K&F Show #243: SEMA 2022 Insider Access – “Corndog’s Pick” for the Dukes Review – S1E4 “Repo Men”

Presented with Holley! At the SEMA Show Holley dropped a number of new product offerings, including the super nice (and super affordable) Hooker exhaust manifolds for the traditional Small Block Chevy. Hooker’s line of cast-iron exhaust manifolds are designed to perform far above factory manifolds and are offered in five finishes: natural cast, cast-iron gray ceramic, black ceramic, silver ceramic, and titanium ceramic. For builds under 550 horsepower that don’t necessarily need tubular headers, like a weekend cruiser, these manifolds might be the answer you are looking for!

Just visit Holley.com to peruse and view for yourself. While you are there….pick out a few more things for Christmas and be SURE to tell them that we sent you!

Dukes Review: When Corndog picked a Georgia episode to review I knew to trust his judgment. This episode features everything: Jerry Rushing, the self-proclaimed real-life Bo Duke, Lee 1 in it’s after jumped form, and a thin Boss Hogg with a weird accent and even weirder eyebrows. Add to that mismatched GL’s as far as the eye can see, real GL horn sound effects, and writing credits by none other than Bob Clark (from “A Christmas Story”)! 10 Corndogs.

Sure, you know Holley for making carburetors, fuel injection, exhaust, and other happy giving items….but did you know they also have wiper motor conversions for your classic ride? Boom. Your life has just changed! That’s right, Holley offers a wide range of kits under their Detroit Speed line of award winning suspension and electrical items, including the Selecta-Speed wiper kit. Frankly put, some people have said these kits are better than candy, puppies, and fireworks. We agree. A modern wiper kit on an old car makes it almost instantly into a usable daily driver again!

Dukes Review: DIt’s the Dukes of Hazzard Reunion……again. This time, like the last time, the combine some old scripts from the TV series and create a slightly newer episode from it. Which episodes you ask – well – at a minimum, Season 7 Episode 6 titled The Dukes in Hollywood, combined with Daisy’s Song from Season 1, combined with – possibly – the 1962 movie The Music Man – which ironically the Hazzard town set was built for. Now, add to that a brand new jump of a General Lee – the first since the TV show ended – and it gets more interesting.

And add to that that we see the original hero car close up inside – a lot – and that’s fun. But perhaps most interesting of all is that this TV movie is possibly, nay, probably the precursor to a little movie that will come out one year later in 2001. That movie, like this episode, features a teaming up a local Mexican or hispanic family that fights crime with cars, likes block parties, and has a penchant for the ’68-70 Dodge Charger. That’s right. Add this to the list of stuff the Dukes invented but did not get credit for; the Dukes created the Fast and Furious Franchise. The end.

Dukes Review: KF friends, we are on the dawn of reviewing the final episode of the Dukes of Hazzard. We knew this day would come. The Dukes of Hazzard changed SIGNIFICANTLY over the course of 7 seasons, and so has the Kibbe and Friends show! Accordingly, and because we needed a bonus show this week anyway, here is a look back on our very edition of the KF first show – and first review of the first sever Dukes of Hazzard episode, One Armed Bandits. It’s corny, it’s weird, and it’s way different than how it it all wrapped up. Same as the KF Show. KF Show Phase 3 begins in October 2022!

TMCP #512: Ask Rick – New Horsepower Muscle and the Future of the Internal Combustion Engine!

Ask Rick: As the electric offerings from car makers increase, we couldn’t help but discuss the fact that Ford, GM, and Chrysler all have unbelievably higher performing new”real engine” offerings. Ford brought the V8 back to the 2023 Raptor, Chevy just released their first flat-crank engine ever in the new Corvette Z06, and Dodge is continuing to rank #1 in customer satisfaction for their HEMI vehicles. And with all of that said….Ford and GM as well (as other manufacturers) are talking about letting employees go to afford to develop electric cars in a long term bid to get fully into the non gasoline market. What gives?

Dukes Review: Orson Wells broadcast War of the World on the radio in 1938….then in the 1960’s Star Trek led to Star Wars in the 1970’s which led to ET in the early 80’s….and finally that led to this. Let’s get it over with. I know that I have been dreading this episode since we debuted this show in 2016….and I am betting that when the script for this episode leaked to the Warner Brother brass that they cancelled the series it before they even filmed this episode. That said, there’s too much negativity in this world as it is so let’s put on a happy face and enjoy what’s good!

First, there are no miniatures used in this episode for stunts (they rely on B-roll for jump footage). There are outstanding interior shots of the General Lee that will make us excited once again for tracking down the Forever Young soundstage Charger. There’s toe-tapping alien music music with a country twang. This might be the first – and only episode with graphical special effects. The power of local radio – and the local radioman standing at his post to deliver the news people need to know is displayed proudly in this episode. But what you don’t know is, this episode was the audition tape that John Schneider sent into the producers of Smallville….because this episode featured John Schneider – hiding an alien that can shoot lasers from his eyeballs – in a charming farmhouse. 

There. We got through it. Together.  1 Corndog.

Dukes Review: Hughie Hogg returns with a fake Genie, a fake Magic Lamp, and a scorching case of hemorrhoids (we assume). This is a dumb episode, and for a series that started out with RV’s full of hookers being driven over county lines that became a family friendly show with a magic car, that then became a joke with imposter Dukes cousins, that then tried to put the Dream Team back together with a family friendly focus, it’s nice to end the series with a return of Hughie Hogg and his original two henchman. Again it’s dumb. Boss Hogg thinks that there is a genie in his office. A real genie. That’s all you need to know. And while there are miniature stunt….at least it isn’t of a jumping General Lee. And at the very end….the Dukes risk their lives to save the bad guy, and that’s a lesson from the Good Book any way you slice it.

Movie Review: This is the coming of age tale of Lightning McQueen, the uber talented yet uber cocky up and coming race car in the Cars universe. You know the story just as well as we do so we’ll spare you the standard details. Basically, this is the tale of a universe where cars are people, racing is the national past-time, and Route 66 is rediscovered. The list of voice talent is outstanding and is helmed by Owen Wilson, Paul Newman, and Larry the Cable Guy. It’ll make you laugh, cry, and wish you were what you always really wanted to be in life…..a car! This is the first of the Cars trilogy of movies, but in our humble opinions…it’s the best.

K&F Show #229: The Independence Day Spectacular! – Dukes of Hazzard Review S7E13 “The Haunting of J.D. Hogg”

Presented with Holley! If you’re planning to do an EFI conversion Holley has a baffled EFI in-tank-pump equipped option ready to go for you! Remember, stock tanks meant for carburetors initially weren’t baffled, meaning a little sloshy-slosh here and there was inevitable (and for a carb with a fuel bowl, not a big deal). EFI requires a constant high pressure fuel supply, and an in-tank pump in the confines of a baffled fuel tank is the best way to go for drivability AND performance. The OEM’s have done that for 30 years! 

Dukes Review: This is the first episode to release in 1985….and by this point in the show, the series was actually over. Filming had ceased. Actors were looking for new jobs. General Lee’s were sitting idly, waiting for a young Corndog to document them, knowing that there were 27 General Lee’s at the time and he stashed 8 of them for himself to find when he grew up. Tom Wopat directs the episode and – like his previous episodes – really gives fan service, interesting camera angles, and always establishes where the General is. There are no miniatures used of any kind – only recycled footage of jumps and new wrecks. At the end everyone is on scene together and happy. Rosco is over the top funny. It’s a really nice episode. White there are no new jumps, there are new stunts in it – including a big General Lee wreck that is potentially that last GL to be wrecked on screen. But I have to admit…it kind of seems like a goodbye.
