  • The UglyTruck is a was born from the idea that I'd prefer a dented and faded race truck that performs over a shiny show quality truck thats slow and stock, and I picked the worst looking truck I could find, and the UglyTruck was born! Sure, its gotten a lot less ugly over the last two years, but my absolute favorite part is what's under the hood: a turbocharged big block that makes over 1,100 lb.ft. of torque at the tires. Phase 2.0 of the UGT project will consist of a 535 cubic inch Gen VII Big Block that can make 1,700 horsepower, a 4x4 conversion for insane launches, a ‪@HolleyPerformance‬ Dominator EFI system, and lots more!

    I do very appreciate your review concerning the ULTIMATE Sleeper Silverado. If I could, I'd desire my 2005 Chevy 2500 Suburban with the 8.1, 496cc, be converted to da "turbo-dyno" stage. However, my ride is called "Da Lamb" (aka "Sleeper") when I travel on the long, long, long 4 lane Scenic Highway in Alaska. I have "smoked"some vehicles along the way as well. Keep up the excellent videos and you and the crew as well. Da Lamb mostly help folk out of massive snow banks/ditches they get themselves into during the slow winter months. Nothing beats my 4x4 Hi-Low, with plenty of torque. Big Monster Block; Her We Come! 🙂
