In this video, I introduce you to my daily driver, a 2001 Silverado RCSB powered by a cammed 5.3 and NV3500 manual transmission. We'll see how a set of 4:10's wakes it up, then see how long it takes to inevitably toss a rod through the block. LQ9 coming soon!

Love you all!
The ending got me smiling ear to ear. Tom needs more recognition he's better than alot of the car people on this platform
I was going to like this comment, but I noticed it's at 69 likes.. NiCe!.
The VCC ending? I’d love a collaboration.
Oh he's better than all of them. I'm constantly screaming woohoo as if I was a passenger in these videos.
Ive thought this since the first video I found
@@garrypennington9576VCC?
Tommy boy! Idk what you decided to change but I’m LOVING this new editing style. Quality is up, the short comedic cuts keep me giggling, and the skits are only getting better. Keep it up man, you’re killing it!
Agreed
Jesus loves you alot trust in His death 4 salvation and be saved from eternal hell
I feel like Texas Speed needs to sponsor this one!
Outro reminds me of that Honda dude from Texas
I drop everything to watch every new Tom Video, he's funny and entertaining and doesn't make me angry like that other guy who just destroys stuff for no reason
I can just imagine "sorry honey i can't go to your mothers funeral i have to watch the new toms refurb video"
I love watching the "other guy who just destroys stuff for no reason" he's number 1.
Can't we love both?
6.49 million
@@sykwookieeout of how many billion in the world??? Def be able to find 6.5m people that would think douchebag diesel is funny or entertaining....i mean....there's ALL kinds out there....NAZI's....Democrats....Socialists....one-armed blind guys...tons of others with low intellectual power to watch and enjoy those kinds of vids.👍
god bless tom's refurb
Here here
amen
gOBBLESS TOMSS REFAB AYMEN
AMEN
His rides need more help from god than him 🙏🏻
Ending with the VGG theme music was epic...
So was the blue shorty
Yeah i'll be dipped too, though i opened accidenly new tab for VGG
yes
i was looking for this comment
The big difference in Tom and “That Other Guy”, is that Tom knows his way around a toolbox. The other guy, not so much!
Exactly!!
Yea but can Tom operate every other piece of heavy machinery with the same touch that the other guy has? 🤔
Who’s the other guy 😂 am confused bec i feel like he don’t act like many other bigger TH-cams
@@brokeanbrokengarage8494 Whistlindiesel
@@MAGA_Randy_Marsh you might have a point, but most of us car guys can appreciate toms fab and mechanic skills, I feel like Tom is a true “hotrodder” builds shit and beats on shit!
Nah Tom has the perfect mix between genuine guy and destroy stuff. He's not whiskin diesel type being extravagant he's just down to earth blowin a motor like the rest of us but he rebuilds it himself. It's a beautiful process we can respec him for 100%
down bad for tom
I was going to eat a huge bowl of bran cereal and go jogging, but then I saw Tom posted a new video, so I dressed up as a cowboy and whacked it.
Tom should be flattered that you would rather "Whack it" to him rather than go jogging and crap your pants?
@@anybodyseenmyshoe1532Yeppers!
Genuinely jealous. I'm always looking for a manual Silverado with a V8 and I can never find one for sale.
you gotta get a nbs with 4.3 with the manual and motor swap it easiest way to do it.
Yeah real shit
i just sold mine for 6500 bucks haha 5.3 5 speed, guys already using it in takeovers here in Cali
Build it yourself man, you'll get better results
There goes Tom playin with his rear end again. Good to see you use ample lube. And don’t worry. It’s pretty common for your rod to blow after playing with your rear end.
Keep up the awesome content
Took me a ton of setups to realize on any used gearset to just leave the marking compound in your toolbox, you’ll wind up chasing your tail because they’re already worn in. Just measure backlash with the original carrier and then shim it so it’s back exactly where it was
Always love when Tom fills me up with his content ☺
Pause
@@Homelandersleftnut😂😂😂😂
Bro??
ill fill ur gramps
Found you 3 days ago, by now I have already watched your past 30 videos and I can t wait to see you post again. Also, I developed an addiction for Mustangs. You better start shipping to Romania too cuz I want that keychain. Love you Tom.
Came into the vid expecting utter chaos but left learning something new from this amazing man, great content can’t wait to see where you go.
You make the best content ever. Your sense of humor is just like mine and my friends and I love it. This is the only channel on TH-cam you can laugh ur ass of and learn. Currently hot rodding a s10. Gonna put a 5.3 running on e85 in her 😏
We lost the good old whistling diesel and we got an even better replacement, keep it up Tom this content is amazing
The ending was like a movie, they may not all end specifcially well but just leaves enough unasnwered to continue the story.
The vice grip garage ending theme had me rollin, hope he's alright with ya doing that lol
I get more excited when I see a Tom’s refurb notification than whistlin diesel these days. Peak automotive entertainment 😂
Every time I watch Tom's Refurb video my day is always better
Easily the best automotive channel. Every video is a banger man, keep it up!
I’m happy for this kid he’s hilarious and pretty smart
Tom is in purgatory repeating actions. Making things cool, breaking them, fixing, breaking again. Truly the modern day Sisyphus
Stuntman and Cameraman from the neutral drop would be proud of ur motor blow.
Best car content on YT. Editor/Cameraman needs some recognition for the amazing work behind the scenes.
I love your content man! Never fails to brighten my day up and make me laugh😂 keep up the awesome content brotha🤙😂
Tom is the mechanic/youtube Jim Carrey that we really needed😂❤
Tom your an animal dude!! If you start uploading more often you may take over TH-cam 😂
absolutely an underated channel love it man
Always a great day when tom uploads 🙌
You said it best thom
FR
I'm writing this as someone who is in absolute love with your content, i swear if you EVER stop uploading idk what i will do, you truly make me laugh harder than ANY one who i currently watch, god bless you and please stay safe
We love tomfoolery
Toms refurb is the most talented TH-camr I’ve seen in a while. What a time to be alive.
The scene right before the motor fully grenaded made me chuckle. Great stuff Tom's Refurb n team.
Tom genuinely out does evrey other car channel on TH-cam . Real shit man needs the love he deserves,also Tom you’re editing has been way getting better the quality of the videos > longer vids> typical crazy Tom shit , idk this video is rlly different all ur video hit and you’ve never made a bad video that I haven’t watched all the way three and laugh my ass off while learning and watching crazy shit ,but this video I can tell you put a damn good amount of effort into , keep up grinding and keep upgrading we love what u do Tom no one on TH-cam does anything even close to what u do
I hope I get the chance to meet this guy someday he’s cracks me the hell up he’s definitely how I am in a garage
Id love to meet him too!
You live in MD just gotta go to Cecil Cnty drag strip he's seems to be there all the time
That burnout gave me chills, cars/trucks are the best. AAANNNND now i want a nbs silverado.
Tom's rebirth is back!
Inspirational. I have a 4.3 single-cab short bed I'm looking to drop a 5.3/4L80 into, maybe cam it as well. Nothing as wild as this, but just to make it more fun for ice cream and burnouts.
I just finished that 4.3 to 5.3 swap on my single cab highly recomend it
Perfect opportunity for a bigger motor.
14:06 brings a tear to my eye
Love your channel keep up the good work
this is like 10x more entertaining than Roadkill back when it was roadkill.. and thats saying something
They always say the best way to get over one, is to get into another one...or something like that!
This channel is rarer than a shortbox silverado. Absolute gem 💎
0:36 i already broke the rules #nopants
If I lived where you live, I would be sitting on my porch smiling ear to ear listening to this for as long as it was echoing thru the hills.
so many more people would give him a chance and watch him if he grew up a bit kids got great content and is smart af just a bit too much
Tiiiiny bit more mechanical sympathy wouldnt go a miss either lol
I think it`s his crazy antics that draw people to his channel, you know what you are going to get when he posts a new video, usually mayhem and destruction, i love it!!@@Derpzila
i love how he makes rebuilding so easy, just time and practice! can’t wait to start doing shit like this!!
Bruv that VGG ending song had me dead. 😂
I enjoy having a cold snack or 12, while tuning into y’all’s channels. Love the vids my guy. Stay blessed and keep up the great work. 🫡
10:22 never pulled down my pants down so fast
Soon as you said "little chrome socket" while holding an impact, i started smiling. I love it hahaha.. I've split one in 20 years, was with a ratchet lmao. Im smart enough to get a real socket when it calls for it 😆🤘
Yo that was like the intro to a sequel. Sick movie series
The timing on the engine blow was spot on. I love it.
This was funny asf 😂had too replay and head u say that again 12:25 “she’s a little finicky somtimes she pops out ehh sometimes she’s stay in ehhhh it’s what it is “ 😂
Tom's refurb makes Mexico look amazing ❤🎉 Sì SÌ MORE
I love Sir Tomas Refurbington
Love the balance of comedy and doing things. I like the direction this channel is going. Keep up the good work!
I don't know if it was a clever play or not but at the end he mentions being compared to another car TH-camr (WD) then his outro music was the same intro that (VGG) uses lol. This channel has really grown on me keep it up Tom
“…you’re real tired and real dirty, and it’s 10:00 o’clock and you haven’t eaten dinner yet.”
You and I have similar style 😂
Edit: my comment also has the added function of taking you to a fine example of what true male friends are
Now this is why I watch TH-cam !! TOMS REFURB !! Love your content man !
Absolutely beautiful 😭😭 toms refurb on top(of me)
Best finish of any TH-cam video ever 😂 that rod flew our on key.
I have never, ever, seen a more satisfying engine blow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Naw I love the new video god damn 😂 you’ve never had a bad video but gaw damn video is 11/10 glad you’re giving us this 🙌and the good ole classic tom burnouts ✅
11:22 damm wasn’t the video I was expecting, but I hope everything gets resolved on your side & you get ur money back Rs. Stay bless kings, love from Toronto
Chef's kiss for that ending! Keep it up Tom
The 5.3 king 👑
new fav channel btw funniest car content on youtube mans too underrated
This guy is so good man,his content is always great to watch.
Man these videos are single handedly making me want to get another short bed Silverado, miss my 5 speed OBS stepside :/
idk why but it sounded good when that block blowed up .....and ur the best guy not the other guy.
alright get vice grips to come drop a classic motor in it for you, the dream burnout silverado build
Thank God a new video from Tomothans Refurbishment business! Also this video is oddly timed with me buying a cammed Silverado
Absolute top notch content creator never get tired of watching your videos
This has been the best ending to a video yet! My face still hurts from smiling so hard!!
Top quality content brother! Knowledgable and absolutely hilarious😂 Never disappointed, keep up the great work dude!
7:40 Might be my favorite 20 seconds of content ever
Those years Silverado’s are some of the best and cleanest looking trucks ever made. You should put a 454 in it, 4L80e and cut a hole in the hood.
7:28 i feel ya there bud 😂🤘🏻 i have replaced 3 in my 05 silverado went from 3.73 back to 4.10 then back to 3.73 and swapped a couple rear ends in my s10 too. also went from drum breaks to disc breaks on all of them which is just annoying but 🤷🏻♂️ all in a nights work
ps hoping to lq9 swap mine soon too 🤘🏻
Me and my short bed 5.3 Silverado will be on the down low for now on 💀
As someone who recently rebuilt a differential, I can confirm that this video is 100% accurate. Especially the shimming...
Love the videos, never get bored watching them, so much better than others
Tom’s the best automotive TH-camr period
This man’s channel is about to blow up
Bro, you are a f*ckin menace. I like it! 😎
I actually think your the most entertaining on TH-cam right now
That smile on your face when your buddies pull there butts out next time you should make them feel comfy and give them a go team
Best yt channel out there rn fr
Babe get it in here! New Toms Refurb just dropped!
i like how tom blurs the licsense plate while doing donuts like we didnt see it a few mins before
as you willed that 5.3 to death, I was absolutly dying.
That ending was no joke Rick just ranting to morty in the end of the show Just loosing it about the endless adventures and shit 😂
Ha! That was you behind me in my 55 on 273 on Wednesday in that blue truck!
Yessir, it sounded mean!
@@TOMSREFURB hey thanks fella!
