He Turned His Grandpas OBS Chevy Into A Turbo LS 4x4 Monster!

What happens here

The owner concludes the showcase by discussing the durability of GM truck front ends, specifically highlighting the strength of the 800-series and 900-series models. He then prepares to take the truck for a drive, explaining he has both race gas and 87 octane onboard. He encourages the viewer to build a similar Suburban. Inside the truck, the owner demonstrates the loud exhaust and wastegate sounds during a drive, emphasizing the dramatic sound difference with the windows up versus down. He joyfully notes the turbocharger's approximately 9 psi of boost, resulting in roughly 500 wheel horsepower, making the truck 'spicy'. The owner also playfully points out local landmarks in 'downtown Harold, Florida,' including numerous churches and a nearby drag strip, joking about painting 11s in front of the church and the engine having a 'knock.'

Goal: Demonstrate the truck's current road performance and conclude the showcase

Tools and materials

  • Red Gas Can — Transferring fuel to the truck's fuel cell
  • 87 Octane Fuel — Standard fuel, also used in the truck
  • Race Gas — High-performance fuel for the modified engine

and don't like the four-wheel drive components have 300 thousand whatever miles on it so that's been established that these front ends take a beating the 800 front ends take a beating because that's what Gary Harris is doing yep and then the 900 is too cuz mine's still stops they're all really similar you know - a couple little deals internally they're all the same size diff and everything so we're gonna take it for a little Drive there we're kind of like in the middle of nowhere here so there's not really any closed gas stations he's got some rice gas in there now and some 87 up here so we can maybe we can putts around getting a little bit of those picks and turbo noises but I'll splice in some legitimate videos of this truck doing its thing during the editing process so you can see because it's a it's a cool little truck and it looks killer too well this is an interesting process that I wasn't expecting but it's effective are you gonna make the tonneau removable at some point oh yes guys Dealey will put a big long piano hinge over there and it's been one of those things that's like oh yeah we'll do that we'll do that we'll do that then it's a non-issue like it's an on not a big deal yeah I I think we can all relate to that because I have several of those yeah for my own thing time back burner ordeal had a stock tanking it for a really long time but after seeing about four or five guys with his trucks spit the drive shaft over there and catch on fire it was definitely something like literally just for safety I wanted to get away from the windows it's pretty wild to be honest see a lot of the windows up so like instantly like that quiet with the winter well it's so nice that way [Music] that's this wastegate yeah that's just gay about somewhere around nine pounds or so it opens up it'll creep up to ten on a football but somewhere around nine it starts crackin open they'll get moving pretty good for nine pounds on yeah so it like 9 pounds it makes in the ballpark of like five hundred wheel it runs 741 so that's in the ballpark and 500 wheel maybe give or take a little bit so for anyone wondering is Harald Florida and then we make a right-hand turn up here you will have seen all of it downtown Harold yeah this is full downtown Harold it's kind of a lot going on there's like six campers there currently Harold digging in Harold getting pizza yeah getting pizza or go to church there's two just because there are as many churches as there are houses and emerald…
