![Rough & Rowdy! This 800HP Big Block Manual Chevy C10 is a MONSTER! [4K]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/6-O-LkvHcsA/mqdefault.jpg)
Lets make America like the 70’s again 😎🇺🇸✌🏽
A beautiful Camaro. I can respect a guy whom has such love for his car to not abuse, or tear it up to show off the car's capabilities. He knows it's capabilities, and he's impressed each time he gets to drive the car.
Nothing not to like about Jeff’s blown big block Gen 2 Camaro. Love the throttle response. He really loves driving this car. Another high h.p. car with only lap belts🤷♂️
Add a shoulder strap and a bigger back tire and it’s just right
I would say he drives like a man that works for a living and knows what tires cost and has nothing to prove. Just enjoy it to the fullest. So glad to see that. Thank you for sharing
Yes he's a proper hot rodder knows what he has ,what it will do, but don't do it ,enjoy it, don't dog it
He drives like he knows he can't handle all that car. You can tell he doesn't know anything by how he's running such a small tire on a big hp car. That's just dangerous
@@delavarzarnegar8170 100% and the dude is scared of the car 😂
3/4 of the throttle? Why bother building it?
@@pareotrem because it’s his money and he has 67 other cars to play with everyone has a preference
@@kingofthanorth Still does not make sense. Same as you buy a big beer and only drink half of it.
I love all the cars you have on the channel even though there isn’t as many Mopar’s on here as I’d like I still love every single class a car there is because they have their own personality and they’re beautiful. Thank you again for your time.
Thanks. I’m always in search of cool Mopars to shoot but there’s just not as many as Ford and GM
Awesome knowing you can blister rear tires whenever you want but respect the power enough to know you don’t have to, you know what it’ll do, it’s not anybody else’s buisiness what it’ll do🤙🏼
People at our age appreciate this.
Nice to see a cool trad engine in a restomod instead of yet another generic LS.
Simply gorgeous Jeff, great story, it is a small world. 13 months? Wow. You worked ass off, beautiful sound, nice stance Best of luck 👍 to you brother. Thanks again Shawn for a great video as always TCB
He really moved quickly on it and such a cool story! Glad you like what we do here. I’m having a blast with it all!
Shawn.... Great content as always. I noticed the last couple of videos have been longer. Thank you for doing that. Love your channel and all the extended content!
Great vibe behind the build. Obviously a beautiful car.
I've said this before and I'll say it again. There's nothing like an old-school blower,it gets the blood going👍
respectfully, while it shouts "HP" better than a stroker setup...and the whine of air trapped between belt and gear plus the surge at idle is ear candy....it eats torque off the crank (since torque is spinning motion) and wears out its seals. there is something better than a blower, and it's a turbo. technically a "blower", except operated differently. I've had older setups that lacked "low end" like centrifugal blowers, but they can be set up for low RPM boost as well.
@@albertgaspar627 turbo don’t look as cool sticking out the hood as old school screw blower does ,if turbo’s really did make more power than screw blowers, I have zero doubt NHRA would’ve been using them long before now, since literally all of them still use blowers though I have to say blower is king of torque especially at 1/4 mile at a time🤙🏼
A giant cowl hood and a hole in the front grill is better than turbo or roots blowers. Louder, more whistle , torque and power than either roots or turbo on the street. All no prep racers and Radial Promods are using crank driven Prochargers. I'd have to say they are king if you want to modulate traction and have the same or more top end power as a screw on the street. Check out my Twin Procharged Camaro or Big Red (when its running the Procharger) for proof!
I don't usually like big rims on old cars but those fit great!
Absolutely...I'm more of a 67 or 69 style guy but....man this 71 is GORGEOUS
Awesome video from you guys!!!!! Definitely in my top 5 for sure.
Thanks. Killer ride
496 BUILD SPECS: Bore x stroke 4.310x4.250
I love 70-72 Firbirds and Camaro’s. Pontiac Formula 400 and the Z-28.
4:23 - Shawn, just FYI a 496 BBC is typically derived from a .060 over bored 454 with a 1/4” additional stroke (4.25). It was super common in racing before aftermarket tall deck blocks became prevalent.
It's the 383 build for a big block. I plan on building a 496 for my 2nd gen.
@@ChasingPerfection - Yep.
Chevy made tall deck blocks for the extra piston ring and back in the day when I worked on those they ran on propane.
Sounds Op..... Great job buddy 💯💯👍👍🤠🤠🇺🇸🇺🇸 awesome buddy 😎🤠🤠🇺🇸🇺🇸
Really nice 2nd gen Camaro, the grey suits that body and I love the blacked out tail light panel, reminds me of Grumpy's Toy. Great video.
Beautiful Camaro especially with that huge blower 👍🇲🇰
Can't believe how the car was re-united with the builder. What a small world... or is it the universe?
Hell yeah bro, this is a bad ass car. Love the look and simplicity. Not over the top, but not stock. I'm trying to get ideas for my Chevelle.
Shaffroff Racing sells a Brodix Low Rise intake that would have fit under the hood if its a short deck block which it probably started out as a 454.
love it!!
Deadass, nice build.
nice to see these big blower again! what a nice build! classic interior, right choice of paint color, not over the top huge modern wheels. love it!
Love it man awesome car. Keep up good work guys on the show I'm enjoying it
Dude, I truly love your videos! The way you cover the car, the respect you give to the owners, and of course the "Oh Shit" face! Love your content! I look forward to every one of them. Please keep up the great work! BTW This car is awesome! Glad I subscribed to your channel.
Thank you!! I still laugh at my “oh shit” face lol!!
@@AutotopiaLA the best one to date was that gray Monte Carlo???? With the adjustable power dial. Your face was PRICELESS DUDE!
Big Smokey burnouts are fun….until you get to buy new expensive tires every other week.
Truth!
It’s good to see a guy who drives it but also respects his car. Fantastic car all round.
That orange pinstripe on the gray paint looks very nice! Very cool Camaro.
I saw this car at Kooter’s Garage in Murrieta. That Brian does great work!
Car with that kind of hp needs proper seatbelts. Absolutely!
Agreed and a bigger tire out back imo
671 gmc blower is the best roots stile baby and the 177 single carb blower is good too.
Beautiful car! But it would breathe & run smoother with a x-pipe in the exhaust.
So bad ass.
Beautiful car,except I would have the same wheel set up,but wider in the back,not tubbed but wide,335/R+but other than that,excellent.
Definitely needs more meat out back but really cool Camaro
💥 Killer ride. There’s nothing cooler than a second gen Camaro. 7:38 I have 275 on the front and 315’s on the back of my 70 RS big block 468 and she roasts the hell out of them easily for the first 3 gears of my Tremec TKO 5 speed.
Those rims are interesting, they look similar to what people put on like Eleanor mustangs. They kinda work for me 👍
What a cool car dude; you'd think with the blower, every part of it would be 'over the top', but NOTHING is, it's all 'just enough!'
Really awesome video. Lol. Great build. Very tasteful car. Looks great.
He drives it like my Great Uncle drove his 429 T-Bird. smoke the Vettes off the line and to the speed limit lol Just the F with their heads. Can't go wrong with a 6-71 and the reason to add it!
This guy is pretty cool. Love the old school feel of the build. I had the same Sumitomo tires on my mustang. They weren’t so great.
Really cool guy and nice car with a great story
🔥🔥🔥
"How do you get 496ci?"
454 (4.25 x 4)
496 (4.31 x 4.25)
Bore a 454 block .060 over and add a 4.25 stroke crank and rods.
Thanks for the info. I figured it started with 454
Ordinarily I'm not a fan of blower motors, but something about that matte black blower is really winning me over such a badass ride!🎉
I like the look of blowers until you get inside the car…it really inhibits the view but really cool car
I love everything about this car. Except the blower. The car would be perfection without the big hole in the hood.
maybe chevy should make a modern version of the second gen.....i think it will be a hit
Wait a minute. You pay for a motor and they will not tell you barely anything about it ? Beautiful car - love the silver
I didn't get that either,that's a new one on me.
So much cooler without an Ls
Damn nice car
Don't know if I'm buying the "Took the 12 bolt out to put in a Chevelle" story,,
You could find GM 12 bolt rearends everywhere. you wouldn't remove it from a SS Camaro.
1971 Camaro SS 350ci cars came with a 10 bolt rearend. I have a REAL 1971 RS/SS (split bumper)
350ci 4 speed Camaro with a 10 bolt.
GM only made 200 RS/SS Camaros with a 396ci 4 speed,,, 1971 (full bumper) (like the one videoed) were 350ci SS Camaros.
CAMARO👍😁
Beast of a Camaro for sure
"What do you start with to get 496??..I have no clue"..Best answer ever!!..who cares just enjoy and drive the car!!! Who gives a F?..ENJOY
Exactly my gear head brother
Best color for any muscle car …..nice
If Im buying a built engine and damn well want to know what stuff is in it. "Top self" can mean something totally different to someone else. I want to know the rods, crank pistons, cam, heads valves springs, bore, stroke, compression everything.
FYI :
A "496" Stroker motor is a 454ci bored .060 with a 4.25 stroke and 6.385 connecting rods..
beautiful car, I'm not sure if he said but the exhaust pipe looks small like their 2.5 dia. But if it works it works.
He didn’t say the size but I’d guess the same. Nice car
Still no good belts....I know looks, but I want to be around to enjoy my rides. I like the look of a nice seat with harnesses.
Same for me but otherwise great car, cool guy and awesome story!
Wow..great ride.. 4 spd though..i guess that helps keep performance in check pushing the clutch in every few seconds?
🤔🤔🤔I DIDN'T SEE ANY SEAT BELTS 🤕 SAFETY FIRST 💯🙏👍, BEAUTIFUL BUILD
It had lap belts only and you probably know how I feel about that
That home garage tho!?
Not bad eh?
That tko 600 5 speed is only rated at 600 foot pounds, he said it was 815 whp. That's transmission is gonna blow up soon guy you should've went to the t56 super magnum that's ratted for 800+ hp and gotten the second overdrive, and you probably are gonna need to go down on compression with a shallower piston because that head gasket can only take so much pressure before it will blow with a fucked up combo like that. Other than that it's a great car.
We need it more acceleration and burnout in this one you can’t tell 😂
Haha!! NO complaints about the seat belts?
Sweet Ride Bro..to find a car that far away means you really Love It!!..Real Car Guy!!
I wish I had enough money to buy a blower for the looks of it. Pretty cool car. I'm not a huge fan of the second generation camaros, but the paint job and blower help the lack of looks.
You get a 496 from a bored and stroked 454. That is my dream engine lol. I have a 454 bored to a 461.
Beautiful car!!
That was what I was guessing but didn’t know for sure
Love the video’s Shawn. Not a big fan of the music drowning out the sound of the engine. Keep up the good work.
Should’ve dropped the clutch in 2nd at 5500 then immediately speed shift into 3rd and seen how long it’d lay stripes.
To get a 496 you start with a 454 and get a stroker crank for it.
Thats a awesome car 👍🏽👍🏽🙂 but in our country you can't have a blower that high out of the bonnet or blocking your vew, you can get lower blowers now or you can modify things to make it sit lower 🙂👍🏽 but I love the way he drives it , I'm the same now I like just cruising, hopefully I can build another cruise car soon? May be next year?
I’m the same way now…little tire spin for some fun but nothing that could get away from me
Man i LOVE this channel…. Wild 71 💪🏻
Bought, not built. He'd be more at home in a pair of new balance and a c5.
Nice car, love the color scheme but I would have stayed in the Outer Banks.
A 496 cid Rat engine typically is a 454 block matched to a 4.25 inch stroke crank. Ironic that Chevy would create its 8100 litre engine that way with heads that are closer to an LS than any head made for the 454 block, when they had a 502 cid crate engine (with a Ram Jet EFI option) with a bigger bore sitting around. Perhaps the engineers worried the bigger bore offered more opportunity for detonation in towing situations?
Gorgeous car. Only thing I would change would be the rear tires. Weak burnout, sorry! Great review.
Lol! It was a weak burnout!!
That’s definitely a daily driver. Cool 2nd gen F-body. Drive it till the wheels fall off.
Proper build - It just says "Live a little!" doesn't it! Top to bottom meant to have fun!
I love seeing such amazing cars coming out of my Native San Diego county. Makes me proud to know such great work is being done in my backyard 👍🏾
I'd love to see a only blower (871?) 6.0 LS car gasping for air in the channel. :)
Gorgeaus kind of street machine!
For sure!
My dream car shawn! I always look forward to your videos.❤❤ love it!
Nice!!!!! 👍👍
The problem with the car culture is that when a shop has done bad work. They keep the shop name silent
I just think he didn’t want to give them any credit
beautiful car so glad he didn't make it a fake split bumper this car is beautiful
17:24 statement. Haha, i disagree. If you have a car like that, or any car really, you know your car after a week or two of driving. What a BEAUTIFUL car, just wish he would have put it to the nuts
Dude has a sweet garage, looks like he has a lift and a double high garage to allow for the lift. Looks like he has a Chevelle in there too. Temecula is still being built in some areas as you can see from the construction of new homes in the background.
This was at our friend Ken’s house. The Nova you see in the garage is Ken’s and is also on our channel
Is this the dude he wrecked with in a different car?
this guy respect his build love second gen camaros
He certainly does respect the power
Your face Shawn is priceless to watch. Great vid. Stay Gold!
Matthew 25: 1-13
Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom.
2 And five of them were wise, and five were foolish.
3 They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them:
4 But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.
5 While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept.
6 And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him.
7 Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps.
8 And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out.
9 But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves.
10 And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut.
11 Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us.
12 But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not.
13 Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh.
Those poor tires never stood a chance lol.
Nope
That belt when he opens the hood. You just know that sounds like the best sound out of a any engine ever.
A man that works for the living not living to work could only dream of calling said classic Camero. Especially considering what a MAN has to deal with to have a job that pays what that MAN deserves to earn. Due to the damn thieves stealing to make sure that working MAN does or doesn't have a nice car. One question if a person of said kind of mentality come to my house and mess with my Mero. Rock salt or metal? Neither need to have a warning first do they?
That’s it. I’ve seen perfection
I think EVERYONE luvs a blown Camero.
I think EVERYONE loves to blown…you know what i mean?😂
Christmas came early , thanks Santa Claus , love 2 see Happyness & Joyfulness in the same place at the same time !! Enjoy 💯✌️👍
I just watched a video about a Japanese guy who builds American muscle cars with Japanese style. Pretty awesome. They love our cars and culture. Just so crazy that we have all these cars here in America and we don't even appreciate it.
I'm just a random guy on the internet, car looks great but those exhaust bends 😕some sand filling or something would have gone a long ways to keep those mandrel bends much cleaner and less choked off
