Hey scotty why does that engine spin so hard ?

[ryantilley-general.shenanigans]

I'm glad the shifter didn't miss out on the fun!

[ashersoderblom]

Hey Scotty. Have u considered running split ratio rocker arms to improve the cylinder evacuation on the exhaust stroke. Such as 1.65:1 intake and 1.72 exhaust. This would correct the cams underspecked lift on exhaust lobes. Making it more suitable for boost.

[WHDRWN]

Hey Scotty! Cleetus thinks he's so cute with his baby mullet, You should grow a rats tail to stunt on him next summernats.

Its good to see a real world engine build, cheap tools - dirty motor in the corner of a workshop .Just got to love the honnesty of your videos - the reallity is this is sometimes how you have to do engine work .

[andrewmurray]

hi Scotty, watching this particular engine build with great interest, just bought a VX Commodore station wagon

[BURKO]

L67's are notorious for spinning big end bearings. Throw a set in at $65 even if the crank is chewed. Better than running on copper. Also that timing chain won't last on that big camshaft.

Long live the MANG!!! Love this build it's my favorite on the interballs at the moment. Vn - Vr commos hold a warm place in my heart and this thing is going to be a Wolf in sheep's clothing.

[beardbuilds]

Super Mang to the rescue!!! I think most people will agree it was turning into the Barra show for a bit there . Love you work Scotty and long live the shifter !!

[LV-FOURTWENTYSIX]

great work Scotty. I'm enjoying the 6 cylinder love. I even dragged out the old v6 vengeance mag the other day. my money's still on the ford.

[BeeskneesBen]

Hey Scotty, that cam needs resno stiff valve springs and inlet valve guide machining. A std timing chain & tensioner won't last long and it's quite likely the valve retainer will kiss your valve stem seals. Didn't Mace supply or tell you this?

[WDN]

Thanks Scotty I’m about to pull my engine from my foo mangchu Vn for a rebuild my turbo has magically made my ring non existent haha
This video will help a ton cheers 👍🏼

[bunning]

I would not sleep at night, wondering what those bearings look like. I get its just a cheapie, but I'm paranoid.

[slowlearner]

Seems like you're enjoying the mang more than the barra at the mo. Looking forward to seeing this thing on the dyno. These motors are so under rated.

[jmyd]

I really appreciate all of Team Carnage's hard work 👍🏻

[wesgates]

I like playing with the L36 in my 96 Firebird, fun engine to work on. We eliminated the balance shaft, tapped and plugged the rear bearing oil feed. Also fitted ARP rod bolts.

[HappyJoyKill]

Jesus Im' watching a smart knowledgeable bogan build up an L67 V6 buick motor in the year 2020. Oh how far we have come =P

[ElMaximoBango]

That motor should turn over A LOT easier than that!

[jamesblanton]

Good 1 Scotty, not much went wrong this episode. Finally a WooHoo day for ya big bloke !

[deansaccount]

That 70s porno music when Scotty was lubing his shaft was a magical touch, love the work boys!
