BadShoe Productions, Auto repair videos specializing in Ford powertrains.
About Me:
 
Hi, my name is Kenneth Collins, I'm an amateur still photographer, videogragher and a Ford Senior Master Technician with over 35 years of experience. I've built dune buggies, a Drag car and have been in the Street Rodding Hobby. My interest in videography along with my career as a Ford technician, has come together in my How To Video projects. I've tried to shoot the videos to show techniques and tips like I would have wanted to see when I was coming up in the car business. The videos are geared for both the hands on car guy and people who are always looking for more technical information. I've finished the second volume of a two volume series on Swapping a 5.0L Ford engine into the Fox platform and my latest video on building a drag race Powerglide is among the titles I've produced. Please visit my company's web site www.BadShoeProductions.com for more info. Thanks....Ken.

BadShoeProductions Also next year I might throw in a 9" end bearing racing 8.8" companion video as well. I hope to do a 4R70W but that's a ways off. I have raced the TBird used in the engine swap series for a few weeks this fall with some surprising results. After finishing swap volume two (two years ago), I ran the car turning a 14.57 at 97 mph. Since then I've raised the timing and shift points resulting in a 13.97 at 100 mph. Adding only a 75 shot of nitrous netted a 12.50 at 108 mph.

BadShoeProductions Hi, Ken here, I hope to post a bulletin each month on my video projects and what new clips I'm working on. Between earthquakes and Hurricanes I'm even further behind the "8" ball but I hope to start my new FMX video project by the end of the year. Next year I have plans to do a Drag Race C4 buildup because of email feedback asking for it. I'm working on a build it yourself C4 transbrake valve body if the prototype works out. I'd like to know if you guys are interested in that.

you are a lucky man to marry two of your passions, automobiling and camering, LOL I will go visit your website and see what's available

Great videos, thank you. I do have a question: What are the advantages of the 8.8 over the 9"? It'd be interesting to do a video comparing the units side by side.

Keep up the great work.

Thanks for the great quality videos man! Some of the best technical info and best videos on YouTube .. it's just the rental concept that I am thrown off by. No offense. Just offering my thoughts and reaction for your benefit.

Wow teaser videos to try to get rentals. My first reaction is I hate it and will avoid the channel completely, but I understand the motivation. Sure you have great quality .. but. What if all of YouTube turned into teaser videos and attempts to get money at every click? Naw, I don't think I'll ever agree with this idea. I think you monetize through tons of great FREE info then link in to sell products/etc but don't use teaser videos .. that's not what YouTube is supposed to be about. Information wants to be free. (Not my quote.)

Ken: Download is a good idea, it will be cheaper, so you will sell more, and also it may give you repeat business as computers are replaced every 3 years, and it is almost impossible to down load file to new computer. If you wish to further control it, give a time limit on, on line access like Motor and all do.

so what is so different about the 9.75 from the 8.8? if the clutch packs are worn then when you take it out what has to be replaced besides the packs when they go in and how should they go? any further adjustment with the ring & pinion? install will be done on the truck, thanks!
