REBUILDING MY WRECKED MCLAREN THAT WAS UPSIDE DOWN

[@khanhussain1912]

Mickey is the definition of being underrated, legend !!!

[@andytocher1518]

Mickey is a legend! Hang on to him Slixy!

[@Dadeets]

That Mick geezer is a deffo keeper 🤣 He’s the ‘sleeper’ of mechanics. Great addition to team Slix !

[@idk.skosana]

thats a bar 😂😂

[@allysmith779]

reminds me of Dillon on the Magic Roundabout

[@christopherderycke3603]

Another Micky post. He is gold for this channel. Knows his stuff. Far too humble. Great addition to the team.

[@stephendavies6080]

Mickey was just somebody in the background in the early days,,,, now,,,,,, mickeys the main man😄👍

[@mattgreene01]

As it should be. Mickey is one of the guys I wish absolutely all the best in life. What a man.

[@richardlessemun5004]

Mickey is the equivalent of mats dad. Fair play I wouldn’t even know where to start with that McLaren. Great work Chris!

[@ohhdaesu]

Micky is the man!!!! What an addition to your channel. He’s a keeper 😉

[@TheRonaldbaxter]

I'm mixing up the cars on the different channels. Remembered this one hasn't been in a river!🙂

[@cumbres]

😂 I feel you

[@thelegendaryme]

Lemme guess Mat Armstrong’s Porsche 911 GT3RS?

[@chrisackrill8719]

Well done to you your making a fantastic job of this good on you 😊

[@TheRonaldbaxter]

@@thelegendaryme Yep. At least this one is just swimming in oil! 🫣

[@KingXEEN]

At least this one wasn’t under sea water 😅

[@Jacky5299]

Micky is a top bloke.

[@shrewsnose1]

Mickey is definitely my favorite character unlock on your channel. Keep up the good work chaps I’m loving the show ❤😎

[@martinsherred8302]

Mickey t-shirt drop for the Slix group is needed,where would you be without the Mickey. Great set up on show.👌👍

[@mattgreene01]

Second that. Mickey Mounts!

[@carlosspicyweiner642]

I remember watching my first car KZbin videos years ago where people would put an intake on and maybe a splitter and exhaust. You guys are literally rebuilding entire cars now....crazy 🤪

[@Sensiblehuman1985]

The power of KZbin. Each generation of KZbinrs had a better KZbin video to follow!

[@longbar2344]

u obviously never watched the American guy who did this almost ten years ago. mike rebuilds or summat. reshelled a dodge charger and repaired an r35 to mention a few

[@DK-wj3bf]

​@Sensiblehuman1985 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 I still won't buy any of this cars 😂😂😂😂😂😂after those repairs 😂😂😂😂

[@KingBillionz]

@@DK-wj3bf the emojis don’t make your “jokes” any funnier. Do you even watch this channel?

[@gavingg4761]

You mean daddy mat started something, and every man and their dog jumped on it 😂😂😂

[@SD-oi9gr]

The scale of KZbin rebuilds especially British rebuilds is insane. Just a couple of years ago it was mainly putting a new exhaust on or new shocks, now it’s full on rebuilds from the tub onwards and even full engine rebuilds.

[@mubarakpatel4469]

Well done Micky and Chris …..perfect match up … Love to see Micky driving the beast when it’s ready …👌👍👍👍👍👍

[@iainrutherford184]

Mickey is worth his weight in symmetry! Great skills guys 🧡

[@markblunsum6164]

It never ceases to amaze me how complicated new engines are. Back in the day, I rebuilt a mark 3 escort engine and that was hard enough! Will keep watching to see how this build pan’s out! You and Micky are a great team!

[@ValuedComment]

You and Mickey = dream team. Keep the videos coming, guys!

[@stephenthomas729]

Looks like you’re well on the way to 300k by Christmas well done Chris and Mickey this channel has become a must watch.

[@amazemeid]

I'm always amazed at how Chris and the team can put everything back together completely. What is their secret to organize/log, dismantling, and assembling everything again? and not to mention finding what's missing. especially whenever he said "Never done this before"

[@jonny-Arborist]

Mickey the legend! Every man Jack needs a contactable Mickey within their bandwidth. Facts!

[@jasonnerves833]

Ye he’s a gd guy u can tell he not there for the fame

[@ChrisLeavers]

Hair is starting to come along nicely 😊

[@ajw1467]

Yep very elton john may be eye sight will go next 😂😂😂

[@BiglumpADV]

All that oil is likely from the car being up side down. It could easily leak from the cam cover gasket into the spark plug recesses. And also being inverted, leak down through the open valves into the cylinders, and also down through the inlets into the turbos. Hopefully there's nothing wrong and just a good clean up needed.

[@korpharm]

Yes I agree with this. The fact that it’s been upside down means it will have oil in unusual places!

[@villano31]

I came to comment the same thing😂

[@AFK365]

The car was upside down in one of the photo's theres going to be oil in every orifice including the plugs good job man keep it up.

[@raimaksofficial]

Mickey is now part of the crew and keep it up for posting daily.

[@PeterGoodman-nq7zy]

Fascinating to watch you take on some of the most challenging projects with such confidence and ease. I love what you doing and am very curious as to how you solve the challenges, can't wait to see you do your magic on this car.

[@Cawdordon]

Great strip down, great teamwork. Love watching your channel. Mickey is a legend

[@JamesTenniswood]

Great job, shout out to the camera man. Under recognised 😊

[@Wallygoose]

I struggle to find a channel I can watch and watch but Chris the content is fantastic! Looking forward to this build and watching the channel grow mate!

[@Madmo1012]

Another awesome project Chris, loving your videos mate i get hooked and cant wait to see the finished product. Micky is a legend keep him in your vids. Looking forward to the next stage of this Mclaren build

[@bulldog333]

Teamwork makes the dream work. Well done chaps love this !

[@grantlingley1385]

Really loving this series! Early days but really excited for you and Mackey on this one!

[@johnbaldock6353]

Massive Respect to You and Mickey!!👏

[@paultossell1455]

Is mickey now a permanent employee of the slix crew ( hope so )

[@jordonknight1571]

Yeah hopefully dude mick sick

[@djdonnychristian]

He seems like a great guy

[@twigwonderkid]

Excellent- really enjoyable video. Great camera work, nice cutting between edits, and few time lapse. Thanks my man. Looking forward to next . Keep up good work

[@Luigifazz]

This channel is underrated, it has great contents and builds. Keep pushing!!

[@karlthornton1541]

Quickly become my favourite KZbin channel, keep up the great work mate 👍🏻

[@andyshipman8268]

Great content with this one you and mickey doing a great job it's going to be a tuff one good luck moving forward 😎😎😎

[@christopherhoward3423]

Love the challenge build on the McLaren and the hair transplant is looking good too 👍👍💯

[@jonathanjordan1180]

The MickyLaren is looking sweet as great a build !

[@nyashamachaya182]

I hope when the car is done it goes to Mickey. He is a proper legend! Hang on to him Slix!

[@wowfreaker]

I hope not.

[@johnelbro127]

I think this is so brave to take on this car. Well done guys, looking forward to more. 👍👍👍👍

[@Crypto_G85]

Mick is to Chris as Tony is to Mat great work keep it up

[@df9834]

Mickeys the man! Legend, Hes a great addition to the channel Chris 👌👌 Hope you do many more projects with him 👍👍

[@scottnorman4285]

Don't think the engine is as bad as it appears mate. Don't forget it spent sometime on its roof so oil will have moved and sat in places it shouldn't of. Keep up the great work and content, it's much appreciated

[@cseivard]

Very well photographed & edited!

[@KrystekkCF]

4:23 "get my chopper out" 😂😂😂

[@mrpatoche100]

Mickey ...what a legend well spoken individual great Addition to the team

[@richiekaye1103]

Really enjoyed watching this ,I'm in hospital after surgery and it's 2am I'm eating a piece of toast after starving for 14 hours watching these legends..Mikey you are a Geeza we love you on the channel..Skilled and knowledgeable and reins Chris in if need be 👑

[@charlie1832]

Have a speedy recovery

[@denisfitzgerald3474]

That motor needs some serious work, glad to see your doing the job right! Keep up the great content, fast becoming my favourite channel 👍

[@verhulstoliviert]

I don't get why Chris hasn't got more subscribers... far better content than most in this niche, for me as engaging and interesting as matt... great cars and challenging builds, good vid frequency...

[@thatdaftscottishcarguy]

More engaging? 🤣 The guy literally hasn't got a clue! Riding Mats coat tails then thought he could go own him own resulting in him him hiring a homeless person and making Chris look even more out of his depth!

[@johnharrison9317]

You two are great together. Great progress. Looking forward to the next one

[@federicojpp]

Whatever you do to that engine, remeber that adding the slightest of power will require new piston rods. Ask tavarish how he learned that, when he blew out the motor of his 675 after fully rebuilt it. The rest of the engine was ok as far as I remember but the rods were the weak link. Take that into consideration to avoid any headaches

[@WPD77]

Was going to post the same

[@chris.peters]

Very good video production i must say. Well done 👏

[@Key-j5o]

Great vid, hats off for attempting such a build.

[@Poland-t1s]

If you’re there, change the piston rods because they bend it’s gonna destroy the engine if you’re there already

[@ACE_888]

This is one hell of a rebuild! Good luck

[@PDSmith89]

Mickey is such a good geezer! Top work as always Chris!

[@eugbrat]

Come on Chris! Nearly 300k 🎉❤

Plenty for them both and more. The more content creators like this the better for all of us.

[@timhaywood6604]

😂😂😂😂😂 hardly 😂😂

[@ultra1obscene]

@@timhaywood6604 much prefer this content to be honest, less waffle more build.

[@connorboyle4113]

Unreal what a video Chris yous two make a great pair👌🏼 but love Ethan too all true guys keep up the good content✔️

[@garycrofts1421]

Oil on the OUTSIDE of the spark plug socket can only be from leaking seals in the spark plug tubes....pull the plugs and oil runs into the cylinder....calm down Chris....it's not so bad.

[@MFFMPN]

The car was upside down remember!!

[@kierongibson4107]

Never mind the McLaren your hairs coming along nicely,

[@AlbertoCarvallo-g3p]

They know. What they doing. Good job guys!!

[@kings3803]

If you are getting ricky to rebuild that engine with new rods you can add so much more power. This is going to be a mental car. Love it.

[@StevenMurray-mt7om]

OMG Chris… I having nightmares about the rebuild of this motor and I’m just watching it😂 Mickys some guy… best of luck Chris. Look forward to the next video.🙈🚀

[@timk1980]

28:13 haha that feeling is awesome when summut just fits! 👌

Well done Chris, keep persevering!

Can’t wait till this car is finished!

[@martincoutts6747]

Great job, well done lads.

[@evilbrown69]

I suppose oil every where is better than water like mats gt3rs 😬 Great rebuild and micky is a legend!!!

[@kenreall723]

300k subscribers 🎉🎉🎉 before Christmas 🎄 Chris... Congratulations 🎉 🥳 🎊

[@schafer240]

The excess of oil in the turbos and top end would be from the car being upside down. I'd still rebuild the turbos and do new Valvecover gaskets while it's out and easy to access.

[@liamegan4303]

Hello from Ireland again, Chris. Jesus, just watching you at Work, is Crazy. There's a massive amount of Work, to be done, new shell 🐚, lol. What if that engine is bad? I pray it works out. Big Balls, Chris lol. 😅😅😅🙏🙏👌👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@johndyer3743]

You guys make a good team keep it up Chris

[@davidswift4474]

Hair is coming along nicely!

[@peterouillard8510]

Hi Chris, fair play for taking this on for a start, quite the project, the oil on the plugs is most likely from the cam cover gasket plug hole seals leaking oil, its common gor that type of set up, the plug hole just fills up with oil, so when you were taking the plugs out the oil in the plug hole goes into the cylinder, the oil in the intake system is another matter tho 😳 wow that a lot of oil, knackered turbo's it think, good luck mate..!

[@jackdaily3383]

Wouldn't you think with the car upside down then being righted the oil went into all those places? Down through the valves and exhaust.

[@balanceOneTwo]

such a nice ideea of makeing the AMG GT decor piece, keep up the good work!

[@BazDeeWren]

Micky, the Legend in the making 😊.

[@StevenRobbert]

The plugs look fine the oil is coming from the valve cover leaking due to maintenance neglect

[@eQuASiANXane]

7:41 doesnt it look like that engine mount bolt shifted so much it hit the carbon tub? or is just in the bulkhead/liner

[@MrAdy993]

I remember Freddy doing the same with the turbos on his 675LT, that ended beautifully with a better engine👀🤙😂

[@davidatkinson7234]

great work on the McLaren fellas, Mickey is a superstar! - you're not too shaby either Chris!

[@matthewhodgson9762]

Been waiting all week for this

[@1982chrisrandall]

@chris I hope you keep Micky a permanent fixture for all your future videos...he's a legend and you two seem to work really well together

[@TylerOConnell]

What a banger of a video can't wait till next one

[@pgtips1199]

Oil could be just from the valve cover gasket. When you remove the plugs the oil will just run down to the plug threads and cylinder. Looking the plug electrods it seems fine. Great channel and cracking team :)

[@asfittraining]

Wow amazing progress this video😎

[@lukeseabourne319]

Fair play taking this build on,at the moment it looks like your stripping it for parts 😮

[@drax4901]

[@BLX187]

massive repair job on this one.

[@Fewz_nl]

Great video's, awesome content. I love that we dont have to watch 267 parts to see some repairs. Keep at it!
