YESSSSS!!! There are three Star Wars movies, there have always been three Star Wars movies (since 1983) and there will never be more than three Star Wars movies. Matt is MY kind of Star Wars fan. The TRUE kind.

[@benhart16]

I came here to say exactly this!

[@edwinschlee8374]

That's all there will ever be is 3 Star Wars movies!

[@josiatokirina1788]

I have to disagree, there are 9 Star Wars Movies and I loved them all! It's all personal subjective taste, and some of us have better tastes!

[@phillipsmith5013]

As a machinist, I'll let you know that you can unscrew the tip on your dial indicator and buy a thinner longer tip. I have one on mine for rind and pinion settings up.

[@SomebodysNephew]

That's good advice right there.

[@CCRAF-YT]

LT's skills equal more smiles per mile ! Wow that was truly fun to watch

[@TheAverageDutchman]

the problem you're talking about with your dial indicator is a well known problem for machinists and engineers called the cosine error. However, you can be 10 degrees off "dead on" straight and the measurement error will be 1.5% which is not that terrible if you're "just" measuring diff backlash. If you really want to be very precise about it you can calculate a compensation factor en correct for it. Personally for your application, I wouldn't bother.

[@NorrisAnderson-hn4xn]

Matt, ever since you and Tom Tom posted a video on 6/18/2023 about driving the Spud truck home , I've been anxiously waiting for this day when you get it running with the newly rebuilt supercharged engine. Congratulations for achieving this fun and fine stage of the project t! It's good to see Ed up snd around, supervising the repair of the front axle of the MORRvair.

[@c63amgblack]

Matt is right about the angle of the dial indicator introducing cosine error in the reading.........but its a tiny amount (with small angles) and infinitely more accurate than not measuring at all lol. He is hilarious, never change matt

[@calholli]

Depends on how precise of a measurement you are making.. It can be orders of magnitude off if you're really getting precise.

[@duramaxdad]

I’d argue Matt’s measuring device is dialed to the 11’s. He said 5 to 10 and got an 11. Within 10% of spec. That exceeds even Matt’s intentions.

[@nealesmith1873]

You can also get parallax error. Yeah, dial gauges just suck…lol.

[@esromjayasinghe8510]

I'm missing Lizzy : (

[@davidn.331]

True on the cosine error. But you have to worry too much until you get to 45+ degrees with a .707 to 1 error. In otherwords if your true limit is .010 you reading at 45 limit is .007

[@grumpymunchkin2959]

I love watching Matt battle against precision and efficiency.

[@shcaskey]

@grumpymunchkin2959 He seems to lose frequently.😁

[@sjaak2307]

The Morrvair never seemed to lack power in my view. Keep it like it is and it will live longer.

[@Jamisons_World]

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="684">11:24</a> - “I think you got it clean” from Ed gave me such a huge grin 🎉 What a sweetheart

[@chadp6307]

As much as I like the idea of the Morrvair getting a huge upgrade to the engine, I lean towards the idea of "If it ain't broke, don't fix it". No, the Morrvair doesn't need morr power (right now), if anything, it just needs a couple morr winches. It is healthy and reliable currently, and already sounds like a performance vehicle. The Morrvair is probably the best all-rounder you have in the fleet. Save the engine upgrade for if/when the Morrvair is hurt and requires morr than superficial engine repairs. The 6x6 sounds amazing, and with a bit of exhaust work to tame those wild decibels, she'll turn heads wherever she goes.

[@chad6849]

Agreed

[@KoRnNut]

Yea I couldnt agree morr. I would imagine sand not being too kind to turbos or superchargers. As Cleetus has recently shown.

[@UnitedServices9]

​@@KoRnNutHello thank you for considering our track renting service can you please tell me a bit more about your needs what type of truck are you looking for , how long did you need it for , and what will you be using it (e.g moving hauling equipment etc. )?

[@JustlilTwisted]

Agree... never seen the morrvair in a situation where you were like darn wish it had more power. it's always done everything you have needed it to.

[@unconventionallifestyle4827]

More power, will require increased cooling, and axel upgrades, that do not randomly pop. Keeping the balance, with center of gravity as low as possible, because travel is at extreme angles on many recoveries.

[@taylormade710]

Watching the young gen work on the maintenance for the morvar should give Matt comfort knowing that he’s not always going to need to be there to solve every issue that comes along

[@backroadsrebel6656]

I grew up watching the show home improvement, so I'm all about more power. The morvair is plenty capable as it sits, but I have lingering flashbacks of when y'all left it overnight in the creek bed. More power always helps.

[@marcuscoquer5958]

Smooth controllable power is what the Morrvair needs, and it isn’t lacking at the moment. Increasing usable rpm might help. From the complaints I have heard an overdrive might be a thing.

[@bobbyrash9503]

Had been trying to save for a matts rope and shackles. but never could get enough set aside. Went ahead and bought the canvas jacket, very satisfied with the jacket hopefully I'll get the yellow and black pole flags a couple decals. Hope you get some long sleeve shirts. I've enjoyed watching you young ones learning the business. The reruns don't bother me, always see something I missed. Thank all of you. Happy Holidays.

[@mrdrummer2564]

The Morrvair is perfectly capable right now. I don't think adding more power is a good idea, because, as you found out with the wrecker, you'll break everything else. Driveshaft, axles, etc. Don't touch the workhorse when it doesn't need it! Morrvair 2.0 with upgraades... now there's an idea!

[@johnbeer4963]

The only thing louder than that truck is Kaitlyn's joyful laughter at that truck and that means that everything is right with the world

LT was a great choice to build the engine. Matt knows when to call in someone who works with precision, even though Matt’s way works too. I thought LT would be equally fastidious about a proper break in, but thankfully he knows the correct technique. Congratulations on this milestone! That’s a powerful machine you got there!

[@photoboy1986]

I fell in love with The Spud Truck the day you first got it! It's been an interesting journey with it... Sometimes thinking you were ruining it, sometimes thinking you were doing something magical. As it nears completion, the magic shows through more and more. Love it!

[@UncleBildo]

I think Rhett hit the nail on the head regarding more power. Busted axles, U-joints etc. Though I guess you could break things, beef them up, break 'em again, and then beef 'em up more until you had it solid. I think more power would end up being a detrimental addition. Besides breaking stuff, you would run out of fuel more often. Besides, it sounds like a band of angels playing trumpets as it is! Spud truck is complete badassery.

[@anthonyfreeman5858]

Well, Kaitlin was really enjoying that Test Drive. We can always tell when she’s enjoying something/anything. Grinning from ear to ear.

[@georgevindo]

Kaulin pounding that rag through the axle tubes reminded me of my Dad's brother in law who tried to shoot a stuck rag out of a 38-55. It exploded right under the rear sight and took out a chunk of the barrel about two inches long and a half inch wide. It just barely grazed the side of his head. The bullet and the rag are still stuck in there. Kaulin was much safer. Its great to see Ed and LT, you did a great job on that engine. Thanks for the video.

[@runningscout14]

[@marvincarter870]

Good video and the Moorvair finally gets fixed! The Spud truck is alive and awesome! The look on KateLynn and Matt's face said it all!

[@YusssoM]

Matt knows well he doesn't need more power. He did everything all these years with that junkyard engines, it's enough power.

[@chad6849]

Agreed.

[@Finding_Nematodes]

Agreed. More power means more problems. It’s already snapping axels.

[@ollelindskog4531]

​@@Finding_NematodesUnfortunately you're right, but you always need more power. If it breaks axles, it's not because of too much power...... it's because of weak axles 😂😅

[@poopingandroid]

Matt doesn't necessarily "NEED" more power. He loves MORR power...

[@dljones61]

I feel Tom Tom would approve of LT trying to bring precision back to this shop, its already 11 percent better. Great job guys. I really enjoyed LT being there.

[@CandyBarMoto]

I can't believe I'm saying this. But, NO, the Morvair does NOT NEED more power. It handles everything ever thrown at it. You might want more power. But it doesn't NEED more.

[@IrrationalDiversions]

I'd like to see the motor upgraded to the point where MORR had a similar enough package in each vehicle that they could keep spare parts and a spare motor around at all times. The more standardization on the fleet, the easier it will be to maintain.

[@duramaxdad]

They have an 8.1 in the wrecker. 5.3 in snow trax 4.0 bored over in Banana What’s in the morvair? 5.3?

[@Karl-c2t]

Get LT to build a monster Baja engine... the Morvair doesn't need more power, it's one of the main workhorses of the business... the spud truck engine is great, use his skills to build a freaking awesome baja 1000 motor....

[@aarondavenport9488]

There ya go! The BAJA is the vehicle thats needs the LT treatment! And maybe a pre-runner tune-up too. But those are Corvair engines, so you might end up teaching him a thingy or two on those. What a collab! Let's see a Matt-n-LT Corvair engine build!!!

[@rc2634]

Absolutely!!!!!

[@markm7311]

Matt, as someone else wrote, don't change the Morrvair. Instead make a morevair 2.0 with all upgrades you can jam into it. Another comment was about changing the amount of power in the existing morrvair will cause other things to break, I agree, with a 2.0 version you can beef up all the other components as well as the engine. Love your channel, I look forward to seeing your posts!

[@michaelhamburg9804]

LT and Matt…🤣 two different worlds. Combined a solid 111%!

[@woody4u247]

The MORRvair Has proven itself to be very capable & well balanced... as Fun as putting a Supercharger on it sounds... It might help at the high elevations where air is thin... but for normal use... I'd just go with a Fresh rebuild & some mild upgrades.... Being able to be SMOOTH & controlled with throttle response when crawling up, over, around obsiticals... having Too much raw power... that's what breaks things...you've got alot of leverage with those big tires & lots of grip and Breaking things when you're out in the middle of nowhere, where most vehicles struggle to get to or to rescue you...no thanks.. I'd build a Fresh motor that doesn't have well over 200,000 miles already on it... It definitely still sounds good, but it's tired... Fresh rebuilt naturally aspirated...

[@kolinpauli5862]

I think the Morrvair is due for an engine upgrade. Maybe going all the way to 6.0 is excessive for that size vehicle, but I like Matt's idea of a 4.8L engine with a supercharger, would give it some more range when recovering heavier vehicles.

[@Shilohii65]

“Don’t get less, get MORR,” nice Rhett, very nice.

[@jes2731]

For the Banana, my suggestion is a Naturally Aspirated LS9 6.2L

[@petevise]

....the LS9 is a supercharged 6.2. It was in the c6 ZR1 corvette. The LSA variant which is a lower output S/C 6.2 is from a Camaro ZL1 and CTSV The N/A 6.2 LS would be an LS3.

Don't mess with Morrvair's power barn. She does what she does better than anything else in existence.

I don't think the Morrvair needs more power, but I think it's inevitable it will get it.

You definitively need more power, it doesn't necessarily makes it undrivable, a friend had a supercharged '19 Mustang GT500 and it drives totally stock until he punch it and that thing puts down 900 hp at the wheels, dyno tested. An expert like LT doing that job will get you there with reliability

[@Nairod2]

LT is 11mm more precise than TomTom.

[@mattkaydus7973]

An aluminum 6.0, a good set of heads and a cam is all the morvair needs. Supercharger adds so much complexity and heat that it just wouldn't soot the application.
