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.
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 🙌
I have a 81 long bed in my backyard. Had 305 with 450 K on it. Replaced it because the cam lobes went flat. Put a 355 4 bolt main in it with RV cam. Back in 04. It’s been sitting in my backyard since 07. Would love to see these guys get it running again. It also has the 89 suburban Chevy grill in it. It was my very first truck as a teenager.
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.
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❤
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...
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.
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.
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.
Terminator broccoli injection 😂 i have an 88 silverado ive replaced everything that has to do with tbi, fuel, and electrical even replaced the throttle body its self and now finally after almost 2 years of fighting it. It runs great
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.
@@michigandogman3060 I’ve owned owned 10 vehicles with TBI. None of them have backfired. Just ones owned by you. I bet you can’t describe how to set the timing on these correctly
This should've been a 7 part series with 1 hour long videos. Can't ever get enough of vgg
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.
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". 🤣
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
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.
@@Iamthathillbilly dereks got his own channel which is great, its vicegripgarage
It gets Discovery channeled
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
Dave is awesome. He even has a super fun sense of humor. Hope to see a lot more of him here.
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!
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??

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!

When Dave is part of any video, the video is going to be awesome.
Absolutely, its a crime they canceled Dirt Every Day
Thanks!
Always love it when Dave Chapelle is in the show. Man's an artist with power tools
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.
Nice to see the process. That thing is a jewel.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍❤❤
I need a 4hr episode on this build lol
Yeah it went from completely torn apart to completely finished instantly.
those TBI engines are awesome, i love mine
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...
😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘
Makes me smile when I see a new video posted.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍❤❤
Thanks MT for showing the victory lap.
😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜👍👍
They finally didn't suddenly cut off the Episode at a random second. Thank God.

Very amusing both so skilled
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!
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
Had two Astro vans with TBI in them. Never had an issue with neither one of them. 86 and 89 I do believe. Both 4.2.
It was great to watching you bring that old truck back online!
😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜
love videos with VGG and Dave...
we need to see more of this!
Do more together. You two are awesome
I have a question you made a distributor into a oil primer for getting into the cam shaft. The question is, what if you don't have that

Our chickens have to investigate everything! They like to help.
NICE. Perfect weather here, saw our MiLB team in a shutout earlier today with great friends and now VGG. Life is Good.
This thing is awesome, ive always wanted a 80s to 90s dually like that those are some sweet work trucks🤟
You guys are a great team, both know their jobs well😊
nice to see dave around

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.
Best build so FAR!
I love that truck! Looks amazing lowered
Awesome labor of love. Absolutely impressive.
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...
That was an outstanding outcome. Looks sweet!👍🏻🇬🇧You guys really put some work into that.
These two dudes together are awesome!! ....funny fellers :)
Ive always loved tbi, its like a carb but injected. Ive never had one issue with them.
Had a 89 4.2 Astro van with TBI never gave me a problem.
@Jason_556 ive owned like 10 of them and every single one always fired no matter what
Awesome engine rebuild an awesome rebuild and restoration on the old GMC truck keep new videos coming like the channel a lot 🤘
Very cool. Loving the Rat Rod build at the moment. Can hardly wait for the next video.
1 complaint--these videos need to be longer. Besides that, awesomeness 👍🏻
Yeah would have been good to see Dave do his work
We gotta work truck is puttin the feelin every time we get an old truck runnin into words..
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.
Exactly
I like throttle body, its great once you understand it, its simple and straight forward.
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.
Just saw this truck on VGG, love seeing its origins. Great seeing these two work together. 😊😊😊😊😊😊
Beautiful truck momma bought one brand new I was 11 in 87
good to see you working again...
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 ❤
I want to see Daves fab work. Where is that?
Beautiful old truck
Wow that truck is sweet. My god goid job. Your guys are so awesome. 💪💪💪💪
GM tbi is hands down the most reliable fuel delivery system ever created
A lot of people hate on the tbi yeah it’s pretty reliable in my opinion just there gutless

@@Impala-qp9cb yeah it just works can’t complain like you said want more use a carb

GMC looks so cool. Manly truck.

I'm in hog heaven all these videos coming out keep them coming
It’s an old video but I’ll watch it again
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
This show is awesome. I loved the episode when y’all came to Kansas!
Note to editor, show complete build next time.please
we all want to see daves work.
Awesome truck. I can take apart anything. Going back together is a different story
wow Nice work ! truck is looking great and towing a perdddy trailer .thanks for sharing ,hugs from MN
1966 cutlass... tell us about that. My favorite car in the world .
You guys are great to work with.
Great looking truck. Hopefully one day.
You make it look easy but that was a full frame off resto...and frame adjust...big work

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
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.
Man I want a dually like that🔥😍
What a team-up, nice!
How does a mouse get into the lifter valley? Maybe there was an opening on one of the valve covers? Can anyone explain.
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
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.
I thought Dave told jokes and lifted trucks haha awesome 👍
Does anyone know if this is the full episode? because I know the episodes on TV are 1 hour long
Have to pay for subscription to Motortrend or
HBO Max to watch full episodes
That's my dream truck looking good
This was such a cool build I wish we got to see it all though
You two get along so well. incredibly funny and talented
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
This better just be a preview/trailer 😁
