I would say he drives like a man that works for a living and knows what tires cost and has nothing to prove. Just enjoy it to the fullest. So glad to see that. Thank you for sharing
Yes he's a proper hot rodder knows what he has ,what it will do, but don't do it ,enjoy it, don't dog it
He drives like he knows he can't handle all that car. You can tell he doesn't know anything by how he's running such a small tire on a big hp car. That's just dangerous
@@delavarzarnegar8170 100% and the dude is scared of the car 😂
3/4 of the throttle? Why bother building it?
@@pareotrem because it’s his money and he has 67 other cars to play with everyone has a preference
@@kingofthanorth Still does not make sense. Same as you buy a big beer and only drink half of it.
I've said this before and I'll say it again. There's nothing like an old-school blower,it gets the blood going👍
respectfully, while it shouts "HP" better than a stroker setup...and the whine of air trapped between belt and gear plus the surge at idle is ear candy....it eats torque off the crank (since torque is spinning motion) and wears out its seals. there is something better than a blower, and it's a turbo. technically a "blower", except operated differently. I've had older setups that lacked "low end" like centrifugal blowers, but they can be set up for low RPM boost as well.
@@albertgaspar627 turbo don’t look as cool sticking out the hood as old school screw blower does ,if turbo’s really did make more power than screw blowers, I have zero doubt NHRA would’ve been using them long before now, since literally all of them still use blowers though I have to say blower is king of torque especially at 1/4 mile at a time🤙🏼
A giant cowl hood and a hole in the front grill is better than turbo or roots blowers. Louder, more whistle , torque and power than either roots or turbo on the street. All no prep racers and Radial Promods are using crank driven Prochargers. I'd have to say they are king if you want to modulate traction and have the same or more top end power as a screw on the street. Check out my Twin Procharged Camaro or Big Red (when its running the Procharger) for proof!
I love 70-72 Firbirds and Camaro’s. Pontiac Formula 400 and the Z-28.
4:23 - Shawn, just FYI a 496 BBC is typically derived from a .060 over bored 454 with a 1/4” additional stroke (4.25). It was super common in racing before aftermarket tall deck blocks became prevalent.
It's the 383 build for a big block. I plan on building a 496 for my 2nd gen.
@@ChasingPerfection - Yep.
Chevy made tall deck blocks for the extra piston ring and back in the day when I worked on those they ran on propane.
It’s good to see a guy who drives it but also respects his car. Fantastic car all round.
That orange pinstripe on the gray paint looks very nice! Very cool Camaro.
A beautiful Camaro. I can respect a guy whom has such love for his car to not abuse, or tear it up to show off the car's capabilities. He knows it's capabilities, and he's impressed each time he gets to drive the car.
nice to see these big blower again! what a nice build! classic interior, right choice of paint color, not over the top huge modern wheels. love it!
This guy is pretty cool. Love the old school feel of the build. I had the same Sumitomo tires on my mustang. They weren’t so great.
Really cool guy and nice car with a great story
💥 Killer ride. There’s nothing cooler than a second gen Camaro. 7:38 I have 275 on the front and 315’s on the back of my 70 RS big block 468 and she roasts the hell out of them easily for the first 3 gears of my Tremec TKO 5 speed.
496 BUILD SPECS: Bore x stroke 4.310x4.250
Nothing not to like about Jeff’s blown big block Gen 2 Camaro. Love the throttle response. He really loves driving this car. Another high h.p. car with only lap belts🤷♂️
Add a shoulder strap and a bigger back tire and it’s just right
What a cool car dude; you'd think with the blower, every part of it would be 'over the top', but NOTHING is, it's all 'just enough!'
Awesome knowing you can blister rear tires whenever you want but respect the power enough to know you don’t have to, you know what it’ll do, it’s not anybody else’s buisiness what it’ll do🤙🏼
Those rims are interesting, they look similar to what people put on like Eleanor mustangs. They kinda work for me 👍
Ordinarily I'm not a fan of blower motors, but something about that matte black blower is really winning me over such a badass ride!🎉
I like the look of blowers until you get inside the car…it really inhibits the view but really cool car
Shawn.... Great content as always. I noticed the last couple of videos have been longer. Thank you for doing that. Love your channel and all the extended content!
Nice to see a cool trad engine in a restomod instead of yet another generic LS.
Simply gorgeous Jeff, great story, it is a small world. 13 months? Wow. You worked ass off, beautiful sound, nice stance Best of luck 👍 to you brother. Thanks again Shawn for a great video as always TCB
He really moved quickly on it and such a cool story! Glad you like what we do here. I’m having a blast with it all!
Best color for any muscle car …..nice
I love all the cars you have on the channel even though there isn’t as many Mopar’s on here as I’d like I still love every single class a car there is because they have their own personality and they’re beautiful. Thank you again for your time.
Thanks. I’m always in search of cool Mopars to shoot but there’s just not as many as Ford and GM
I don't usually like big rims on old cars but those fit great!
Absolutely...I'm more of a 67 or 69 style guy but....man this 71 is GORGEOUS
That belt when he opens the hood. You just know that sounds like the best sound out of a any engine ever.
You get a 496 from a bored and stroked 454. That is my dream engine lol. I have a 454 bored to a 461.
Beautiful car!!
That was what I was guessing but didn’t know for sure
Awesome video from you guys!!!!! Definitely in my top 5 for sure.
Thanks. Killer ride
this guy respect his build love second gen camaros
He certainly does respect the power
An owner that "knows" his car & cars! Obviously has the monetary capabilities to acquire & build a beauty like this! I like/love it. Sweet! Thank you, J
Very rarely these complete modifications match my idea what proper rims size and tire sidewall looks good. I find this one spot on.
Man i LOVE this channel…. Wild 71 💪🏻
Great vibe behind the build. Obviously a beautiful car.
Your face Shawn is priceless to watch. Great vid. Stay Gold!
People at our age appreciate this.
Sweet Ride Bro..to find a car that far away means you really Love It!!..Real Car Guy!!
I just watched a video about a Japanese guy who builds American muscle cars with Japanese style. Pretty awesome. They love our cars and culture. Just so crazy that we have all these cars here in America and we don't even appreciate it.
I love seeing such amazing cars coming out of my Native San Diego county. Makes me proud to know such great work is being done in my backyard 👍🏾
I wish I had enough money to buy a blower for the looks of it. Pretty cool car. I'm not a huge fan of the second generation camaros, but the paint job and blower help the lack of looks.
Hey Shawn, great video as always the car is over the top, I love how the owner knows his limitations on such a potent beast, the fact that he has the throttle stop at 3/4 says a lot about what judicious use of the go pedal can unleash....smart man !!
I like his color combo. Very respectful car. That’s an everyday FUN driver for sure!!
That’s it. I’ve seen perfection
Gorgeaus kind of street machine!
For sure!
Great looking car. Thanks for video!
Love it man awesome car. Keep up good work guys on the show I'm enjoying it
Got that A/C cranked!!!!!!
Christmas came early , thanks Santa Claus , love 2 see Happyness & Joyfulness in the same place at the same time !! Enjoy 💯✌️👍
I think Sean and myself have matching sunglasses tan lines
Lol!
The size of this blower is insane. Great car. Greetings
Insanity for sure!
My dream car shawn! I always look forward to your videos.❤❤ love it!
Lets make America like the 70’s again 😎🇺🇸✌🏽
Really nice 2nd gen Camaro, the grey suits that body and I love the blacked out tail light panel, reminds me of Grumpy's Toy. Great video.
I think EVERYONE luvs a blown Camero.
I think EVERYONE loves to blown…you know what i mean?😂
Dude has a sweet garage, looks like he has a lift and a double high garage to allow for the lift. Looks like he has a Chevelle in there too. Temecula is still being built in some areas as you can see from the construction of new homes in the background.
This was at our friend Ken’s house. The Nova you see in the garage is Ken’s and is also on our channel
Sounds Op..... Great job buddy 💯💯👍👍🤠🤠🇺🇸🇺🇸 awesome buddy 😎🤠🤠🇺🇸🇺🇸
He drives it like my Great Uncle drove his 429 T-Bird. smoke the Vettes off the line and to the speed limit lol Just the F with their heads. Can't go wrong with a 6-71 and the reason to add it!
Came across your channel few days ago, im HOOKED...you get to see, learn about, and drive the most epic rods in the country. What a dream job! This camaro is pretty much perfect as well, i like the 67 and 69 styles better, but man that 71 is sexy!!!
That’s definitely a daily driver. Cool 2nd gen F-body. Drive it till the wheels fall off.
Such an authentic build man. Wow.
Way to go guys enjoyed the video one big ass blower but to respect the horsepower as to not wrap around a pole is why Autotopia is rolling with the big dogs.
Thanks. We try to always show respect for the power these vehicles make
Classy.
Love the blower
Beautiful Camaro especially with that huge blower 👍🇲🇰
Such a different build. Pretty neat.
beautiful car and the rims 😍
The perfect size and fit!
beautiful car, I'm not sure if he said but the exhaust pipe looks small like their 2.5 dia. But if it works it works.
He didn’t say the size but I’d guess the same. Nice car
Wow..great ride.. 4 spd though..i guess that helps keep performance in check pushing the clutch in every few seconds?
what a beautifully build machine.
Coolest guest ever
Thanks bro😊
Pure American hot rod. I love it. Another fantastic video.
Thanks and yeah…this is pure cool American muscle
Can't believe how the car was re-united with the builder. What a small world... or is it the universe?
Just wow
Deadass, nice build.
Love the blower set up
Loved the Camaro!!
Really awesome video. Lol. Great build. Very tasteful car. Looks great.
I'd love to see a only blower (871?) 6.0 LS car gasping for air in the channel. :)
Hell yeah bro, this is a bad ass car. Love the look and simplicity. Not over the top, but not stock. I'm trying to get ideas for my Chevelle.
This one is nice, Shawn.
Very cool ride he built
🤔🤔🤔I DIDN'T SEE ANY SEAT BELTS 🤕 SAFETY FIRST 💯🙏👍, BEAUTIFUL BUILD
It had lap belts only and you probably know how I feel about that
beautiful car so glad he didn't make it a fake split bumper this car is beautiful
love it!!
Another wicked ass car!!!!
Still no good belts....I know looks, but I want to be around to enjoy my rides. I like the look of a nice seat with harnesses.
Same for me but otherwise great car, cool guy and awesome story!
Sweet recreation of a high school car we all would love to have And he knows his limitations 😉
Thats a awesome car 👍🏽👍🏽🙂 but in our country you can't have a blower that high out of the bonnet or blocking your vew, you can get lower blowers now or you can modify things to make it sit lower 🙂👍🏽 but I love the way he drives it , I'm the same now I like just cruising, hopefully I can build another cruise car soon? May be next year?
I’m the same way now…little tire spin for some fun but nothing that could get away from me
Amazing car!!!!!!
That is a beautiful car. Not sure about the blower but it is a stunner. My father in law has a 1958 Nomad 4 door with a small block.
Love that Camaro! There is nothing like a 6-71 sticking through the hood! I have a 295/18 BFGs on the rear of my 95Z28. Tires cost too much money to be burning them up being stupid.
awesome!
Car with that kind of hp needs proper seatbelts. Absolutely!
Agreed and a bigger tire out back imo
I saw this car at Kooter’s Garage in Murrieta. That Brian does great work!
Shaffroff Racing sells a Brodix Low Rise intake that would have fit under the hood if its a short deck block which it probably started out as a 454.
That paint with that red pin stripe and the wheels, the stance, and that Big ASS blower is perfection! Bitchin Camero man! donuts on your lawn! (ahem… seatbelts? dude..)
Dude, I truly love your videos! The way you cover the car, the respect you give to the owners, and of course the "Oh Shit" face! Love your content! I look forward to every one of them. Please keep up the great work! BTW This car is awesome! Glad I subscribed to your channel.
Thank you!! I still laugh at my “oh shit” face lol!!
@@AutotopiaLA the best one to date was that gray Monte Carlo???? With the adjustable power dial. Your face was PRICELESS DUDE!
Love the rego, clicked straight away and it certainly does
Awesome!
Restomod pro touring with a big blower is awesome and different.
real sleeper there
Except that massive blower
That's the way I drive my ss I know it's got lots of power an I don't got to prove nothing to no one .Thats a beautiful car jeff
I hear ya!
Great camaro
Awesome
Love second gen Camaro's, still the best looking Camaro ever! great job. I believed Chevy makes 496 crate motor.
Great car
Nice!!!!! 👍👍
