​​@@Calvin-Nelsonstill no word, no hints or dead ends? Man im really praying you get it back and in a condition you can put it back together. Hopefully they dont cut it up and maybe just pull the drivetrain and electronics-the things that can be replaced as i would think only the body is the sentimental unreplaceable part. You would think even scum theives would understand the sentimentality of it and just wipe the body down(untraceable to them) and leave it somewhere to be found. I have a question if you see this as yall have a lot of experience with stock LS, the 216 casting crank have yall noticed a drill pattern on the counterweights that differentiate the gen 4- 5.3, 6.0, 6.2? Out of the few i have atm the 6L on the front counterweight turning clockwise the leading edge has a small hole followed by a larger hole then about three quarters of the way toward the trailing edge another small hole. The 5.3 has a small hole near the leading edge and then over towards the trailing edge a small hole followed by a large hole. The rear ctw is drilled similar on both. The front and rear rod throws or pins(front side of front throw, rear side of rear throw) are gun drilled deeper on the 6L so i question if the larger displacements(heavier bobweights) have more weight removed from the pin by drilling deeper to help lessen the counterweight needed for the heavier bobweights. This was gen 4 stuff with the heavier rods, my gen 3 stuff is drilled different. If anybody reading this has any knowledge on this please leave a comment here to help me figure this out.

Thanks. Honestly I feel nothing but sadness towards the thieves. For them to commit the crimes, they probably don't have a lot of love in their life. They should be punished for their crimes, but that's not my responsibility.

@@Calvin-Nelson - I had the same truck. (99 F350 7.3) It was stolen too, along with a whole bunch more of those trucks in this area within a short time. Due to this, I decided to replace it with something different... My pickup truck is now a 6WD Cabover ex-army truck. WAY more fun. I can carry pallets of concrete. Rip down large trees. We take it on date nite... My way of turning lemons into lemonade.

The engine compartment looks awsome. Put some security on that thing.

Let's go, the dream doesn't die. Good info about the coils, I know OEM Audi units are popular and relatively affordable. It's gonna open doors for many people.

That engine looks really good in the Camaro!

My favorite channel getting back on the horse and continuing on in the pursuit of speed? *Hell* yes. Mega props, keep at it Calvin.

Oh man! That engine looks right at home in there.

My Sunday morning is now complete, thanks to a visit from the Nelson family.

Hell Yeah! Get back on that horse. I know I'm speaking for others. But, We love your family and your content. Can't wait for the outcome.

Build back better than ever!!

Great video and a interesting build. Wish I could drop dimes like that on the oil pan. Good to see dad helping out. What a talented family.

Thanks. It's been 8 years of practice to get to that point.

Great seeing you getting back up on the horse again 🤘🏻

Good to see you all. Still praying for your success.

I quickly recognized the VW/Audi coils. As I was looking for a slimmer form factor of smart coil than the Toyota 1ZZ coils to fit a future project. And came across the VW/Audi coils. I like finding OE style components for projects. That way replacements are more likely to be found at a local parts store.

Clean build. Great to see a new video after the bad news.

That 4200 should have been an option in the Camaros, looks clean as hell in there man.

Glad to see you and your family back in the shop. Still hopeful all goes well with the recovery of the Studeabaker and other equipment. Keep your head up and stay strong!

Glad to see u back up and moving forward after the devastation

Full speed ahead man!! The community is grateful for your work

he should make those coil brackets to where the coil is held at a slight angle and can flipped. That way the wires are coming off at a slight angle and the end user could decide the angle they wanted just by flipping the bracket.

These are such cool engines. If it fit under the stock hood of a c6 I'd love one of these in my vette.

Still looking out and praying for a miracle. I love the Script on the valve cover!

You’re an absolute inspiration for getting back to it after something so devastating, I’m hoping you get your car back and your truck but you’ve helped me make some decisions by seeing you refuse to give up here. Thanks man.

I remember seeing hotrod garage do one of these but they called it an American barra to see if it could be compared to the Australian barra.

Yep. That was fun to follow along with and we saw a huge spike to the channel activity because people were searching for more info on them. Wish they had done something more with that project.

I really want to run a 4200. I hope someone makes an solid rear sump oil pan for us non-weling folk.

This car is going to sing! I hope you get your car back bro!

Appreciate your dedication!

Do you watch Josh's Engine Rehab? He did an Ecotec cylinder head and showed some factory issues. I wonder if the 4200 head has the same issue. I think you'd like his channel, either way. ;)

Those new coils look slick. I hope they workout.

Calvin, first of all, i hope you get your car back as soon as possible to end the nightmare you and your family are going through. Besides that I really want you to know How much I appreciate all the effort you make on keep developing things to this engine platform as you said in the past, every adaptation, mod, design parts you make by yourself or with some people or brand help is amazing to see for engine guys like us. So thanks for every thing you do with this engine. Can't wait to see this yellow beast screaming 6cyl power, and wish you keep upgrading and developing parts to this engine to get even more reliability and power in the near future! Have a great day bro, love to see all the family working together btw❤

This is such a creative take on a modern Camaro... My hat is off to you and your Dad

Lieekhe Glooove!! Looks like it was made to go in there. Sure wish GM would have sold them that way. 😊❤

I’ve been checking your channel every day. What happened sucks but I’m glad to see you still doing what you do best.

After my built subaru flat 4 inevitably blows im rwd swapping one of these into it! platform is too good not too!

I hope they find your stuff 👊

The upgrades look impressive!

That engine looks great in there! Like it belongs there! I daily an old Audi that runs those type of coil packs, mine are red but basically the same. I've had a feeling they would fit but never thought they'd be able to handle 300hp per cylinder! I was considering going to a different style as I'm making about 100hp per cylinder but will soon putting a built engine in my car and while I don't plan on making a lot more power (another 25 to 50hp per hole) I do plan to spin another 1500 rpm. Maybe my coils are a lot better than I expected!

I hope you get your goods back. That's a really clean look inside the engine bay. Easing the edges reduces stress fractures and in theory less windage.

I really wish the aftermarket would start supporting this engine. There’s gold lying in junkyards all across America waiting to be discovered and polished up. Also, I really hope you get your Studebaker back. I keep checking various classified in my area hoping someone was shortsighted enough to list it, or parts of it.

Keep at it, man. Love these videos that car will resurface Btw oe vw red tops would look good with the ree valve cover

Great Build!! That 4200 just looks great in the camaros bay, maybe you should try building a turbo trailblazer that would be cool! Mine with 571k miles original engine and transmission, the trailblazer is extremley relaiable if taken care of, its an 02, and actully was able to get 0-60 in 7.2 seconds straight, i love it im never selling it❤️‍🔥 btw im still praying everyday for u to get your car back from the theives☺️

The engine looks like it belongs in there. Very nice. 👍

Those injectiors are fancy!

I love this build. Id like to see an NA atlas built into a daily driver. Mild 300 hp. Light weight chassis. Or even a station wagon. My trailblazer performed quite well on the road. Gas miliage wasnt bad. But id like to see what it could do without all the extra weight.

Been hoping someone would see the lark & u get It back. Glad to see u keep moving forward on this ride

I didn't know this engine existed until I watched one of your videos.You gave me an idea with the 4200, i appreciate that. Just gotta get the VTEC sorted on a proper ecu and it's going to be a revelation 😂

Great video. Nice to see you back at work 💪

Still wish he'd chosen a 'Vette, and had himself an American XKE - although the 4200 is probably too tall to fit without a hood bubble, and too long to fit at all, period. 'Vette engine compartments are tight even for an LS, and an LS is pretty compact for its displacement and power.

Eyes open in VA. Thanks for returning to the Atlas 4200. Best of luck on finding your truck/rig/Stude.

I can't wait to see how the camaro performs. I was wondering if you have ever done anything with the 5 cylinder engine. There are quite a few out there, the Chevy Colorado, H3 Hummer, etc. It would be interesting to see what kind of reliable hp/torque you can get and still use as a daily driver.

Great to see you back. 🙏🤞u get you ride back

Yayuus. Been looking to see what you've been up to... glad to see you're still at it. Sorry to hear about the POS that stole your ride. Hope things turn out ok for you. I always look forward to seeing what you put another 4200 into. Those motors are still slept on but you're results are definitely a great part of the conversation when I talk about them with my shop buddies.

Good.luck brother and still praying for good results in the search for your belongings. Keep your head up push forward it will come full circle to the better for ya.

Once this is done this needs to be reviewed by a bunch of channels to build the following for this engine

I love this project! I’m 73 years old, and way back in 1970, when the 2nd Gen Camaro was just coming out, I speced, and almost bought, a six cylinder 1970-1/2 Camaro. That plan changed when I walked into the dealer’s showroom and saw that I could get a Z/28 for only $400 more. 😂 Life can be strange, right? 🎉 I love what you guys do! Keep the shiny side up! ❤ All the best!

Love how that engine fits in there. So roomy

So happy I found this channel! Currently going through my first LS engine swap and have been dreaming about an inline 6 build for the future. Might be getting out to the local junkyards soon. Awesome work man

I'm so Excited for this build! Got me an 06 TB 2wd and been thinking on boosting it After many important improvements.

2:44 You don't have to over explain it. You made an American straight turbo six pony car

I like that you just get after it Calvin. Perseverance

Just got to keep pushing it forward, can't wait to see this thing at Sick Week

That vortex fits like it was supposed to be an option (like the early Camaros got 6s) Looking forward to seeing you make this you new halo car for the channel Hope all the other car channels collaborate to get the eyes on the USA streets and car Comunity to draw in and help you find your car and things

Love to see you continuing on with the builds considering the crap situation about the truck and trailer thanks for the content
