What do you want us to do?
I want to be in the tire while you roll.
Oh, he's trying to be on some like summer camp stuff and roll down the hill.
Yeah, dude, I never got to do the tire.
We can arrange that.
Can we?
Of course.
Okay, clearly I know that Mike has never done this because he's asking to do it.
But if any of us as kids had ever done it, you would know that that ---- sucks.
Especially when you get a big ass hill.
Cut to some kids getting wrecked on that ----.
I feel like I wore the right hat today because I pulled up.
Wait, what does his hat say?
It says heart of a beetle.
Don't disrespect that hat.
There it is.
Anyway, we pulled up today to this.
What's going on, man?
How you doing?
What's your name?
I'm Kyle Gardner.
Nice to meet you, Kyle Gardner.
Look, these are the boys.
Introduce yourselves.
How we doing?
Up top, up top.
Hell yeah.
Come on.
What's up, man?
Now, I don't know you personally.
I've never spoken to you.
But I've seen this car around the internets and I see this sticking out in the very front
here.
Yes, sir.
I would assume that there's a party going on underneath.
Oh, yeah.
Most definitely.
OK.
So what do we got here?
And what year, make, and model of the truck?
And then what's it packing underneath?
So it's a 77 C10.
It's a Cheyenne.
I've had it for like 14 years.
It's actually my first vehicle ever.
It's got a 5.3 LS iron block, a Gen 3.
And it's got a 76 millimeter turbo.
OK.
Pop this hood.
I want to see it.
Since I'm not a turbo.
Oh, OK.
Boy, what does 76 mil mean?
It means that the size of the tube that pulls in the air is 76 mil around on the inside.
Pretty sure it's the inlet side, right?
Yes, sir.
The back end is what?
The outlet is 65.
Oh, nice, nice.
So not too big of a drop.
So you spool real quick, huh?
Oh, yeah.
That's nice.
Takes a second to light.
But once it lights, man, better be ready.
Holding on.
You better be ready.
Oh, yeah.
Because you don't want to hear no flu flammery today.
Nope.
I'm a flu flammer.
All right.
So give us a breakdown in here.
Now, is this a stock 5.3?
So it was a stock 5.3.
I bought it from my buddy at 100,000 miles.
We pulled it all apart.
We gaffed all the rings.
We put the trunnion upgrade.
It's got the Brian Tooley Stage 2 cam.
Okay.
Obviously, the Sniper intake.
And we're doing HP tuners.
What else?
Is that it?
Is it just intake, cam, trunnion upgrade?
Yes, sir.
That's it?
And then re-gaffed the rings.
Re-gaffed the rings.
What kind of boost are you running?
About 11 pounds.
11 pounds.
What did you make?
Like a little over 500?
About 500.
Did you see our boy here?
Yes, sir.
Come on.
Hell, yeah.
Let's talk about suspension here real quick because I see you got some more on this side.
Some QA1s.
So it's got QA1s all the way around.
It's actually got custom CNC flat plate A-arms for the front.
Yeah, I noticed.
That's what I was going to ask you about, man.
And then it's all been silver vane powder coated.
And then it's got a four link in the back with a Panhard bar.
Oh, this is a beautiful ride.
It looks good.
Thank you.
And you got some decent brakes on there, too?
This dual piston calipers.
Wilwoods.
Irox.
Yes, sir.
24s?
Yes, sir.
Oh, I know my wheel size still.
Sorry.
Gary is familiar with the most common ghetto wheels.
Okay, that's disrespectful.
Listen, listen.
I'm not saying these are ghetto.
I'm just saying, you know what?
I've seen many third gens around these parts rocking the 24-inch Irox.
Third gens in red and blue down Crenshaw on a Sunday.
You'll see them chrome just driving.
That's why I do Chevy appropriate big boys.
Extended lug nuts.
Yes, sir.
You got an axle in here, huh?
I twisted a 10-bolt in my other truck, so I started upgrading this one.
It's a 12-bolt with a Detroit TrueTrack, and it's got chrome on the axles also.
Nice.
So this is a real boy now, huh?
Yes, sir.
It's ready to party.
And you got real brakes, not none of that drum bullshit.
Yes, sir.
Disrespectful.
Hey, hey, hey.
It's all right.
I got drums on the back of my K5.
That ---- does not work at all.
You got your fuel tank in here?
Yes, sir.
It's still a stock tank.
It's just they shaved the gas cap right there off the side, yeah.
That's awesome.
Eventually going to paint it.
I like that.
That's clean.
See how smooth that is right there?
Smooth.
So you don't have any issues with it rubbing or anything?
Nope.
Okay.
Look at that side dump right in front of you, Zack.
To your right.
Oh, I see it.
Oh, wow.
Is it all straight piped and whatnot?
Yeah, it's actually got to cut out about three feet after the downtube.
The turbo, yes, sir.
Appropriate.
It's right about right in the middle of the truck.
So I was just seeing, I can't see it, but on the camera I can see a little bit.
Oh, yeah.
Did you take and box the rear section of the frame?
So it's actually been back halved.
When they did all the suspension, they took the bed off, they cut the frame,
and did square tubing C-notch all the way in the back, obviously.
That's awesome.
Linked it up to the existing frame.
Hell, yeah.
So if any of you people have owned an old Chevy truck and put some power to it,
you will know that if you don't reinforce anything,
they get real, real spaghetti-like.
Oh, yeah.
Gets a little twisty-like on there.
What's your ultimate purpose with the truck?
Did you build it to drag, to drift?
Just kind of street truck, party truck.
Just like it.
It's a truck.
You truck with it.
You trucking stuff.
I'm just trying to check his intention.
I like where he's at.
I built the truck for two reasons, hauling ass, partying.
Goddamn right.
What do we got on the inside, man?
Oh, yeah.
We can pop that, no problem.
Actually, captain seats.
They're actually 07 Duramax seats.
Okay.
Yeah, dude.
With the center console.
Right when I put it in, I sat down, and I was like, man, that's just meant to be.
You know what I mean?
Yep.
Let's go, baby.
Real quick, I mean, you got some big twin spalls here.
What size radiator is this?
I believe it's a four core, and it's actually a pre-runner radiator.
It's got dual 16-inch fans.
This is something people forget about on cars.
Yes, sir.
If you can't keep your car cold and lubricated, dude, it's never going to run.
You're never going to have fun.
Exactly.
You're going to be chasing your tail.
Oh, blew my hair, guys.
Oh, I did that.
Just put a nice radiator, some good fans in your ----, and drive it.
I got dual trans coolers under the cab with fans also on there.
If you can keep it cold, you can keep it alive.
Yes, sir.
That's right.
Also, I just noticed this right here.
Yes, sir.
Oh, come on now.
Got the little twisted.
I saw that, and I thought it was nitrous at first, but then I heard what you said.
You want to fire this thing up so we can hear it?
Oh, yeah.
Yes, sir.
This is the part that's tough because it's in turbo charge, so you're not going to get
the V8 until it's on the pipe.
Oh, I don't know, man.
Dude, she's still got a little rumble.
That's not the V8, yeah.
It's still got a little rumble to it.
Now, is there a muffler on this?
It's got a straight pipe.
It's dumped.
So it does have a muffler, but I have a toggle switch.
Okay, so is this straight pipe right now?
Yes, sir.
Oh, that's the straight pipe.
Wait, put the-
It gets real quiet.
Let's see what it's like in street mode.
Right?
Okay.
Oh, wow.
I'm just saying.
Yeah, so that's the quiet mode.
Okay.
Man, that's docile.
Yeah.
That's very-
That still has like a V8 rumble, though.
Yeah.
Right?
That is badass.
You know it's something in it, but you don't know what's in it.
Yeah.
Pull my two-step in.
Yeah.
Nice.
Hell yeah.
Man.
Is that corked or open?
What's that?
That's open.
Is that open or corked?
Yeah, that was open.
It's crazy how much a turbo can quiet stuff down.
Right?
It's a restrictor.
It's essentially a muffler.
Yeah.
I like it.
Well, all right.
I want to tell you what.
You want to party?
Hell yeah.
Let's do some driving.
You all want to party?
Hell yeah.
We're going over there.
Let's go.
I want a turbo V8.
That sounds fun.
I think I lost the belt.
Oh, man.
There she is.
I found her.
Oh, shoot.
Oh, wait.
Why do I have no power steering?
The champion's belt.
That turn.
There you go, sir.
Brother.
There we go.
I drink a beer.
I drink another beer.
More beer.
More vodka.
Like you said.
Five-three, baby.
Oh, man.
Too tall, baby.
Approved or what?
Yeah.
Yeah?
Yeah.
Or you can put that belt back on if you want to keep partying.
All right.
You want to do another one real quick for the one time?
Yeah.
Let's do it.
You don't need my stinking power steering belt.
Well, you need two, man.
Oh.
Damn.
I know steering, man.
Yeah.
I'm sorry, sir.
Thanks for coming out.
**** yeah, dude.
Hey, I appreciate it.
