Thats what sucks about these shows and is why so many didn't want to see Derek do it. They take all the cool parts out to condense it down, because they want a complete build in each episode. I'll never sub to motor trend, there's way better stuff on youtube for free
@@larryhall6416 I’m talking about last September long before either the RR or VGG videos were on TH-cam. The truck was displayed and it was the first time hearing about it. He was there in the Delorean and it also wasn’t in a video that had been posted yet. Obviously he has a method to the madness of his upload schedule.
I had a 1991 Chevy C1500 short bed that I put 197,000 miles on it. It had that same TBI injection. I never had any issues with it at all. But I did put 5 water pumps in it, 3 sets tires, two brake jobs, an ignition module, and a set of intake manifold gaskets.
I dig Derek and pretty much everything about Vice Grip Garage, but his comment on GM TBI is completely unfounded. I've owned pretty much every GM fuel injection system, other than the original Rochester system on the C1/2 Corvettes and the most reliable of all time has always been TBI.
That's what gets me with VGG and this show - the man has some really odd (see: wrong) opinions about things. Throttle body injection is terrible and brake cleaner is the absolute worst thing for an engine because in the milliseconds before it's burned it'll somehow wash out the gallons of oil he apparently thinks are stored in the cylinders. Meanwhile, oil breaking down is a myth and as long as it's not straight water you don't really need to change it after 50 years - someone on a forum in 2004 said so. What really made me check out was watching him struggle for half an episode because he wouldn't let a Cadillac run for five minutes so the computer could learn. I mean, I don't build top fuel engines or anything, but I wouldn't let this guy work on my lawnmower. And MT trying to shoehorn him into other shows like they did with Magnante really feels like Roadworthy Rescues is not meeting their expectations.
The GM TBI is simple and reliable. Plenty of cars and trucks still using them everyday. The USPS is still delivering mail in LLV's for 38 years which is just a square S10 with a Iron Duke 4 cylinder with TBI.
When you want to fit this in 22mins, the % of time spent on power washing old engines is astounding. Who is editing this?? It really advanced the story and developed the vehicle as a character...
I actually really like the old GM TBI's. They're super simple and you can still get data loggers/telemetry gear for them and they run like a truly perfect carb would run, hot cold no matter.
they all think its junk, it so is not! in my 3 diff tbi trucks,all i ever needed to replace was 2 fuel pumps. thats it. theres a reason holly made them for jeeps 35 years ago
this is my favorite year model, i have a blue and white 87 fleetside short box but id love to have the dually and do exactly the same that was done to this truck 🙌
Why did you skip all the actual work dropping in the new engine, and dropping the suspension? Its like the second half of the episode was cut and you skipped 3 days of work and jumped to the end.
my dads company has always had chevy trucks. the oil pumps in the late 80's and 90's trucks usually gave out between 110 and 120,000 miles. I was driving one when the oil pump quit. A bottle of Lucas got me home with 5 lbs of oil pressure.
TBI works reliably on a reliably built engine. Exactly what it was designed to do. If I’m building a balls out motor it will be carb. If I’m building a daily driver make it a tbi.
Love the chickens, that was a nice touch.. it's a shame the mice ruined the 454.... The truck came out great!. I used to have a 84 Sierra and loved it❤
Good to see Dave again. I thought I saw some dirt there somewhere… Mice probably got in thru the hole in the valve cover where the oil filler cap was supoossed to be.
TBIs never dies. But the 1" of rubber hose from the fuel pump in the tank to the hard line bursts. Otherwise, they are simple, and not much to go wrong.
It’s cool to see Derek and Dave working together. They make a good team.
Ya they do. Pretty funny together
Dave has that sense of humor that I love!
these guys drive a truck with no oil pressure, now you can rebuild the engine
Dave Chappelle has really changed since I saw his last comedy show 😂
FYI Derek is the proper spelling brother.
Well I'll be dipped. A feller was just watching a guy talk about this truck. Nice
😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁✌✌
Exactly why they put this out lol. Capitalize on Derek's name, as usual
Same
@@krob5375 as a European, this is the only way for me to see these motor trend shows, so I'm not complaining
She turned out real nice too, fun seeing the origin story
Definitely need to see more of these two, not just the chickens, Derick and Dave!
I was thinking the same thing
Derek. Dave and Dulcich are my 3 favorites.
Keep the chicken as a regular.
Leave those chickens alone!
@@americasfavoritehoarder That little hen was pretty hot!!! I love red heads. LOL
Derik and Dave need their own show
are you serious? Derek has his own youtube channel.....
Isn't that exactly what this is?
@@SonnyGTA No, this is Derick show, and Dave helped him with this.
Drek doesn't have time for that stuff. He's on the special olympics doobie jiggy sparky whirlly team and that keeps him busy
"2 D's in a pod". 🤣
Dave is awesome. He even has a super fun sense of humor. Hope to see a lot more of him here.
Making this a 20 minute episode should be criminal.

It’s just not right!
Yeah, that’s the downside of network show constraints on MotorTrend. Too much time given to ads, too little on content.
@@Beandiptheredneck dereks got his own channel which is great, its vicegripgarage
It gets Discovery channeled
The 9-volt battery test on the injectors is genius.👍
lost art... today it's all $5000 scan tools!
I have old popular mechanic mags that have tools in them i have never seen before.
It is NOT ingenious, it is the standard way the EVERY mechanic uses to check out suspected bad injectors of this type!
So that's how that whole deal went - I love it! You two should be having a show together more often - you fellers are a natural together!
I would have loved to see some more of the installation of everything. Too much gold is hitting the editors floor!
suddenly the finished truck pulled out and I'm like WTF??? I had to go back to make sure I didn't miss something. Nope. I didn't, they did.
Ah the dually from the latest vgg! Finally the story
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😘😘😘😘😘😘
I saw it in person at LS Fest and was so confused. Where in the world did this come from??

@@jbernfield2612 That was certainly my experience as well.
Yea nothing wrong with the TBI. Super reliable.
@@jbernfield2612 yeah and he thinks Holley snipers are the best, they're trash and definitely worse than TBI

When Dave is part of any video, the video is going to be awesome.
Absolutely, its a crime they canceled Dirt Every Day
Thanks!
Nice to see the process. That thing is a jewel.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍❤❤
Always love it when Dave Chapelle is in the show. Man's an artist with power tools
I need a 4hr episode on this build lol
Yeah it went from completely torn apart to completely finished instantly.
Makes me smile when I see a new video posted.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍❤❤
We need more of this pickup on TH-cam Motortrend!
For sure
Another awesome episode.....these guys can take a boring re-build and make it worth watching...
😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘

They finally didn't suddenly cut off the Episode at a random second. Thank God.
Thanks MT for showing the victory lap.
😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜👍👍
You guys are so good together.
Very amusing both so skilled
Our chickens have to investigate everything! They like to help.
those TBI engines are awesome, i love mine
Miss watching dirt every day. Cool to see you guys working on stuff together.
Good thing they blurred that oil logo never would have guessed what it is!

love videos with VGG and Dave...
we need to see more of this!
Ive always loved tbi, its like a carb but injected. Ive never had one issue with them.
Derrick. TBI was in the S-10s too since 82. Reason why they sold so well. TBI is not garbage
they all think its junk, it so is not! in my 3 diff tbi trucks,all i ever needed to replace was 2 fuel pumps. thats it. theres a reason holly made them for jeeps 35 years ago
It was great to watching you bring that old truck back online!
😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜
NICE. Perfect weather here, saw our MiLB team in a shutout earlier today with great friends and now VGG. Life is Good.
this is my favorite year model, i have a blue and white 87 fleetside short box but id love to have the dually and do exactly the same that was done to this truck 🙌
That truck definitely had side post originally, my 83 did.
Yep. They started that bs in the seventies
@@hughjass1835 1970 to be exact all models.
You guys are a great team, both know their jobs well😊
1 complaint--these videos need to be longer. Besides that, awesomeness 👍🏻
Yeah would have been good to see Dave do his work
I love that truck! Looks amazing lowered
My 1993 C3500 gas that throttle body on a 5.7 and I've never had a problem with that either
And you won't. Don't know why he called it garbage.
Who doesn't love a nice square body slammed Dually that can still haul. Wish you would have shown the suspension work
I definately would'nt say slammed but it's lowered a bit.
GM tbi is hands down the most reliable fuel delivery system ever created
Just saw this truck on VGG, love seeing its origins. Great seeing these two work together. 😊😊😊😊😊😊
This thing is awesome, ive always wanted a 80s to 90s dually like that those are some sweet work trucks🤟
That was an outstanding outcome. Looks sweet!👍🏻🇬🇧You guys really put some work into that.
We gotta work truck is puttin the feelin every time we get an old truck runnin into words..
Do more together. You two are awesome
Awesome engine rebuild an awesome rebuild and restoration on the old GMC truck keep new videos coming like the channel a lot 🤘
Good to see you work on motor again very great job you two guys work great together
Note to editor, show complete build next time.please
we all want to see daves work.
Awesome labor of love. Absolutely impressive.
nice to see dave around
I'm in hog heaven all these videos coming out keep them coming
It’s an old video but I’ll watch it again
Beautiful truck momma bought one brand new I was 11 in 87
Why did you skip all the actual work dropping in the new engine, and dropping the suspension? Its like the second half of the episode was cut and you skipped 3 days of work and jumped to the end.
Because this is just a TH-cam page where they post teasers of the episodes they show in cable, Derrick explained that in his last video
@@hdo1994 how do I subscribe to the actual videos.. I looked on motortrends TH-cam I'm not seeing anything
There's something you don't see every day Chauncey. A chicken on a 454.
Glad to see that dirt everyday is still a show according to this episode being posted June 23rd 2024
Dave has his own channel these days. It's a good time

Very cool. Loving the Rat Rod build at the moment. Can hardly wait for the next video.
Best build so FAR!
These two dudes together are awesome!! ....funny fellers :)
I like throttle body, its great once you understand it, its simple and straight forward.
A lot of people hate on the tbi yeah it’s pretty reliable in my opinion just there gutless
TBI works reliably on a reliably built engine. Exactly what it was designed to do. If I’m building a balls out motor it will be carb. If I’m building a daily driver make it a tbi.
@@Impala-qp9cb yeah it just works can’t complain like you said want more use a carb
I like tbi it's way better than spider injectors
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
You are right, i'll take TBI over anything newer.
Tbi is easy to diagnose and honestly doesn't do to bad on gas my 93 Chevy 2500 2wd does decent
Love the chickens, that was a nice touch.. it's a shame the mice ruined the 454.... The truck came out great!. I used to have a 84 Sierra and loved it❤
Wow that truck is sweet. My god goid job. Your guys are so awesome. 💪💪💪💪
Glad to see the start of this build. You have it nice now. Spoiler alert look VGG up!!! Oh and the VGG dictionary is a great idea lol ❤
Love the older Chevy GMC trucks very cool work horses!!
wow Nice work ! truck is looking great and towing a perdddy trailer .thanks for sharing ,hugs from MN
I’m confused, if you’re rebuilding the small block, why not just rebuild the original big block?
Beautiful truck! I love it!
😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘
Such a cool truck. Love this build
Very cool thanks you two for your time 👍👍👍👍👍😊
Awesome truck. I can take apart anything. Going back together is a different story
Good to see Dave again. I thought I saw some dirt there somewhere…
Mice probably got in thru the hole in the valve cover where the oil filler cap was supoossed to be.
✌✌✌✌✌✌✌✌✌✌✌✌
good to see you working again...
Great looking truck. Hopefully one day.
Beautiful old truck
Another classic car save....That's fine👌😎
That's my dream truck looking good
This show is awesome. I loved the episode when y’all came to Kansas!
GOOD JOB!
What a team-up, nice!
You guys are great to work with.
So, let me see if a guy has it right, a "mouses" killed an "rat"....lol
I hate meeses to pieces!
A guy witness GREATNESS!!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Makes me miss my big block suburban
Now, that is a baddass tow-rig.
This was such a cool build I wish we got to see it all though
Man I want a dually like that🔥😍
Dave walking around with that ever present coffee mug like Julian of the Trailer Park Boys (except his wasn't coffee...lol)
finally yes!!! you too are my fave guys.
Came out awesome!
😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘
Thanks for making
TBI works great, just makes minimal power 😂 , better off road than a standard carb would do
I have a 1990 GMC SIERRA that has 260,000 miles on it and never had a problem with the TBI.
@@donaldstewart8342 yep I’ve got 3 all over 250k miles and they just keep going , sold my wife’s suburban with 330k still running
The Jeep crowd loved TBI
TBIs never dies. But the 1" of rubber hose from the fuel pump in the tank to the hard line bursts. Otherwise, they are simple, and not much to go wrong.
This is the best show if you want to be entertained. I laugh at the stuff these guys say. Just normal guys working on cars.
Oh nice, this was in last episode and now we get to see it getting done. Me, I'd like to have that BB to rebuild, send it my way.
Always wanted to make a big tire drag truck out of one of these!
I thought Dave told jokes and lifted trucks haha awesome 👍
Good to see Dave again, getting rid of dirt everyday was one of motor trends stupidest moves
