Just for fun, I want one of the Big Three to just build an efficient gas guzzler (an oxymoron, for sure but hold on) that is as fun to work on as it is to run. I had an old Ford F100 4x4 that was a Forest Service relic from 1967. It had a 352. It was the most beautiful hunk of iron that I ever owned, and I kick myself every time I think back to the day I sold it. (I'm no longer with the €unt who insisted I get rid of it).. anyway, that engine had never had a nut turned on that engine. The only picadillo that it had was in the passenger side exhaust manifolds lower, closest to the firewall, bolt that always worked it's way loose. It started sounding like the proverbial ghetto sled with an exhaust leak after about a tank of gas. So every time I filled it up I just tightened it up, added a quart of oil, and some lead additive. No big deal, right? In fact it was so consistent that I just went to a pawn shop and bought a breaker bar and a socket that I kept behind the seat with my rife and shotgun for convenience. Simple, right...? The point is that if we stop pressuring the car and truck manufacturers to produce the things we want rather than the things they force on us, we might as well just check ourselves into one of the concentration camps they want us to live in, and die. We will never be able to get back something that is so far gone that the idea, and the values attached to the idea, will have been lost in time. All gearheads should continually be sending off emails and complaining to thes companies to keep making dinosaurs like the carbureted V8, or we'll just stop buying.. I know, your comment is incoherent, and the Oxymoron was never addressed, but I don't care. You see, it's like the auto manufacturers, the idea that the conclusion is going to be a good one, has just proven to be a story. And that unless an effort is made, the story will just be an example of the €unt who convinced me that I should get rid of that beautiful old truck, and in the end I am just a sad guy with the memories of what could have been. If you don't want to see the V8 disappear, you'll have to make an effort... Call the fuckers and be a pain in the ass!
@@davidcisneros1429 if you cut out all emissions systems on gas or especially diesel engines, they can run amazing, tons of power, extremely high efficiency. But terrible emissions.

GM is still going all electric... But this engine is for the heavy duty series trucks.

Stop whining about GM's current V8 lineup. GM is currently #1 in truck sales (look it up) and their V8s are swapped into projects 10X as much as Ford & Chrysler put together. There are reasons for that.
V8 are sometimes required for trucks , but its not like were back. They often cost more due to govt regulation they add cost to them and that limits the number sold
I’ve lost hope in GM… it’ll prob be a new 5.3 with 360hp and they’ll call it cutting edge technology. Their next truck engine should come standard with at least 385hp or more, And not have to go up $6k on trim level to get it!
on the downside the truck plant right next door, is not so far slated to run trucks past 2028. last assembly plant left in Flint. I know its a UAW contract year and UAW local is working on getting flint assembly beyond 2028.
Maybe it will have some new sexy valve tech, i would love to see that because depending on the tech the engine could have low fuel consumption and also make power (vvt and vvl could make it possible)
I have become fascinated with electric propulsion. I think GM's electric kink is going in the right direction. We're still driving Volts. (Made at Detroit - Hamtramck Assembly )
This already exists with the LT6:LT7 in the Corvette. The new smallblock could be some version of this. But it’s unlikely that it wound have a flat crank in trucks.
I feel like you would look better if you move the camera up a lil, this angle is a lil unflattering. You probably look just fine, just this angle isn’t working.
GM better notice that the engine will run better without Cylinder Deactivation, Will Have Cathedral Port Exhaust headers, minimal 6.2 Displacement, Maybe Twin Spark with a Crossplane Crankshaft
@@GIGABACHI There is the LT6/LT7 Gemini, which has a flatplane crank. Admittedly, despite the LT designation, it’s not exactly a Gen V. But GM COULD be working on a detuned crossplane crank version of this motor for trucks. Of course, it is unlikely that this motor would have either cathedral ports or dual spark plugs due to its DOHC four valve design (unless they built a pushrod version for trucks, which is possible).

Maybe it will have some new sexy valve tech, i would love to see that because depending on the tech the engine could have low fuel consumption and also make power (vvt and vvl could make it possible)
Quite possibly that ‘sexy valve tech’ commonly referred to as ‘overhead cam’. Specifically, a crossplane crank version of the LT6 Gemini.
Though we’re supposed to be going all electric. Good to hear big business doesn’t really give a hoot.
Man they need to bring the MC back!
I have become fascinated with electric propulsion. I think GM's electric kink is going in the right direction. We're still driving Volts. (Made at Detroit - Hamtramck Assembly )
Keep the V8s alive GM.
How about a transmission to go along with it
Another motor you need specialty tools to work on !
Woo wooooo GM just bought us Petrol heads more time on the road that alone is great news and it’s a V8!!!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
If they would fix the transmission problems that’d be great👍
I work at the flint plant thats getting the v8
Call me a nostalgic ol' fart: '72 Toranado, '69 Sedan de Ville, '68 Camaro, anything from '58, 73 Impala late 20s Caddies etc, etc.... Viva la GM!
Twin turbo small block v8s for full size trucks bring it on bet ha
Great news! Kudos to GM and the UAW!!
They r3leased a 7.2 and dodge still suits on them and shovels it down there throats
Would have preferred that close to a billion went into finding a way to reduce costs to make cars cost less than a house.
If they can figure out how to reduce the Lifter failure, to almost nothing. It'd be so nice
Please General Motors make it correctly like you did with 3800 six. Or the LS engine with well made parts
Did that man just cross thread that bolt on the flywheel? Sure it got stuck half way
Yes they should start by hand first. Training is important
Yall see the size of that ladies arm? Keeping America beatin.
I hope it's the 5.7 blueprint again.
Better fix those wiring issues if they want to be number one again
BRING BACK A DEAD MUSCLE CAR GM AHHHHH THROW THAT V8 in it!!!!!
How about a flat plane crank V8?
How many are tired of the 90 degree crank?
How about using Pontiac 2.25 inch rod journals, 😃?
This already exists with the LT6:LT7 in the Corvette. The new smallblock could be some version of this. But it’s unlikely that it wound have a flat crank in trucks.
They need to focus on quality control to improve the product line and maybe modernize the style like a European segment.
Fint Michigan... Can they drink the water yet?
Long live the ICE!
I was expecting him to say that they were going to work towards synthetic fuel
So we’re just going to ignore how ol buddy in the video tried to start the fly wheel bolt..with an impact… and kept missing the threads?
They are not as invested in electric as they say. They are for wherever the money is
Dude I knew it was hella expensive to bring an all new engine to market guy goddam I didn't know it was that expensive
Awesome 🎉
Might as well, the LS is out and now the LT is king of the streets.
King of the side of the road seized up sure. Lts are still hot garbage. Coyote is still the king of modern muscle.
Yup, keep that total cost around 72K, right?
How about HUST MAKE A RELIABLE, LASTING engine???
I feel like you would look better if you move the camera up a lil, this angle is a lil unflattering. You probably look just fine, just this angle isn’t working.
Let’s hope they use less plastic parts. Try and make them durable
As long as they’re not doing that cylinder, deactivation garbage that destroys camshaft and lifters and sends metal shavings throughout the engine
GM better notice that the engine will run better without Cylinder Deactivation, Will Have Cathedral Port Exhaust headers, minimal 6.2 Displacement, Maybe Twin Spark with a Crossplane Crankshaft
All LS/LT engines already have crossplane cranks.
@@GIGABACHI There is the LT6/LT7 Gemini, which has a flatplane crank. Admittedly, despite the LT designation, it’s not exactly a Gen V. But GM COULD be working on a detuned crossplane crank version of this motor for trucks. Of course, it is unlikely that this motor would have either cathedral ports or dual spark plugs due to its DOHC four valve design (unless they built a pushrod version for trucks, which is possible).
YES
Since GM is doing so good financially maybe they should pay the tax payers back for that bail out money we were forced to give them
Only after Joe gives back his 10%.
@@phuk4549 10% for the big guy
Did Ford pay back the six billion dollars for the echo boost?
I can’t wait to swap this new motor
Yaaay GM!
So what's new?
Hopefully they will leave the AFM/DFM out of the plans
No chance they're giving up the fuel economy tech. The question is what new tech will they add
If we don't get a de tuned c8 engine I'm the trucks I'll be disappointed
The OG small block still does
Be difficult to improve the LS,
without major redesigning
