This was a cool vid. I was smiling when he got to 110 💪🏻

[@RegularGuyGarage]

Yea he was bummed when he couldn’t get it there other day. I’m glad he got it

[@garymatthys3605]

@@RegularGuyGarage He didn't know he had it in him. Once you get used to the effort necessary, it becomes easier. Cool vid with your kid!

[@bigd9848]

I remember when he did his first engine..Now he is learning and will be doing this by himself on the next one.Great job Junior ✊

[@RegularGuyGarage]

Thanks brother ✊

[@DetroitStickUp]

I was happy to see him get the 110 ft lbs and watch his confidence grow. Good work.

[@RegularGuyGarage]

That was my favorite part too👍

[@richardbyrne4659]

Love the fact he is interested and you are letting him learn by hands on! So many kids don't have any interest in mechanical things.

[@RegularGuyGarage]

He’s fascinated with engineering, mechanics, etc.

[@GearHead704]

This is going to be a great series especially when he can look back one day on these times.

[@MrMach1]

Good job young man! Always good to have a good teacher. Ha ha ole man maybe stronger now but in time things change.

[@RegularGuyGarage]

Oh yea. It’s only a matter of time 😆

[@lochnessfox3441]

As long as you’re having fun little buddy! Good luck and learn all your dad can teach you. He’s a very smart guy!

[@markwatt3504]

It's a dream of mine to build and engine with my son and do a time laps video on the whole build. I can't wait for the next segment

[@RegularGuyGarage]

Hope you get to do it one day

[@PaulDaFox]

Loved the video and that your building it with your boy! He was determined to crack the torque wrench and did get a few in so that's a start. Look forward to the continuation...💪🏁

[@RegularGuyGarage]

Thanks Paul! He’s a determined kid

[@PaulDaFox]

@@RegularGuyGarage For sure he's going to get it; he just needs a little bit more body weight to counter balance himself. Have a great day brother! 💪🏁

[@frank3stangs]

Awesome video!!

[@RegularGuyGarage]

Thanks Frank!

[@bluecollarfox916]

Awesome to see a father and son project. He just learned how to use his back to pull a ratchet. haha. Wait till you show him how to hook 2 wrench’s together for more leverage haha.

[@RegularGuyGarage]

That truck is going to blow his mind 😂

[@bluecollarfox916]

@@RegularGuyGarage haha I bet. Can’t wait to see what cam and stuff you put in it. Just did my Anderson N91 cam. Woah. It’s faster. Haha

[@johndoe-zb8bm]

Nice video content Dan,your son seems like he's got some interest in this hobby. That's awesome!👈💯

[@RegularGuyGarage]

Thanks man!! he is more passionate about it than me at times 😆

[@lochnessfox3441]

I really wish I had a machine shop close by to do engine building. I live in rural north East Tennessee the closest shop is an hour and a half away from me. And by the way this is Robert Kretz! I’ve changed my name on KZbin. Ttys

[@RegularGuyGarage]

We have a whole bunch but I think I finally found the one I’m going to keep using! This guy was honest and quick! And I like the new name!

[@lochnessfox3441]

@@RegularGuyGarage yeah I heard the lochness name on another channel and said she has came back from the deep water. Lol. But it’s still me. Keep that young man learning. I only had one daughter and she didn’t want anything to do with automotive anything. Ttys buddy.

[@davewwillis]

You sound like me when I’m talking to my son telling him to come on.

[@RegularGuyGarage]

😂😂 when it’s ok for him to speed up he takes his time and then when I want him to takes his time he tries to go as fast as possible.

[@thereissomecoolstuff]

This is great. Please do it step by step in pretty good detail. I have a couple of nieces and nephews watching. This is exciting. Why is his voice deeper than yours?

[@RegularGuyGarage]

Awesome! And he gets nervous on camera and does this deep slow voice lol

[@79beans347]

It won't be long before hes stronger than his ol man, you see how quick he got strong enough to torque those, he gained the strength in just a few minutes and by tomorrow he will be able to do 210 ft lbs at that rate 💪🏻😂 he is a spitting image of you when you were 13 , you have got strong genes

[@RegularGuyGarage]

😆😂 I know right. He figured out how to use his body as leverage on his own. Kids smarter than I ever was lol

[@79beans347]

🤣😂🤣 yeah he caught on fast , he's gonna be hooked after he gets to see his first build come alive because that feeling never gets old, I still get excited to hear it fire up for the first time
