Here are some old ones. Will get new videos when I finally get new 8 rib pulley conversion and Walbro fuel pump installed to address fuel starvation at WOT, and then will do some pulls. Running around 3.8 s 0 to 60 with old build. 426 should be faster just can't do full WOT runs yet because of fueling & belt slip issue.

Video of exhaust idling.

Video of 40 mph acceleration (old SC stroked 5.7 motor)

Video of sticky lifter (426 build that had to come apart yet again - it was a long road LOL).
What muffler you running again?

That video was with ARH Long tube headers, Y pipe, no cat and Corsa Sport Exhaust Systems #21035BPC. Absolutely no drone. However, it was loud as hell especially when you get on it but sounded awesome.

Just recently I installed a green high flow cat and short free/open flow muffler (from a diesel??) before the Corsa muffler to help tone it down some. Now its very tame around town but still sounds great when you get on it, and no exhaust smell in the cabin during drive thrus.

Someone’s build process just got extended quite a bit... strip it down and parts go to another truck.

The reflections in the paint on the roof and hood don't really match what's actually there on the ground...

Dare I say this may be the work of a person with *decent* photoshop skills? Even the various workers in the photo are seen to be pretty nonchalant given what (presumably) happened.

Lol wait robots make mistakes??
Hire a team of engineers to build the robot, to replace the human, only to have to hire humans to clean up the mess the robots made.

MAKES SENSE!!
Robots are still better than people. They aren’t perfect but people working in manufacturing know what having 1 bad crew does to an entire plant.
