I love posting these before & after shots. Nothing good ole fashion Pinesole and scotch brite pads couldnt handle. Soaked them for 24 hours and then spent a good 3 hours scrubbing. I think they came out great.

After identifying the issue with the Speedmaster roller rockers, I took them to a buddy who runs his own shop. To my surprise, he mentioned this was quite common. He's going to take some photos and measurements and report back to SM. Big thanks to ‪@JonnyMopar‬​ for hooking me up with a set of original rocker arms. Project War Wagon is almost back on the street 🤙

What say you?

I, personally, dont think it looks too bad for a flat tappet camshaft break-in. This is WITH the filter magnet on as well. No large pieces or chunks. Just fine dust. Rest of the oil looked fairly clean coming from the pan. No metal sludge found on the drain plug either.

I can't tell you all how many times I've dreamt of this moment. 11 years ago I was successfully able to buy back the 1969 Plymouth Barracuda previously owned by my great grandmother, grandfather, and dad.

It had been lost since 1989.

Since recovering the car back in 2014, I have gone through every aspect of the fish and turned it into the baddest hotrod possible - only took 11 years 😅. While I've been recording every step of the way, it was always done with anticipation of this video. The Grand Reveal. I hope you all enjoy the video as much as I did filming it. Its a memory I'll keep for the rest of my life.

The Barracuda is done...

The next video I release will arguably be the most impactful moment of my automotive career. I'm towing my great-grandmother's '69 Barracuda 1300 miles away to conduct it's big reveal to the previous 2 owners - my father and grandfather. The video will likely be ready the first week of December so, stay tuned! I'm so excited to finally make this dream come true! 😁

Here's a sneak peek of the new wheel setup I decided to go with for the big day.

Well, the Barracuda didnt make it back in time for Duct Tape Drags. The guys at the shop were dealing with the same issue pertaining to the brakes. I suspect there may be an issue with the Master Cylinder. I'll get it back Monday and continue to dig into the system if they aren't able to find the source. Now that I've finally caught up on sleep, I guess its time to clean and organize the shop. 😒 0-2 on making it to planned races this year. In January I promised this car would be done by year's end - I'm following through with that promise.

After basically two all-nighters, Im taking the fish to a shop to complete the alignment and bleed the brake system. No amount of coffee or energy drinks can keep me awake at this point. This is my hail mary attempt to still make it to Duct Tape Drags for Saturday! I spent hours chasing leaks and trying to bleed this wilwood setup. Hopefully these guys will be able to get it squared away by the end of today. For now, its time for sleep!

48 hours till Duct Tape Drags begins. Just slammed a fresh cup of coffee, Creed is blasting on the JBL, and the trailer is parked out front waiting. Its go time.
