I rebuilt and restored Corvettes for over 30 years and if you need anything for your brakes on a C3 you need to get them from SSBC, "Stainless Steel Brake Corporation”, all of their products come with a lifetime guarantee, you’ll probably never need to use the warranty but its there if you need it. Out of all the calibers I replaced on C3s and that’s in the hundreds, maybe 5 calibers had to be returned, and that was due to a bad seal and had nothing to do with the quality of the calibers supplied by SSBC. Let me add if you have any questions concerning your car like fixing a broken hood cable, a door that won’t unlock, or headlights that won’t lift or go down, don’t hesitate to contact me on CZcams. Speaking of hood cables you should replace the pull cable and the cross-over cable while you have it apart, it’s fairly easy to do with the car in its current state of repair.

Kinda wish they'd have tested the real 427.. a 'surrogate' engine may as well just be any other eng.

Had V 8 in 8 N Ford track....rare, impractical, cool engines, not good ones.

😅that would fit nicely in my 71 chevelle I'm building for my granddaughters sweet 16 car

Cleans up and paints the calipers but doesn't clean up and paint the ugly bolts. 😢

That powder was oxidized aluminum so new pistons are needed for the one caliper.

Bout time! Been waiting. Glad you’re working on her again

I prefer nickel-copper alloy tubing but I did buy a rusty truck that had the rear line replaced with nickel-copper and was leaking again. It had a rusty tube nut

Calipers are easy enough to get it just makes more sense to buy them from the auto parts store or at least get Lonestar caliper

I'm not completely sure, but that replacement caliper you got probably has the original style lipseals in it. Those things are dangerous and bound to fail at any moment. Double check your purchase details and if it has lipseals put o rings in it too.

If only more people rebuilt parts of their vehicles. Often times the rebuilt part can be better than new. Repairs using stainless steel is a good way to give long life to parts.

Been waiting on a C3 update, thank you!

I've gotten 920 n a 427 cid

If you want a good value street sport pad with excellent stopping power and feel/modulation try Raybestos EHT.

That first caliper had been rebuilt

great video again and crazy to see that bleed nip boss just broke off from casting :O

Glad to see you working on the C3, thanks for sharing. 👍😎👍

Nice work, thanks

Try CLR.

Thanks for Sharing 👍👍✌

I always appreciate the Corvette build updates. Edit: As always, I like how honest and humble you are.

I’ll keep my Holley 750, cool video tho.

How’s the head room

turbo Ford six

Checking in two years on ... have they done it?

Stirs the memory.

Great videos new subscriber here you sound just like the guy from Mooremafia motorcycle.

CHI in Australia makes great stuff

why would you put that much money in a junk yard motor that has no following or value?

The new seal, or donut, that you get at the dealership is hard styrofoam and will not compress. Unfortunately the only way to do this anymore is to cut your own seal out of a dense closed cell foam you buy at a craft store or Amazon. That's what I had to do this past weekend and it worked well. Now I have the Mopar seal which I paid for but cannot use or return.

85hp from 239 cubic inches(3.9L) with 180° Valve Angle in 1932. Nowadays same CID makes 300hp with 20° Valve Angle. Ardun cylinder heads modification doubled the Flathead block's HP

Flatheads solve the problem that makes boxer and v engines impractical. They just need force induction for the lack of compression and maybe those weird double cam valves that ducati uses to prevent float. Yeah maybe the way the combustion pushes against the valve pocket kind of sucks, but the compact and robust construction ends up being more economical and environmentally friendly in the end, because you don't have to use a megawatt or burn a ton of coke for a new block every 5 years.

Fucking awesome man Good lord 👍👍👍👍👍

I got a 6.0 with ls3 heads and intake swap and btr3 stage cam this is nice to see this applied ob the dyno great video

Just purchased an 81 And got to do the same things. Finally found someone who is showing how it’s done. Much thanks hp Monster.

Excellent

That valve spring tool is slick as silk 👌🏻

This video trips me out. The technology here is amazing. Loved the Dyno pulls.

The Ford straight six 4.9 is the best of the best. Chevrolet will never out perform a Ford Product

We need a update on the progress

Awesome build. I go the University of Screwtube.

NASCAR sucks

How would two 300 ford sixs go in v12 format . 10 LTRES

Here's the best tip for breaking in a flat tappet cam without lifter failure. Throw the cam in the trash and buy a roller...

Great install video. I'll definitely refer back to it when I finally do this upgrade to my 2010 JK. Thanks so much!

ooOOOoo Tissue time 🤩

Split bumper Camaro

That 3 main bearing issue just killed my interest in high power flatheads. I'd rather keep the power low and use them for the nice sound they make. Even inline 4 cylinder engines in compact cars have 5 main journals. That was the wrong place to save costs for Ford. Iron is cheap, and so are bearings. Nickle's and dimes for a manufacturer. Huge corporate mistake.

Hola, yo monte un cuerpo de aceleración de Jeep 4.7 con un elevador de 3 pulgadas, inyectores de f150 5.4 con 4 spreas y la araña 2000 con una caja msd y bobina Mallory además de programar la computadora, el motor 4.0 original se volvió una bestia humillando a 350 y 6.0 de Chevrolet preparados para competencia

Very nice can’t wait
