Could anyone else smell the permatex?
Please don’t use the palm of your hand as a hammer Scotty.
I did for years and had to have carpal tunnel surgery on both hands. Which is no fun at all…
Looking forward to Drag Challenge…
I'm waiting on Scotty to release a book with all his sexual innuendos
Supermang has inspired my next Summernats build.
Going to bring one of my VNs home from the farm and drop a L67 in it.
Be a good, cheap and quick little project, and my sons are hassling me to enter a car so they can camp there for the entire event.
I paid $1400 for a factory V8 VN Berlina about 7 years ago. Gave it a rebuilt engine, injectors, tune and exhaust and it still only owes me only $3500. $20k obo lol
?? The 3.8L v6 came out in the VN, not the VS.
Thanks for another great video Scott, and Matt behind the camera. It was pretty hot down there in Melbourne Thanks for your time and effort on the supermang,! Can’t wait for Dragchallenge
Surley install a ratchet in the supermang, and also where are the lexcen and Torana updates!!!
And dont forget about what they call german virgins !!! Itsnicentight
In an effort to cool the supercharger on a previous car of mine I ran a snow performance water meth kit. Super easy, solid and reasonable $. My roots blower was a condensed mess on the dyno.
Super low iat's and the extra Ron bump from the methanol landed me an extra 48whp.
K24 cl9 accord euro for comparison.
Buy a kit !!
Pretty sure Mace engineering sell a different intake tube for the back of the supercharger, which isnt squashed for clearance like the factory one. With how serious the supermang is getting it might be worth getting one and worth some HP!
Scotty, when pressing a shaft into a bearing correct practice is to support the inner race not the outer, anyway you got it done so good job.
I don't know why i couldn't be serious this time and had to laugh instead
(That's what she said)
17:30 "a reversal of the process"
Should apply for a job writing Haynes manuals Scotty
The big socket you bought meant you put load on the bearing. That's how you pit and damage bearing. You actually want a piece of tube the exact size of inner race of bearing that the shaft moves through easily.
Oils aint oils, and 3d prints aint 3d prints. There is a lot goes into making it come out right.
Would it not have been easier to just push out the bearing and let the bearing push the seal?
Not that you need my approval, but nice job on rebuilding the snout. It was a good reference video done right for anyone playing along at home.
I don't know what the old oil looked like but I would have been real tempted to reuse it (considering the cost of the oil) if it didn't look too bad. I mean you have swapped it so many times it could hardly be old.
Put the 2.55" thats why u got the intercooler right ?
8 psi is a waste of time.
I've got a dash surround if you need one but I need a VN Berlina printed circuit for the dash cluster…What are you going to do with your one Scotty.?
Like it. Best of luck at drag challenge.
Good work Scotty I could be you tube mechanic and comment on different ways to do the job but ill leave that to the keyboard warriors in there Mums basment.
