Small Cubes... Big Power! | Not Rod Ep. 11

[@richardsiegfried9423]

Good job on the mustang sir. I really believe your dad would be honored by how you and the mustang have come along. Keep up the great work brother. Love your Nova. Reminds me of my high school buddy who had a 72 Nova 2 door. He had his and I had my 67ss Nova. Those were good times. When I saw your and how much heart and soul you were putting into making it something it starting getting me to thinking how I would like to find one and restore in his memory. He passed in 2003 from a rare bone cancer. God rest his soul

[@georgew.morrowiii118]

Nice Mustang, and it will always keep a part of your father with you

[@WyoCutlass71]

I was coming back to watch through all of your episodes and I guess I missed this one. Glad I could see it!

[@1980bwc]

Sorry you lost your dad so young Ryan. I'm 40, and I still cant imagine how it would feel to lose my dad. That is for sure a nice Mustang bud. 67 is when they really started looking sharp!

[@martinmayhem7122]

The amount of time you guys take in producing and editing these videos is awesome. Lots of hours behind the scenes for sure. Great episode, and great tribute to your late father. Such a great story behind this car. Mean little 289, and the 50 cc kit is the ticket in big cam, low vacuum situations. Nice work - keep up it up !

[@SpineofgodIX]

Nice car, even better that you'll always have a piece of your dad with you

[@beachstylerides1090]

A collaboration between you and Thunderhead289 on KZbin would be great!

[@musclecarmaniac6786]

VERY kool that you have your dad's car to carry on his legacy. I recently lost my dad's Corvette that he bought new almost 40 years ago due to being hit head on and being out of work for over a year. The good times that we had in his Vette will live on in my heart forever.

[@olskoolsgarage9987]

Great video guys!! Sorry about the loss of your dad!! I’m sure he’d be proud if the work you’re doing!! Great job!!

[@JaredR1996]

That’s a nice looking mustang. Always love the videos u guys make 👍

[@kenswitzer4133]

Condolences My Friend. You have a great starting point.👍🇺🇸🤙😃

[@manktastic5594]

I've had good luck with WD40 when installing coolant hoses as you did on the heater core. Great video, thanks for sharing this with us.

[@fixins]

Rest easy, Jim. Cool car.

[@notsure8041]

I love the 289 ! I had one in a 79 f150 4x4. Now you need to fix that one tire fire and maybe a 4speed.

[@mrsannervin]

Boys will be boys🤪. Love you Ryan 💜. Miss you dad 😢.

[@edciasiii3308]

I think Jim would approve if you put a Detroit Tru-trac in the rear!

[@Provic90594]

I want to see more on this mustang, awesome video man. I have a 69 coupe I’m working on

[@kriskris5330]

Great episode! Body work looks amazing.

[@79tazman]

You really need a pozi for that pony

[@MichaelAnderson-nh4gu]

I just found this series, great stuff. My brother in law works at the body shop next to the gas station where taped on the Holly float bowls and my brother lives up the hill behind the Firestation. Looking forward to seeing you guys at Pacific Raceway when they can have spectators again.

[@HammerHeadGarage]

Beautiful car. Also a very good Holley tutorial video!

[@trentdawg2832]

Cutrently building a roller cam 302 to replace the tired 289 in my sons ‘67 mustang…..just gotta decide on a street friendly cam that will work with the power brakes and c-4 trans…probably gonna go with a 3000 stall converter!!!

[@HereIsRick]

Another great video.

[@matthewaustin6914]

Glad you got it going again.

[@robbiefrentz9427]

The ole one wheel peel 😀😀😀

[@wisheye1]

Beautiful car, sorry to hear about your old man.

[@tomschweikert9537]

needs a 327

[@doctorromex7804]

On a Vacuum Secondary always use a green pump cam and start with a 32 nozzle. I guarantee it wont hesitate. A 50cc pump is only necessary on Alcohol carbs or a Dominator.

[@docholliday9791]

I didnt expect to cry today

[@willbianco8931]

Did you race boats I never a garvey named doc holiday

[@paulwarrington4715]

The hoses help seal out air from the engine compartment. Just reach up behind the box and take the clamps off

[@kcb9455]

Beautiful car

[@kgooch69]

You'll need to do something about the single wheel peel...one black mark just looks silly...I assume it has the 8" in it...not a lot of gears to choose from. I'd like to see you guys do the 8.8 out of an exploder when the time comes.

[@gasratzcustoms]

Love your videos!!

[@johngossert3908]

I am a first time viewer and enjoyed your video! I think you may have taken the long way to get your hesitation out! The right vacuum secondary spring would have fixed that.

[@NotRodShop]

Thanks, glad you enjoyed the video. It's difficult to tell in the film but the hesitation was at only like 1/4 throttle which is well before the secondaries start opening.

[@chev500l8]

Haven’t heard lovely bunch of coconuts in awhile, classic Monty python.

[@dannystubblefield5478]

Need a Traction unit under the pony.

[@kmc468]

My Holley 750 just experienced the same trouble the front and rear bowl on the top of the carburetor have the two screws when you back them out it's the actual needle to allow gas in and out of the float bowl your actual float boul isn't receiving enough gas inside of it so that when the pumps running you have response but if you were to shut the fuel pump off and start it the vehicle won't run it all it'll act like it's out of fuel when actually it should run for a minute then the float bolt run out of gas your front and rear float bowl needles for the float are most likely not adjusted properly or the o-rings on them two are bad I just went through it on my carburetor on the very top of the front and rear the float bowl is too big flat screws on top of carb it allows the float needle to be higher or lower the needle so that it allows more gas in the bowl it sounds like yours are turned all the way in turn them a 8th turn out and then turn the nut that's underneath of them tight to the carburetor and that'll allow more gas in the bowl shut the fuel pump off start the car if it stalls immediately in acts like it's not got any gas then turn fuel pump on fire it if it runs but has hesitation and it's definitely the float bowl adjustments the needles just fix the same problem yesterday hope this helps you guys kurt

[@everettnapihaa6111]

This untamed is screaming for a dually launch on the blacktop!

[@JEB-wv8ti]

Hi Ryan, Finish Her for Your Dad. P.S., You Look Like Your Dad.

[@tomschweikert9537]

my dad would say, Ill fix it, but itll be stock

[@timothymilam732]

Why not take it through the progression he would have, as just few clips of his past, seems like he always moved forward with the times. Where as in the early 2000's, big carbs, big cams, decent power, but well above stock, and kinda retro was the thing to do. Just as a lot of us older ones were doing, kinda replaying our younger years for some, and for others, what they had always wanted to do. Plus we were still not impressed by the fuel injection, as it was mostly things that sorta looked like carburetors, but weren't, and not that impressive as far as we knew about making power. We did know how to do it with the combination your dad put together, even if he didn't build it himself, but he knew what he wanted . Whether it was fomoco, GM, are Dodge, they were still using the old school technology in the things most of us drove as far as engine designs. The trucks a whole lot of us drove, sorta had throttle bodies, with ford and dodge having odd shaped intakes, but chevy still had a lot of vortex engines running around, with normal intakes, and fake wanna be carbs. Yet the piece of cast iron below the manifolds, was old school, and with a little work, ran much better with aluminum intakes, carbs, headers, and dual exhaust if you could get by epa bs. Then LT, LS, DOHC's, and sorta Hemi's came into play, all with real fuel injection that was working, that natural progression I believe would of caught his attention. Especially, since we are older, and ethanol came into play, we don't mind fixing things once in a blue moon, but EFI, is so much friendlier to deal with ethanol, carbs not so. After replacing diaphragms, seals gaskets, needles jets, and some metering blocks because ethanol was eating our prized Holleys up, literally with in weeks after rebuilding, are replacing these expensive dinosaurs. A lot of us seen the light, and switched over to the once dark side, and now once more, we can go out to the shop, garage, wherever we keep them. Turn the key, and if batteries are hot, we go do whatever we do with our toys, but at the age we've made it to, bending over a vehicle every weekend, isn't the endless fun it once was. Not saying some of us don't enjoy doing such things, are building one up, but just fighting bs issues over an over, is more irritating, even with a few cold snacks with the old crew, not what we want to deal with. Sorry for the long read, but I didn't know how else to make it to where you could see his possible natural progression, and if you two were working on such things together, it's possible that he stayed true to our old ways too. I was just sharing what some, not all of us older ones have finally come around to, and offering it up to you, as a possible route to take. Yes I watched you two for some time, not far behind your first one have I been here, and so I know what you two youngsters have been up to. I seen myself several times in one or the other at times, and I see the old ways are still strongly embedded in your methodology, and mindset, for which I am glad you keep the old ways alive for everyone. Thank you both for that, and you two surely give some of us not so young ones some good laughs, and bring a few old stories back from the cobwebs too of the times one or more did something, are luck bite them accordingly.

[@brentmeredith5295]

You forgot the rubber ring seal on your heater box

[@ezcondition]

put a little gojo on the wire and then push it through the boot, slick as sh*t

[@FORDMANBUBBY]

Hey I sing that same song. My kids think I'm crazy lol.

[@michaelgraham2347]

Get a HEI distributor , msd box , quadrajet carburetor and the ford will be nice .

[@brucenaylor2043]

That one wheel peal........

[@raoulcruz4404]

Bullitt.

[@atsidis]

Posi in next

[@TbsDltn]

a 347 ford sb stroker v8 can make serious rwhp...imo

[@4eyefoxbodyfanclub625]

Remove the peg leg 3rd member chunk and swap it out for a 3.55-3.73 traction lock for better performance and acceleration.

[@xozindustries7451]

It’s time to replace the old braided steel fuel line, the thank fuel eats the inside I’d the old lines and it fill the carb with crap and it leaks and burns down your car

[@brentonburbank4320]

Where are you from I knew a him Blankenship from Redding California god bless your family always

[@drewfausett5388]

"that's pretty dumb" - mid 60's Ford engineering slogan.

[@chuckpratt447]

Are you getting gasoline ringwash in the oil

[@ThePaulv12]

Not that I know anything about anything but: *ensure there's no vacuum advance at idle because if there is then the when you floor it then the ignition will retard causing a bog *despite what KZbin experts tell you* remember I'm a nobody and don't know anything so my advice is more likely than not to be better than the experts *with the timing set, vac disconnected and plugged adjust the idle mixture via this method - set the throttle stop screw so the motor idles. Screw in mixture screw until it starts to lower in rpm then unscrew it until the rpm rises to the highest speed, then unscrew it a further half turn. Repeat this for all the idle mixture screws THEN reset the throttle stop screw if necessary and repeat the process. You see idle mixture is very important because it doesn't just control idle it controls idle to main metering circuit transition in the area the flat spot or bog was occurring. *also check the power valve isn't leaking

[@Handlehandlebars]

I'm no "you tube" expert as u call it ...but I run manifold vacuum on a few of my motors and they run like a top... if your "flooring" it then if your advance springs are set up right there's not even enough time for it to "retard" the advance as your saying... you have to remeber ported vacuum was only used to help the engine heat up the emissions equipment with a dirty exhaust.... stop spreading crappy advice

[@jonlennon3348]

Is it a real original hi-po 289 or was it a hydraulic motor to begin with.

[@NotRodShop]

Probably hydraulic but I've never run the numbers.

[@79tazman]

You forgot the rubber ring that goes on the box

[@AlbertoFloress]

yep, I also saw that

[@jessekillgallon1945]

What happened guys no new video's ??

[@brentonburbank4320]

Build a new box

[@MonzaRacer]

no the new Holley black accelerator pump diaphragms are not non ethanol compliant. They haven't made those in 15-20 yrs. Before ethanol fuel had MTBE and it's just as bad on gaskets and diaphragms. So many people bash ethanol but it's no where as bad as methanol. I see SOOOO much wrong ideas on tuning here. Sooooo much wrong. A small engine with huge heads supposedly and cam BUT a horribly restrictive dual plane intake. Talk about crutching a completely messed up setup. AND not researching just what's going on with it. Since you have zero knowledge of internals I would have dug in, and sis some disassembly to investigate just what's going on. Also if you don't know what cam is in it then how do you reset valve lash regularly?

[@trentdawg2832]

Give the kid a break……..Do you have any diy how to videos??…..maybe show the rest of us how its done😂😂😂
