    Well, this never happens...somehow we made WAY more horsepower with our LS1 than we thought? In this episode, Tony Angelo and the Stay Tuned crew get to work packing a whole bunch of horsepower into an otherwise unknown stock LS1 engine to toss into Tony's new DIRT CHEAP C5 project. Somehow, this sucker made a ton more power than we all thought, and it's going to RIP!

    Man, this episode brings back memories. I bought a brand new 2000 Z28 that I swapped on LS6 head, cam, and intake. Hooker headers, Borla exhaust, and a BBK throttle body with Granatelli air sensor. Threw on 150 NOS kit for kicks. It was sick. I had just started my first job after college and my dad said, "how much money you got saved up?" as he held the Summit catalog in his hand. Best times ever. Lost my dad in 2003. Stuff like this hits had, but with good memories.

He didnt eat pizza he ate midwest home cooked meals and turns out he could cook like no tomorrow his own self and when not racing loved to entertain and make meals.
    I love all these fellers....Glidden, Johnson, Shepherd, Allen, Nicholson, Mannarino, i could go on and on from just the late 70s thru the 80s.

    This is a cool project, and quite timely, too. I browsed one of the local lots two days ago and came across a 2008 Trailblazer SS AWD for six grand! It had the 6-liter LS2 {395 bhp / 400 lb-ft} and 89k miles on the clock, along with a clean Carfax. This is the truck Road & Track quarter mile tested against a C6 'Vette sporting the same engine. The 'Vette got blown away, thanks to the AWD on the Trailblazer, which ran a 12.95 - the traction-limited 'Vette's best was a 13.68, IIRC. One of my co-workers has a 2007 Silverado SS AWD; after he put Corvette induction, a 'Vette chip in the ECU, and a pair of Hooker long-tube headers and a 3-inch exhaust on it, it was cranking out 475 horses - a cam and head swap like yours would have bumped things closer to 600!!
    Once your ride is dialed in, it'd be a real hoot if you could arrange a friendly bracket race with Mr. Dulcich, who also has a hot C5. Just sayin'............

    It was a hot summer down here in Australia too. On the worst days metal objects felt hot to the touch, air temperatures 37 Celsius (100F) or more in the shade, humidity 70% or higher. My shop is partially open air, so no chance of air conditioning. I was literally dripping with sweat. What saved me was one of those huge industrial pedestal fans. Put it right next to where I was working so I was being absolutely blasted with wind. The air was actually hotter than body temperature, so all the cooling comes from your sweat evaporating. Got to drink, a LOT. But I could keep working.

    Back in 2004 I was CRAZY about the new GTO, and my buddy worked at a Pontiac dealership and he told me to come test drive one. The 2004 GTO had the LS1 (the 350 HP engine) and the 2005 had the LS2 (400 HP). I will tell you that while it was OK, not CRAZY fast, but it handled the winding roads like you wouldn't believe. I was taking turns rated at 35 MPH at 115 MPH. I scared the hell out of my buddy, but that car was so planted in stock form and it didn't take alot of work to drive it. The one that I drove was a six speed manual and even the clutch felt nice, engaged easily, and wasn't overly heavy, but it only had about 80 miles on it. I tried to sling it around a u-turn and I heard someone yell, I said, "what'd he say?" My buddy said, "bro that's my boss! He's the GM!" He followed us back to the dealership and he screamed at my buddy and said, "I can't believe you would let him do that!" I jumped in and said that I didn't mean to do that, I hit the throttle and it kicked the rear end out and he told me to take the car back immediately. We got back and I acted like I was trying to purchase the car, but I was only like 21 or 22 back then and I had a fully modified 1996 GMC Jimmy SLE Santa Fe edition that was lowered on 22" Lexani rims with 10 TVs, 12-10" subwoofers, was painted with PPG Platinum Pearl White with a full body kit that had won best of show at NOPI Nationals, but it still had a basically stock 4.3 Vortec. I had always wanted a domestic muscle car though...

      The '04 GTO was actually an Australian car, the Holden Monaro. GM re-badged it as a Pontiac for sale in the US. That's why it handled so well, in Australia we like a V8 but have historically preferred a slightly smaller and more handling oriented car than what was sold in the US. The GTO wasn't a big hit with US customers though.
      They also imported the 4-door version (Holden Commadore) as the Pontiac G8. Not a big hit either, sadly.

      @evanhall19 Před 6 hodinami

      It's currently just street tuned. Texas speed said the combo was good for 430ish to the wheels. The Cam sounds so good thru my true 3in duals. Found out my trans is slipping around 6,500rpms just before it shifts.

      All these o-ring style gaskets dryout and crack. My Chevy Malibu is getting a bunch of them changed because it went from no leaks to gushing. These gaskets are the norm these days but I keep cars along time and run into trouble because of it.
