Yee yee back to back vids 🇺🇸
build a Hot-V for Ruby, with the Turbo Right on the Engine!!
@Unknown plenty a places to be a dick on the web now a days seems like you could use your time doing something else. All of your 52 comments on this page have been Nothing but shit talking these guys if you dont like what they do go to a page you do pretty simple solution.
Glad she Was ok.
Hey cleet my brothers work for a forklift company called alliance he said he’ll work on your forklift “if needed” for free not through the company
@jrspeed_ 9312 Like in every other way, they'll learn the hard way. Hope their life insurance is paid up. The worst fatal forklift accident I ever investigated was also the the simplest.
*_Actually the first time I've ever seen a corvette beat a supra. LOL_*
I feel like when the car shoots up flames when it’s not suppose to is just BAD (i’m not an expert but I think a car doesn’t shoot flames that high when it’s fast it’s because... it’s more lean that quick?)
Take a forklift safety course or read up on safety. I've seen people get really hurt who didn't operate safely. Rule 1...SEATBELT. That thing is probably 8 to 10k pounds, if it tips over on you, your done. Happens every day
Give it a little while... their gonna rebuild it drop a couple tubos on it and take it to the track. Fasted Forklift on record
Up Next play LS swap’s the forklift
That was some serous shit from Ruby! James gappin' Toyotas all night long. Impressive.
Why is it whenever I see that guy I think Jack Nicolson in the Shining!
Turbo the Hyster
Twin Turbo LSX in the fork lift? Ya know you wanna.....
Hottest coolant in the engine is trapped behind the thermostat, exits through the front of the intake after cooling the cylinder heads, if the wrong gasket, or water pump (clockwise/counter clockwise) if less than 50/50 coolant to water ratio, in conjunction with a low pressure radiator/expansion tank/de-gassing chamber/cap, anything under 14 lbs, the boiling point temperature is reduced exponentially before it reaches the temp sensor, if no thermostat is used, and if the water pump rpm spins too high, cavitation will occur, possibly going undetected by system sensors during short passes. Does the engine have spigots that squirt oil to cool the bottoms of the pistons? What type of intercooler are you running? Just putting it all out there.
I too do not yield for Prius.
I think a head gasket was a fair price to pay to see James put the smack down on that Supra at the tree. Hell yeah!
That forklift has a vortec... it needs a turbo...
Race it, blow it up, fix it, repeat.
James and the no lift life in the forklift 😂
Boost the lift boost the lift boost the lift...
"Should we stop... ah it's a Prius" LOL
Yeah, turbo that fork lift
Convictions and jail for the demo/commie pukes, right and the sun shall rise in the west.. Our judicial system is too corrupt to take down any of the heavyweights..
There needs to be a forklift DYNO video.
Hey Cleetus, Been watching you guys for a while and just subscribed last night!! I have a question about turbo'd cars. What oil do you guys run? I bought my first turbskie car and I need to change the oil and want to run a good one. Any information is great appreciated!! Btw love the work you guys do and by far the best FIworld video I've seen!!!
Ruby Rue is fine it will Pan out to the top of the 🌲
You smoked that supra 😂😂🤣👀👀
Not sure if this has been said but why not just go twin turbos haha
If y’all didn’t blow a motor or a head gasket or a trans would this channel really be what it is today ? 😂😂
Split the turbo right over the top of the engine in the middle!!
Coming up next.... Fork truck drag racing.
Who do you guys talk to at TSP? I called to see what the best cam for my build is and he made it seem like I was inconveniencing him. And I still don't know what cam to get! 👎
How about doing some Flow Bench testing on the new manifold? Not saying turn into Engine Masters on us, but some science and reliability might be fun for everyone...on BOTH sides of the camera.
Cleet! We can’t hear the audio when someone is speaking at the camera, it’s fine to hear the camera operator and the cars but anything else is a stretch.
I know my neighbors used sheet metal gaskets. They would disassembly it and keep the number of layers they needed. I don't know what it would do to aluminium block and head though.
I could listen to James talk all day
Forklift + Rotary. Done.
Def switch to a multi layer steel gasket.
I love cleetus, but I think James is my favorite
If I remember I think Ruby has done something that has been elusive to leroy beating a supra
why don't you guys run a MLS head gasket?
Mill the same amount off the other head too, James is a freak on the 🌳
She's A solid Unit lol..
Hey Cleet, I love watching your stuff and I was hoping you could make one improvement on audio. James has a lot of knowledge to share and he’s quite soft spoken and it’s often hard to hear him. Would you consider getting him a mic?
Forklift 1/4 mile
I feel like james should own Ruby
Track days 👍👌 fiworld.info/goon/m2y0mIyt0pareqM/videot.html
Awesomeness
Cleet has true mechanical sympathy for that old fork lift
Na i dont think its hard to start because of a mechanical pump, they don't have pumps the tanks pressurized theirs a vacuum shutoff tho that takes forever to open up
Forklift needs electric turbo & straight pipe...
500hp forklift?????
Shouldn’t hurt the fork lift running hard... you shouldn’t bought it then. All the money you waste and bitching about having to fix a forklift...., you cry so much.
Put a supercharger on the forklift
good ol' hyster!!! i agree with the forklift driver. them Toyota's suck... the hyster's are power house's
anytime you drive a forklift any extended distance... you should be driving in reverse.............. just sayin'..........
Hyster is a good unit we got one that runs circles around our toyota
New t-shirt idea: front side has an artful logo "R/T: 0.004" and some kind of cleetus logo, backside is inkscreen of Ruby's rear end and the quote "How 'em lights look?"
Its runnin right dude!!! Lol
McFarland fabs needs to turbo the forklift
Cathedrial port? Wtf
Get some metal head gaskets
Hey Cleets should get the boosted boys on a project with you and turbo the forklift lol
Great! Now we get to see them turbo a forklift...LoL. "We can unload a truck in 8 seconds!!"!
Yeah
"427" ))
those are fun forktrucks go full speed in reverse then put her in drive. we had awesome burnout compations at work lol
F**k it 2jz swap the forklift!!!! Do it for Paul walker!!!! 🤘🏼
That reaction though.
That’s a lot of hours on a fork truck
Straight pipe the forklift
When you start the Hyster, give it full throttle and slowly lift your foot as you crank it and it’ll fire right up
I’m literally in the market for an old forklift for my new shop so I can appreciate the appreciation for it. 🤙🏻 nice unit.
Big timer purchases from old Cleet. That youtube salary doe
just a heads up on your forklift. i worked for toyota industrial for a couple years as a mobile tech. warehouses run forklifts at full throttle 85% of the time. a few run them 16 hours a day. just change the oil every 200 hours of use, blow out your air filter and radiator with compressed air weekly. check the spark plugs/cap/rotor every oil change and for the love of god, keep your fittings greased and chains oil'd. used motor oil lightly brushed on the chains or a good thick spray chain lube both work great.
Great job guys. Keep it up
9:17 new project on the rack
It's been there for a while. James is building a drift car.
I loved Cleetus's description of a surfacing a head, "they use a milling machine and mill it flat again". IF only it was that simple lol.
"Do a doughnut in the forklift!" :D Actually leaves a circle of rubber... :O
James knowledge is insane.
That glass trick is something i've never considered. That's a great idea and i think Jame's needs a "tips & tricks" segment
Thanks Cleetus for confirming that Prius hate exists.
Worked on one of those about 20 years ago. Discovered it was a Chrysler 225 slant 6 set up to run LP. Pretty cool.
But seriously,get OSHA cert'ed. As a Forklift operator @ Valencia College, they can be dangerous, a light bump with something can be devastating to property, I've seen what inexperienced operators have done. Be safe Cleet Crew
Damn that sucks. She'll be back stronger for sure. I know your a Chevy guy how did you like that 2020 GT500 you reviewed? I just got one and started a page check it out 🤘
cannot believe that you are not running Cometic gaskets.
You guys using a fabric head gasket for this kind of power and getting surprised it gets blown? My '98 diesel uses a multi-layer-metal head gasket from the factory for 110hp ffs... I'm sure you could get something like that for Ruby...
looks like that forklift needs an engine clean likely a tune up/oil change/air filter
Turbo
Don't understand why you don't just get 500$ head gaskets already
James looks like trevor from gtav lol
we've got mitsu forklifts at work with 4g6e's in them lol.
All the LS guys talking about subaru headgaskets real quiet rn
Hey try grounding the engine in the front on the head that should help keep your pistons cleaner
Get some
Put the forklift on the dyno
You should Sea Foam Ruby’s engine to get rid of the carbon.
We need a .004 James Bond shirt
I say 2 weeks before the forklift gets a turbski!!!
You need 1/2 inch head studs
That smoke was just build from 19 years of being babied James just cleaned it out thats all ...mint
When u mill one head, do u need to mill both?
copper gasket?
What does Cooper actually do? Never seen him do anything but occasionally hold the camera. He must be really damn good at ordering pizza.
I agree - coop seems to open packages but not much else
