I'm building my cat my way - love the car - want a widebody, but don't want to lose my A$$ on trade in value - I'm doing a few videos of it - go easy on me 'cause I'm new

check out my first video

I'd love some feedback and what you guys want to see

Nothing personal, but I'm way beyond sick of all these click-bait videos on YouTube.

LOL - totally understand - anything you’d rather see? So far I’ve done 15” wheel conversions front and rear, demon trans, demon converter, demon springs, Interchiller system, Barth kit, custom suspension mods (I actually make custom toe links that some of the fastest guys in the country use)
I’ll be installing a rear cradle lock out kit -

I do appreciate the feedback - just trying to put something useful and fun out there for our cars

How else are people supposed to pay for their mods/cars/false lifestyles?

I am going to pass on this, OP.

actually the trans was rebuild and we loaded demon software - you are right the 2 trans are virtually identical - mines just running some tighter tolerances and different pressures along with additional clutches etc - with a demon converter

I’m aware of the work you’re doing and some of the things you are finding out with my friend

Be sure to weigh them fenders for me
we’ll see - the stockers are super light as it is - also the hood is extremely light as well - not much benefit going with carbon fiber

Flip the phone sideways, it will play full screen that way when you upload it to youtube.

So I placed an order for the complete wide body parts set for my 2017 Challenger around October of last year, and it was rejected because some parts were supposedly Demon only.
Has this changed?

I try to watch Hellcat videos on YouTube. 95% of them are total click bait, or the guy has no clue, or does really chitty work. Speedy has the ONLY consistently great content that I can not only watch all the way thru, but also a few times over.
