When my buddy's '96 Prelude with the H23 in it threw a rod, that's the exact place where it made a window, except it was all the way through and it made a nice 2" hole. He paid $800 for the car so he was like meh, I'll just replace the motor and then flip it. He was over the car by that point. We replaced that short block with one that was supposed to have been a bent valve in the head from a thrown timing belt. Turned out that it broke the crank between #1 & #2 cylinders. When I started it up it actually ran because it was broken part way through the fat part of the crank, so it was actually still pushing cylinder #1 around, but it made a hell of a racket. Ran it for a few seconds, then shut it down. Checked everything, found nothing wrong so started again, super loud clacking, shut it down again. Pulled oil pan and found the broken crank when turning it over by hand. It was 33 days after we bought the short block too so the yard we bought it from shafted us on it because it was past the 30 day return window. I can't remember where we got the 3rd block from but we drove all the way to Gary Indiana from Buffalo to buy one and the dude turned out to be a scammer and we never got that motor. I can't remember where we finally found one, but it was a really hard to find motor. IIRC I think the machine shop we talked to about maybe frankensteining the two blocks together found one locally. We were trying to take the block with the bad crank and put the other crank in it, but that block was too far gone too. The crank clearanced itself into the casting. We got it all together and running, then painted the car after that to try to squeeze a few more bucks out of the sale. I was in on the deal at this point and we were going to split the "profit". My father was driving past it with a fork lift a few days after the paint was done, and dropped a metal cabinet on the freshly painted hood. That paint job looked so good before that. After we redid the body work and re-shot the hood, we took it out for a spin and the throwout bearing blew apart which took out the clutch fork. We fixed that and finally just put it out to the road for sale with a couple other little things wrong because we were so sick of working on it. A couple months later it hadn't sold yet and some dude lost a cinder block off the back of his flatbed and skated that across the top of both front fenders and the whole hood. Somehow we ended up still finding a buyer for the car in that condition, and even with the jacked up hood, he ended up giving us over 4 grand for that car. I mean the paint still otherwise looked amazing but we were both surprised. By that point we were ready to cut our losses and move on. My buddy has OCD with stuff like this so he went through every last receipt we had and even got a rough estimate of all the gas we used on trips and electricity in the shop. We broke nearly dead even on the deal. I think we made $40 on it, so we went and bought some burritos and beer with it to celebrate our narrow escape from that nightmare. That 'Lude was cursed.
Topped a million subs.
only 10 years at 1000hp? See those Al rods just aren't dependable… 😉
I know nothing about fwd drag cars but is there something that you can do to stop all the play in the wheel down the strip? Seems like they are always all over the place when cruising.
Ahhhh the hurt in brents eyes when the motor said no mas
Who keeps letting kyle do burnouts inside the water box? Im sure he’s getting water dripping down on the tires down track
She couldn't have done better man, she did everything you asked. Time to make her great again!!
If you know how I can pay to get my license instead of just taking the driver's test. Please get in touch & let me know. I'll pay however much it would cost. Just get in touch so we could talk more about this. Please. I would greatly appreciate it.
10 years later ran a 10
RIP!!
Keep it H series
Ya need to buy Brent a battery, inverter and laptop charger……. Good to see Gordo rocking it too.
how come you guys are only doing half as much content as you used to? having 1 video every 4-5 days on average is really slacking due?
I know you love fl and for the weather its good so yoir not out for half fhe year but fl its pretty much uou and Wyatt I thought when you came it woild be alot of collab with cleet etc but its pretty much not. I miss you guys in Colorado with the pfi boys. I mean you sjoild atleast just do half and half stay in fl when its snowing kn Colorado and tracks are closed when snow is gone come back and stay back. I mean right now its you and Wyatt at the fl house drag strip here and there thats it no collabs nothing. Atleast in Colorado you had Brent and Jamie and all the pfi squad to do content with etc. Just my opinion.
0:41 what car is the cherry one on the background?
Soon as you lose those bearing clarences This shit happens with boost.lol
imagine if the laptop didnt die. that saved the oil down the track. always a sad day when an OG goes down tho but the lude 2.0 is gonna be nasty!!!!!
Is it gonna stay H-series or is it gonna go K-swap?
“I’ve never done anything to the motor…”
