[@frankensteincreations4740]

Never a good idea to “hot lash” valves. By the time you start lashing to the time you finish lashing the engine has cooled some. Meaning your first valve lashed will be a different clearance than your last valve lashed. If no choice besides a hot lash do one bank as fast as possible start the engine to get it back up to temp, the same temp. Then lash the other bank.

[@brandonleisure9999]

Thats kinda what i was thinking, i always heard it was better to do them cold or with it running

[@sadcrab_5349]

I play my mixtape the keep them hot

[@frankensteincreations4740]

@@brandonleisure9999 doing it running isn’t recommended either. Also only pertains to hydraulic cams not solid. It’s an old school shade tree way people would set the lifter preload. I’ve even seen people cut old valve covers up to make access windows to help control oil spray. They back the adjuster off till the rocker clatters, tighten it just till it quits, then go 1/2 turn. Lock it down. Basically when the clatter stops that’s “zero lash” then half turn sets the plunger preload inside the lifter. Can be done, but not very accurate imo. I follow exhaust opening, intake closing method.

[@hondrta]

Best time to do valve lash is first thing in the morning - aka when the motor has absolutely NO heat in it. I wouldn’t do it any other way unless it was an emergency. They did it with heat in the motor and look what happened. I learned that lesson very early on. Can’t believe they did that, but hey, I guess that’s how they got their lesson.

[@AB-80X]

I tend to warm up the engine, then set the lash on an intake and one exhaust. Then after everything has cooled, I use those two valves as my reference to set cold lash. After that, checking hot lash is easy and fast. Remember there's a big difference between setting hot lash and checking hot lash. I set mine cold and sometimes check hot. Only takes a few minutes to check once the valve covers are off as all you do is stick in that feeler gauge to verify lash. If lash needs adjusting, find out what's wrong, because lash usually only changes if something is about to break or is already broken.

Its definitely annoying when you're hurting for time and fans are coming up to you for pictures and you're patient with them and they just don't get it. Like, if you make a request of someone and they aren't able to honor it; get the point, walk away, come back another time. Its not that complicated! So frustrated for James fighting the car and some spoiled kid cant understand the situation.

[@torque-ej4nu]

It sucks because you can't tell them it's a bad time if they don't get it, because the fan following is what makes it all possible...

[@epikmeroッ]

i think they have this problem a lot, i'm sure cleetus addressed it in another video, someone actually got mad because cleetus didn't have the time to take a photo with them because he was trying to fix a car so it could make the next round.. seriously, people need to get the hint sometimes..

[@TheRedMenaceR]

@@torque-ej4nu I agree, but eventually it’ll lead to closed pits and more segregation between fans and competitors as we’ve seen with many different racing organizations. But as the saying goes, “it only takes one”

[@johncoinas]

Do they have a sign up. I thought they were gonna make one

[@NiliMoto]

Had to rewatch it i didn’t even hear it the first time. I kinda wish we knew what happene after. James looked a bit pissed after „i mean just right now“. How self-centered do you have to be to say something like that right after someone literally tells you no. What did he expect?

[@caninparks4928]

You just gotta love Sam. Props to Garret for making him part of the team. You can see how happy he is hanging out with you guys.

[@thomaslangton7099]

Sam needs a racer of his own he seems so happy driving the marauder

[@AndWhatISeeIsME]

I second a Sam project!

[@D.Ashlaw117]

They have all the Panther parts in the world.. maybe a sleeper Sam Marquis?

[@TheInsaneShecklador]

3:25 Need some PDR on the door of the Maurader. Sam's shine is making that ding show up something fierce.

[@kylewilliam487]

I am so happy Sam is racing with yall on this run. I love this channel so much.

[@albertvenable4122]

Need to fab some sort of covers for the front of the turbos for in the rain! That cold rain probably wasn't healthy on the valves and pistons

[@JohnRoberts71]

So funny looking at Steve’s car with him and his son in the backseat going down the road.

[@Josh_D03]

Seems like it would be hard to drive like that 😂

[@NovaRedHead]

Well it has a good center of gravity so it probably rides smooth, line of sight might be a different story though 😅... I would drive it in a heartbeat

[@TheBellvueRanch]

Y'all work so hard to give us fans such great content! Gotta get thru the rough stuff to enjoy the fun stuff! Great to see Sam out there racing with ya!! THANK YOU!!

[@stephenhammonds2834]

Tough break, brothers. I was thoroughly entertained, but I guess that's the point. Also: Ruby: I WANT TO LIIIIIIIIVVVEE!!!!!!!!
