I can really appreciate the fact that they did a whole engine swap, start up, dyno sesh, and track time in one video! Other channels would stretch that out into like 5 videos.
-
Props to the video editors. They took what probably was chaos and hours of footage over the course of a few days and made it into a coherent story filled with humor, drama, and passion.
-
I’m 37 years old. And life happened. The dream I had as working on cars had dwindled to nothing after having kids, a career, a marriage. But you guys have reignited the excitement for me once again. I salute you all. Great content!
-
As a non car educated fellow, seeing these cars being torn apart caused much anxiety as I imagined being tasked to put it back together and expecting it to work. Much respect to you guys who possess such knowledge and skill.
-
The amount of investment, know-how, time, energy, and knowledge of tools and parts needed for a project like this successfully is insane, you gotta respect anyone who is willing to do this for a hobby
-
Finally Hi-Low series is back after Jeremiah tease us with some study on why the Low-car engine blew up on the race day, and yet the Low-car team, with the car... never disappoints in surprising anyone who doubts them. Love the series!
-
Nolan screaming when he got the car started was so wholesome. That is the purest form of emotion right there.
-
The fact that James starts this video completely clean shaven and has a decent beard at the end is telling is story within the story.
-
Nolan was the highlight of this episode. It was really fun to see how happy he was from the moment the engine started to the end at the track.
-
I love the fact that I didn't have to wait 6 episodes over the course of 6 months to see the swaps complete. Love the video!
-
You could tell by that reaction at 26:32, Nolan did NOT think their car was gonna start 😂 Great work to the entire team for putting a video like this together
-
Nolan’s high five to Adam’s fist bump at 26:43 can’t go unspoken
-
Nolan's reaction to his engine starting up is absolutely priceless. The genuine pride he had for accomplishing such a hard task. Also impressed lo-car was faster for such a heavy & low powered V8. Can't wait for the next video
-
Nolan high fiving adams fist bump perfectly describes low team’s difficulties😂
-
I think the best experiences are the ones we learn from and the best adventures are definitely the ones that don’t go as planned. Great video 👍🏽
-
What a video. The amount of work that went into this on so many levels. There is no mainstream channel or show doing this much for their audience.
-
The whole scene of Nolan starting his car was amazing. 🤣 James flinching when he blipped it, the over excited pelvic thrusts, the awkward high five/fist bump, amazing.
-
Dude, 26:44 Nolan, we've all felt that before and it's an incredible feeling! Everyone watching smiled with you man!
-
Man Nolan’s excitement for when lo car fired up!! Felt that when I did a engine swap on my older Mercedes. No one had done what I was attempting and there are no aftermarket parts. When that thing fired up on the 2nd crank I was absolutely joyful. Also a manual swap and man feeling the slick gear changes as I’m feeling out the new motor was a wonderful feeling, especially as you realize everything is working like factory and no bad smells or warning lights!
-
You guys are awesome! I’m sure this was loads of fun to pull off. Had a blast watching along.
