40. Drivetrain Upgrade
Sure, three and four speed transmissions are fine for some folks, but for diehard old school hot rod guys, nothing beats a five or six speed manual shift overdrive conversion. As Willie and Kevin know all too well, there are tons of considerations and complications involved in the process. Enter Bruce Couture, whose Modern DriveLine is a one-stop shop where everything you need “just about jumps out of the box and into the car!”
39. The Do-It-Right Paint Show
Dreaming about a flossy and glossy new paint job for your wheels at an affordable price? Kevin and Willie lead you through the do-it-right process from start to finish – from prepping for paint by Dustless Blasting existing components; to setting up your own inflatable Mobile Environmental Solutions paint booth; through selecting and applying the optimal Dupli-Color paint product to bring your dream to life.
38. The Third Pedal
For Kevin and Willie, driving is all about the fun factor, and that means throwing gears – we’re talking huge left thigh, major heel-toe clutch action. More discs = more torque, and that means twin, triple and now even quad disc clutches. On this episode, Geoff Gerko of Mantic Clutch exposes surprising ways clutches are wrecked, and reveals best practices for preserving them.
