I saw the last video, the blower on the Hellcat is absolutely fried. I was able to get a star last night after taking the belt off the blower and been frantically looking for another one. Luckily, my boys at shop Hellcats always come through and they have a use 3.0 or 3.8 liter Whipple Gen 5. So I'm going to go down and pick that up. I was going to have my cousin drive it up but he couldn't make it because he's a true duty. So I got a call from my boy Chad who you guys have seen in the videos. It's the off the limiter, right? He was like do you want to go flying today? And I was like as a matter of fact, why don't we make the 30 minute flight down to Fort Myers to go pick these parts up. So Chad and I are mean at the airport right now. We are about to fly to Fort Myers to go pick up this Whipple Supercharger. You've seen me fly this plane before. This is the Piper Warrior that I actually got my airplane single engine land private pilot license in. I already have my private pilot license from rotocraft helicopters. But this is the one that I've spent a lot of time in. This is also the bird that Chad is currently working on his private pilot license. I'm going to be acting as pilot in command today since I have my private pilot license and he does not and I am not an instructor so that I cannot allow him to use the controls legally. I did my rock around. He's completely full of fuel. It's absolutely dialed in. Just a perfect bird for ripping down a Fort Myers and back. Chad you know why we're doing this right? Because you redlined the hot guy for so long. I could have talked about it in your carpelle part. That's it happened. You ruined my alcat. I have to spend all this money to fix it. I offered 700 bucks. I'm going to have to pay an hour or 19 minutes away. I'm going to bring up 100 knots and we're going to need 8 knots. We've got about 12 knots. It's breaking right along. Quite time there. Yeah, it's about 4. Solid 40 minutes on the way here but we had a 20 knot headwind so hopefully we'll be able to haul butt back to Venice. Oh, please, Zach. Look at that thing. My boy knows how to show up in style. Thanks for coming out, man. I appreciate you making it happen. Look at us just goofing with our toys. That is blue. It's very blue. Did you paint that? I wish I said I could. Well, it's a used blower guys. It came off the car. The customer painted it blue but Zach can always make it happen with parts so we're just going to send it out. This thing is a lot bigger than I thought it would be. Yeah, it will fit. You don't have to clear it. You don't have to do anything. It's actually shorter height wise than the 4.5 so you'll be good. This is a 3-liter. 3-liter? Yeah, so this is a gent 5-wipple. People say these 3-liter can really put down some air. Oh, right. Well, the 4.5s take a lot more front but clearly not with you. But yeah, you'll be happy with this. You got a whole bunch of parts for me too, man. All right. A lot of bodywines, fuel rail, all of it. Nice. My dog. All right, let me get you some cash. We'll get her loaded up in the airplane. Head back to Venice. Oh, is there a poly or should I just use my poly? Yeah, like two pops, two of the bottoms. Are there any weird tools that any of you are interested in? You shouldn't need anything. It should be exactly the same as the sock block. It's not light. Yeah. Yeah. We're going over our times right now. We're going for two hours exactly. So we think we saved about 10 minutes. No, it's an hour and a half down and an hour and a half back. Yeah, probably a traffic in the... Probably a traffic in Russia. And you would have stuck there at least 30 minutes. Yeah, talking about cars. Talking shop. Well, we're good. I mean, that had that tailwind coming back. We were doing like 135 knots and our airspeed was like... What? 106. So we had like 25 knot tailwind, which was prime for you know. That sucked on the way there though. Current situation. It is Monday night and I got to start diving into this car because I know there's going to be parts that I need to order. And like I've told you guys before, we have an event this weekend we got to get the car up and running for. There's some nuances that are different from other halcats because this car is running on a holly dominator. So I know there's something with the map sensor, the fuel lines, the intercooler lines. And I'm probably going to have to get some adapters since I'm going from a gen 4 to a gen 5 Whipple. Obviously this is going to be a 4.5 liter. I've got the 3.0 in the back of my truck and freedom blue. But the first step is going to be pulling this off. So I think what I'm going to do first is take the hood off the car. That way I get some better lighting, see what I can do. And then I already started disconnecting some fuel lines. And we'll just cut to some action here. I'll make sure you do a double half hitch on there, you know. It's really good. It's a surgeon's knot. Guys, check out these beefy ropes we're going to use to pull the supercharger up. These ropes are from Outwood rope manufacturers. It's Roman Outwood's brother who went to rope company. And he sent me a box of this stuff and we're putting it to you. So this is top notch quality stuff. Yep, you're good. You can keep going. Hold on, hold on, hold on. Get some water leaking back here. Sorry. It's staying out of the cylinder. The wrench is at the top there. Yep. Looking good. Just some water. It's still leaking. That plug came out. It's just fine. I just need to mark it so I know to plug it back in. Is that you look to the other one in there? Yeah, I'm going to start with that. Good rate of descent right there. These things are not like... Look at that. All in about what? 10 minutes of work? Your fingers in the way. Yeah. Any of them like right here? Alright, I'm about to pull this blower off for the first time. I haven't seen it yet since the damage occurred. Uh-huh. Looking like we have some metal contacting right here. There's like some metal shavings in here. And then on here, the here are cooler brick. Looks like there's some chunks in metal on here. Oh, look at all this right here. Let me see. We have metal chunks. That is a no-bloy no for a blower. I can't have metal coming out of here. It literally completely seized up. I can't even rotate it with my hand. So... I'm the muscle. I mean, I'm the... Look at all of it. Let's get this blower in the car here. Fargu, you sure you don't want to lift it? Yeah, don't get close to me, guys. I have one white. Got this freedom blue blower. Alright. I'll let's heavy. It is not light. I'll tell you that. I'll use pure muscle. Now you're starting to aqua-cage. Gear up. I can't even run up in here. You're going to hear it yourself. I don't remember doing this. Not my train for moments like this. Yeah. Look at the beauty of that thing in here. I don't know. I was a little hesitant about the blue, but... You got that, then? Yeah, I got it. I got it. Let her down. Oh, shoot. Parker. Oh, I see it. I see it. Back to the drawing board. This is going to have to move here. Yeah, it's hitting that power steering reservoir right there. Can you show me again? Right here. It's hitting that. It's going to have to be moved. Yes, it is. You're going to have to get a new tank for that. Probably the stock one, I'll would assume. But that thing looks huge in there. The blue is kind of wild. Yeah. All right, guys. Well, that wraps it up for today's episode. I'm going to edit this video. Go to the gym. Get some sleep. And tackle this again tomorrow.
