Definitely get everything else sorted out properly please and Ben is amazing for what he is doing you Tim and get the Volvo V8 as a driving and road worthy truck so you can use it for the road and a show truck aswell and get it painted. Great CZcams video and i cannot wait for the next Volvo V8 CZcams video..... Keep up the great work Ben 👍👍👍👍 and you Tim thanks from mark from Wirral Merseyside 👍

  • @RenModus
    @RenModus Před 14 dny

    Tim, you need to let Bengineer record some in depth videos up on the 2nd channel of the work he's doing. As great as it is having an update every few weeks, you're really missing on an untapped market here by not videoing this stuff. You have 3 projects on the go, and I don't think the progress update videos are enough.
    There's so much Ben's done to the VF8, it's a shame that it's not been documented for all to see considering how unique it is. I would totally watch a 20 minute video of him doing nothing but tracing an air leak, as he's a natural in front of the camera. Anyone who thinks they would find that sort of content boring can stick to the main channel, but I would deffo subscribe to that sort of content and it wouldn't mess with the main channel audience. Gutted there wasn't a build video for the simulator, as that would have been really good to see happen - it needed it's own episode really.
    You only have to look at Mat Armstrong to see how much people enjoy the spannering and no one really does it with these big lorries... as I said, untapped market. It does need rebranding from "Life of Tim" (which sounds too general) to something like "TT Builds" to show what the channel is about.

    Well done for getting it built so far, only time before you have it finished. I have to ask, when Tim says WE have built it, i wonder how much he has actually done compared to Ben🤔. Financing it isn't the same as actually figuring it all out and physically fitting parts.

    • @Bengineer.

  • @alanburgess3977
    @alanburgess3977 Před 15 dny

    I respect the hustle of the FHV8 build, I have a bit of mechanical know how not as much as Ben the engineer. But I was watching and thought the truck was running a bit rich considering the smoke she was chucking out and also I’ll put this to you why not have a hydraulic clutch system which is normally on a Eaton fuller. Also to figure out gear ratio its gear ratio = teeth in driven gear. Same principle I guess as a motorcycle where is you change the sprocket size/number of teeth it changes ratio so you either end up with fast acceleration and low top speed or vice versa. If it helps I would love a shout out and hopefully a visit to the unit 😁

    In the end of the video you were wondering where Matthew Jackson went ........ he suddenly disappear .......... and I thought the same.
    Suddenly he was not around anymore :-) Anyway, he is not often at the garage, huh ??
    I hope you can fulfil a run at the test ground of that airport soon.
    The Volvo starts looking like a teal Racetruck, with the engine further back. (but now days they are not like these anymore.
    I've seen all trucks from 1980 on when they start with truck racing. But in 2010 I had to stop because of financial probs.

    Most fly by wire throttle pedals have dual wiring circuits you get some thing like 1-20 on one side and 20-1 on others so one sides going up others going down that way you don't get engine going wide at pedal inputs if one side fails.

All electrics are from the Scania but hidden behind a Volvo dash and cab. Still you obviously love a huge challenge Tim amd Ben!!! 😂😂

But I'd love to see this driving properly. And it would look good on the trailer behind either of your trucks or behind the 4 series where the engine came from.
