If you watch that episode again you would notice the mask wearing was hit & miss.

There was one time in particular where the guy working on the front suspension wasn't wearing a mask. They cutaway to the person he was talking to and when they came back "voila", he was wearing a mask.

It was fun watching 5 guys who are car guys struggle to put the engine in. If you watch it again watch them try to walk the headers in with the engine to funny.

If they had a small block Pontiac they would of had an easier time installing the headers...Oh my, they did have a small block 350. I wonder if Big Block Joe knew that.

I would love to work with these guys trading barbs back and forth. I swear if I ever saw Joe I would call him Big Block Joe.

A little slight on Pontiacs by saying he really wanted a Camaro...

I wondered why they put a 9" in the car? Right gearing,ease of disc brakes etc. Must have been planned way in advance. The carbs, the edelbrock do not seem as good as the qjet. I have used qjets for 20 plus yrs. Now with Cliff and his good parts it's easy and cost effective.

Love my q-jets. Cliff's book 'learned' me a lot.
With the continual and intentional 'big block Pontiac' and 'quadrajunk' comments, he sounds like a guy who lives by the old adage, 'Ignorance is bliss'.

I just watched off my DVR. The car looked great when done. If they had dyed and mixed and matched blue interior pieces, it would have been a mess. The black interior and the wheels with the black details really made it a nice car.
