RIP Joe. HorsePower was Must see tv for me. Thank you.
"today we're gonna rebuild an entire car and put a new engine transmission suspension interior and roll cage in it, and we'll show you how!" ....25 seconds later : "alright! we're finished, glad you followed along with us!"
Yeah that’s commin right up
You forgot the $60,000+ in parts and about another $20,000 in labor. LOL
I used to watch horsepower tv in my teens I'm 34 now love this show.
Why does powernation love putting carbureted engines in autocross cars so much
Because they get paid to.
Tbh im thinking going Carb or throttlebody EFI just for the easy and clean of wiring, tuning and throttle response
They will use whatever sponsored parts they get, and that's fine. Nothing wrong..
More reliable I guess
No shit that’s fucken stupid
Wow, glad to see this. Makes the front suspension installation easier to understand. Wanted to get full umi for the front but im guessing all bmr front suspension with umi sway bars
Finally a 98-02 Camaro episode lol
So many negative comments about old tech. Well, that's because this isn't new. It's prolly 8 - 10 years old. Joe hasn't been a host for PN for a long time. It's still relevant though, because a lot of people can't afford a 15K build. If done today would prolly be 8K. Kinda fun for a weekend beater.
You need to do part 2 now !!!
Having a carburetor on a LS is like running .38 special in a .357 magnum. I feel like this whole channel outdated lol.
So fuel injection is old dated as well
@@Ls3guy How so? What else are you going to run on a combustion engine besides a carb or fuel injection? It's one or the other lol.
@@austinadams8792 I know
There's specific rules to the autocross competition that they are building the car for, carburetors only in the class they are running..
10:25 "Now I've seen people use logs, cinder blocks, even stacked 2×4s to support the weight of the car. Now, we've also seen those type of people in the obituaries. So just use your head." 😳
I've used a lot more than that... LOL
Pretty sure a cinder block can hold more than a head.
Natural selection.
4th gen is life!
I want to see the guys that help do all the work.!!! 😆
Couldn’t agree w you more - these shows are a complete joke
they hire the whole crew from the nearby jiffy lube to do the off camera work
Jealous much? Y’all act like they filmed this in a day... 😂
@@justinpoore2938 nobody’s Jealous mate, it’s just clear that they themselves didn’t do all the work, considering how often they pump out these videos, and how many projects they have. It’s obvious that with something like this, where they have a RUclips channel as well as a tv channel, they have an entire crew.
@@bowl-of-chicken-soup7107obviously or they would have these episodes once a month lol ofc if you wanna upload full Car Rebuilds and have money you have gonna have a crew to install it dummy
RIP to one of the Greatest 💪🏽🛠🇺🇸
I'm starting a 2000 Camaro of my son's. Same suspension and chassis upgrades, and K member. Different motor and trans. Great platform to start off.
Good luck with the build
what motor? any idea if the 3.8 fits on that k member?
@@GabrielTheGuitarist two different k members, v8-v6.
Only thing missing from that Camaro is the Midwest chassis lightweight bumper supports
At 9:20 the BMR Crossmember relocates the torque arm NOT the panhard bar.
glad someone else caught that.
True
I was gonna say, how the hell is that gonna relocate the panhard bar.
Catfish will always have my heart!
Same!
“We also see those kinds of people in the obituaries” 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣💀💀💀💀
Next episode please
WooHoo, Project LS Gun is back.
That's the kinda of job I would love Assembling chargers
Especially if they give employees a discount
Where is the testing of this camaro? I want to see the results but can’t find it in your video
The Camaro looked almost New before you replaced the parts.....🤔🤨
Rip 🪦 Joe Elmore I had to come back and watch this episode
I love the catfish, probably more than any other car.. LS1 is way under powered in todays terms tho.. dropping a fresh TSP 427 LS7 would have been the way to go IMO. and it needs at least 335 tires for the square if autocross is the desire.
Old episode thing where diffrent 8 to 10 years ago
you're talking about putting a $23,000 engine in a budget build hot rod. Think about the context of this build vs just throwing the most insane turn key motor you can find on the internet.
LS1s are affordable and have usable power tho.
305's are about the widest you can fit without rolling the lip, and those can still rub depending on the back spacing. I'm running 295's on the rear of mine.
The ls1 is a slouch? Guess thats news to me. I got a ls6 build in my camaro. Running nitrous this season on 305's. It's like a budget hellcat spanker ls1/ls6 same stuff
FINALLY!! I’ve been wondering about these episodes
I always found it funny that they put the latest and best parts for the cars then put in an induction system from 1910.
EFI tuning is boomer kryptonite, I really expected Mike to step in with some new tricks. Perhaps there's less red tape involved in taking factory EFI and going carbureted vs ditching the factory EFI and getting a standalone ECU.
The EPA and California laws are really hurting the tuning community. It's not good enough to just slap a sticker on the product and say "for off-road use only"
Jesus loves you !
Congratulations to the entire team including the Edelbrocks. Everything was laid out and explained in an interesting manner.
The ending segment was worth a thousand words.
Thank God for all of you !!
i hope you put that Edelbrock blower on the autocross camaro
If I want to lift the front of my 1997 camaro 3 inches what spindle do I need
I love Camaro's!
Stopped watching at air suspension. 🙋♂️
Exactly 😂
It sure is nice to have sponsors
They didn't modify the rear end at all????
Where on earth do you find these episodes for horsepower and extreme 4x4??? They film those near me.
Wow can't believe Joe Elmore is still doing this
They fixed up A Camaro and then at the end test drove a Corvette? What happened to the Camaro?
Was thinking the same thing!? I rewound it thinking maybe I missed it just wasn't paying attention. Nope. No camaro🤷♂️
Are those seats certified?
Whatever happened to ole Mike Galley anyway..?
The trans crossmember doubles as a panhard bar relocation bracket? I think he meant to say torque arm. Also I don't know why you would want to run a carb instead of fuel injection. You can get more power from fuel injection because of the tuning capability.
There not allowed to use fuel injection on these cars for this type of race 💯💯👍👍😎
Need to see a car like this for drag racing
FBodies are the premium Dragsters
I love it so much! It’s so beautiful
R.i.p vic Jr
No link for suspension parts?
Why not cover the glass and interior parts when welding? The welding sparks will embed in the glass. Pure laziness
Is there another episode of the finished car?
I like the Camaro and Trans am but HATE that you have to drop the suspension in order to take the engine out. I've seen one guy take the engine out from the top but it was such a hassle
Its not that much of a hassle. Just took a longblock and trans out together, from the top, at a friends place on a gravel ground with a thin piece of plywood. Took all of 2 and a half hours from a fully dressed car in a garage that left 1 foot of room on each side of the car.
I wonder what kind of jack stands they were using…
I want to see a video on the SS Monte Carlo 😮😮💯💯💯💯
What’s the part number for the roll cage
You lost me when you said "carbureted engine". I immediately had to forward into the video to see if you were actually going to use carbureted induction.
I KNOW RIGHT! Why in the world would you do that?
@@theforerunners5171 why do they use carbs in 2021?
@@joshwalsh1260 it's a old episode. At one time was easier and cheaper to throw a crab on there. Tuners have come ALONG way in the last 8 to 10 years
what's wrong with a carbi nascar still use it must still be good choose joke
Rip joe elmore
Kept the live rear axle?
Can someone give me the link to the next episode regarding this episode
I wish everyday blue collar working people could afford to fix cars up like this. This is a rich person hobby
Kinda but not really bro. I'm average. I took about 2 years to put my LQ9 together. Now I'm about to find a camaro for less than $1500. It takes some time but it's not too hard. Just have to work hard and save money lol. Now a full suspension will hurt me a bit. I will be buying it by peices not the whole kit.
It all depends on how much money you want to spend. Although there are some areas you shouldn't cheap out on.
You removed everything, but you forgot the radiator.
Yessir!!💯❤️
My question is why change an efi engine to carb
Does anyone know where they got the gauge cluster?
That's why superchargers are Sooo expensive
I was wondering why you can't find a quality one for a LQ4 6.0 for under $6,000
My kind of shop just drags the fuel pump across the shop, tie it up? na we getting a real one .
I would have loved to see the finished product! 🙄
Repeat Repeat Repeat! That's all these shows are anymore.
I wish this was a drag car build!!!
I have a 2002 Camaro and I just messed up the engine what engine do you recommend putting in it that is affordable
6.0
5.3
Can somebody please give me the Part numbers for the Seat and bracket thanks
I need y’all to rebuild my Fbody what’s the contact information
Ok where’s the rest of the Camaro build??
By any chance would you please pick up my Caprice??? I'll just take a tranny & engine.....I'll b so happy with that!!!!! 😁😉 great job guys.....😊
Yeah!!!!! OUR tiny budget of 2 million dollars 💸 💵 🤑 is going to be challenging but with some elbow greese 💪 and tools worth more then your house 🏠 nothing is impossible yeah!!!!!! Baby!!!!!!
How much money total was spent for this? Lol
time to ditch archaic carburetors
im assuning they do it because its cheaper
So is fuel injection
Let's go
I wonder what wheels those are
No idea
Where is the next episode
Going from efi to carb, might as well go back to horseback.
I wanna know how you guys get shit done so Fast.
movie magic
I will give them a free titled hardtop '86 IROC to not ugly a catfish '98 SS fom SLP. No foresight. I don't even like 4th gens that much, but they put up the most fight when things got real.
Shocked they kept a carb for an auto cross car!!! Turning stopping…fuel sloshing all over yet they kept a carb.crazy
Looks like their sponsor wanted a carb in it
Can’t believe they went to a carb set just ruined the build in my opinion
had to for their class they were racing in
Man if you've got this much money to spend get yourself a C5. These Camaros make fine drag cars though.
Autocross build with a roll cage and no extensive aero mods 🤔 something tells me nobody read the autox car classing guide. My STi is making around 700 to the wheels and I don't need a roll cage. Autox is typically less than 80mph anyways, for slow speeds like that you would need huge aero (like a dirt sprinter), which this obviously doesn't have. Why add all the extra weight of the roll cage?
it's to stiffen the car. plus, you don't need aero because the speeds never get that high.
wow...no helmets in autocross. Those were the days!
I dont want to see no autocross Camaro i want to see a street/strip Camaro!!!
I'd like to see both
Loved the show with Chuck. Joe was kinda a poser. Now all the shows basically suck
Man you should've kept fuel injection!!!
Why would you put a carb LS into a 4th Gen? 😑😑😑😑😑😑
Boomers
Make it less responsive and less reliable 😂
Watch as i build a new car
Things I can’t afford
Nice to infinite budget for top end parts.
All donated parts from sponsors. Notice how many times they repeated the brands of the components they installed.
Ah yes carbs instead of fuel injection, this is what happens when you let the geriatrics run your show, next they'll put bags on it instead of coils, oh wait they did
Dumping more money into it then a newer better handling better looking Camaro that’s practically equipped with the same thing lol
BMR K members are garbage. They didn’t show you putting the middle subframe bolts in because once you remove the stock k member the hole in the body where it bolts is huge and the BMR frame only has a piece of tube for mounting. It needs a large surface area like the front and rear mounting areas. Idk how a company can go so far to make a nice product and F up one thing making it looked hacked up or you have to modify it yourself
I want to see these guys work with jacks jack stands and not a decked shop on mint cars replacing everything with high quality new stuff these guys are tv parts changers
Literally the worst blower you couldve used on the car

Auto cross on air ride 😂😂
These shows are a complete joke - everything fits perfect , no delays , everything lined up on the first try etc etc etc …
Not to mention the garage looks as clean and shiny as the officers mess on barracks .
Those parts are made to bolt right on any f body camaro....so yeah it fits perfect.
Since when does the panhard bar get mounted to the transmission cross frame member?? Twice you called the torque arm the panhard bar!! Come on people get your shit straight!!!
Carb... Why.
Going back to carb on a ls car
.don't make no dam sense. Less efficient and les hp. The carb and Intake is roughly around the same price as aftermarket car style plastic intake. Even the stock ls6 and throttle body is more than adequate for 490 crank hp
