"Chuck and his guest mechanic will take on a motor swap on Horsepower TV’s Hot Rod Honda project car. They’ll jerk the stock motor and replace it with a more powerful V-tech engine, along with a new camshaft, header and performance clutch. Finally, they’ll measure their work on the shop’s Dynojet."

V-tech.......

They are so dumb, who cares about the dyno. I wanna see this rice at the track beating some stock GTO or other over hyped muscle car.

leprechaun117

did it annoy anyone else that they kept saying twin cam, not dual?? maybe im just being picky, but if there trying to market the show toi honda people, shouldnt they use the right terms??

Patrick

They are domestic guys and dont know crap about import engines, so its no wonder they cant get the terms right. This is why these dumb domestic guys need to just stay away from imports, they just dont get it.

I saw I think most of it, my brother woke me up so I just saw like the last part of them putting the axles, shiftlinkage on, and then dynoing it. If I remember correctly it made about 170 hp or something like that. But the car was ugly as sin, and the gsr motor they put in was dirty as hell. It was still phat to see something like that on TV though. IMO

Not to sound like a dumbass, but I can't find what channel this will be on
Is it TNN --> Country tv station?

If not please let me know. A friend has TIVO or whatever that $hit is and I will have her record it for me

Scratch that above! I see on the site it's TNN ....Can't wait to see this since my GSR swap will be here in about a week

BTW >>> chrome wheels, graphics got to go! ...and they should of used a hatch

I'm watching it right now... I'll tape it when it comes back on tomorrow.

All you need for a good engine swap is a Helms manual, and a semi-functional brain.

MilanoRex

Some tools would be nice too.

Kickboxer 2 on right now here

Fuster_Cluck

Just watched it

Best of all. My father who has been nagging about the swap and saying I need to pay someone who knows what they are doing. He watched the entire show and said it shouldn't be that hard at all.

Got to head to my girl's house to see if it got recorded on the vcr.

BTW >>> That car was RICE!
