I've got all sorts of stuff in my scrap bin. I used one inch sq chunks off a 5/16" angle to make weld in nuts for body mounts and seat mounts. Drill and tap the holes and then cut them out and weld in those hidden spots !:) Thanks Tony, I'm enjoying and learning:)
Oh my god Burt and Ernie with the licorice! 🤣 thank you for bringing back that long lost memory. The aliens that kinda looked like octopus were always my favorite, yep yep yep yep uh huh uh huh 🤣
Take it off, put it on, take it off again, put it back on, it's all part of the process. And, Crusty is coming along nicely! Thanks for also showing us the other side project you've been working on, the Mustang race car. You're a busy man! Nice work Tony, as always and great tips too!
Hi Tony. Crusty is coming along. That is a lot of engine stuffed into that little engine compartment. Should run like a banshee! It might be a little tricky plumbing the exhaust into the hot side of the turbo. I'm sure though, that you will figure it out! Thanks for the video!
It's looking good Fitzee...Your right to leave that engine as far forward as you can, with the wheel base only 93-94 inches you might have to add weight up front to keep it down.
The car toyota should have built going to be awesome now after watching a few of these videos my son wants to build a vw bug new chasis motor in front type thing all the while im working on 4 projects of my own thanks again fitzees i really want to see it all hooked up its a hell of a squeeze
You're gonna need some wheelie bars on the rear of that !! Zoom, Zoom, Zoom!! Reminds me of my old 240z V8 project! May your rear wheels always spin faster than the front wheels!
That was a nice spot you have for it. My only suggestion is that you lower the front end and see how much clearance you have with the tire. Just in case when you take off and the front end comes up, the front end will come down again and you don't want any rubbing. Otherwise it is a great installation. Your trans mount is a thing of beauty as well.
It's coming together nicely! As I was watching, I wondered if anyone had ever plumbed a separate oil system for the turbos. Like a dry sump isolated to supply only the turbos.
hope your going to run it with the hood off, if not a wouldn't bother paint in it, also one needs to consider dissipation and the effects on the lights and side reflector, even the wiring could be issue in that corner. fantastic work as usual, thanks for taking the time to video and post, I've learned an awful lot from your videos.
If you'd thought of it earlier, you could have stretched the front of the car a few inches. Just cut the fenders and hood and add a strip of metal to make them longer. It would have given you a lot more room to work with and it wouldn't have been that noticeable.
I notice it. I'm wanting the outside of this car to look totally stock. You can see when a car is lengthen. I done as small as a few inchs and it always jumped out at me. It would be the easy fix all the same but not for this project
Started watching to learn to butt and plug weld sheet metal. This is interesting too. I do wonder though how it'll all work with the driveline solidly mounted w/o any rubber motor mounts to isolate vibration. Won't things vibrate apart? Also, what about heat expansion - headers for instance, and turbo cooking the paint off the hood? Lots of challenges, but fun to watch.
Hmmmm... You're a Wizard, Fitzee! Somehow you cast the unlimited extension charm on that engine bay so that it actually has more room than it does. (Don't know if you are familiar with those Harry Potter books... but wouldn't that be nice to have an engine bay that acts like a Wizards tent? Small looking on the outside but much more roomy inside...) If you aren't a wizard, then you are a miracle worker or something. I'm looking at that engine and the space you got and I just don't see how you can cram all that in there PLUS a turbo... Just amazing.
Ooooohhhhh.... you are going to cut 2 inches out of the headers...NOW it's starting to make more sense. I was going to ask you to tell us where to get a magic wand, which I figured you were obviously using ... lol.
I've always been amazed at the number of times that I would be struggling with a fitment problem. It would fight me and fight me. I would get tired and make mistake after mistake. Finally, I would admit defeat, throw in the towel and go get some sleep. Then, the next day, I would come back out to the shop and have the problem solved in about five minutes. Do other guys experience this too?
Very much so. I game plan at first clouds our judgment. It was our main plan. When we get away from it we think about new plans. I don't this more times then I care to count. Your not alone here
Hi tony was wondering what u would charge for a usb with all of the vids on crusty so far . And post to australia as im about to do the same chassis set up on a small car myself . Mine just going to be a box stock 283 chev though . As i like old school stuff aswell . Im a huge fan of crusty . And god bless you . You are a great man
Fitzy, silly question from an old Aussie, but would replacing the turbo and manifold support bolts. with stainless socket head cap screws, give you a bit more "bolt head clearance?" Love watching how you get things done and your ability to logically "look forward" and "reverse engineer" your components, to make things demountable when necessary. Hope that the weather is improving over there and that the oncoming summer season, will give you some more hours in the garage.. (or shed, as we say here in Australia).
Yes you are correct on the bolts. These were on hand in the shop. I tend to put all m New bolts in there. Not fussyon stainless bolts as they are softer and don't like to be tighten multiple times. They gave me troubles in the past.
@@fitzeesfabrications Thank you young man; I appreciate your reply and looking forward to more "Crusty" and your other works in the mill. I follow you, Elin Yakov, Carter Restorations and Yorkshire Car Fabrications. All of you do fantastic work, with simple tools craftmanship and skills learned with their hands.
If you have a component liable to Rapid Unscheduled Disassembly, it's a good idea to put it somewhere you won't be driving into the cloud of hot shrapnel. :-)*
Hello Fitzee, looking good. One question- when turning left and the A-arm raises up is there still enough clearance for the turbo? I am sure you thought of that, just looks so close on camera. Another great program sir, look forward to the next one. Take care 👍
That’s cool she’s getting there! Just one question about that mustang how in the hell does one get in it , I’m about the same age as you Tony and there is no way I’m bending to get in around that. As always another awesome video, love watching stuff on the shop coming together
I was thinking the same thing… Furthermore it’s not so much getting in.. what happens if God forbid you gotta get out in a hurry 🤔🤔😱😱😱😱… Well let’s hope that situation never arises… Crusty is coming along nicely… pretty soon she’ll be terrorizing the track
I know you checked steering angle & what not but did you check full bump if the front end comes up off the ground.?? It would not be fun to have the tire come up & hit the turbo!
Hello Fitzee. I wonder you Mount the Motor without silentblocks. There must be alot of Vibrations in the car. Than you Mount the turbo not at the Motor but also at the frame. Other Vibrations than the Motor has. Do you think about Resonanzvibes that destroy you Mountings or the intake pipe or the exhaust. Take care Yours Frank Galetzka
Your over thinking it. Sold mounted setups been around a long time. Thing with a car like this is a fun toy. When you want to find ever little advantage you can you will loose some part of the comfort aspect of the car.
@@fitzeesfabrications yes you are absolut right. This is a racing car and not a New limousine just out of the dealerShop. You does a great work Thank you for the Videos . Have a good New week take care Yours Frank Galetzka
Cause the roll bar will be in the way. Ir I lower it to clear the roll bar the cold side of the turbo will be below the intercooler. I tried a bunch of way.
The wheel is set to ride height now. Problem might arise it I'm hard breaking into a corner. But this won't be a road corse car. It's a point and shoot car. Hard breaking at finsh line with wheels straight it's not going to hit.
Been Following for about 2 to 3 years now - Love the Videos Fitz, But please don't add music to them, I for one just like it the way it was. or make the sound lower, just my 2 cents ok. Plus it's time for new T's Also will you ever get back to Patches
Tony, that mustang would look so much better if you put some capri quarters n fenders on it. my first car was a '86 capri, everyone thought it was a mustang....guess they missed the widebody flares and bubble glass hatch... and I missed the 302, but I pushed all 4 of those cylinders to their limit all the time...sure was fun.
That Turbo looks like a ton of work the piping will be a snake dance for sure maybe a stock manifold would be better for your fitment Tony . just a thought . keep up the good work . Your friend as always Kel.
Stock manifolds won't fit. They bring up in upper control arms. That was my plan. These headers are my easiest fix. I can make a couple of log manifolds but that's just more work.
@@fitzeesfabrications ya you be limited for space . If I was their I would build you some manifolds . That would fix that problem. Had to do that a few times one was a big block Monza spider. Very tight fit but I made it work as I'm sure you will. Have ya ever thought about moving the turbo to the back of the cars exhaust. The newer Corvettes did that and it seemed to work well but a ton of pipe . Plus side the heat is disbursed before it hits the engine bay. Down side a wee bit of lag on the turbo . Just some ideas Tony. I know you will get er done no matter the problem. So many choices eh .lol Should be a rocket ship for sure.
As soon as a Fitzee notification pops up it's an automatic like!
That's the first thing before the vid even starts.
Facts
Exactly the way it works!
👍💪✌
It's a pleasure watching a master at his craft.
Gonna be a tight fit, but we got faith in you Fitz ! !
I've got all sorts of stuff in my scrap bin. I used one inch sq chunks off a 5/16" angle to make weld in nuts for body mounts and seat mounts. Drill and tap the holes and then cut them out and weld in those hidden spots !:) Thanks Tony, I'm enjoying and learning:)
As always the tips were good. Can’t wait to see it finally get fully reassembled
Oh my god Burt and Ernie with the licorice! 🤣 thank you for bringing back that long lost memory. The aliens that kinda looked like octopus were always my favorite, yep yep yep yep uh huh uh huh 🤣
Yep yep yep.. telleeephoone yep yep yep
There’s a reason guys like us can’t sleep at night, we’re building the car in our head 🤣
Amen to that!!
Excellent job. Just love the logic. Not afraid to change if a better idea pops up.
More gussets the merrier . And I like to see a blow out safety chain. Nice build. Great job. Have a good week.
Always enjoy your little antics at the end. Like playing with your turbo and making little engine sounds...
Take it off, put it on, take it off again, put it back on, it's all part of the process. And, Crusty is coming along nicely! Thanks for also showing us the other side project you've been working on, the Mustang race car. You're a busy man! Nice work Tony, as always and great tips too!

Crusty is the best build going on YT I have seen.....one that doesn't cost a million dollars. Labor, material and a boatload of experience.
Being in the zone is good it's like hearing some cool Jazz music....it's coming together yes indeed fitzee....🙂👍🙏
Things are getting small in there but your making it work, nice job Tony
Turbo sound effects were priceless!😂😂
You are making good progress… I love watching this build.
Looking good keep up the good work.
u must be dizzy all the turning around you do lol😂😂 love your stuff thanks for sharing
Tony is "A man and his creation"
Another awesome video 👍👍
Nice video Tony. My motto is BUILD SLOW, DRIVE FAST
Great job yet again
The turbo whistle sounds mean! LMAO!
Loving your work. A small bonnet bulge over the turbo would be fine - if it protects your tyre/paint
It's looking good Fitzee...Your right to leave that engine as far forward as you can, with the wheel base only 93-94 inches you might have to add weight up front to keep it down.
I honestly did not expect a turbo build for crusty but I’m all for it!
Great fabricating Fitzee , keep it going!!
I am looking forward to seeing the hot side of the turbo plumbing. Crusty is gong to be a fun ride!
The car toyota should have built going to be awesome now after watching a few of these videos my son wants to build a vw bug new chasis motor in front type thing all the while im working on 4 projects of my own thanks again fitzees i really want to see it all hooked up its a hell of a squeeze

Turbo power!! Sweet
Fun to watch you build a race car!

Your trans mount is a thing of beauty as well.
The tire clears it all togeather when wheels are straight. It's only on hard turns to the left it will cause a issue
Moving right along fitzee.. forward progress 👌
You and your racing buddy's should start calling yourselves the island boys LOL
Other great video. Worth the wait tony. Your killing me with your turbo sound. Lmao
It's coming together nicely! As I was watching, I wondered if anyone had ever plumbed a separate oil system for the turbos. Like a dry sump isolated to supply only the turbos.
Think some big hp turbo cars are dry sump so the turbos will have to run off same system
short but great thanks Fitz
Thanks Tony 👍
I like it!
Darn good show.
Wow
Headers are going to be a treat, not much room on drivers side😮
Yeah, Crusty's back .
hope your going to run it with the hood off, if not a wouldn't bother paint in it, also one needs to consider dissipation and the effects on the lights and side reflector, even the wiring could be issue in that corner. fantastic work as usual, thanks for taking the time to video and post, I've learned an awful lot from your videos.
Nice!!!!
You can turn the center of the turbo 45 degrees left or right so the oil return can clear the brackets
yeah number 1!
Thanks!
Thank you
Nice intro music. It reminds me of ZZ TOP
Trusty Crusty !

Is there a way to move your radiator core support forward a bit? Might help with the plumbing and headlights. Nice build, looks like fun!
It's all as far forward as it can go
Nice Video. Nice Work.

Im happy to pay shipping and ur time to putt it toggether and the usb stick .
Have you thought about running a brace on the other side of the exhaust flange up to the fender? A bit weird but a single strap would work
No I want all the engine to be on its own. Comes time to tune this I like to have no front on it so it can get at all the engine with ease
The first video I watched was that Cowel hood
Fitzy, silly question from an old Aussie, but would replacing the turbo and manifold support bolts. with stainless socket head cap screws, give you a bit more "bolt head clearance?"

Thats a hard turn. I don't intend to be turning that hard under breaking
Maybe put a stop on the suspension on that side.
swop the header round backwards fit turbos inside car, cover dog kennel arrangement. it is a track car at end of the day. lol
Bits your tongue. Lol. Its a "street " car!! Lol
@@fitzeesfabrications 🤐🤐🤣🤣😂😂
Love the Turbo sounds at the end!
Was the copyright issue with your intro music?
Yes I run into that now a few times with same crowd. I had that music now 3 years. Not from the youtube library.
That’s cool she’s getting there! Just one question about that mustang how in the hell does one get in it , I’m about the same age as you Tony and there is no way I’m bending to get in around that.

The owner alot smaller then me. There was a number of issues with this car that I had to deal with. I build the cage from inside out. Lol
Tony, are you going to paint the frame? The car looks great!😊
Of yes I'll do that just before I put the body back on.
I know you checked steering angle & what not but did you check full bump if the front end comes up off the ground.?? It would not be fun to have the tire come up & hit the turbo!
It's only a problem if your turned hard left had hit a bump. This car is not made for cornering. So this won't be a problem
Will the wheel travel when turning into a uphill drive or going over a speed bump cause some headaches with that turbo position ?
This is a really hard turn. End of the lock. You only go that far if your parking the car in a simple corner it is not close to it.
enough tire clearance when you slam down from a wheelie ? 😁
As long as the wheel is straight it be no problems. I think about crazy things like that too. Lol
Hello Fitzee.
I wonder you Mount the Motor without silentblocks.
There must be alot of Vibrations in the car.

It would be good if you could get the passenger side header lower, but I’m sure that’s not going to happen, time to figure out the challenges!
I like a log manifold setup. Still a option. These header will need to be shorten on the collector but can work
Hey would you sell that dash panel for the 35 pontiac that's hanging up on the back wall?
I have that a long time. I like my wall art. Sorry
WHY DID YOU NOT ROTATE THE EXHAUST HOUSSING ON THE TURBO TO FACE THE HEADER OUTLET FOR MORE CLEARANCE
Cause the roll bar will be in the way. Ir I lower it to clear the roll bar the cold side of the turbo will be below the intercooler. I tried a bunch of way.
Seat belts please 😂
Fitzee do you think that you will have a good clearance for your wheel and turbo bracket at full compression
The wheel is set to ride height now. Problem might arise it I'm hard breaking into a corner. But this won't be a road corse car. It's a point and shoot car. Hard breaking at finsh line with wheels straight it's not going to hit.
