Today we start the 2010 Camaro with Turbo Vortec 4200 power for the first time! Sign up for the Atlas Nationals here: msreg.com/atlasnationals Go check out the Buck Does It TH-cam Channel: / @buckdoesit
It's crazy how much more visually appealling that engine looks with custom intake and the alternator down out of the way. The engine bay looks way better thatn factory, nice work!
This build is awesome. These days, most builds are variants of the same stuff we’ve already seen. This is refreshing, new, and exciting. Great work! Keep at it!
Calvin with all you guys got going on with this theft etc it is remarkable what you were able to do. Best of luck with everything. Hope your Dyno session works out well
Can you please do an episode on the Atlas Nationals for us?! I'm really wanting to see some of the four and five-cylinder Atlas builds, Aunt. There doesn't seem to be anything here on TH-cam!
"Golf Course" round of applause for your Dad, you and all the other excellent people behind the scenes making it all come together and happen. Best of luck. 😊👍
The best things that come from such a project are the parts to make better, more efficient builds, and eventually making them available to the public. Slightly surprised you decided to stick to Holley after all the trouble you've mentioned to make everything work, including the twin standalone solution to get around system restrictions. But I'm also curious about the bypass w/ the second ECU, never saw something like that before.
This Camaro is just beautiful! You have done a amazing job with it, as well as the parts you have developed! Your helping a lot of people share in your passion!
Calvin, it’s very unusual to have the belt tensioner at the highest tension location in the belt routing. All of the power for your accessories is actually going to loosen the belt tension as load increases.
I love the alternator bracket, but I wonder if you're going to have issues with the serp belt being thrown off due to the tensioner being on the wrong side of the belt path.
Grateful for sharing both of you and your father’s wizardry!!👏 🤯 Excited to see what comes of the Camaro dyno session and the future of the Northstar as well. Breathing new life into these as you both have developed and are sharing such specialized knowledge around the Atlas. Also looking forward to seeing what comes of similarities between the Northstar platform and it’s future in your hands as well. As you both are doing outstandingly well with your time, development & re-engineering on the 4200 engine. Thank you for the enjoyable content and all the inspiration!! Best wishes to you all!!!
Good job with trigger setup. Its important to get a lot of resolution on the trigger system. The older 2jz stuff only has a 12 tooth crank but upgrading to a 36-2 is easy and helps a lot. I'm working on a Barra setup right now, hopefully my startup goes as easy as yours lol
@michaelhughes7513 There obviously are better ECU's on the market that can manage all that is needed. Calvin mentioned one brand in this video. Think his main reason to even bother with Holley is it appeals more to users in USA.
@@thatdudeinorange5269 @michaelhughes7513; Calvin explained in some detail in previous posted videos the issue with the Holley ECU-ECM design issues which are not compatible with the Vortec VVT. There are simple solutions with a different ECU-ECM which some of us have posted multiple times to Calvin but he and his father presumably refuse to either investigate, switch, and use other ECU-ECM which are actually superior to Holley as Fuel Tech [All series from FT-450, -550, -600, -700 are fully compatible, usable with all engine platforms with VVT] All The Best.
Man i clicked so dang fast. I think my finger has whiplash 😅 ... i have soooo much hope and expectatins for this as i would love to see another inline 6 doing damage besides just hearing either 2jz or rb26 .. not to say they are not insaine badazz engines , just i would love to see this 4.2l inline 6 get nasty and more support, cuz just imagine what this would be capable of with the same backing as the 2jz or rb line .... 🏎💯🔥💪🏽🤘🏽✌🏾 #BuiltNotBought... peace and love all keep it rad stay safe and build on... l8z all and keep having fun brotha.. ps im still prey that one day something will atleast pop up on your studa ... much love n respect yal .. ✌🏾
Arctic should be sponsoring this 2010 Camaro and take it to SEMA!! I think it’s the Camaro of the year. It might not be done but when it is it will be a car to follow. I love it Calvin and hope you love it too!!
I love the info already about the firewall ! Just saddens me at the sametime bc this just a glimpse into what you & ur family did to the lark over the years. Awesome to see this.
The 08 and later crankshaft weaker than earlier because why, just mass support? Very Cool stuff, I pray you get your other car, truck and trailer back. This car sounds and looks great, fantastic job team!
th-cam.com/video/HPeyW3ZqW1A/w-d-xo.htmlsi=Eb0dsy3aMrX1z3A5. Cranks start at 10:50. Later cranks have less counterweights , makes more harmonics above about 7000 rpm
Toot your own horn... You and your dad have really smacked this one! So good to see your dad out and about helping and celebrating the solid first start! Take your time going forward, this one looks like a long-term keeper for sure!!
WOW just WOW, I'm not a big fan of the Camaro body style but your project, the sum of the Parts, is extraordinary.....Like the Atlas 6 install alot. This car will break records!
You guys did great overall The only things I’d be conserved about long term on the crank sensor if you use a supercharger or make a lot of hp the crank can flex to the point you lose crank signal. I don’t see it being an issue now but I don’t know how strung these cranks are.
I just finally got my 2jzgte running and yard driving in my 67 scout rhd I’m concerned about controlling the stupid auto trans hoping it will workout but kicking myself for doing a650e instead of a manual trans
Dang it. I grew up around the Dayton area. The year I decided to move, you're coming to town! My luck sucks. Best I've ever ran at Kil-Kare was 10.12 @149...first and last time I've dragged. It was a two-wheel Tuesday around 2006.
Need hiding air tags on all , kill switches , and a tracking system .... I cant talk as all i have is kill switches , but I have 3 diff ones 😅 , someday I forget and cant start ot lmao ... but I deff think atleast some hidden air tags or the equivalent with kill switched would be the been kneez.. but I'm sure he had already done all this now
Just gotta say this man this is beautiful a masterpiece in my honest opinion this is an inspiration I plan on following in y’all’s footsteps like there ain’t nothing that describes how stoked I am for this project awesome stuff man
Been a real nail biter waiting for this vid, awesome work!! Looking forward to updates and races. I'm relatively new to engines, discovered how awesome 6's are for balance and wanted to learn more, how i found your channel. Big fan of your work!

I am so not a GM guy but your builds are so different that they are impossible not to like. I hope this car is a great success for you.
Unique / obscure and that why I ❤️ this channel!
@@GMCJay_lly Exactly.
It's crazy how much more visually appealling that engine looks with custom intake and the alternator down out of the way. The engine bay looks way better thatn factory, nice work!
Looks right at home!!??
I love how you are producing great solutions to issues making these swaps easier for people like me
You’re welcome! It was a pleasure working with you guys; you’re a great team! Awesome first start for sure!
Thanks again! Hope to see you again soon
This build is awesome. These days, most builds are variants of the same stuff we’ve already seen. This is refreshing, new, and exciting. Great work! Keep at it!
that timing kit and the intake is the 2 things that's really going to pump up the marketability of the 4200 as a swap option. nice work Cal!
I really like seeing your mom and pops show up in your videos. Really is a family supporting one another.
Calvin with all you guys got going on with this theft etc it is remarkable what you were able to do. Best of luck with everything. Hope your Dyno session works out well
Thanks! It did work out well. Actually already had it.
@@Calvin-Nelsono man .. can't weight to see the results bro
Any hint on some numbers? Did it break a 1000?
Can you please do an episode on the Atlas Nationals for us?! I'm really wanting to see some of the four and five-cylinder Atlas builds, Aunt. There doesn't seem to be anything here on TH-cam!
Would have been so awesome if GM had done this (edit: a 4200!) themselves instead of that damn 3.6 V6. It's not like they didn't have the parts!
Blame the epa bullshit
Foreal
Roflmfao!!!! That is true!!!!
@@shadowopsairman1583 Environmental protection sucks!...or something.
@shadowopsairman1583 Blame corporate accountants, they wanted a motor that would fit in as many platforms as possible to save money.
It would be pretty sweet to see Motion start marketing your 4200 products. Partnership style
"Golf Course" round of applause for your Dad, you and all the other excellent people behind the scenes making it all come together and happen.
Best of luck. 😊👍
Very cool project! Love the new brackets that you're making available to the community!
I think you earned some horn toots with this one. Very nicely done. Can't wait to see the initial drive footage!
That high five at 22:04 is awesome! With smiling ear to ear.
Always wanted to build more of a race ear with my father but never got to.
You're down , but your spirit hasn't been crushed. You rock Calvin!
You guys should be very proud, that is incredibly impressive to not only engineer your own system but also for it to work well.
The best things that come from such a project are the parts to make better, more efficient builds, and eventually making them available to the public.

im workin on my weed eaters carb and this guy is out starting the straight six camaro lmaoooooo hell yeah brother
This Camaro is just beautiful! You have done a amazing job with it, as well as the parts you have developed! Your helping a lot of people share in your passion!
I love vortec 4200 in-line 6 motors ! You really spread awareness about what these can do with some boost !!
Love it Calvin, great work!
Always amazing to see your innovation and invention. You guys are the masters of in house problem solving!!!!!!!!!
This car is gonna be bad ass! I like the orange, against tha yellow, then black....i really like the way it looks.
Can’t wait to see that puppy on the track!
Calvin, it’s very unusual to have the belt tensioner at the highest tension location in the belt routing. All of the power for your accessories is actually going to loosen the belt tension as load increases.
That's an idler pulley. The tensioner is right off the bracket and not the highest point
I love how clean the whole install is.
I am so excited for this one
Always excited for more 4200 content
CONGRATS ON 50.000,
ONLY WAY TO GO FROM HERE IS UP BUD !
Am I the only one who started hearing Barry Manilow in his head when Calvin said "COPO Camaro"?
I love the alternator bracket, but I wonder if you're going to have issues with the serp belt being thrown off due to the tensioner being on the wrong side of the belt path.
Cal, that thing needs a mooneyes sticker and disks.
Absolutely!
Calvin: At idle the sound reminded me of a cammed SBC... Once you got on it, Six cylinder symphony!
I'm really excited to see what she does at the track. Beautifully done guys. I'm still hoping the police find your other truck,car and trailer.

Awesome job Calvin!
Can't believe you have to run a 2nd ECU just for the VVT. Get it on that Holley!

Fantastic work on the relocation kits. Can't wait to get mine from ya
This is badass! Love the new parts! Can't wait till you get them for sale. I have a feeling this thing is gonna fly!
wow that bay came out amazing! wow im def getting that alternator relocation kit, you guys are killing it.
Cool engine. Nice to see the path less traveled explored. I’ll be interested to see how she runs down the road.

when is sema? calvin already fired it up
Congratulations on getting the Camaro fired up! It turned out fantastic. I'm looking forward to seeing you at Sick summer.
20 seconds in, LIKE! It’s so awesome to see you guys continuing on with the Studebaker theft being such a hindrance!
I love the info already about the firewall !
Just saddens me at the sametime bc this just a glimpse into what you & ur family did to the lark over the years.

Nice work, Calvin

The paint and metal work looks great. Nice job on the first fire, the wiring was on point🙌🏼.
I'm excited to see and hear the car in action at Sick Summer 24!
Toot your own horn... You and your dad have really smacked this one! So good to see your dad out and about helping and celebrating the solid first start! Take your time going forward, this one looks like a long-term keeper for sure!!
Thanks. I would not be surprised if it stuck around. I also would not be surprised if someone threw stupid money in our face to try to buy it.
@@Calvin-Nelson Stupid money has some value 🙂
HELL YEA BABY. I absolutely love seeing all of the work that you guys put into the cars and i am so excited to see it tear up the track.
Man give you and your dad a break you guys did it 😊
Haha I was going to say copo cut the firewall too
WOW just WOW, I'm not a big fan of the Camaro body style but your project, the sum of the Parts, is extraordinary.....Like the Atlas 6 install alot. This car will break records!
Great Work guys, I’m excited to this on in person. I hope to be able to make it to that Ohio race
Sooo glad to see you in a positive manner. Can't wait to see that 6 banger throw it down.
I used an American Autowire kit in a 50 Chevy last year, I really liked how complete it was with ignition switch and everything.
You guys did great overall
The only things I’d be conserved about long term on the crank sensor if you use a supercharger or make a lot of hp the crank can flex to the point you lose crank signal.
I don’t see it being an issue now but I don’t know how strung these cranks are.
Glad you have something ready to move on to. I know it won't replace the stude, but I am glad to follow along and see how this progresses!
Very cool build. It’s refreshing to see something other than a turbo LS
Awesome to see it guys, keep it coming!
American Autowire kicks ass. We use them in almost all our builds
Lets gooo! Keep the great vids coming!
Love the 58-2 crank trigger kit. Will be interested in it when it comes to market. Will make the switch to an E67 a possibility now.
I just finally got my 2jzgte running and yard driving in my 67 scout rhd I’m concerned about controlling the stupid auto trans hoping it will workout but kicking myself for doing a650e instead of a manual trans
Good to see it running!
Dang it. I grew up around the Dayton area. The year I decided to move, you're coming to town! My luck sucks. Best I've ever ran at Kil-Kare was 10.12 @149...first and last time I've dragged. It was a two-wheel Tuesday around 2006.
Could always come visit your old stomping grounds!
I wonder it would be cheaper in the long run to get a prostock tube chassis or would not work for drag and drive...
Now put a darn alarm system on it same with your tow vehicles
Do those do any good??? Maybe along w/a tracking device at least?
Done
Need hiding air tags on all , kill switches , and a tracking system .... I cant talk as all i have is kill switches , but I have 3 diff ones 😅 , someday I forget and cant start ot lmao ... but I deff think atleast some hidden air tags or the equivalent with kill switched would be the been kneez.. but I'm sure he had already done all this now
@@mastercricket7626 What are air tags?
@@UberLummoxthey have them where they make plenty of noise like they used to, can disable starting the vehicle, alert your phone of vehicle tampering
Just gotta say this man this is beautiful a masterpiece in my honest opinion this is an inspiration I plan on following in y’all’s footsteps like there ain’t nothing that describes how stoked I am for this project awesome stuff man
I bought my 2004 Trailblazer 16 years ago because of the American made DOHC 275 hp inline 6. One of the few great engines GM made that was not a v8.
Hope that baby hits the 4 digit marks love the work
That alternator relocation is perfect for my supercharged 4200 build
That thing looks and sounds awesome! Nice job!
Excellent work!! Being a Camaro lover, this build is freaking awesome
You guys BUILD EM RIGHT..!
Sanitary and shiny too..all the bits fit and managed to function.too.....lol
Can't wait to see it on the track
Fantastic work!
Awesome Keep up the good work! I'm waiting for the next issue.
Hey! I recognize that TAS on that valve cover! That's my neck of the woods.
Badass Calvin..🏁
Looks good - nice accessory drive.Well done!
Awesome job, cant wait to see it make some power!!
This is really coming together as your hero car
Please keep up the remarkable work and mods to make things better
Inspiring to watch
Cheers
You are already a master of your craft! the future is going to be great! keep at it!
I love it man! Sounds awesome.
Absolutely beautiful !! Just take my money 😂 if I could afford it . Can’t wait to see it run 8’s??
Super cool project Calvin 🤘🤘

Can't wait for the dyno run!
The car looks amazing! I can't wait to see more content with it.
Awesome work!!
