    Let’s start this off with my guess.
    12.80 on the Malibu’s first pass It’s just a SBE small block 350 with a tiny roller cam and a cave man fuel mixer. How fast can it be?

    • @onementality9781
      @onementality9781 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Should get down to 12.17 e/t solid if the shifter is right and the transmission or converter is all working right but 12.50's first hit

    • @mikerudolph9785
      @mikerudolph9785 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Bill at first, I held my breath when you guys pulled out it’s engine and all that. BUT the more I thought about it, as beautiful as that car is, it isn’t mine, and it isn’t a 1 of 100 collectors edition car, while you won’t find another one like that, it isn’t a 1 of 6 made kind of car. You guys didn’t ruin it, you made it fit your wants, you work for everything you have, and if you wanted to cut and crop that car apart, it isn’t anyones place but your own to question it, I’ve honestly liked what you done to that car for two reasons, one your proud of it, and two it MAKES YOU THE OWNER; smile when you see it. Keep it up brother. Love and well wishes from your friend in New York as always 🤙

    Sooo happy to see all your hard work finally paying off, so that you and miss Vickie can enjoy some things for yourselves. Getting YOUR vehicles sorted and projects in YOUR shop is great to see. All of us out here in YT land are grateful to see good people become successful and have a comfortable living after 25- plus years of scrimping and saving to raise two boys.
    Mad props to you two for raising two EXCEPTIONAL young men. We need more of you folks in our country right now.

I wish you and family the best

  • @troymyers5181

    I think 12.35 seconds with foot braking it off the line would be about right. I love the way that Malibu sounds- when you got on it in a previous video I was jealous. Keep up the good work Bill.

    • @hydroy1
      @hydroy1 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Not enough converter or rear gears for that, it's a full dress street car. 12.90sET. or higher. My 355 LT-1 with 390 rear gears & 4,500 rpm converter in my full dress 68 Camaro with 11 slicks went 13 flat at 102mph. You need 4.11s or 4.56 gears to get it into the mid 12s

    I'm gonna say that package is worth 13.40's, which is a pretty good start! I don't think that you're going to see 12's without chassis tuning, 11's with nitrous.

    • @docsmallblock6584
      @docsmallblock6584 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I agree, 13:40's- 13:60's, I say low 12's on a 150 shot, you really don't want to spray anymore than that on that set up, especially with no ring gap.

    Great episode! The truck is looking awesome! Look forward to seeing Miss Vicki driving it for the first time. Nothing wrong with the modification’s you made to the Malibu so you can really enjoy it. Especially since it’s at its permanent home. I like the sleeper look of it. Not sure how you feel about window tint but it would look awesome slightly tinted and it would help hide the “not so stock” shifter from outside. Y’all are doing a great job with the projects and the channel! Good luck this weekend and hope the Malibu meets and exceeds your expectations.

  • @allanlee5196
    @allanlee5196 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    First off, Ms Vicky's truck looks really good !! 2nd the Malibu is looking sweet setting on those rally wheels !! Now, I'm thinking it'll run around 13.15. Just a wild guess. It's been years since I've ran 1/4 mile race. Our local track here is an 1/8 mile. Whatever it runs have fun, enjoy yourself and please be safe.

  • @bigbruno84
    @bigbruno84 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I’m going to guess in between 12.80 and 12.90 on the initial passes before you get into tuning the Malibu, and before changing the shocks out too. After that, I definitely see it dropping down to lower. Depending on how that converter acts for you too, that may have an effect on it as well.

  • @jackzeilsdorff3164

    it needs a red stripe between the green and white top. 1/4"

    Figuring about 430 Flywheel horses out of your 355 with current combo ,3300 to 3400 weight, 28 inch tall slicks, stock chassis = about a best of 12.45 in the quarter for the first set of passes at the track.

    Hi Bill, first off I want to tell you how much I enjoy watching all of your shows , get a lot of helpful tips , i also talked to Terry last weekend at Jegs and told him how I really like how down to Earth all of you seemed , and I know all of you've worked hard for what you have, I wished everyone was like that and have the work ethic that all of you do ., I've got a project of my own going on a 73 SS Nova that I've owned for many years, when I first got the car my oldest daughter which is 39 now and will be 40 the end of October wasn't even a teenager yet when I first had it but there was a time when out of necessity I needed to sell it but fortunately the opportunity came up to buy it back summer before last, I don't put it first but it is very sentimental to me, I also am running a 355 small block very close to your engine combination , mine's running a tunnel ram with two 600 vacuum secondary Brawler carbs and I'm also running 3.73 Richmond gears with a posi unit but it's nothing close to what any of you have, hoping one day that I'd be able to talk to you guys a little bit , and as far as on the first pass for the Malibu I'm guessing 12.40 although I think once you have everything the way you want it I believe it'll be quicker than that, at that point I believe hi 11s or Low 12s , and by the way that C10 is really looking Great ! , all of you that have been working on it, and all of your hard work is really paying off !🙂👍 God Bless all of you

It has a 4" fender exit but thats just to make it cheaper. It does sneeze pretty hard when you let off it. But I think thats just a huge intake leak or something. Maybe brake booster blowing off.

    Great video, I love how serious your window guy looks.
    Go Kenny, Billys S-10 interior definitely has the Kenny Powers clean up look to it. Nice detail.
    Malibu should run 11.80s.
    C-10 is looking fantastic, Go Vicki!!!!!
    Take Care and God Bless

    12.80 sounds about right honestly, I had a very similar set up in an 86 s10 blazer, it ran between 12.7 and 13.

    I love that malibu! I have a 79 el camino and ran into the wheel and tire problem also. They make a frame notch kit but man you really have to brace the frame. I bet it will run a 13.18

    Great channel! Even better person. You and your family along with everyone you have in your circle are amazing. I'm 400cid and was hoping you would've dropped one in there. If i was closer to you i would've donated mine to see it on your channel(knowing it had a great home). I think if you baby it the 1st run will be 13.4s(if it makes a clean pass). If you really go for it 12.99(if its a clean pass). Either way i pray you have fun and all goes well. Continued success and blessings from Nj

    Paint those Chevrolet letters on the front matching the roof. Did this on a 59 truck and also painted the engine to match. Tied everything together.

    I think having the pinstriper paint the grille letter red to match the center caps and also the Chevy emblem in the steering wheel button would look good.

    My 1984 Monte Carlo SS with a 700r4 transmission and 4.10 gears ran 8.8 in the eighth mile with a Chevy 350 420 horsepower engine 8.0 in the eighth mile with the same setup and a stroker 383 460 horsepower engine and 7.5 in the eighth mile with a built LS 6.0 530 horsepower engine

    With that 3.06 first gear in the 700r4 and the 3:73 gear, foot braking, I’m guessing 12.50. Good luck!

    Building sleepers like the Malibu is so much fun! You really ain't hurting anybody's feelings dumping the stock V6 and slushbox trans. Cutting the wheel lips didn't really bother me, but I would have rolled them instead so as not to have that sharp edge. You might have to slow it down however if it goes 11.49 and needs a rollbar. That might be going too far for that nice of an original car.

    High 12's, low 13s, its a pretty mild combo with a 750 carb in a full weight G-body with stock running. I think that is a good starting point. Once you start playing with it the performance should take a jump. N2O will be yet another jump.

  • @garykboy4503
    @garykboy4503 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Malibu should run early 12s
    And also the C10 is coming out excellent 👍👍👍
