Very important for using a DA polisher: you'll need multiple pads of each type if you want to do your whole car at once. One pad per 1-2 panels. The pads get dirty from oxidized paint and dried polish, which can get slung across the surface you want to correct. After every 2x2 section, you'll want to blow them out with compressed air or spin on a pad brush. This would actually be a great "how to" video to cover. Most of the beginner DA polishing videos just show before/after and not what's needed/how to properly correct an entire vehicle.

The way the intake looks is dead on for a Corvette, but I Know Ferrari also uses that style intake, and the engine is pushed so far back.

Cool stuff as always Chris! Just a note...on that E85 kit....you may not save as much as you think. E85 gas has less energy than E10 or E15 or "regular gas". So it takes more gas to get the same distance. 30 MPG on E15, might only be 25 MPG on E85. So the savings needs to be over 30-40% in gas price just to break even with the energy loss and extra fuel needed to purchase. How do I know? I drove a 2009 Dodge Grand Caravan 3.3l v6 for 8 years. It was E85 compatible from new. I only bought E85 when it was more than 30% cheaper. Those prices you found/showed? Not reality around the US. Most are 20-30% or less in price difference...making it not worth putting it in. Plus, there are differences in fuel lines/fittings, etc....and that kit may void any warranty left. That said...E85 is a more environmentally friendly fuel, since it's 85% ethanol, made from corn products.
@chrisfix3 жыл бұрын
Thanks! I couldn’t get into details but I lost 20% in fuel economy and with the gas prices in some states you save 50% so that means in reality it’s 30% cheaper which is still decent.

I'm skeptical on the kit. I had a crown Vic with the same engine (close model year) as that drift stang. The same e85 conversion question would come up at any gas price spike. The answer was always the same by the enthusiasts, don't do it. E85 is going to dry out anything designed for gasoline only and lead to premature failure on the fuel lines. The flex fuel vehicles had different lines to resist the issue, but not impervious. So if you wanted to do the conversion, you can, but unless you replaced all the lines you were asking for a premature failure. Naturally you need to program for E85 like this does, but it's not as simple as just doing that.

Just a small correction (and with 5000+ comment im sure its been mentioned before, but in the off chance its been missed) @2:20 These weight ratings in the door jamb are not the vehicle weights. GAWR/GVWR stands for gross axle weight rating, or gross vehicle weight rating. These are weight RATINGS, and rate the maximum safe weight to have over either axle (or total for the vehicle for the gvwr). This is important to know if youre loading the car with a bunch of heavy stuff, or towing things.

That and the fuel lines are not designed for it. The flex fuel vehicles have different file lines to resist the problem. All the forum posts I have read state it's like dry out or something. Regardless it's a premature failure because the materials are not right. Your need to replace the whole system really for the conversion, and most people won't do it, or pay the huge fee for it, expensive gas is cheaper and gets you more mpg than e85 (failed to mention that in the video when talking price per gallon). Not as simple as just programming like that company makes it seem.

Ethanol itself doesn't eat through anything, where you get problems are crap quality E85 fuels with water in them.
@chrisfix3 жыл бұрын
That’s actually a misconception and inaccurate. Ethanol does not affect aluminum chemically. Ethanol has an affinity for water more than gasoline so on stuff like boats or collector cars where they sit a lot, the water causes increase corrosion rates. Also ethanol, unlike gasoline, can conduct electricity and cause galvanic corrosion which is more likely a problem in boats not cars. Most fuel tanks in cars are plastic so it’s not a big deal anyway. Most fuel system parts are stainless so again not a problem.
@chrisfix3 жыл бұрын
@@TheJuanSolid another misconception. That’s why I say check the website to make sure the car is compatible. The type of fuel line used and the different parts of the fuel system are taken into account in their database so it makes sure the fuel system will not be harmed by the E85. Hence the reason the DriftStang and Del Sol have been fine 2 years later and will continue to be fine.
@TheJuanSolid3 жыл бұрын
@@chrisfix I'll wait for your video, but it makes no sense for the vehicle engineers to not implement e85 across the board then. It would make the vehicles more popular and lead to increased sales. No brainer, but they don't do it. Add on fuel credits they need to buy due to inefficient vehicles and sounds insane not to do it. However for a cheap price and quick install you can finally unlock what big transport does not want you to know! Use any other too good to be true sounding statement and it's probably why people believe the misconceptions and incorrect info etc.

Heya Chris, excellent video as always. I'm sure you have done your research on the matter, but as a fellow owner of a Gen 3 'mystery car' I wanted to pass on advice that was burned in to my brain by the community of owners. I am a die hard WIX guy, but was told very explicitly for this car to only use the OEM filter. Filter number is MO-836. Cheers Chris, enjoy it in good health, they are wonderful cars. 🍻

I would like to mention that ethanol based fuel is less energy dense than regular gasoline. Although the price of ethanol based fuel is less than regular gas, it does not give you the same miles per gallon. In fact it gives you 15% to 27% less mpg compared to regular gasoline.
@makalaga563 жыл бұрын
It is still cheaper than regular :) 1/2 of the price for 70-80% economy :)

If it can fit under your door sills then yea totally you can lift a car up with 4 ramps, normally I drive up the ramps in the front and jack it up in the rear and use “wheel cribs” to hold it up or jack stands.
