One angle, the company making the kit had documented all changes needed, BUT before releasing it, they had a nice discussion with a lawyer. Lawyer told them that if they ship the instructions on where to cut into the chassis they were told that if anyone crashes a car modified within their instructions and gets injured, the company could be found liable for damages. So just to limit liability, they will not instruct anyone on how to cut&modify chassis or any other system. EDIT: fixed a typo Just thinking…

Yeah man I read a Porsche Cayman LS swap blog. Renegade treated him the same way. Appeared to be not much more that an adapter that mated the motor and gearbox and that was it. He had to figure out almost everything on his own. I say best not to mess with German engineering. Those guys dedicate their entire careers to getting one model of car perfect. Its not a little side project. I always snicker when I hear some young buck talking about "dropping a different motor in". Let them learn the hard way and makes for a good story.

Watching the "old" Wizard stare in the camera like a deer in the headlights is so hilarious.

The dumbest automotive channel in all of KZread, with the smartest automotive mechanic in all of KZread, and one of the most legendary builds between the two. Gold content indeed. Huge respect to Tyler and Weeeeeezard.

Aww hell yeah Wizard in the house!! Or castle or wherever Wizards live.

The car wizard is just an absolutely amazing human. Say what you want about Tyler but the man's brings his friends with him and man am I glad about it!!

Good old Apollo. What a great build and probably one of the best examples of buying a "kit" and what that usually means.

Apollo 911 put both of them on the map. Good thing Wizard got past the understandable frustration. He is now one of the most famous mechanics on KZread and his shop is bursting with business. And he has one of the 9 spin off channels Tyler has facilitated for his friends and neighbors. Wizard is a key star in the Hoovie franchise, but it is Tyler who made this thing the success it is today.

I don't normally watch VinWiki, but when I see the Wizard, I watch

This has to be one of my fav car stories! I was so psyched when Hoovie and the Car Wizard decided to build this car. The Wizard busted his butt to get the car together, only for it to fail shortly after. I didn't think it was bad press for the Wizard though... he took a half-arsed conversion kit, and made it work in short order with no instructions. I am glad Hoovie bought it back, and that the Wizard agreed to work on it again... hopefully it will continue to live on.

You just realise how bad Hoovie needs this guy. I ran the Corvette C7 testing pool and we had so many dumb dumbs in senior management who behaved like Tyler and we were constantly fixing the shit they created 😅

Dave as a mechanic to another Mechanic I value and respect your expertise and sometimes I get the youtube craziness with some of Tylers project vehicles, I watch your channel and I get what it takes to complete theses projects , out here in mechanic world we mechanics have nothing but the greatest respect for your skills and expertise , Keep up the great work that you do!!!

I've never held Hoovers idiocy against you. You're a fantastic wrencher.

Unfortunate that Tyler didn't mention the 2nd track day, but he probably thought it was good, because when it leaves the Car Wizard, it IS good. Blame it on the kit engineering or lack thereof. No doubt this time around he probably could track it and it will be awesome. So glad you didn't just kick him out of your shop after that blown LS.

Oh I don't think the Wizard or Omega had much fault in the failure that was Apollo 911. The kit wasn't up to snuff. Had you known more about the kit OR had a little more time to measure and figure things out you might of got it right the first time, maybe you wouldn't of. Best case you could of become the expert in stuffing Chevy V8's into Porsche 911s> I don't know that that is a particular valuable skill set. I suppose you could of then , or could now do a series of KZread videos on LS swaping a 911 and even offer merchandise to facilitate others in doing so to recover some of you costs. The cardboard template for trimming the back of you 911 to gain serpentine belt clearance could be a potential best seller! The custom backwards baffle oil pan to prevent oil starvation might be a high grossing item for Omega.

I can still see the wizard... starring... deeply into my soul... that memory will never leave me.

Been waiting for this!! Go Car Wizard!!

I had similar experiences as an industrial maintenance supervisor. One time I was involved in replacing a steam tube dryer with a direct fired gas dryer. Our Genius Corporate Director of Engineering can't find a burner he likes for the dryer so he has one built. Prior to buying the dryer or designing the burner he comes down to our plant and spends about a week wandering around that part of the plant with one of our maintenance guys, a steel tape measure and a note pad. Six months later the dryer comes in, about a week later the burner shows up. We mate the dryer and burner and the construction foreman gets a very worried look on his face, grabs a tape measure and runs into the dryer room. Yep distance to the bottom of the roof trusses from the floor10'4", height of the dryer/burner 10'6" and we still have to insulate it. We call the Genius Engineer, his reply "well put the dryer between the trusses" but Mr. Genius Engineer the trusses run across the room, if we rotate the dryer 90 degrees to fit between the trusses neither the feed conveyor or the discharge conveyer will line up AND we'll have to move the Hydrolyzer that feeds the dryer. His answer "well then figure something out" click. Yep idiots among us. In the next job I had we had "breakaway" doors so when you hit them with the truck things pop out and some consumable parts break. Notice I said "when you hit them with a truck" instead of "If you hit them with a truck" Well after a few years of trying they find a way to hit the door that breaks stuff that shouldn't be broken. It's the middle of November in Northern Wisconsin and some folks are getting a little worried that if the door doesn't get fixed soon some things are going to get very cold, especially some things that don't do well when they get cold. A replacement door identical to what was destroyed would be 12-16 weeks (or about the time things start warming up outside). Another vendor comes in and shows me a brochure for a break away door, on the cover it shows a darn train driving through the door and the six easy steps you do to recover from oh say a train driving through your overhead door. Best part- 2-3 weeks and they can have the door in and operating. I order the darn thing. Of course operations is beating the snot out of me because it's November and the got no freaking door, environmental compliance is beating me bloody because a functioning door is part of our permit to operate. The door comes in, I'm pretty excited, they show up the next day to install it, operations bitches because the bay is down while we install the door. It's done, hurray, it works, they even give me a dam warranty card! The owner shows up, he's a little upset because the new door is orange, seems as well as being the owner he is also the corporate ascetics director, the other door was 12-16 weeks because it was beige, he really really likes beige. I calm him down, I mean it's on the back side of the plant so it's not like you can see it from the road right? And it's ORANGE like so maybe they'll SEE it it and NOT hit it right? I Jokingly I say as I leave work that night "maybe we should start a pool on how long it goes before operations messes it up". I come into work the next morning at 6AM. Yes it seems we should of started a pool and someone should of choose 8 hours and 32 minutes to kill our new train proof door. Seems if you drive a dump truck into our new $10,832 door but you leave the dump body UP you can destroy the $10,832 door and three rows of the masonry block the door was attached to. Maybe they should of made the inside orange to? Fleet did however call me to inform me not to worry as the truck was alright.

Now I don't feel bad about him charging money to Tyler and buying 3 boats...... It's like watching Tyler's stories from Upside Down / the other side of it....
