Stunning frame off restored 66 Chevelle with a rare and famous L78 396 bored 30 (1969 L78 per engine code) specifically built for the BDS Stage II 871 blower (anodized rotors and case for gall resistance) which is topped off with dual 825 CFM Demons converted to run on E85. Although they can be easily converted back to gas, this motor and I love E85. Its plentiful in the Cincy area, its sometimes a $1 cheaper than premium gas (currently $2.59), it produces a cooler charge (keeping the engine cooler) and its rated at 105 octane (like race gas without the price). Forged steel crank, 7/16 connecting rods, blower matched Crane Cam with 620 lift, o-ringed triple sprung square port open chambered GM Performance LS6 replacement heads, Crane Cam aluminum roller rockers, chrome moly push rods, Hooker ceramic headers, MSD coil, MSD distributor, MSD ignition box, rev limiter with boost control, TSI turbo 400 with manual valve body reverse shift pattern and trans brake. I used to think automatics were no fun until I had one with a transbrake! 4200 stall, Hurst shifter, Spicer shaft, new wheels with new Mickey rubber (skinnies up front and drag radials in the back), BeCool radiator with 2 puller and 1 pusher fans, all new front suspension and Comp Engineering drag shocks.

The exterior color is a gorgeous laser straight Zinc Yellow. New black interior, smoothed firewall, 8 point cage with dual swingouts for easy entry, painted fiberglass custom hood (that I don't currently run because it looks better without and the painted fiberglass ended up a slight shade lighter as you can see in the picture), front disc brakes, posi rear (currently with 3:23 gears for cruising), seat belts for front and rear passengers, factory console.

97k original miles. Estimated at 700 hp but that is at 10% underdrive. With a simple belt and pulley swap, the skies limit.

GM recalls 3.6 million vehicles for airbag-software problems

Fri, Sep 9 2016

The Basics: General Motors is recalling 3.64 million vehicles across its lineup for an airbag-related issue. The recall covers the 2014-2015 Buick LaCrosse, Chevrolet SS, and Spark EV; 2014-2017 Chevrolet Corvette, Trax, Caprice PPV, Silverado 1500, Buick Encore, and GMC Sierra 1500; and 2015-2017 Chevrolet Tahoe, Suburban, Silverado HD, GMC Yukon, Yukon XL, Sierra HD, Cadillac Escalade, and Escalade ESV. The Problem: Affected vehicles have a sensing and diagnostic module that controls the airbags and seat-belt pretensioners. The software it uses has a defect that can prompt the module to run a diagnostic test under specific driving conditions, which will also deactivate the front airbags and pretensioners. This means that it would be possible for those safety systems to not activate in a crash, potentially leading to injury or death. Injuries/Deaths: General Motors began an investigation that led to the recall after a 2014 Silverado was involved in a crash in which the airbags did not deploy. No information was given as to injuries or deaths. The Fix: Owners can bring their vehicles to a local General Motors dealer where a software update will be installed to fix the issue. The fix will be free of charge. If you own one: General Motors will contact owners of affected cars, and owners can check whether their vehicles are affected by visiting entering their vehicle identification numbers at either the GM Owner Center website or the NHTSA website. Owners can then schedule a time to have the update installed. Related Video:

Silverado HD, Touareg V10 TDI face off in diesel tug-of-war

Sun, 30 Dec 2012

A couple weeks ago, we watched a Chevrolet Silverado get dominated by a Dodge Ram Heavy Duty in a fullsize pickup tug-of-war, but in that truck's defense, Chevy's Vortec gas engine was no match for the torquey Cummins turbo diesel. For our next round of vehicular tug-of-war, a Duramax-powered Silverado HD takes on Volkswagen Touareg V10 TDI.
Now, on paper, putting the Duramax V8's 365 horsepower and 660 pound-feet of torque up against the V10's 310 hp and 553 lb-ft looks like an easy win for the Bowtie, but unfortunately, this battle has a similar result as the Dodge versus Chevy video, with the Silverado smoking its tires trying to move forward as it gets pulled backwards. Put another way: YouTube 2, Chevy Silverado 0.
It just goes to show, though, that big tires, bolt-on fender flares and goofy smoke stacks don't improve your towing abilities. Besides, what did the Silverado driver expect when the Touareg V10 TDI has towed a Boeing 747 in the past?
