Restoration Time-Lapse: MOPAR 440 V-8 Engine & Vintage Ford Race Car | Redline Rebuild
Restoration Time-Lapse: MOPAR 440 V-8 Engine & Vintage Ford Race Car | Redline Rebuild
When we first met Snowball Bishop (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L9s6CFUBq3I) and saw his old Ford coupe dirt track racer he had sitting behind his barn, we knew we had to see it back on the track. After some unfortunate delays and a good bit of blood, sweat, and tears, this Chrysler-440-V8-powered race car is back to its former glory. It may be a handful on the corners, but hearing it rip up the track again after a 50-year hiatus is the stuff dreams are made of. Follow along as we give this project our legendary Redline Rebuild time-lapse treatment and show you every single step it takes to completely rebuild a classic Mopar V-8 engine and “restore” the hacked-together Ford coupe Modified it powers.

ПОД ТРАВКОЙ КЛЁВО ИДЁТ
One of the best rebuild videos I have ever seen👍👍👍
I kinda hate how I understood everything that was happening due to rebuilding a 440 Hemi engine in Car Mechanic simulator 2021 lol. Fair play the game recreates the engine very well.
Awesome, JOB WELL DONE
Belo motor linda máquina gostei passeiro tamo junto gostei do vídeo parabéns belo trabalho gostei do motor Bela máquina gostei passeiro tamo junto valeu
Excellent video!
Excellent work that is amazing in its detail and professionalism. Thank you very much for your work. And the way it was filmed deserves special attention. It is very cool! Well done.
GOOD JOB I WHANT TO WORK WETHE YOU
Mopar Engine is Awesome
Como hicieron esos TimeLapse ?
I love complete engine work 👍
I’m more impressed by the animation effect than the restoration
Do you have twin disc 8501 series gearbox and Allison 4700,4800 gearbox for sale? Both old and broken ones are fine!

Kinda looked like Merrit speedway.
Reminds me of watching my dad rebuilding the stock car engine and dropping it in just before raceday as a kid😅
Was one of the valve guides sat slightly proud?!
A Ford car with a Chrysler engine
To me, building a 440 "race" engine but using 906 or 452 heads (instead of aluminum) is like getting married but skipping the honeymoon. Actually, it’s 10x worse. But perhaps the race rules being targeted do not allow that sort of upgrade.
Great, now I need a dirt track racer!
Such a nice engine – wasted in such a crap vehicle
So awesome
This is what you call top tier YouTube video production
Great video! Totally enjoyed the time lapse build but gotta salute the video editor for the animation parts. That must have taken hours for all those parts. Great job.
Too old for mechanic
👌🏻
very good video
At 8:04 my first thought was, “use 51 In honor of doc Hudson”
I have so many questions for those camera tricks with your editor, how can I reach them? Like the bolts and tape moving by itself and stuff
Very crazy ⚡
Forgot to put high temp rtv/pipe dope on the manifold studs, not all the studs had blind holes on the old mopar engines. Awesome video though.
If you’re interested in how much power this engine made, check out this video: https://youtu.be/5HggzAgdNto
Some of you may have noticed that the engine changed a tiny bit from when we were done in the shop to when we were on the track. Well, we made some upgrades and gained some horsepower and torque. Check out the video!
That looks like a blast to drive.
Amazing.
I would go to heaven if I had the money 💰 an 84 notchback, mustang 🐎,, hardtop GT 88 would be my dream car, speed and density, and let this gentlemen 🙏 nothing special just 30 over the stock 302 8.8 rear 355 Auburn Posey, I think it’s a police rear. It was in my 88 blue mustang notchback GT. And it was the truth low 13s all day long, bologna skin tires,😢 yeah I miss it so bad, 😔 now you know why I played the lottery, if I ever hit it he would have to put me on a restrainment, court order cuz I would not leave him alone so badass,. Now you know why I follow you so much,. Old tree man, if you ever come to Maryland, and you need some help dad has a garage truck and trailer, and I can clean up any mess bless you and family 🙏.

That engine belongs in a real car.
Top notch production gentlemen.
Very beautiful and professional work.

Hello my father is really interested in where you got your Engine mount, that allows you to start the engine without it being mounted in an engine bay.
