The V8 swapped Tesla, powering up the computers

I'm so ready to watch a tesla burnout

Uncle Rich has the whole tesla reddit disliking his videos 😂

18:40 you shall soon be in integration hell

Aren't you guys worried about His Greatness (Lord Elon Musk) in his infinite wisdom dispatching elite assassins to excecute you guys before you can fire up that treasonous internal combustion engine in a Tesla (the 4 wheeled embodiment of perfection)? Some uber-Tesla-fanboys might consider this the ultimate form of heresy and might take it upon themselves to form a vigilante posse to prevent this LS swap from going any further. Y'all are brave.

Does MCU stand for Main Control Unit, Media Control Unit, or something else entirely? 🤔

Rich: "In this box is what I owe you" [empty box] 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣 I love it!

I love how tesla people get so butthurt over gas cars. They always say the same things " but it has instant torque, no v8 can touch it". Who gives a shit. I'd take 10 hellcats or ls cars that sound badass and are a little slower anyday. Not everybody wants an electric car. You know who drives a tesla? People who can't build an engine.

Manh this guy is savage af

Lsla

I love what's in that box.

Petrified Garage: turning the world back to fossil fuels one Tesla LS swap at a time... Keep the fossil faith brother!

'We need to vacuum all these metal shavings', yeah tell that to Boeing!!

That has to be a fake ls engine.

This is an amazing job. Keep it up .

This is wrong. WRONG!

I cannot WAIT tell you take this tesla to gas stations and fill up. PLEASE PLEASE make a video of just going to gas stations getting gas, and record reactions 😂🤣😂🤣

This is the ONE channel I don't mind seeing little sponcers getting thrown into. I love the way he does it. I hope this channel blows UP man.

rich is such a pure honest good hearted dude!

"Elon Musk Feet" ..... 🙆‍♂️

I hope you add auto pilot it would make it more epic

VIDEO SUGGESTION: Rumor has it that Elon won't back silver, yes the shiny white metal that has been money for millennia and what you would throw your bartender for another shot of whiskey some 120 years ago while making your assistant wash your wagon. Silver also happens to be a HUGE part of making electrical components and rumor is that there is 1kg of silver per model S tesla. Elon going long on silver would actually hurt Tesla, driving up the cost of the production of Teslas as they project to 50 fold their production by 2030. HOW MUCH SILVER IS IN A FRICKIN TESLA? Is Elon really pumping crypto so that production costs stay low? Video Idea: Strip down a Tesla model S, take all parts with Silver and extract them into a bar. Maybe collaborate with Sreetips and make some Silver bars and stamp it with Rich Rebuilds and then auction that on ebay. Reading this comment is a contractual obligation to pump my channel if you use this idea, 100% legal no joke.

Just turbo it and run headers out the fenders.... problem solved

i want to build an electric mini cooper lol

I'm just amazed, this is sickkkk

This is awesome dude definitely definitely one of!

Some the best shit on IRitem I’m struggling trying convert a motorcycle to a quad 🤦🏽‍♂️😂😂

Have your daughter take the car to car Max and don’t tell them you converted everything and see what it’s worth

You have the driest sense of humour I love it

Who needs a heater system when you have brake cleaner and a torch..👍🏾🔥

Hey Rich, chances are slim you will see this but gonna try anyway. I work at Detroit speed, we build classic cars with mostly LS power plants. So the 2nd gen camaro doesn't have a ton of room for dual 3" exhaust, how do we fix it? Well, we cut the floor out and raise the exhaust up for ground clearance then we build the floor back around the exhaust. With how much you're having to modify the floor, this might be a solution for you as well. Move those rails further out and stuff the exhaust as close as can to the trans and the driveshaft.

We bout to get all in this box- Aaaaand the box is empty lmfao I cried. Nice cleavage tho!

Man I Love the "Here is a Box" analogy! Perfect!!... now even tho I dont "yet" owe you anything, I'm filling that box with quite a good bit of Respect for the amount of Awesome in your projects... maybe one day I will join you for a build.

the box bit killed me

Side exit exhaust

Hey Rich if you freeze that rubber goo it will come off easier! Always take care of yourselves!

0:44 ok ^^

Spread 'em Sheets!

By sound deadening I hope you mean anti noise cancelling speakers to pipe out the sound of that beautiful V8 loud and proud

will autopilot work still?

You are funny. Of course my sense of humor is fairly warped. Keep up the good work. Feel free to visit in Oklahoma any time you are passing through.

1:34 isn't that the screen from the video that plainrock smashed with

“Here is a box”

Can we talk about the complexity of this build; hilarious 1 liners aside? Amazing.

Man your sense of humour is crazy. Keep up the good work buddy 👍

Videos are too short. This is my favourite Tesla keep it up, all the best with the build

You should mount fake speakers on the outside so when up pull up to a Tesla meet you can play off the loud exhaust for a while until you go to show off your frunk.

eBay motors are the bestttt I love the sponsors

Yeah, knee pads are a must have, so many are living on their knees nowadays LOL!

If you are working on a v8 do you have to drink v8?

Awesome job rich, can you take my wife on a date but not bring her back...🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣

I imagine the engine in the Tesla and the car be like: No electric? No car! And blows up

The box bit was not just true, but funny af

This is a box, In this box contains what I owe you, there is nothing in this box....lol. classic file this will go.

You might never see this, or if you do, never actually do it. But it would be cool to see someone swap everything electric in one car to another electric car, both being different companies. If this makes any sense.

JAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAA THERE IS NOTHING IN THIS BOX!! JAJAJAJAA

Taycan left the chat*

If the heathers are so close to the frame and the frame is aluminum wouldn't it melt from the heat?

Would love to see some dynamat or alternative. I imagine cabin noise is an unmitigated issue at this point.

OMG THE ROASTS!!!!!

Rich me love ya but there’s probably very few people who would watch a hundred hours of wire routeing

Laugh out loud funny, as usual. Epic project dude

Very excited for this one! Keep up the good work

I really wonder how it's gonna show the range. :D Might not be a problem, but I want to see it.

What differential are you using ? Lol because I’m confused on how the Tesla is going to move

Man this is my dream car

You now owe me the inside of a box

Get rid of the abs

Here is a box, in said box is exactly what I owe you. There is nothing in that box

I need you- Stevon

@grindhardplumbingco 9:17

I really think you should call this thing GAS-LA...

This is the ultimate Tesla troll like only Rich could do, with his great of humour. You know this is going to be amazing video, when he take this out to the public

Make a cummins 4bt tesla, for rolling coal. The world needs it!

It’s funny but it’s also kind of idiocracy (watch it).

LS swap the Barbie car lol

Tesla won't sell me the parts to fix it but chevy sure will 😂😂😂😂

@22:56 shake it 3 times, your just playing with yourself.

Rich - you make enough money to put heat in that garage so poor Josh can work like a human being...

NIce!

#TeLSla frickin love what you're doing bruv

Inside this box is what I owe you...Fuckin precious! I love it!

I can't wait for this build to be done, PURE FUCKING AMAZING!!!!

Good to stand up to Tesla every one out there should be Abel to fix and repair there own vehicle if they wish to do so

This is a box, lol

The transition into the sponsor was flawless!!!!! Ulimukali iwe!!!

Waiting for the next episode! Are you editing? Can't wait! *FLUTE SFX*

Thumbs up based on the wacky lady in the first frame

am i the only one that doesnt understand what he's saying half the time but i still watch cause i wanna see how a noisy tesla drives?

Integration is always the hardest part 😔

The broken flute kills me everytime😭😭😭

Rich,.. need to refer to this project as “The TeLSa”

The empty box speaks the truth. You entertain the crap out of us for FREE and 1.05 of the 1.06 million hugely appreciate it I'm sure. I absolutely loved the Olive Garden special YOU made to celebrate a HUGE milestone on YOUR channel, though not consulting us first seems a little rude 🤣 I love that you don't buckle to jerks, you do what you do, and 99.999999% of us LOVE it!

Dry ice

will autopilot work

You are crazy man !!!! This channel is unreal !! It's not possible !! OMG ! You are not real 🤣 You have all my respect for the rest of my life sir

Living boby told to subscribe you and i did

LOVE THE BOX !! damm entitlement all the time, don't let them tear you down!

How will he get the instrument cluster and middle screen to work with the car without throwing huge ass codes and how will he program the cluster to show the RPMs and all that stuff needed?????????

👍👍
