Honestly watching you push through some of the challenges you come across mostly by yourself, has been huge "better help" moments for me. You are an awesome individual Jared and know that there are 100s of thousands of people rooting for each and every win. Tri Hard, Win Big!!!

[@micksed4875]

Awesome content. Thanks for promoting mental health, Jared. A tough-as-woodpecker-lips buddy of mine lost the fight a week ago. That’s 2 friends in 3 months…too many kids without dads. Take care of yourself, fellas.

[@kerrylewis2581]

Sorry about your friends and their families. 😥

[@hankborecki1483]

Thank you for the Better Health add and speaking up about mental illness. You're doing great work!

[@HailinBlue]

I never thought I'd say this, but TryHard is giving Independence Chevelle a run for its money in the coolness, awesomeness, and love'n-it departments! Very cool build, fella!

[@mattbrown5511]

"Tri-Hard" is an awesome project and you are the man to get it done Jared.

[@lordleonusa]

I would suggest you color code the 3 different wiring harnesses for each engine install. Say blue, red and green, perhaps using colored zip ties?

[@robertkempton3455]

good call, a couple of color coded zip ties or couple wraps of colorful electrical tape would be simple and effective!

[@jimscarlett]

It's starting to really look like a car! I love that you always show HOW you're doing things, and explain why, rather than going "ooooh look shiny table of parts" and the *poof* they're magically installed in no time! Nothing ever goes quite according to plan, and I always feel like I learn something. Also, thank you for speaking up for mental health. You're killin' it with this project!

[@norcoman876]

YOU'RE KILLIN IT DUDE! I just knew this channel was going to be good from the get go and am enjoying it all thoroughly. Definitely top inspirational automotive life content. Thanks for all your hard work!

[@KingKeson]

The finished project is going to be insane! If anyone can get this done it’s Jared I always look forward to these episodes! Jared your knowledge and perseverance never ceases to amaze me! Keep up the awesome work!!!

[@hawkhawkins5374]

I’m loving this build.

[@FrankySilverFace]

Dude this is a heck of a project for one mechanic. It's amazing and unique on YT as far as I know. Don't let it wear you down.

[@ClassicStreetIron]

Glad I could help name this three part bundle of fun.

[@seriousrampage]

Love this project. By the way, the 3 headed dog is pronounced like sir-buh-russ 😉

[@tripprogers4814]

I was going to mention that a while back, Cerberus was a bands name from the northwest.. they sucked. (lol)

[@tripprogers4814]

I was going to mention that a while back, Cerberus was a bands name from the northwest.. they sucked. (lol)

[@dennisbirtcher4522]

Wish I'd known about copper/nickel fuel lines a few years ago when when I re-plumbed my Delta 88. The Vaporguard is doing just fine; most of it is inside the frame rail, so there's little chance of damage, and this is very much not a track car, but I could have done better and had hard lines! But now I know if I ever have to redo it. Loving this little bit of insanity, and you've sold me on the name Tri Hard.

[@VincentParisien]

You are so CORRECT, when we built our cars, whenever I got stuck on something, I switched to a simpler task telling myself: "That smaller less important task would have to get done later anyways, let's cross it off the list" That was instrumental in getting the projects to completion. Keep moving on.

[@rickhurt7007]

That looks really good and pretty solid. Very impressive with the POS you started with.

[@bordercollieinachallenger3933]

Good attitude Jared. I always lean on your episodes to keep up a positive attitude and continuous motivation.

[@clintparkison9844]

You can have two full engine giveaways after you get done! Whoever wins gets to bring their car or truck to you and have you show them how to drop in the motor!

[@AutotechSteve]

Keep this car going I’m excited to see the finished car!!

[@chriholt]

I'm loving this series Jared!

[@802Garage]

Possibly my fav build series from you so far and I'm not even a big muscle fan. Awesome madness!

[@nicholasdaly7355]

Great video more progress cant wait for the new diff

[@FreedomRock44]

Love the blue on the Underbody!!!

[@arjenwennekes]

Love these vids! Oldskool wrenching. Fun to Look at and Education at the same time. I watch these with my 8y old son. Together we wrench on our cars and your vids put us in the Right Mood! Thanx!👍🏻

[@Last_Responder]

Another great video, love the new name, Cerebus Trihard. Best part is that we see that there are issues, that you work through them and that no build is perfect ❤ keep going, big cheerleader here! Go Jared Go!!

[@GrandDungeonDad]

This is becoming a less questionable choice with each part going in :-) loving the ressurection. This thing will be with you for a long time man.

[@TheQuestionableGarage]

I hope so!

[@MartinodePueblo]

Love it, Jared. Super cool 3 engine car project and really looking forward to the finished product(s)

[@GregBird]

My first car was a 1971 Dodge Dart Sport. I want another. ..but man, they are hard to find in ok shape. I am loving this build x 3.

[@chickenbob7567]

I LOVE this series!

[@mattcornett2028]

You motivated me to take on replacing the cam and lifters in my RAM yes the dreaded Hemi tick. Did it all in my driveway. Made some mistakes and learned from them. Saved myself a couple grand and gave myself some confidence.

[@michaelmahoney8887]

One step closer! 👍🏻😁 Always has gas! 🤣

[@xKrispyx]

This whole series has been great so far! Honestly one of my favourite builds you’ve done! I can’t wait for the next, and next, iteration of this car. Such a cool idea!

[@TazR6]

Hylomar. Wow. Not heard that name for years. It took me straight back to when I was a kid, and my Dad worked at Rolls Royce engine design on Nightingale Road in Derby. He used to bring some home with him for his own projects. I have goose pimples thinking about it. Don't you just love sudden bursts of nostalgia!?

[@harrysgarage1440]

Great idea! I’m hooked I’ll be watching the progress. When your done it would be fun to drive to body shops and ask the owner if it’s worth saving and point to it from a distance.

[@M.Boatwright_aka_Cochese]

Love the project, i hate hitting roadblocks too but just think of it as free time to finish something else while you wait on parts.

[@MJTAUTOMOTIVE]

Hey Jarrod, The best thing to use on cork gaskets is Stag Jointing paste. I have been using it for over 35 years on Gas Tanks and Pan Gaskets Etc and have never had a come back due to leak. Love the Videos and Congrats on Hitting 400000 Thousand Subs. You are the hardest working Guy out there. Cheers.

[@1mandanceparty]

Hey Jared, I’m so happy you decided to talk about mental health and toxic masculinity. I’m also turning 40 and my life is nowhere near where I want it to be, or where I feel it should be. I’m so passionate about cars that I’m trying to get into the field, actually got a job as service manager at a classic car restoration shop, but it’s extremely stressful because I was brought in to help fix problems. Anyway, I’m trying so hard, but I need help in basically every aspect of my life right now. I know I’m capable, but I’m suffering at the moment. Anyway, watching your videos and your sweet pups helps. Oh, more puppy content please Keep kicking ass 🫡

[@davidbennett9359]

Derek would drive several hundred miles home in that 'parts' car!!! Good show Jared, loving it!!

[@Psychelode]

Thank you Jared for the content, and the advice. I am fixing my grandfather's car (he's no longer with us), and after replacing all of the suspension, hubs, brakes, today there is a strange sound from the left side. If that's not enough, the sparkplugs are black and wet (either an issue with the distributor, but i'm thinking a carb issue, it has too much fuel), and the brakes do not hold pressure. BUT, i drove it today for the first time since 2008, and i'm counting that as a win. I'll take that small win (drove it for less than a mile).

[@benjaminallen4678]

Awesome seeing a parts car not get crushed but being used to save another car. Keep grinding brother!

[@MarchHare59]

I like Tri-Hard for the car name and the parts car is perfect. Lots of body and interior parts but you might have to cut a hole in the hood and add some sort of intake scoop or bulge to fit it over that engine. I have no problem if you cut the parts car into scrap, it's pretty much a gone-goose, but I do like the paint trim pattern on the sides and back. (Tri-Hard has cooler taillights though) And I agree the bigger the radiator the better because those engines are going to be pushed into the red zone in competition. Best of luck and loved the episode!

[@SixSixthSix]

Oh man, here i am wanting to convert a drive by wire to a cable 😅. Been enjoying every second of this series! You brave man!

[@kerrylewis2581]

Tri-Hard is the perfect name for this questionable garage project.

[@michaelwiles4545]

It takes a real man to ask for help for real. Trust me. I had to ask for help back in May, from my family.

[@JCWren]

18:00 I cut up a couple Pig Mats and used spray adhesive to stick it to the tank. Assuming I ever get an engine back in this '71 Dart, it should work fine :)

[@dirtrider3526]

Love this build. Every time I watch one of ur videos I remember why I love this channel so much. Thank u for taking us with u on ur adventures. Exp this one!

[@sadiejustin]

I absolutely love this car, and I'm no Duster fan boy! I so desperately hope you succeed. I wish I was in Ga so I could help you.

[@amunarjoh]

Keep pushing on! Restoring the car of your life, or restoring the sanity of your life. You have some steps sideways, even an occasional step back. But life goes on, it does not stop by the setbacks. Provide for the future. Accept life.❤

[@tyronnhamilton254]

Great show. Glad to see you shining a light on self-care..

[@hawkeye454]

Jared you're awesome man!

[@anmous69]

This is definitely nuts to do. I'm stoked for this build brother.

[@JRs-Garage]

This is an exciting project keep up the hard work! Thanks for taking us along for the wild ride!

[@JRs-Garage]

Ps: congratulations on 400,000 subs Jared!

[@finaltouchautodetailingllc]

It's coming along so well! Congratulations on the progress. Love the videos, thanks for making them

[@genedunn9283]

“Never have I ever”…seen a torque wrench used on a fuel tank. Wow! Sweet build!!

[@mr_mongo7228]

I definitely love the old Crustet you have picked a great platform to run with!

[@802Garage]

I'm a huge fan of hard lines as well. Copper nickel is the way. Aluminum can work for fuel too. It's honestly cheaper than running AN lines or even most rubber fuel line at this point and it has so many advantages. Only cheaper option is probably nylon lines, but they really are a bit of a pain to work with.

[@briandeaton3550]

This is a great series of videos. The problem solving is a lot of fun to watch.

[@2coolwheels139]

This is going to be an EPIC series!

[@armandopatane5343]

Looking amazing = let’s go brother

[@rexkean]

👁👁 Love this car! I think the Try Hard, (2, and Vengeance), is perfect!

[@christopherdavis8442]

I'm trying to get off to get down to an event. Luckily the heat broke today. Any luck on the AC front? And help for a man is hard to ask for. It's a flaw of mine. I've battled alot on my own when I didn't need to. Great sponsor foe the episode and great message.

[@TheQuestionableGarage]

In the works!

[@christopherdavis8442]

Nice!

[@christopherdavis8442]

What did you end up getting?

[@TheQuestionableGarage]

Still working it out, schedules on both sides have been tricky to line up

[@christopherdavis8442]

I completely understand that. Time is the trickiest thing to master. It's infinite but there's never enough. Hope to see ya at one of the holley events.

[@jamesallison2644]

Luv your work dude... it doesn’t have to pretty, doesn’t need to be anything other than you need it be, just doing it, getting it done... you’ve got a great soul Jared, keep it coming mate 👍 Tri-Hard 😎🤘

[@Ian-of9oi]

That blue looks nice. If it was a bit lighter you could call it Petty blue.

[@terrallputnam7979]

Jared, You remind me of JFK's Speech about landing on the Moon. We are not doing this because it's easy, but because it's hard. You are doing what most people would call impossible! You are the Man!

[@Bawkr]

Title Response: I know the feeling. Poked a hole in 2 brand new brake seals (front, back) & swelled one up as well making it useless to me for now. Lol love the build Chevy it up!

[@xr8rick]

I’m loving this project.

[@minidoido1]

Great project. Can't wait to see it done.

[@greggsvintageworkshop8974]

What a GREAT episode Jarod! It is looking SO GOOD! Amazing work sir. Can't wait for the next episode.

[@mikekozi-lester3887]

Hi Jared nice video 📹 and workmanship the car is coming along really well !!! 😀 I like the yellow one make that a dirt squirt rider !!!! 💛 😮😊tub it to go on the dirt special sizer man maybe make you the 1 place tires with special risers

[@dougkinney4521]

Keep on trucking. love these video

[@harrysatin5110]

Big props to Jared, go get em!! Can’t wait to see the Ford guys face, LS/GM guys shock themselves 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@jasonjones3]

Your killing it bro, Hope to see you at Bristol in a week!

[@m.c.1994]

Hey Jared! 👋🏻😊 I'm not at all a car guy, but I love your videos and your content. I like seeing your level of passion and I think this is why I enjoy your KZbin channel 😊

[@TheQuestionableGarage]

Thanks for stopping by! Don’t ever be afraid to pick up a wrench and turn it on something! Small engines, a 3d printer anything!

[@marcuscoquer5958]

I will always watch ads to do with help for mental health. Even if they are only relevant to a different continent... Nice one for helping spread awareness Jarod.

[@smarternu]

A SINGLE CPU can run all three engines. Inputs for CPU's...o2, TPS, Crank, Cam, oil pres, temp, output Injector pulse, voltage to heat o2, TPS if fly by wire. You may need a fuel pressure regulator depending on the pressure each engine wants, but they will be close. Then make custom wire harness. I bet a single modern Holley unit would work!!!

[@jamesmisener3006]

What a street fighter this is going to be. I voted Ceribus a while back. I like Try Hard 1 -2 - 3 a lot. I'll throw this out. Ready Set Go. Or 3 times the Charm. Enough already. Cheers 🇨🇦

[@jamesmisener3006]

Oh simply 123

[@MichaelSmith-wb1es]

That’s great advice. I usually order parts and wait but there are tons of other things I could be doing.

[@TheQuestionableGarage]

It’s really hard not to get discouraged. Even more so when that other part of the project runs into a problem too! But you found it earlier so you can get done earlier

[@dougcardwell7496]

If the tail lights on the parts Duster don’t have any broken tabs I would be interested in buying them from you.

[@paulcochran1721]

People are going to argue whether Tri Hard is a Christmas car or not... Are you going to paint the inside of the hood and deck lid? I think it would "tie the room together!" Great episode!

[@bigfred2657]

I can't wait to see it run

[@organiccold]

Dam Jared, you doing a hell of a job here. Can't wait to see this beast running. You kiling it :)

[@cmcb7230]

Love this, but this is a very ambitious build. Best of luck to you my friend.

[@MarchHare59]

The rear quarter-panels are remarkably intact on the parts Duster, and the front fenders are also not too rusty to be used whole or in part on Tri-Hard. Finding an early 70s Mopar with body parts that aren't rusted out is gold. Considering how intact the outer panels are and how totally rusted out the floor, trunk, gas tank and frame are, it's pretty obvious to me that this car was sitting outside and neglected for a long, LONG time. So odds are the engine is bad, the transmission is bad or both are bad. Perfect parts car.

[@cmkelly1965]

"Pinion Preload" was my nickname in high school.

[@saiyoice]

Me and my dad had an old 80's f350 dropped off at the house to pull the engine for a swap. thought we were getting a stock 351 Windsor because everything appeared stock. until we pulled the heads and it had flat top pistons with valve reliefs and it took both of us to compress the springs to get the retainers out, crank had plugs from being balanced when we inspected it, its been a trip.

[@DEADPEDAL]

400K subs! Well done!

[@joshph2716]

that is the most accurate description I have ever heard for Indian head gasket sealer

[@joshph2716]

Gotta love the rebranding of it too

[@Autoauctionrehabs]

I applaud you sir! I hear you regarding finances and projects! LOL. On that note I am ordering a shirt or two to help a little bit on the Tri Hard project.

[@goldduster318]

I agree on the hard lines. Having a parker roloflare 37 degree tool would mean that you can just make any hard line an AN flare and use the tube ferrules that you can buy basically anywhere like summit. Cuts way down on the connections you have on the car and makes plumbing way easy.

[@Noslime]

You should save all of the sheet metal that you can and put it on the blue car. You can leave the beige part. It will look even worse but then you’ll have a whole car.

[@chassegallerie2910]

Yeah, about that yellow Duster... At first, before I was like why he's gonna destroy that. Then you've shown us why. And yeah. Go ahead. You have a front fender that is incomplete of it due to the rust, so MAYBE replace that fender with the yellow front fender if it's in better shape? Also, hope you didn't got into too much troubles with Holley for cutting their stuff up. I mean, you choose their parts 'cuz they're the best for the project, but at the same time it's a project that nobody ever did before, so you needed to adjust them a little bit.

[@Metered_Air]

Another great episode! You seem to be budgeting time well and knowing when to say when. You’re really going to pull this off. I can’t wait to watch you accomplish all of this. And happy 40th!

[@genegene447]

I love how the best car community youtubers world wide talk about mental health issues Theres some legends out there giving some faith in humanity

[@theelfkilla]

Call the car " Try Hard" but where the Duster sticker would be, make Cerberus sticker with the Duster Font and make a little cartoon character of a Cerberus in that 70's style, like the tornado or the road runner / coyote, next to it.

[@Avi8tor857]

Should do a Volvo electric power steering pump and find an idler for the 3 engines. Will make it easier for the swapping as you can leave power steering intact. Not sure it is possible but if you combine that with a hydraboost brake setup you will not have to worry about vacuum with that built engine.

[@smartin2174]

Great episode and I really hope it all works as intended! It is amazing, how much work you put into this!

[@shawnstanford264]

It would have been cool to get an overhead shot of you using that precision torque wrench so we could see what you saw.

[@beaker2000]

Try Hard and the sequels are perfect names!

[@henrymatthews9365]

Man cant wait till the first burnout

[@plageran]

Jared running the "I want", do i need it? No.... but I want XD. do what you need to dude XD
