The Slant Six engine is notorious for being a notoriously underpowered engine, but the hosts are determined to turn it into something special.

Finally, the hosts put the car back together and take it for a test drive. They are thrilled with the results of their build, and the car is faster and more powerful than they ever thought possible. The Slant Six Duster is now a truly unique, high-performance street machine that is sure to turn heads wherever it goes.
