Not only do I love the fact that this man and his crew drive their builds on a daily basis, but that they've known each other for so many decades and have stuck together. They're the real deal.
Driven not hidden! Cant wait to see it with 14x32s and paint! So many owners never get the fun, memories that this guy is cause they "are afraid to drive it". Weird
This guy is not scared to get after it and stay in it as long as he wants and is cool as a cucumber while doing it. I respect his driving demeanor. I imagine that if that truck gets sideways he would probably turn out of it pedaling the throttle and enjoy the action. In most of the episodes I have seen, the drivers get on it for a bit as long as the car is going straight. Not this man, he goes into the deep end and searches for more. He runs on Adrenaline and Dopamine.
This is why they need to bring shop classes back to schools man that man talked about his shop teacher so much my shop teacher still alive I owe him for me getting in the cars as besides my brothers and my father
This might be my favorite AutotopiaLA vid thus far. I love everything about this from the truck build, to the OG driver, to Sean's facial expressions when he mashes it. Love, Love, Love it......This is what it's about.
Best interview no doubt , I love all of the interviews & the cars but this guy is genuine with the stories and history of his life experiences , you can actually feel his passion for the people around him !! The true definition of all out fun 👉💯🔥🔥🔥✌️
That truck is insane. The driver is so amazing. He knows what he is doing!!! At 24:15 or so when he dumps it and finally gets into 4th. The look on his face, the confidence. He knew what to do. Incredible!! Amazing truck. Amazing driver. Amazing video. Thanks!!!!
I have a close relative of mine back in the day driving like a mad man in a tricked out '76 Pontiac Grand prix, having it floored, car screaming like a bat outta hell simultaneously screaming.... "I WANNA GO FASTER!!!" Yet this gentleman doing this in a 1000 hp truck in his way doing like wise? Somebody give this man a TWO THOUSAND HP engine please hurry like today!
22:57 -- new patch for every gear, absolutely sick clip, and truck. This guy looks like he'd be a blast to hangout with, and his crew. Good stuff, good stuff.
If that guy doesn't already have a RUclips CHANNEL he needs to start one cause his personality, friends, cars and club is something i would make sure to watch the instant he posts on his channel.
Roger that! I got a thing about others driving me been in too many wrecks. This guy I honestly would trust. He knows that truck like the back of his hand. Ol st racer
Absolutely incredible driver! I wish I had a mentor like he had. I would have saved myself a lot of hardships in my teens and twenties. Bring this guy back for more.
Why did I get the shivers when he hit the pedal :). Bro, this is what I wanted for my brothers and me because this is what we have grown up around. Our paps had us going in the fields with 250 cars, so we could find motors or parts for a car he wanted us to build. My brothers took a different path, and I still do what I like. I have a 57 Apache and a 1970 Ford Torino GT convertible that I'm adding some treats to it.
BLANK, LOOKS LIKE THE REAL DEAL. He explains everything so well. This episode brings me back to my street- racing days. I know this will enter some young guy or gal's want to start this way of life, but let them kind of know, what it cost to build and upkeep on some of these builds . I have seen so many lose interest and money, by getting too deep into a build. ..
Man this video gave me absolute hills and goosebumps. That man can drive his freakin ASS OFF! What a great guy! That truck is an absolute animal! Them drag radials where screaming for dear life. You can tell the intensity in his face but its just effortless and hes so at home and relaxed. UNBELIEVABLE! One of the best videos ever! Thank you!
Awesome Truck Blank!! 5.3 is probably the best engine that Chevy has put out. It’s versatile and hard working and reliable. You really don’t need a bunch of money to make a build like that, it’s more labor and tweaking. Great Video Shawn and I would love to meet Blank and his crew. Lots of knowledge to absorb, just freaking awesome.
I LOVE THE PART ABOUT DRIVING…! HE WAS TALKING ABOUT MOVING THE STEERING WHEEL JUST SO MUCH, AND HES RIGHT ESPECIALLY A QUICK RATIO STEERING BOX AND YOU MIGHT HAVE TO FEATHER THAT THROTTLE EVER SO LIGHTLY THE SAME .. USED TO DO ALOT OF STREET RACING / DRIFTING BACK IN THE EARLY 70’S…! I HAD RELATIVES AND FRIENDS THAT COULD NOT BELIEVE HOW FAR OUT OF SHAPE I COULD TAKE IT WITHOUT CRASHING AND NEVER DID…! LOVE TO HANG WITH THIS DUDE AND PICK HIS BRAIN…SO COOL…🏁🏁😎
Love this truck !! Unbelievable power from 5.3 LS. Nice to see all the convertibles settling around. Don’t see them in East Tennessee. Glad I found this channel
What a great teacher he had- getting the kids into drag racing. And WOW beautiful truck. Love the 55 step side. Love seeing a REAL driver-Blank is my new favourite racer man. You gotta shoot more of this crew.
I really do appreciate this episode. Blank's driving skills and his beast of a truck had me smiling from ear to ear and hollering hell yeah. He lays serious rubber in and through all 4 gears!!! I love it!!! Should call it "The Yellow Streak."
I've replayed that "it can get busy" part 100 times..favorite episode hands down and he's not even thru with it yet 🤯get him on again when finishes it up
9 out of 10 drivers would pile this up in a 2 week period (if that long) if they tried to drive this truck like this. Kudos to this builder and driver. Great video as well.
I just started watching this channel a few days ago and I gotta say this is my favorite episode. They’re all good, but this just hits different. The passion, story and human element makes it special. Can’t believe he’s running like that on leaf springs. Dude knows his truck and can drive. I’d be scared stless.
I’ve been watching this channel for a long time know and honestly this is one of the most genuine and special vids you guys have ever put out you can see the sheer friendship/happiness that’s real plus my man blank is a bad mother-trucker 1 in a million kinda guy 💙🇬🇧
To say this is one of my favorites is saying a lot with the cars and trucks on this channel. It's not just the truck it's the vibes you get from this guy, love it
I love this, man!! This is the pinnacle of what the love of cars is about. It breaks through all barriers. What an awesome group of guys and their amazing rides. Much love!! God bless all y'all!!
If I was to build a truck. It would be that one. The reaction was classic. Brought tears in my eyes knowing that man can scare people with that thing.. those guys would be a lot of fun to hang out with. The auto knowledge that those guys have with their history of racing.. I would enjoy that.
I had a 55 & this brings but memories. That big ole steering wheel. Mine was just an old truck. It had a 6 cylinder 3 on the tree. Turn the ignition switch and hit the starter pedal on the floor. Blank's truck is bad ass. Great video...
I love this type of builds were the owners know what's in their cars and not readings some fancy shop build sheet they prepared for them.. i love the episodes most gar guy's can relate to.. well done Sir.
Im on my dinner break here in the uk🇬🇧 and i had to watch this video twice and how that truck left black lines up the road was amazing i love all your videos but this one is the best one for me the guy who owns that truck was the real deal built fast to go fast. All the best jason from the uk 🇬🇧
I would not change anything on this nasty 55 .the best thing about your truck is the fact that you have all of that power and you have managed to get that twist to the real estate with a factory framework.much respect
An example of how WE, people can be when we share our interests and eliminate our prejudices . Hobbies like this are one way my old & new friends counteract negativity!😊 6:39
i have been watching your channel for a long time, and you have had some fast cars and trucks but this truck... Man Brother has a bad ass real truck.. from the moment you 2 got in that truck every single time he got on it he left posi tracks all the way 1st 2nd 3rd you can see out the back window, when you camera crew films it.. that was hands down one of the nicest guys and bad bad bad Ass trucks you have ever shown.. props and the utmost RESPECT for the Gentleman that uses his truck for work and play. he was taught right that is a fact.. props to his Mom and Shop Teacher also for getting him right
I honestly don’t know what is cooler the truck with that sleeper boost set up or the owner himself… both are like the final boss to a car video game… don’t know what hit you until its too late and with a smile 😂
Blank's personality is so cool, dude is so cool and fun. If I were out in CA I'd so make a point to go to an event with him and the Hood crew. They sound like genuine fun, positive, and energetic great people that we need more of in this great place. Thank you and keep on building and enjoying them sweet rides! In addition at 18:00 i was waitin for the truck to leave nothin but flame tracks and go back in time! WOW is that puppy live!
My favorite episode of the channel! I've watched this entire video about 6 times already, just great people and education all around! Thanks Sean/AutoTopia!!!!
One of my favorite AutotopiaLA episodes for sure! Badass truck and hell of a great guy and club! Makes me wish I had my old 57 Chevy truck back I sold 25 years ago.
Very cool truck. A little optimistic on 1000hp at 8psi on a 5.3. You'd need around 650na to reach a 1000 flywheel hp with no efficiency loss. Probably closer to 18 psi for 1000 flywheel hp.
Dude this is sick. I love this. I have a garage here in utah and i love building drivers. I tell my customers i don't care how nice the work i did is. I did the work to be enjoyed man!
Man o man, I haven't sat down with some good ole boys and slapped some BONES down in years ! ! ! ! Killer truck and cooler folks. This is a good one Shawn . 😎🤙
Perfect build! Absolutely vulcanizes tires and can still haul a fridge home! I understand what he's talking about. I'm the same when driving; cars talk to you. I believe it is a gift from God. You feel the physics of everything happening, in conjunction with an understanding of how everything works. I've scared many passengers while cool as a cucumber. The worst is riding a motorcycle with lots of HP and mismatched suspension. It doesn't give you the proper feedback to ride it to the limits. And sometimes just the tires will be "dead" and not give any feedback. You know you're a gearhead when you're a Ford guy, but LS Chevs still give you a stiffy!! A+ vid !!
Best interview and vehicle I've seen yet, simple setup(It has to go into boost a sometime, I don't know how you can get 1000 hp out of a 5.3 unless your in boost), I have a similar 6.0 setup coming on my 1972 chevelle which will kick in boost at 3500 rpm 56mm Borg Warner's.
Nice truck, dude seems to know what he's talking about but I'm calling bullshit. No sbe 5.3 making 1k hp on gate. He's a carb guy, don't know shit about efi. Maybe capable of 1k on a max effort tune, but that's a stretch. I want to see the dyno sheet. 😂😂
Im assuming when he kept saying "no boost" he meant that it gets only 1-3 PSI cause of how its set up. But yeah I dont see how else you get a 5.3 to 1000hp with zero boost.
I tell you this. Blank speaks truth to being one with the vehicle. Most people can't relate. He was cool and collected. Amazing truck. Amazing crew. Smile people. Life is too short. Be passionate about what you love.

Not only do I love the fact that this man and his crew drive their builds on a daily basis, but that they've known each other for so many decades and have stuck together. They're the real deal.
Those are the best kinds of stories. I desire that for me and my car buddies.
Bebest comment brother
&-❤
3:13 6:08 d🎉 7:🎉😅
Bad dude that do can drive that's what I like seeing stuff nothing show cars
Dude straps a fridge to 1000hp classic truck! This is what hot roddin is! Love these home builds.
Insane truck 1000 horses....
Driven not hidden! Cant wait to see it with 14x32s and paint!
So many owners never get the fun, memories that this guy is cause they "are afraid to drive it". Weird
@gordocarbo i think it looks so cool as it is
It threw me off when he said no boost it makes 1000hp. But what he means is at wastegate boost at 8psi it makes 1000hp. Lol! Love this truck!
Yea I was initially confused and scratching my head. But only spring pressure and no additional boost added.
Street racing talk. Can tell this guy mainly talks cars when he's betting 😅
Thanks I was wondering about that too. He actually didn’t answer the question properly
Lol no 1k at 8 pounds on 5.3
At first I called BS that math ain’t mathin lol
This guy is not scared to get after it and stay in it as long as he wants and is cool as a cucumber while doing it. I respect his driving demeanor. I imagine that if that truck gets sideways he would probably turn out of it pedaling the throttle and enjoy the action. In most of the episodes I have seen, the drivers get on it for a bit as long as the car is going straight. Not this man, he goes into the deep end and searches for more. He runs on Adrenaline and Dopamine.
He’s a real deal hard driver
Hes a pro
He's the man , he knows exactly what he's doing unfortunately not everyone that's been featured on the show is on the same level as BLANK .
If you like that you'll like "sketchy vert" that guy never lets off lmao
This is a bonafide Wheelman for sure! That man can frigging drive!
This gentleman purely owns the spirit of what it means to be an auto enthusiast and I love it. This is one of these best episodes yet!
Seriously 😂😂😂
👍
24:19 Look at the man's eyes, man. That's a man of focus right there.
I'm glad I wasn't the only one that noticed it.
yup, you can't blink, a lot can happen in the blink of an eye
Hes in total control not driving via adrenaline.
Veteran st racer for sure!
This is why they need to bring shop classes back to schools man that man talked about his shop teacher so much my shop teacher still alive I owe him for me getting in the cars as besides my brothers and my father
I'm sold!!!! I'm stopping every Old school truck i see until i buy one. Best interview/video on the net. Drive it OG!!!!!!!!!!!!
This one is for sale! If interested email me and I’ll set you up
@@AutotopiaLA but he said take all my other cars but not this truck
bro i love guys like him - just having a good time, no show off - just laughing his ass off and having fun
Used to have buddies come over to my garage when I was 19...too much fun we would all help eachother with our rides, hit the tittle bar etc.
Miss that
This might be my favorite AutotopiaLA vid thus far. I love everything about this from the truck build, to the OG driver, to Sean's facial expressions when he mashes it. Love, Love, Love it......This is what it's about.
Same
Me too. Sean was genuinely surprised and having a blast.
İlk gazladığında ki yüz ifadesi 😂
Best interview no doubt , I love all of the interviews & the cars but this guy is genuine with the stories and history of his life experiences , you can actually feel his passion for the people around him !! The true definition of all out fun 👉💯🔥🔥🔥✌️
This is my favorite episode...I like old skool down to earth people that loves cars...period
Bring Blank back with another of his builds. Had to watch this one twice
you know alotta guys talk it up and say they never lost but with this guy you know hes forreal
That truck is insane. The driver is so amazing. He knows what he is doing!!! At 24:15 or so when he dumps it and finally gets into 4th. The look on his face, the confidence. He knew what to do. Incredible!! Amazing truck. Amazing driver. Amazing video. Thanks!!!!
he shat himself talking about he loves it 😂

The way he fought that steering wheel omfg!!! Fker was focused and had that tunnel vision. Very impressive driver indeed. Love it!!!!
@@chinaman69.1 I wouldnt be surprised if someone started prarie doggin riding shotgun, adrenalin is a funny thing. Awesome ride
22:57 -- new patch for every gear, absolutely sick clip, and truck. This guy looks like he'd be a blast to hangout with, and his crew. Good stuff, good stuff.
TO BE HONEST, THIS IS MY FAVORITE EPISODE TO DATE! PLEASE COLLAB MORE WITH THIS MAN AND THE CLUB🙏
We’ve done a few with HMC and will definitely do more soon. Cool bunch of people
@@AutotopiaLA cool car
@@AutotopiaLAhi
@AutotopiaLA I enjoy this episode. Very cool 😎 👌🏿
Hands down one of my favorite shoots yet thank you Sean and thank you Blank for the ride!!!! 👍🏻
Your face when he said "It gets busy" 😂 priceless. Nice interview, love the fact that they're more like a family than a car club.
These are good people and it’s always a fun time shooting with them. Blank is pure cool
I keep coming back to this video just to get a good laugh from seeing the looks on Shawn's face when Blank punches it. Classic!
My favorite episode by far. The energy is where it needs to be at all times.
Thanks. One of my favorites too

Need to see em whip the hellcats
Gotta do another one with him man with one of his other cars. Dude can definitely drive💪🏼💪🏼
Yes for sure,I'd like to see that El Camino.
Roger that! I got a thing about others driving me been in too many wrecks.
This guy I honestly would trust. He knows that truck like the back of his hand.
Ol st racer
Blank would be the perfect wheel man.. sweet truck!!!
Mr. Grey! .....You created a monster!!!!!!....Hats off to you Sir!!!!
Absolutely incredible driver! I wish I had a mentor like he had. I would have saved myself a lot of hardships in my teens and twenties. Bring this guy back for more.
This guy is def an OG street racer. You got to do more on these guys.
Every comment are a summary of how the aficionados and enthusiasts at Hood bring a zest for life and the appreciation to the hobby
One of the realist truck guys you’ve interviewed. Props to him, his build and his crew.
Seriously? "realist"? This guy lied about his HP on just engine and 200MPH! This is thee CAP man ever interviewed!
@@fablesattables744 He said on the wastegate not na
Why did I get the shivers when he hit the pedal :). Bro, this is what I wanted for my brothers and me because this is what we have grown up around. Our paps had us going in the fields with 250 cars, so we could find motors or parts for a car he wanted us to build. My brothers took a different path, and I still do what I like. I have a 57 Apache and a 1970 Ford Torino GT convertible that I'm adding some treats to it.
Sounds like you’ve got some cool rides. This truck is a beast
That's as Southern California Car culture as it gets, Blanks you are a legend.. Thanks for Holding it down for Southern California..
BLANK, LOOKS LIKE THE REAL DEAL. He explains everything so well. This episode brings me back to my street- racing days. I know this will enter some young guy or gal's want to start this way of life, but let them kind of know, what it cost to build and upkeep on some of these builds
. I have seen so many lose interest and money, by getting too deep into a build.
..
Man this video gave me absolute hills and goosebumps. That man can drive his freakin ASS OFF! What a great guy! That truck is an absolute animal! Them drag radials where screaming for dear life. You can tell the intensity in his face but its just effortless and hes so at home and relaxed.
UNBELIEVABLE! One of the best videos ever! Thank you!
Awesome Truck Blank!! 5.3 is probably the best engine that Chevy has put out. It’s versatile and hard working and reliable. You really don’t need a bunch of money to make a build like that, it’s more labor and tweaking. Great Video Shawn and I would love to meet Blank and his crew. Lots of knowledge to absorb, just freaking awesome.
I LOVE THE PART ABOUT DRIVING…! HE WAS TALKING ABOUT MOVING THE STEERING WHEEL JUST SO MUCH, AND HES RIGHT ESPECIALLY A QUICK RATIO STEERING BOX AND YOU MIGHT HAVE TO FEATHER THAT THROTTLE EVER SO LIGHTLY THE SAME .. USED TO DO ALOT OF STREET RACING / DRIFTING BACK IN THE EARLY 70’S…! I HAD RELATIVES AND FRIENDS THAT COULD NOT BELIEVE HOW FAR OUT OF SHAPE I COULD TAKE IT WITHOUT CRASHING AND NEVER DID…! LOVE TO HANG WITH THIS DUDE AND PICK HIS BRAIN…SO COOL…🏁🏁😎
Love this truck !! Unbelievable power from 5.3 LS. Nice to see all the convertibles settling around. Don’t see them in East Tennessee. Glad I found this channel
Welcome to the channel. The HMC guys are a cool bunch
witch part of east TN you from?
What a great teacher he had- getting the kids into drag racing. And WOW beautiful truck. Love the 55 step side. Love seeing a REAL driver-Blank is my new favourite racer man. You gotta shoot more of this crew.
Had guys like that on my block building their musclecars up when I was a 70s kid. I was thegeek on a schwinn stingray that had to help or watched.
Blank, you exemplify the heart & spirit of what we love. Great video
Bad ass truck. My man Blank is legit behind that wheel. Good stuff!!!
How can I find Mr Blank? Would love to hear more about his other cars & races
I really do appreciate this episode. Blank's driving skills and his beast of a truck had me smiling from ear to ear and hollering hell yeah. He lays serious rubber in and through all 4 gears!!! I love it!!! Should call it "The Yellow Streak."
Insane truck, definitely one of the best episodes
When i watch a video and get tears of joy i know im watching the right video. Boy oh boy that man can drive.
Yea, I definitely had tears of joy and chills. The energy was amazing.
I've replayed that "it can get busy" part 100 times..favorite episode hands down and he's not even thru with it yet 🤯get him on again when finishes it up
I can tell Blank is a very humble guy. I love his truck it's a beast. 💯
9 out of 10 drivers would pile this up in a 2 week period (if that long) if they tried to drive this truck like this. Kudos to this builder and driver. Great video as well.
I just started watching this channel a few days ago and I gotta say this is my favorite episode. They’re all good, but this just hits different.

Can’t believe he’s running like that on leaf springs. Dude knows his truck and can drive. I’d be scared stless.
Mr.Grey was also my auto mechanics teacher at Fremont high school. He’s also the reason I love old school cars and engines.
From 98 to the year 2,000.
Mr. Gray is my uncle ❤ 😊 he's so cool
That is a real hot rod. Not for the faint of heart. You have to be a real driver to tame that ride. You got to be a grown ass man to drive it.
This man is the real deal. This truck is incredible! Thanks guys.
Real deal is right
Fremont MR. GRAY THE LEGEND. HE CHANGE MANY LIVES. 🙏 CLASS OF 2000
I’m speechless and impressed with this car club and his knowledge and character what a fantastic individual
Best one yet. Please revisit this Man.
I love the fact that these guys use there toys and still use it for what it is intended for, the best of both worlds. Great choice.
Good to see people of color doing this! Gives me hopes to always pursue your hobby or dreams not matter what!!
Insane truck, definitely one of the best episodes. Insane truck, definitely one of the best episodes.
Beast of a truck! Great drop & edit, as usual. Everybody have a great weekend.
This is one of my favourite episodes.
Same for me! Blank is a legend
This guy is great. The way he's so chilled, he's a favourite guest. 🙂
Man this one bad truck show more this truck especially when he Tubbs it out finished with few other things,definitely one my favorite videos thanks
I’ve been watching this channel for a long time know and honestly this is one of the most genuine and special vids you guys have ever put out you can see the sheer friendship/happiness that’s real plus my man blank is a bad mother-trucker 1 in a million kinda guy 💙🇬🇧
Blank is a legend and about as cool as it gets! The whole HMC crew is an impressive bunch
Feel that bro. He definitely made the episode stand out from the rest. True triple O.G right there 💯👍🇬🇧🤜🤛💪😜
Blank is so smooth. And to scare Sean like he did, during that entire shoot, fun to watch 👀
To say this is one of my favorites is saying a lot with the cars and trucks on this channel. It's not just the truck it's the vibes you get from this guy, love it
I hear ya! Blank is such a cool guy and a badass driver
I love this, man!! This is the pinnacle of what the love of cars is about. It breaks through all barriers. What an awesome group of guys and their amazing rides. Much love!! God bless all y'all!!
If I was to build a truck. It would be that one. The reaction was classic. Brought tears in my eyes knowing that man can scare people with that thing.. those guys would be a lot of fun to hang out with. The auto knowledge that those guys have with their history of racing.. I would enjoy that.
A real man's truck with the manual. hell yeah.
Skid marks the whole way! The last pull had zero gap on the shift. Perfect driving!
This is exactly the kind of camaraderie I long for! A big group, all concerned about the same great things!
Blown away by the truck and the owner! Please bring us more content on this crew!

When it comes to "Looks" the tri -five Chevy's are kings. All American 1950's! love what has been done with the Chevy. Keep up the great work.
You mean no dome pressure. Got a lot of boost, probably 18 pound gate spring. Awesome truck❤
Yeah,I'm not buying the 1000 hp on all motor.....
I asked about this also..
He repeats "no boost", but the turbos are obviously on point in the game...?
This is probably the funnest episode that I have seen you air; these guys are awesome! Thank you.
Watching that thing layin stripes from the rear view mirror pov was AWSOME!!!!!
Right?!?! All 4 gears he hit laying stripes
An example of how WE, people can be when we share our interests and eliminate our prejudices . Hobbies like this are one way my old & new friends counteract negativity!😊 6:39
Dude has such a great personality, one badass '55 with a perfect stance. I'd have to call this truck Philo Beddoe...
When he said “We called it the Green Mile” I lost my drink I thought that was funny as hell and a great name.
I love old school dudes like this. Cool as a cucumber, foot to the floor banging gears!
i have been watching your channel for a long time, and you have had some fast cars and trucks but this truck... Man Brother has a bad ass real truck.. from the moment you 2 got in that truck every single time he got on it he left posi tracks all the way 1st 2nd 3rd you can see out the back window, when you camera crew films it.. that was hands down one of the nicest guys and bad bad bad Ass trucks you have ever shown.. props and the utmost RESPECT for the Gentleman that uses his truck for work and play. he was taught right that is a fact.. props to his Mom and Shop Teacher also for getting him right
I honestly don’t know what is cooler the truck with that sleeper boost set up or the owner himself… both are like the final boss to a car video game… don’t know what hit you until its too late and with a smile 😂

In addition at 18:00 i was waitin for the truck to leave nothin but flame tracks and go back in time! WOW is that puppy live!
This whole video was just a vibe had me feeling like a Sunday in LA with the guys
My favorite episode of the channel! I've watched this entire video about 6 times already, just great people and education all around! Thanks Sean/AutoTopia!!!!
Love that color, very understated but fits the truck so well. Cheers for another awesome video 🤙
Yo I love this man! Experience shows. There’s been nicer street trucks but never cooler trucks on this channel. This sumbitch is cool.
One of my favorite AutotopiaLA episodes for sure! Badass truck and hell of a great guy and club! Makes me wish I had my old 57 Chevy truck back I sold 25 years ago.
Thanks! Welcome
Very cool truck. A little optimistic on 1000hp at 8psi on a 5.3. You'd need around 650na to reach a 1000 flywheel hp with no efficiency loss. Probably closer to 18 psi for 1000 flywheel hp.
I know right and He's on pump gas LoL. He's probably about 500 to 600 max
Yea, and the whole "no boost" thing but he says it hits 8psi. Guy should just say it's on wastegate.
I had to rewind to make sure i heard him right when he said he' making 1000 hp NO BOOST. With stock heads, ring gap and a cam. Yeah alright.
This guy is an old hustler,he's not gonna say how much boost it's really making,or how much hp....
@@davidh6818 Now it makes sense. He's definitely running 8+ PSI
Dude this is sick. I love this. I have a garage here in utah and i love building drivers. I tell my customers i don't care how nice the work i did is. I did the work to be enjoyed man!
Man o man, I haven't sat down with some good ole boys and slapped some BONES down in years ! ! ! ! Killer truck and cooler folks. This is a good one Shawn . 😎🤙
Thank you! I love hanging out with this crew
this guy is an absolute champion... would be awesome to hang out with this guy and his friends.
This YT channel is bonkers ! Thanks for sharing all this amazing content with us guys. Car community is such a big family
Perfect build! Absolutely vulcanizes tires and can still haul a fridge home!
I understand what he's talking about. I'm the same when driving; cars talk to you. I believe it is a gift from God. You feel the physics of everything happening, in conjunction with an understanding of how everything works. I've scared many passengers while cool as a cucumber.
The worst is riding a motorcycle with lots of HP and mismatched suspension. It doesn't give you the proper feedback to ride it to the limits. And sometimes just the tires will be "dead" and not give any feedback.
You know you're a gearhead when you're a Ford guy, but LS Chevs still give you a stiffy!!
A+ vid !!
Every which way but loose…Clint Eastwood movie truck…. With a Modern twist..😎👍🏻💥
I’ve seen a lot of videos of vehicles but this by far my favorite one yet. Not only the truck but his infectious awesome personality makes it
Best interview and vehicle I've seen yet, simple setup(It has to go into boost a sometime, I don't know how you can get 1000 hp out of a 5.3 unless your in boost), I have a similar 6.0 setup coming on my 1972 chevelle which will kick in boost at 3500 rpm 56mm Borg Warner's.
Nice truck, dude seems to know what he's talking about but I'm calling bullshit. No sbe 5.3 making 1k hp on gate. He's a carb guy, don't know shit about efi. Maybe capable of 1k on a max effort tune, but that's a stretch. I want to see the dyno sheet. 😂😂
Im assuming when he kept saying "no boost" he meant that it gets only 1-3 PSI cause of how its set up. But yeah I dont see how else you get a 5.3 to 1000hp with zero boost.
Same question here
The driver, owner & operator of that heavy '55 Chevy be representing and is the true meaning of an O.G. Much respect.
Favorite video by far!!! Blank can really drive and your reactions were priceless 😂
I tell you this. Blank speaks truth to being one with the vehicle. Most people can't relate. He was cool and collected. Amazing truck. Amazing crew. Smile people. Life is too short. Be passionate about what you love.
