I Built A 500 HP LS Engine For My Scrap Yard Tow Truck!

I built a 500 HP LS engine for the Model A tow truck build Rory is doing! Watch as we assemble the engine from scratch, fire it up, and get it ready for the Model A build. This is one big step closer to turning this tow truck into a powerhouse! 🔥🔧💪🚗

Something so satisfying about seeing a fresh engine build fire right up and running like a champ on an engine stand!

Great to see "the boss" get involved more and more. Great family entertainment and experience.

Hey, Robbie, a very useful shop-built tool for engine assembly is a pre-oiler. I always use assembly grease, but the final step was to add the oil under pressure. Harbor freight sells a 5-gal portable air tank; just cut a filler hole in top with a cap. Add the oil to the tank and then connect outlet hose to an oil gallery plug, apply air pressure to tank and push the oil throughout the whole motor just as the oil pump would. You now have a fully oiled motor ready for startup.

Hey you need to say something nice adopt Hillbelly. That guy is a keeper; seems to be an overall great mechanic

[tallslimpr]

This is a video to be shared. Entertaining totally!

[anthonycrumb]

Love the banter between the crew members. Hello pot and kettle, Robby used "33 inch" tires at the offroad games 🤣🤣🤣
This crew is so much fun to watch.

[drewpeltier]

I think you both played each other. Stuff got done probably quite it bit faster than it would have. 😄

[TheDogLife]

The funny part about the bet is that these guys laugh that he'll get the job done faster but he actually lit a fire under Robby as well. 😂 Great way to make work fun for everyone.

[patthornton]

Sounds good can't wait to see it moving the wrecker.
