I was going to my speed shop when i saw a turtle heading towards a little pond but he was moving real slow across the road. I turned around to go and get him and some asshole in a f350 intentionally crossed solid yellow lines to crush him. Youve got a good heart brother.
That’s wild , love those 72 birds. Hard to beat that LS 5.3 turbo.. sweet !!! I run the same trans and rear end ratio in my 81 TA. It runs good for a big inch NA Pontiac but it ain’t even close to yours lol. My best is 13.2 @102 in the 1/4 . Your running 102 mph in the 1/8 lol. I am 81 mph in the 1/8. Lol I can’t keep up with my brothers 76 turbo TA either lol
This car is my dream!! lol i love to see it get driven and bashed on. After i finish up my corvette project i'd love to get one to play with. Love this channel
Mine too! Very fortunate to have it and definitely wouldn’t be any fun to just put around in lol. What year vett do you have? I used to have a c3 and loved that car.
@@JohnnyAnderson1 working on a C6! Used to be into mustangs but would really like to have a 5-600 wheel 79-81 Z28 🤘just something to have a little fun in, love the classics. I gotta say man nobody can drive and hold a burn out like you!!
I put a 67 400 engine and transmission a 66 tempest with a limited slip rear. That tip would just spin and spin. 200' plus. I'd keep rotating the tires. 😂 lol once I was rolling a bit it was okay. But anything under 40mph you guessed it a big cloud of rubber
Hey I’m really interested in building a car and ls swapping it. Can you give a ballpark on what it costs and what’s some good platform cars that are ideal for it?
Anything that came with a small block chevy would be the cheapest and esiest to swap. Cost varys so much its hard to give a estimate depending on your skill level and how much bargan shopping your willing to do. I did mine for around $3500, but that was before everything skyrocketed on prices. I would bet my original setup would not be over $5000 for the same stuff. But if you just want to do a stock 5.3, and you are highly skilled you could swap that in place of a SBC for under $2000 and upgrade it later.
@@kevinanderson2806 At this power level it is working fine with the static 58 psi fuel pressure and 80lb injectors. If I remember right there were some people running over 700whp with the corvette filter.
What transmission are you running and stall are you running, and what rear gear ratio do you have? Seems fast and wanted to possibly go with this setup
When on the street it will hit a max of 9psi in 3rd gear. I honestly have no idea about the transmission, it was a th350 that was rebuilt back in the 90's and came out of a mid 70's nova with a stock 350. It is not a manual valve body.
@@JohnnyAnderson1 that’s awesome with the trans! This makes me pretty pumped for my car I’m doing 89 Cadillac brougham 4.8 truck Norris cam gt45 th400 trans
@@JohnnyAnderson1 2600stall and just picked up a 96 roadmaster differential it’s a 2.93 limited slip 🤘🏼 think I’m now going to use you fuel system idea as-well with the corvette filter and run the return back down the original feed line. Was going to just run the return style truck fuel rail with regulator but your set up looks to be doing great, I’m not looking for huge power right away.
@@chadreitzel1570 At my power level im getting plenty of fuel with this setup, your car will probably be a little slow till the 60ft mark but then it will pull like jet. Should make a great cruiser and put a big smile on anyones face who rides in it. (or scare them lol)
Carb and nitrous (with big cam and high stall) = SUPER easy setup with instant power Turbo = 10X more complicated and time consuming but no bottles to fill and can make insane power without touching the engine. That’s a tough question though, what do you plan to do with the car? There are many days I wish I would have just stuck a 200 plate under my carb and called it good. But for street driving the lower stall stock 5.3 + turbo is definitely better.
@@Kayaan_thegreat if you have the fabrication skills since it will mostly be a street car I would say go with the turbo and if you do I HIGHLY recommend getting the Holley terminator to make tuning easy. If you don’t wanna mess with fabbing stuff up and the headache of running piping and fuel lines then stick with a carb and a decent cam/stall. What size engine will you be using? If a 6.0 or 6.2 then you can make plenty of power with a carb. If using the nitrous a lot you will find yourself running out constantly.

I absolutely love these cars
Those long burnouts with speed are sick man 👍
They were fun, and terrifying at the same time lol

@@NoMercyGTCS C6s are probably one of the funnest cars ever to drive, LOVE ripping in one of them.
Haha thanks man.
that last burnout had some nice smoke and distance. niceeee
That's some good driving there Sir. Sounds like you have the tune set to Spicey
Haha thanks, it’s running good for sure but still has more in it.
@@JohnnyAnderson1 get it!
badass car brother glad to see someone use it like i do i got a 70 bird!
NIce! you got a new sub lol

That's my life lol
Just got a new subscriber💪💪
got a similar setup going in my 1990 gmc sierra c1500 2wd with 3.42 gears. great video love it
it will be a beast!
Sweet!! I'm wanting to do a 6.2 6 speed swap in my 79 Formula......
That will be a great combo! I’d love to have a 6speed in mine one day!
Please more videos
Yes sir!
Got a question did you use factory pushrods or do u know what size are they
😂that is stupid how you can just smoke em all the way down the street. I love it 😂
Yea it’s a little ridiculous with these tires lol
this video is goated
lol

What wiring? Did u use
Forgot my wallet 🤣🤣
Was wondering if anyone noticed lol
Sounds awesome! Are you still running the Corvette fuel filter?
Thank you! Yes, running an in-line pump feeding the corvette fuel filter and used the factory feed line as the return from the filter.
Ok, gotcha so you don't run a boost dependant regulator at all? Any issues?
@@kevinanderson2806 At this power level it is working fine with the static 58 psi fuel pressure and 80lb injectors. If I remember right there were some people running over 700whp with the corvette filter.
@@JohnnyAnderson1 Got it, thank you for the info. Great build been following since the carb!
What transmission are you running and stall are you running, and what rear gear ratio do you have? Seems fast and wanted to possibly go with this setup
In description, TH350 and stock 3.08 rear gear with spool
@@JohnnyAnderson1 wow that’s pretty good
Did it have a stall converter or did you leave it stock
@@abrahamsturges5105 it’s a cheapo 10” converter from summit, 2800-3000 I believe
@@abrahamsturges5105 sorry I thought I had all that in the description lol any questions feel free to ask
How much boost? Also is the th350 manual valve body or stock with governor and modulator mods?

What 5.3 is it?
Lm7 unknown miles
Should i go turbo or carb nd nitrous
Carb and nitrous (with big cam and high stall) = SUPER easy setup with instant power
Turbo = 10X more complicated and time consuming but no bottles to fill and can make insane power without touching the engine.

Racing light to light not going to track just want it to have sum power and burn rubber
