That's no ugly truck to me! She's gorgeous! I initially didn't really like that body style but it's grown on me and now I love it! Enjoy the channel! Keep it up!
Glad you got it and I am glad you got the truck done. I'm glad you found your dream job and now your own business. I am going to say good job on the subscribed people who are watching and I am glad that I was in the first bunch. You are going to make it just like I will someday get to work for a gentleman such as yourself. I'm going to be 52 on the 14th and I am again happy to see you are enjoying the dream of the show to your business and channel. God bless and enjoy, as I said not work if you enjoy doing the things you love. Great evening and upcoming Thursday to you LT.
I have been watching you since your debut on Power Nation love your work and knowledgeability on automotive stuff. Cant wait to see you at 1million subs. keep up the good work
"WITH GREAT POWER COMES GREAT RESPONSIBILITY"! You could have turned up the boost and and pushed it to it's limit but I'm glad to see that you are responsible and can drive it without trying to blow it up out of the gates like others do. Congrats on the SUBSCRIBERS!!
thank you! and you are right about that, the temptation is there, but also present is the understanding of how much work and expense it will take to build it if it does blow
LT, I humbly thank you for walking us through this whole journey. From your introduction of Ugly Truck to us, to your cross country move, to your ear to ear smile of pride and excitement behind the wheel of this beast! I, as well as many of your other followers, I'm sure, really enjoy watching your videos and anxiously await for what ever you bring to us next. I wish nothing but success for you and your family and can't wait to see this ol, albeit no-longer-tired girl's official first dyno numbers. See you in your next video, brother!
As I said before I actually like this better than your show. Very inspiring. I'm actually getting ready to turbo my 07 ScSb Silverado myself this spring I have basically all my components except my fuel pump reg because like you I'm worried when I drop the 450 in the tank the stock reg won't hold it. I've also been learning how to use my HP tuners. Just to get familiar with it all before I really got to make the big changes. I am planning on keeping my Maf though since my goal is only about 500 it's my daily so don't need it too crazy. Congrats on 30k and I look forward to your future content
L.T. I know that feeling of all the hours and then the final payoff. Glad you remembered to latch the hood and torque the lugnuts. I’m the type that would’ve forgot the basics
Nice project, owning a 1998 crew cab dually with the 454 this gives me inspiration and you take the guess work out of my project. Keep up the good work!
Stoked for ya brother! You are a better man than me, I would have had to see just how far that stock fuel pump would make it. Congrats on the goal and the #UGLYTRUCK.
LT you are the man! I’m a long time fan and have been watching you on truck tech for a few years so when I saw your personal TH-cam channel pop up in my YT feed I said YES I will definitely see what he is up to. I am pumped that you moved to UT. I live on the other side of the lake from you. Utah is a great place to be and the auto performance scene is pretty great here. It was better when we still had Rocky Mountain Raceway but we still have Utah Motorsports Campus and hopefully they put a drag strip out there. Welcome to UT County man! Hope to see you out cruising sometime!
Hell yeah LT! I'm so glad you finally got a chance to get on that skinny pedal. 30k is a big achievement, I'll bet u hit 100k real soon. Love your videos, keep up the good work.
LT, I enjoy content of you channel, you go over basics and journeyman level fab and bumper to bumper with great skill. I’m looking at making an AWD street strip truck.
Just an FYI LT, I've got an 01 x cab with turbo (T4 S475) forged 5.7L (boarded 5.3) on stock return style fuel lines, rails and reg with nothing more then the a Racetronix "hotwire kit", Walbro 525 pump and Holley Hydromate pickup and I've dynoed right at 800whp on my Dynojet dyno and run the track times to back it up. This truck has been running this power as a dd for about 12 years, lol. (KB Racing Turbo Systems)
Tuning is a new thing to me. As it's said in passing on multiple videos, but this is the first time it was explained to me. Doesn't seem too difficult with some good research and capabilities. Glad you included it #UglyTruck
It’s interesting to see the love these engines are getting, they never got the love they deserved and to mention the cylinder heads on this motor are different than your usual big block
Way to be big guy, I was super pumped for this video. You are far more productive than me with truck projects but our reaction to the first pull is the same lol, keep it up!
Did you consider putting the Wally in a surge tank and use the stock in-tank pump as a lift pump? That way, you could use a fuel pump controller referenced to the manifold pressure to run the Wally. Of course, you don't exactly have a surplus of room under that hood.
@@LawrenceTolman Either way, a controller would help keep the 450 from running at full song (sucking current, heating the fuel, and over running the fuel system) and might not be a huge pain to integrate with the new harness. I wonder how much power the stock fuel line will support?
Congrats on 30K! Y'all are kinda like a kid on Christmas Eve. LOL! That l'il giggle when the rear tires broke loose. LT, I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say, "Y'all should open an account with the local tire shop. After the new fuel pump and fine tuning are finished I have a feeling y'all are gonna NEED it!" Giddy up.
Take a look into Racerender if you haven't already. Makes a nice way to share what's happening with the gauge overlay. Excellent project, I'm sub'd for dyno results.
I just got back from Hurricane for the Winter 4x4 Jamboree. Your truck is gonna be awesome for those 80mph speed limits out there. I can't wait to move there👍
This is real content not that bs youtubers , this is the kinda stuff I like and cant wait to sit down and see it lol..keep up the good work n videos man!
LT, I have a video suggestion, an explanation of what the wideband is, how it works, when do you need to use one. I eat sleep and breathe automotive anything, but I am clueless about the wideband O2 stuff, how and why you need one etc. If it’s not video worthy for the channel, maybe add it in during a tune portion.
Who else instantly smiled along with LT when he "rolled in" to a little bit of boost and lit the tires up? I know it made me giggle!
i laugh every time I watch it, and im up to about 40 times now
Absolutely....ive had a couple of trucks that were completely modified from stock & the instant gratification of power just can't be beat😎🤜🤛😎
@@LawrenceTolman Thats one way of getting additional views! haha
Dyno session coming soon? I'd love to see the n/a to boosted comparison.
Super awesome job! And, not only was it built in a garage, but street tuning it too! Great video for us regular people!!!
thats the way its done!
Nice to see your excitement about spinning the tires is genuine.Nothing fake here.
Glad to be one of those thirty thousand subscribers!!
That's no ugly truck to me! She's gorgeous! I initially didn't really like that body style but it's grown on me and now I love it! Enjoy the channel! Keep it up!
Congrats on 30K!!!! Glad to be a part of this great community!!! Awesome build as well!!!! Sounds wicked cool!!!!
Keep up the good work. Right now i am working on an 85 square body but you make me really miss my old 1999 gmc with this build.
The joy on your face after you burn the tires for the first time is priceless. Well done.
That definitely put a smile on my face when you lit up the tires. I’m glad to be part of the 30,000 subscribers.
Glad you got it and I am glad you got the truck done. I'm glad you found your dream job and now your own business.

Never thought I’d be so excited to see someone else get their project done! Sounds awesome and looks like it’s going to be a ton of fun!
I have been watching you since your debut on Power Nation love your work and knowledgeability on automotive stuff. Cant wait to see you at 1million subs. keep up the good work
thanks a bunch! It would be so awesome to get there
Great job LT! My 40 year mechanic soul is proud of ya!!
"WITH GREAT POWER COMES GREAT RESPONSIBILITY"! You could have turned up the boost and and pushed it to it's limit but I'm glad to see that you are responsible and can drive it without trying to blow it up out of the gates like others do. Congrats on the SUBSCRIBERS!!

Truck is looking good. Glad to see I'm not the only one that throws wiring scrap bits on the floor while working.
thats the only place to put em
Congrats on your 30K. Very well deserved
That beast is a torque monster. It spins those tires like they aren’t even there. Sounds great 👍
4:30 gears on 30"tires so much torque to the tires
Gen VII BBC,

That's awesome! I couldn't help but get giddy along with you when the tires broke loose under boost. Great job!
Binged the entire Ugly Truck series last night, love all of it!!! Great job!!

Love the 8.1! After seeing so many throw it away, it's nice to see it on a path to redemption. Congratulations on meeting your goal!
Thanks so much!
I loved watching the straight laced technician face disappear with boost
Awesome to see it in action. Your reaction was fun.
So cool to see all your hard work paying off
Nice project, owning a 1998 crew cab dually with the 454 this gives me inspiration and you take the guess work out of my project. Keep up the good work!
thanks!
great to see the ugly truck finally moving after all the hard work the smile on your face says it all
keep up the good work..........loving it !!!!
thanks! It was so exciting to finally drive it under boost
Stoked for ya brother! You are a better man than me, I would have had to see just how far that stock fuel pump would make it. Congrats on the goal and the #UGLYTRUCK.
I have followed this build from the start and have loved it! Congratulations on it! Great job!
Awesome! Thank you!

Great content, LT. Ugly truck is a dream build! I can't wait to see it make a pass.

Very cool !!!! 1st time 8.1 owner here. 2001 chevy suburban.....love your channel !
Haha the post tire fry excitement was awesome dude!!! So rad!
I'm a simple man, all it takes is a little boost and wheel spin and I'm set.
Thank you! One, fantastic build. Two, That is the clearest explanation I've heard about ECU tuning ever. Subscribed.
Yeah buddy! Fellow Utah County guy here!
Nice work man!!! You will hit 100k subscribers soon!!
Happy to be a subscriber. Really been enjoying the content.
LT, I enjoy content of you channel, you go over basics and journeyman level fab and bumper to bumper with great skill. I’m looking at making an AWD street strip truck.

Definitely one of my favorite builds. Always look forward to updates.
Love the video LT. I so want that truck!!! Very impressive tech. Your happiness is contagious!
Sounds sooo good!
Congratulations !
Keep up the great work !

I happy to see this truck progressing !
I cannot wait this thing is gonna be a beast!!!!
Let's get this fella to a million subs he diserve it he wants to help us and exspaline the terms to us rock on bro
thanks!
Way to be big guy, I was super pumped for this video. You are far more productive than me with truck projects but our reaction to the first pull is the same lol, keep it up!
I appreciate that! Its so exciting to see all the hard work pay off into a project that runs and drives
Thank you for let us enjoy your great job
Love the build and just subscribed can't wait to see what comes next
Great video brother! Glad it's coming together!
Awesome info, would love to learn the programming side of things WAY more!!!
Congrats, LT. The truck really sounds bad ass!
I was excited as you when it went into boost buddy! So happy for you! Keep up the good work!
Did you consider putting the Wally in a surge tank and use the stock in-tank pump as a lift pump? That way, you could use a fuel pump controller referenced to the manifold pressure to run the Wally. Of course, you don't exactly have a surplus of room under that hood.
i had considered it (At least in passing) but I think and hope the simplest thing will be just sticking the walbro in the tank
@@LawrenceTolman Either way, a controller would help keep the 450 from running at full song (sucking current, heating the fuel, and over running the fuel system) and might not be a huge pain to integrate with the new harness. I wonder how much power the stock fuel line will support?
It's putting out some good torque and sounds nice and effortless.
you thinking of opening up a PO box? a little fanmail segment would be neat
Congrats on 30K! Y'all are kinda like a kid on Christmas Eve. LOL! That l'il giggle when the rear tires broke loose.
LT, I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say, "Y'all should open an account with the local tire shop. After the new fuel pump and fine tuning are finished I have a feeling y'all are gonna NEED it!"
Giddy up.
I was smiling along with you LT!
congrats on 30k and heres to 100k keep up the great work love the channel!
Been a great series glad you’re having such a good success
Looks sweet and sounds great
Great video! Can't wait to see it out on the road!
Nice!! That smile at the beginning was priceless!!
Great job man!! Best channel on TH-cam!!
Ohhh she sounds sooo good!!
You did a great job putting this truck together LT keep up the hard work
Take a look into Racerender if you haven't already. Makes a nice way to share what's happening with the gauge overlay. Excellent project, I'm sub'd for dyno results.
Congrats on passing 30,000! Next is 50,000 then 100,000, great content! If you ever have time check out little moab in utah, a rock crawling place
Happy for you! You looked like a kid at Christmas.
all those long hours of work was worth it in that moment
Good job LT! Enjoy the content. Was a fan when you were on T tech. Keep it up! Oh, and congrats on 30k subs!
thanks for watching and subscribing!
Great Job LT!!!
Congrats, cant wait to see the updated dyno numbers
You and me both!
I just got back from Hurricane for the Winter 4x4 Jamboree. Your truck is gonna be awesome for those 80mph speed limits out there. I can't wait to move there👍
Can't wait!
This is real content not that bs youtubers , this is the kinda stuff I like and cant wait to sit down and see it lol..keep up the good work n videos man!
I genuinely appreciate that!
I cant wait for the converter to come it is going to make it so much faster
I feel your excitement. Gets me so excited to turbo my truck
LT, I have a video suggestion, an explanation of what the wideband is, how it works, when do you need to use one.

Congratulations.
I enjoyed watching the build vids. The grin during the burnout in 2nd gear priceless LT. 👍👏😁
thanks! that was legitimately the first good pull I did, and i just couldn't contain myself
awesome build! your reaction on that 2nd pull was priceless
I am doing the same tuning as we speak. I love having my maf, ltft and stft and closed loop disabled.
it actually runs very smoothly considering thats all disabled
Hell yeah! That’s sweet!
Thanks for sharing some of your tuning knowledge.
Congrats on 30k
Congrats on the 30K, keep growing!
Thanks! Will do!
This is me watching this video 😁, can’t wait for next one.
We gonna get an all wheel drive next?
