "VVL".

[@SKOMPAS]

I think that might be the king of s14’s

[@KIINGS100]

Even higher then that tbh sum rev to 11,000 rpm 500+ hp

[@levibeatson3247]

The older 20VEs from P11 Primeras sounds a lot more vtecy, the one in that particular S14 is a P12 20V head if I remember correctly, better for power and flow but doesn’t sound as good as the older ones

[@jimbob2013]

Oof e46 ls with an available dyno Brian’s about to have a real good summer

[@alejandroguillen1159]

Brian’s logic is just perfect lmao. SR with 600 on pump gas, yea you can trust him as a engine builder” 👍🏽

[@IvanGrogan]

no goofy shit but the vibes given from Jimmy’s video are literally unmatched. best content creator I know of

[@bryanmcguire6274]

I cannot wait to see B Halls face whenever he first starts up his BMW with that LS inside with that Chop Chop going on

[@adamstilldrives]

That thing gonna thump real hard. The build quality of an e46 ain't no match for it, you'll still do jiggle on idle when sat in that thing

[@mrspookypoo727]

I love how Jimmy bleeps out only half of the swear words he says and the rest he just lets slide😂

Tech tip forget the rods to hold the lifters, if that thing is on an engine stand roll the motor over upsidedown gravity holds them lifters in place!

[@BattlingWarrior1985]

That S14 is insane he is gonna be a force to be reckoned with especially when he goes E85

Brian's ls swapped e46 is literally one of my dream builds, part for part. I'm so excited to see more videos on it! You've got good taste Brian 😂😂

[@mitchellpile1111]

we need to see more brian on the channel so fun to watch him

[@xenolard]

I think I love Brian. He's such a chill dude

[@AMLagonda]

yep I think he smokes it.... and has a bag of it too.

[@pauqq6398]

JP’s car is insane!! Good shit Brian

[@josephmatuszak3855]

Idea for Jimmy on Dyno Ramp Cheap Option - Quick Jack/Scissor Lift Add tabs or joints or pivot or something to ramps and middle of scissor jacks for max stability (could bolt to ground, or add anchor/pin) Maybe one Heavy Duty one slid inbetween the ramps that lifts them both? In either case, I'd have some kind of bar or rigid 3rd piece to the ramps to stabilize/level the ends.

[@Hammy_J]

B Hall needs a win! I know he’ll rock it when it’s built and good.

[@Deadboy412likesguns]

It’s lowkey mind blowing how simple a v8 is once u see it getting taken apart I’m def gonna have to build one it looks easy asf

[@dnappi85]

gotta love it. tuners helping body guys. body guys helping engine guys. tuners helping engine guys. engine guys helping tuners. engine guys helping body guys. it's a perfect circle. A perfect example of being good at what you do.

[@jnewman1991]

Don't forget to do the trunion upgrade on those rocker arms. Did a cam swap on my roommates 2016 SS, pulled the rocker arms off and the needle bearings were about to ruin his day. Known issue on the engine. The CHE kit is great, my Caprice Wagon, roommate's SS, and friends Trans Am are all running them.

[@Rx7TyreBurna]

That will be so nice! I did the cam bearings on mine anyways while it was out. I just bought new ones, dropped them in. I'm excited to see Brian enjoy the LS when it's done.

[@dylans.7606]

Finally a v8 that someone will actually drive! Jimmy!!! The red z just feels neglected haha all the love man congrats Brian

[@padensutterby3911]

So happy to see some v8 stuff on here again. If it makes you smile that's all that matters

[@YotaguyJosh]

B always does it right. No chill whatsoever. 😂 this is gonna be sick.

[@brandengilso7491]

Brian I’d suggest doing the trunnion upgrade for the rocker arms summit sells them pre assembled for a decent price

[@pozzie1968]

Was about to say the same thing, cheap and easy to do and when you pull them apart and realise how easy it would be for the little rollers to go through your motor, it’s a no brainer.

[@bikgid81]

Pulled the intake off and the ports were already filled with paper towels. Pro level magic!

[@zipptardnim]

"momentum is what kills everyone's builds" true that nothing worse than waiting for parts and losing your steam

That is definitely the most reliable way to go!

YES!!!!!!!! My son and I are gonna start his e46 LS swap this summer. Can’t wait to see B-Hall’s ripping! And JP’s Zenki! 😍😍😍🤤🤤🤤 Makes me miss my Zenki SR20!

[@pabloemilioescobargaviria6951]

THIS IS THE BEST CHANNEL ON KZbin !!! WOW THAR S14 SOUNDS SO BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!

[@CarlosAvellanet]

Water pump bolts are handy for low mileage/new engine cam handling but for a high mileage engine cam removal your best bet is to put the cam sprocket back on and use that instead. That would give you much more controlled leverage to get that crusty cam out.

[@michaelsmith3959]

For the Dyno put a bottle jack under each ramp so when you get the car on it you can just lift the ramp up then support the ramps on axle stands

[@cd5sircoupe]

Went with my friend to get a fwd SR20 LSD trans from the shop next door to your old one / aka Derek's current shop but like 2 years ago when he first moved in. They had a few GTiR swaps and VVL things there at the time that he wanted but not enough cash flow to justify it. These guys were like the only place in the country that had that trans on the shelf ready to go and like 15 min away, or approx. 2 minutes from his sister's bar across the tracks. It's been a ripper since the car got on the road and those dudes were a huge help. He's got an NX2k GTiR swapped that took years to build, one of the few and first people in the country to do so afaik.

[@kanethomo2483]

Can’t wait to see Brian’s smile when he finally hears that chop chop coming from his bmw ! 👌🏼

[@briansaenz4392]

I grew up in a Southern california shop doing the same. Good to see.

[@vancemccarthy2554]

Jimmy's place is now a one stop shop with a hands on specialty team.

[@AshleyCaunt]

That VVL build is wild! I need me some B Hall positivity for my own builds, what a legend 🤙🏻

[@dustinsexton5273]

JP with the crazy Sr build 😍 and I’m pretty sure Bhall has the same engine mounts I’ve got for my ls e46

[@zerohourdrift]

Hyped to see bhall running it v8 powered! That accompanied with the overfenders, better seats/suspension, can’t wait to see him ripping!

[@johny79action]

Connect the front of the ramps with a thick pole and jack it up!, you already pretty much are doing that already or use quick jacks to raise the ramps.

[@michaelcastorino5184]

The driver side of the LS’s are always rough looking because that’s where the pcv valve pulls from and the fresh air goes into the passenger valve cover.

[@SupraHenry]

He loves the LS-Z so much he never drives it

[@luiscaballero6119]

JP is legend in the east coast coming from a guy that is from the west coast 🙌

[@damianhartigan4]

So good to see you all together had such a great time. That sr was insane. Love the videos always. Keep up the great work

[@GamEricTTV]

I miss my Beamer so much. Brian is an inspiration!

[@prestonsrc]

Idea💡 make a bridge between the ramps under the front of the car (a sturdy one) and use a jack to lift it up and some jack stands to prop the whole show up.

[@RPS13DRlFT]

damn that zenki with the navan and vvl was hot! I hope Brian re-enforces his rear subframe mounting points if he hasn't already

[@zacharyballew4320]

No more comments about those soooo worried about Brian's power to weight lmao. He gonna be slayin them tires now.

[@themarkedoffgalaxy]

That s chassis looks fire with that rear window visor and spoiler combo! 👍🏽

[@dutch2smoked927]

jesus that thing sounds so wicked for an sr20 i never knew about the VVL head ty for learning me something new

[@Brock_Landers]

So, for those that have never known what NEO or VVL stands for: Nissan Ecology Oriented Variable Valve Lift and Timing (commonly known as VVL & VVT) is an automobile variable valve timing technology developed by Nissan. VVL varies the duration, and lift of valves by using hydraulic pressure switch between two different sets of camshaft lobes. VVT varies the valve timing throughout the RPM range. Together they function similarly to Honda's VTEC system.

[@BigJimmyLifts]

Love Bri he is a proper chilled guy but funny as fuck, always whacked as fuck, I’m wrecked watching this and the Vibe is unreal.

[@cameronmurphy7205]

I’m a very simple Japanese engine in a Japanese car and a euro engine in a European car type of guy, but this makes sense. I’m pretty pumped to see this swap done. Keep the amazing content rolling!!

[@ButteredUpToast]

I like how brian thinks especially how when he was explaining why hes dropping it off with JP

[@zmohan69]

Best choice for motor imo. I love my ls swapped rx7. Its so damn reliable and plenty of power to drift pretty much anywhere

[@travisneuman749]

LMAO. "she's already crowning?" Lost my shit hahaha

[@jesusmartinez8730]

just the mention of slippin BFD in has the motor fightin

[@draggonhedd]

good to see brian back, been missing him on the channel Also the works on that S14 are my favorite wheel. User icon relavent

[@Kevo.x85]

This swap is awesome. I’m usually not a big LS Swap guy on a import but this really makes me want an LS lol

[@Daveytoonasty]

Oh my... please please show as much of this as possible this will blow up I can name a handful of people needing more info on this you’re a legend

[@Grouiiiiik]

SR20VET are beasty AF. Drivers like Fujino or Gocha are still using them for some of their competition cars against 1&2Js and VR38s.

[@dreguala3524]

Finally something super cool for Brian he deserves it 🔥🔥

[@JRM_Motorsport]

you can place the dyno outside the grage gate. right behind where it is now then you do not need to make a hole for it in the floor but maybe make a platform just outside to stand on. and then you can get it level with the floor. but is just a quick thought from me.

[@D3Bivs]

Dude I want to hear more of JPs car it sounds so GOOOD!!!!!!!!

[@jacknewberry5720]

It's just gonna work... Famous last words

[@TwerpZ]

Downtime sucks when working on your build. So do what brian did and order everything. But immediately start working on it, you don't wanna be past the return dates if something ordered isnt right

[@jacksonsgarage510]

Need to see more Texas Speed content on this channel 😈

[@levibeatson3247]

Was not expecting to see a neo VVL sticker in the Oakes garage, surely get your hands on a G20 and SR20VE swap it at some point, you won’t regret it, I promise

[@trejoj3458]

Can't wait to hear how it chops

[@thomasnord4954]

It’s fun to see Brian hold it together with such a good outlook. I am currently building an s52 for boost and letting someone who builds engines build the engine is the way to go

Mount some jacks under the ramps so you can jack the front end up.

When you showed the parts w music it’s reminded me of F&F 😭😂

[@IvanGrogan]

happy for you Brian! LS E46’s work so well you’ll have a blast in this car now

[@andricodewet3725]

Yo Jimmy, How about a Quickjack (or something like it) underneath the ramps. THAT way if it's needed to level a car out, you just hook them up to an air hose, and boom! Ramps and car's front go up. Body kits and exhausts live to see another day! Just a thought! Plus I'm pretty sure they are 1/4 to 1/2 the price of a 4 post lift. Which Might be worth it. Like I said, just a thought! Y'all keep doing what Y'all do! We keep loving it! And B, good luck with that build!

[@oscarreynoso6914]

Yeah good choice such a reliable swap that you could beat on without worrying it will break

If you buy the cam bearing tool, cam bearings aren't bad to do. The tool is also pretty cheap.
