Turbo LS '95 Chevy: Grandpa's Former Daily Driver Turns Into Drag Truck! (Test Hits with a Dragy)

What happens here

The video opens with the team driving to the drag strip. Upon arrival, the truck is still on the trailer. The objective for the day is to test the truck with its new intake manifold, specifically to see if it runs correctly and to conduct initial tuning. The plan is to perform a direct comparison (apples-to-apples) with previous track performance, but acknowledge that the current track conditions (wet, no-prep) will make this challenging. The team anticipates using both the main track and the return road for testing depending on how the truck performs.

Goal: Prepare for initial vehicle performance testing and tuning at the drag strip.

Tools and materials

  • Custom Truck Chevrolet — The vehicle to be tested and tuned
  • Flatbed Trailer — Transporting the custom truck to the drag strip

hey suck it nerd four wheel drive let's be loading the rain those are not zip ties when they're there permanently they become lightweight race fasteners what are we doing today dylan see if it runs with this new intake on it just see if it runs we're gonna hope and pray it runs but we have the entire track to do whatever the heck we want yeah yeah um just us here today there was supposed to be a rental but being florida like it is the rain comes and goes as it pleases so rather than have folks drive a couple hours they uh just said if you want to go after it if it rains you're on your own you're doing some no prep testing on the probably the return road or do you want to use the actual track um we'll probably end up doing both depending on how well it runs um i would like to make sure that it at least does what it's supposed to from this end and then once we get that working and the tune-ups happy with the new intake and stuff we'll actually try to make it do things on the other side i want is pretty much as close to an apples apples comparison as i can from the last time i was here at the track from intake to intake now it's obviously no prep up here but there's still a substantial amount of rubber and that's not usually an issue for me so if we can get a quick apples to apples and then we can start playing with it on the other side
