Exit goes the hood, and when we get back to the pits we find a HUGE problem. The last pass, there were lots of sparks under the car, CAN you guess what the issue is? This torque converter is gonna be super faster out the back for sure, but we for sure are gonna need to get the dump valves on the car to aid in spool up. This small tire no prep car showed some great mph on the radial prep surface, lol. Head on over to turbojohnracing.com to grab some tee shirts, LOL.

It's not a turbo car if it doesn't have a few scratches and dents !!! Means he's racing hard !!!
Love how u explain everything keep up the great work.
Awesome fast!!
There is a limited amount of bearing material on thrust bearings. Is there a way to incorporate a needle Bering? Don't change the starter, its a primitive thrust warning light. Good Idea breaking things all at once.
That really sucks but its all fixable idk about the poor camera
Rescue cam footage was a nice touch
She will be back stronger than ever. 💪💪💪💪😎😎😎😎
Safe Travels!!
Are you guys going to fix the door or you gonna wait to you can’t make a round of racing and lose because of that?
I'll take your old motor I should be able to put a thrust bearing in 🙂
Got to give john props no matter what happens he never loses his cool ,at least on film anyway,I would be cussing and throwing stuff ,I need to take a few lessons from john cause he’s proof bad things can happen to you and u can still be 👍 good job john
Hey John, I’m repairing/upgrading my twin turbo sbc too, it tore up the thrust and crank etc too.
What head gaskets/sealing setup you run on your mustang? Oring/receiver grooves and copper, fuel hoops, mls gaskets etc etc?
Cheers, love the channel content
That Guy in the Grey Truck at the 2:10 mark in the video needs a kick in the nuts, or something else {but you can't promote violence on youtube} I don't care if you are running late to get to the lanes, But doing that sort of speed in the pit area where there are Kids or even disabled people in wheelchairs etc are present is just not on. If I was there with My kids and he did that past my pit stall I would of gone over and had something to say to Him that is for sure. It is people that act like that is the reason a lot of the tracks are getting shut down or the price to enter a race meeting is getting more expensive. because of fools like that insurance etc goes up and if they Hit someone it is the excuse the city needs to shut the place down. Rant over. Anyway thanks for all the Great videos TJ. Cheers.
wore out engine
Look on the bright side, bad luck usually comes in three's, you got it done in one day, the Door, Hood, Engine.
