My dad and I installed my E-force the other weekend and took some video of just a quick step by step guide. It's not super detailed but you can see how some things route and mount etc and you get to see my ass crack lol.

Enjoy..hopefully not my ass.. thanks dad.

LOL

Say no to crack! Awesome video. I bet that was fun with your dad. I hope to maybe bring my SS once I get upgrade to Indy for my dad to help with my SC install. Should be a bounding experience no?

Good job. Thanks for the video.

Nice vid !! good to see a dad and son doing things together

Oxtar41 · 02-24-2011, 11:56 AM

I live in central WI and he lives in chicago so he came up for the weekend and my boss let us use his shopt. The old man is a ASe certified master tech and GM journeyman tech. and im a technician as well it was a good time, took both of us about 9 hours with video and pics. It was a blast.

"It's always easier just to remove the battery cable than it is to put the fire out from under the hood. Makes life a little easier."

The commentary is hilarious. Great vid.

Sounded like you had fun on the vid... Good to see!!! My 11 yr old son is helping me on my cars now as well.... he'e pretty handy with a wrench. At 11 he can do an intake and carb swap on a sbc 350 in my 79 z28 and I have him working on the mopar 440 as well. I just point to it and say swap those and he does it... remembers better than I do as well

vid needs to be a sticky...

awesome video...... Thanks for making and sharing.......few questions ..... did you have the flywheel J tool....if not what did you use..... The drilling portion ..... did you utilize a rt angle drill ?...any tips?...... Any other parts of instructions that you felt vague yet your install could clarify?...

Thanks

Oxtar41 · 02-26-2011, 10:32 AM

I didnt have the fly wheel tool just used a half inch impact to buzz the bolt out (never install with an impact always use a torque wrench). To tighten it we just put it in 4th gear and held the brakes down to keep the engine from turning over. I have a 700 dollar digital snap-on torque wrench that does degrees and ft/lbs (and everything under the sun) that i used to make sure the bolt was torqued right. IF I remember right it was like 38ft/lbs then 140 degrees to torque it right.

Im sure there are better ways but it worked and nothing got damaged. We used a right angle air drill, IMO the hardest part of the install was drilling the hole but with the right tools it wasnt bad at all. everything else was straight forward the instructions were 99% flawless.
