@@Fahrfrumlosin not the lifepo4 batteries. You’re thinking of the old regular lithium batteries.

@@michaelyoung1901 yep, that’s my boy! Appreciate it and thanks for being here.

@@1SIMONdeGEKKE1 glad you enjoyed it!

Sure did.

@VWJawbreaker Thanks also do I replace the resistor if it had one? Thanks so much your videos help ALOT!

@@danielscrapper8207 the resistor is coil dependent and depending on what Pertronix you’re running, the matching coil shouldn’t need a resistor.

@VWJawbreaker I got the kit today is the magnet supposed to be loose?

@@VWJawbreaker should the magnet be loose on the shaft??

All in personal preference I guess.

Thank you for being here!

Thank you!

@@Sylvan_dB I agree, those old style testers work much better. I did another test later and it showed weak even after a full charge. Being the batter is 5 years old, I’m shocked it’s still going as long as it did.

Thank you sir. Hope you’re having a great weekend 🤙

Woo hoo! Thanks!

She’s been great for the last 4 1/2 years!

​@VWJawbreaker has it been that long 😮 that's a strong motor then🎉

@@BeamNGPlayer007 yep! Built that for jawbreaker in 1-2020 just before I got the Sickxty.

@@klausuhlig7141 I honestly don’t have much experience with the hydraulic setups.

@@VWJawbreaker but I do believe the lifters got a shoulder on the flat side, so they cant just be pulled out from the side,

@@kaug1687 appreciate you sticking around for the video!

@@hummv8 glad you enjoyed it!

I agree, nothing lasts like it use to. It’s sad because all it does is confirm the throw away society theory.

@@ThePOTUSofMatthewEmbryBradshaw I didn’t say this was a how to tune and sync video.

I do not, love East TN though.

That’s a good point Paul. I’ve been running it now for about a month and haven’t noticed any issues in voltage, amperage or temps so far. I’ve been watching both the battery and alternator.

Thank you my dude!

Yeah the older optima’s were better, they went to crap back in the late 2,000’s. I’m shocked I got 5 years out of this one.

I’ve heard about the optima’s going down hill over the years, I got a deal on this one back then so I ran with it. For the price difference between a good agm and this, it’s not that much more honestly. Although with the prices of everything, I’m tempted to go back to horse and buggy but can’t afford that either 😝

@@VWJawbreaker haha wouldn't that be a trip!

Over a month so far and not a single issue. It’s actually been better than the red top when it was new.

Haha, it’ll be my start stand battery now…. Or put it in jawbreaker once it’s on the road.

All batteries will self discharge but at different rates. These will hold a charge better than a lead acid battery. Best to disconnect the battery if it’s going to sit for a long period of time. Also a lithium battery needs a different charger than a lead acid battery if you need to charge it.

Appreciate you being here 🤙

Yes sir, absolutely crazy how little time we get out to them. I remember them lasting much longer years back. Hope all is well on your end my friend.

It’s pretty impressive

Thank you!

It should run well on your build.

I believe it will as well. I plan on selling it eventually as a stock motor and then move on to picking up the Corvair engine a guy has waiting on me to pick up. Next year's project. Can't wait, 6 cylinder air-cooled. Oh, my niece's husband has his 66 up for sale 15,000. wish i could share a picture but it's show car cool. Only reason he is selling it is due to possibly being laid off soon. bummer

Appreciate ya sir.

I’ve been running it now for about a month without issue. Definitely starts faster and the alternator doesn’t have an issue keeping it topped off.

Hey man! Definitely not the typical lead acid battery lol Ever since I brought home jawbreaker I’ve always had a rubber mat over the battery just in case. It’s the simple things that help prevent issues down the road. Hope all is well my friend 🤙

@@kevinhamling1963 do you think a mud guard for a truck cut to fit would work. I have an extra one

@RJLM330 absolutely. I use an old rubber floor mat.

Yes and no. The battery management system won’t allow the battery to charge if it’s too cold. However being in a vehicle where the cab will warm up or even in an engine compartment, you should t have an issue. That’s mostly for people using lithium batteries for solar setups. It would be best to reach out to them and ask their tech support for further information.

I couldn’t agree more…. Ot sucks how much things cost right now. Sure makes life difficult for many. Down here in the heat, most batteries only last 2 years on average, 3 if you’re lucky. I also remember back in the day batteries lasted longer and had better warranties.

Yes sir, checking the grounds was easy since this car is only a year old and everything was and still is new. Battery is an easy fix!

The battery charges just like the other batteries since it has a battery management system integrated into the battery. Your generator or alternator will charge the battery but if you need to use a battery charger you’ll need to get one that does lithium batteries.

@@VWJawbreaker that’s the part I missed about the integrated battery management I’ll need to see if my present ones have that selection.

Thank you sir. As of this comment the battery is $299 which isn’t that much more than an optima battery.

@@rickelder2122 those are bread loaf pans that I cut the handles off of.

@@VWJawbreakerkinda what I thought. Was thinking good for rain.

@@rickyelder2798 absolutely great for the rain and also off road to help keep the mud and dust away from the filters.

@@type4revolutionstudio you’re absolutely right, don’t overfill your case!

@@jamesbloomfield2741 in that car with stock geared trans, if I kept my foot out of it and cruised back roads at 55-60mph I was getting between 24-26mpg. Highway speeds, having a heavy foot and I’d be in the lower 20’s. Taking the time to put an afr gauge in the exhaust and properly tuning the engine, they will get good mpg as long as you don’t go crazy with the engine specs.

@@VWJawbreaker thanks for the fast reply! Now considering the power output and what has been done to the engine that’s almost the same field on me as a standard 1600 lol

@@jamesbloomfield2741 yes sir, she does pretty good! Now that I put this engine in the other car I built, large heavy mud tires, geared different, etc, the same engine is getting 19-20mpg lol

@@travis67vw works better than a regular hex bar imo! Over 4 years without issue on this CSP linkage.

Thank you sir!

@@nixbar6546 I’m not sure what you’re asking, I covered everything I used in the video.

@@charlesloar3210 appreciate it greatly.

@@trevcessna1723 glad you enjoyed it! Appreciate you being here.

@@greenlabelseries if it’s when you’re floored and under higher rpm, that’ll be the main jet being too small. If it stutters and then goes away, that could be the accelerator adjustment

@@VWJawbreakerthank you! I’d check out on my side

@@Urge38 why confuse people? Plus, what’s the difference?

@@iommiSGblack my favorite distributor!

@@Endfloat that is a great advantage of a t4 engine!

@@calescapee9642 the theme of this build is, spare parts build. I didn’t have one on the shelf and buying one defeats the purpose.
