73 Camaro "F-bomb" 1500 Horsepower --- PART 2

[omvallajr]

I dislike v8's but holy shit that thing is a monster

[redghost105]

These guys are just a bunch of rednecks? There is nothing redneck about 1500 horsepower and this much technology

[IaMjake71]

small block????? 1500 horse wow

[MisterUnconcerned]

Years later.... Still one of my favorite builds. Massive horsepressure in a crude, lightweight shitbox.

[chrisconwaypeters]

authentic work of american art, a fellow american that should be in an american art museum

[camaroking250]

So Tom if you want your money back I will give you the $800 the car cost...maybe even a lil bit more, better hurry tho cause I might buy a different one lol.

1985 Camaro roller 350 carbed with turbo, project 2010 almost done

[Nicholas426]

"Plus they're going to look wheelie cool" CORNY! lol

[saintrobbie375]

This is quite possibly the most retarded thing I have seen in my life. I love it!

[dcanaday426]

"good old american iron with a couple turbos on it"

way to play it off, its a LITTLE more than that.

[vaidotas86]

Toms brother looks like a tard poser.. 

[dkpunks]

To the guys talking about red Victor 1 and 2, he was the fastest street car like 4 years ago. Last years Hot Rod drag week had a car trap at over 200mph. The ET was in the 7.4 range I believe and he's planning to go faster this year

[DoctorVideoGame]

was the car on pumped gas or race fuel?

[stlchucko]

@DoctorVideoGame It'll make just shy of 1000 hp on pump @ 14 psi (if I remember correctly from the HotRod mag the engine was in). It's lowest setting is about 7 psi and it makes 750 hp. It has 2 separate fuel systems and tanks; 1 big pump gas tank, and a 5 gallon cell for race fuel. When it hits a certain psi (at about 850-900hp to be on the safe side), the race system kicks in and uses the high grade.

[y05tiE]

his brother is a tool

[rwsmith3623]

anyone else notice this camaro looks just like the one towards the end of the latest fast and the furious.

[everday13]

@rwsmith3623 thats because the one that was at the end was an fbomb rep

[cncfan]

thats because it is

[shoprat48]

they made a replica of this camaro int he fast and the furious

[boobyboob69]

@rwsmith3623 thats where the fast and furious got the idea from

[hotrods7332001]

yea its the fbomb

[micronut]

man you people can't spell.. some of you can't even speak proper english.. my god, what has this world come to, everyone speaking ebonics these days?

[98camaro1]

why does it matter?? its not the end of the world if some one cant spell.

[carhex]

i think cuz this one copst 800 bucks

[RacerDude96]

why 73? 72 has a better grill style and 71 is even better and 70 is the best in split bumper idk if this 1 is a split im 2 lazy 2 watch it but stilll

[carhex]

cuz it was 800 bucks i think.

[Qwertyplum69er]

ricer isnt a racist term

[kagolko]

don't anybody let you give you this "racist" shit. you can call anybody the way you want.

[watkinskevan]

not that he is worried about it but could you imagine the gas milage on the street

[nerd7715]

Once again, this is a subjective topic concerning preference to American Vs Import, as both have good and bad points, but it comes down to the taste of the individual. David is a big fan of powerful chevys, and alot of things from the Japanese Domestic Market with some tunig would just as easily give the f-bomb a run for its money

F-bomb is unreal by the way

[99697395]

its not fair

[screaming355]

so what if your car can turn 10,000 rpms a v8 can make the same power any v10 or v12 can at a lower rpm, you can pay over a 200,000 for a lambo or any other forein car and you can build any v8 for a hole lot less and beat anything, horse power is easy traction is the real problem

[cameltoast]

What a douche bag he's brother is!

[marek0086]

big time!

[lt1eg6]

I don't understand the point of arguing. All this American VS all else is pointless.

Most of you are watching this because you love cars. Anything with a combustion engine is brilliant. japan and Europe are small, hence smaller cars. America is a big place, hence big block engined cars.

saying either is shit is a null argument. I'm from the U.K and having a Small block V8 here just...does NOT work. I love great handling cars, but also love diff crushing American muscle.

this car is amazing

[AmericanThunder]

@lt1eg6 Finally, a voice of reason on youtube.. that's almost scary!

[NICKSmyNAMEbitch]

@lt1eg6 are u a fan of the lt1 engine

[lt1eg6]

@NICKSmyNAMEbitch I sure as hell am. Effortless American muscle that can go nuts if needs be. Alas, its not very practical here. Maybe one day Ill get to experience some crazy horsepower.

[LRGHMN]

If I was as stupid as you sound I would be a angry young man also so do us all a favor and put yourself out of your misery. I hear handgun's work real well see ya!!!

[xXxWildxChildxXx]

judging by your passion in your words you must feel threatened by american muscle... dont forget ... this is where it all started... and as for the comment about nelson using ricer parts the idea of a turbo was derived directly from aircraft engines... it has nothing to do with what car company thought it up first...

[mark4tk]

GENERAL MOTORS HAD A TURBO ON A CAR IN 1962

the japanese copy everything

GM had a timing belt in 1966 as well as ohc

GM invented air cooled auto engines in 1925

GM invented automtic transmissions , self starters , power steering , had fuel injection in 1957 ,

the rice rats stole everything from us

[rhagin1]

maybe true- but being first doesnt equate to being the best

[marek0086]

LOL... rice rats!

There are many races that make up america.

It was the American-Jews that were/are the brains of america!

Unless you're of Israeli decent..... u have nothing to brag about.

[ShepperdW]

i find it funny that nelson uses ricer parts on american engines (such as cold air intake and turbo chargers) but hey, it works and im not questioning it

[howtowakeakar]

Those aren't ricer parts, ricer parts are things such as non-functional body kits and wings.

[ShepperdW]

Ricer is a racist term for Asians, Asians have so far made the most advancements in these parts, so therefore, ricer, learn the term bro

[howtowakeakar]

Ricer = anyone who puts non-performance parts on cars to make them look like they are high-performace.

Where I live, that means kids like me (high schoolers) with their stupid Civics/Accords. However, I went American with a 1982 Chevy C10 with a 350.

[ShepperdW]

Cool, I have a 1969 c-10, fleetside, it has a 307, I may switch it out sometime, but not now

[rawnie79]

wrong, howtowakeakar is right, anyone can be a ricer, not just asians, even though they seem to have mastered the art of "ricing" a car.

[ShepperdW]

You are so ignorant in the point I am trying to make. I am not arguing what it means now, I'm arguing what it meant originally

[rawnie79]

well i guess you should have specified that earlier so ignorant people like me (you know, someone who uses the info and facts he is given to come to a conclusion) dont have to guess at what your saying. not a mind reader.

as for calling a cold air intake and turbos ricer parts wouldnt that make you the ignorant one since you used ricer as a racist term?

[ShepperdW]

2 completely convos dude

[chrism95]

that car looks like one in the new fast and furious

[ShepperdW]

it is

[xXxWildxChildxXx]

thats because it was haha cool huh?

[ARedAProduction]

that one is a dummy it's not the real one

[mark4tk]

imports killed my job = crush em all

[ShepperdW]

how?

[blast24erick]

hey gthyfah ahahahah at first i tought your namewas gay fag ahahahahahaahahahah  dumasss name

[ShepperdW]

Nelson's bro is gay

[Alucardx08x]

10 4

[mark4tk]

ferrari enzo is a lap down to the ZR1

CHEVROLET POWER BABY !!!

F Bomb will fry your honda into play doh

[blork5]

F-bomb's 800 hp/ton gets spanked and taken his lunch money by a Caterham RST-V8 Levante's 1000 hp/ton for a fraction of the price. ;-)

[ROSCObadlad]

thats nothing search for a 2000hp vauxhall victor

[missedyourmurder]

why do that when i can watch his 2000hp 63 lemans SON! TOM NELSON IS A MAD SCIENTIST on these engines! i want him to build my 454!

[usageee]

Every American car company (Ford, GM, Chev, etc.) should make their cars exactly like the F-Bomb.

Their reputation throughout the world would return to its former self almost over night!

[rspker8767]

there is no other car thats got anything on this beast..... this thing is a monster

[ZClipze]

Red victor 1 is the fastest car in the world

[rspker8767]

haha i dont give a fuck bout that thing this is muscle pure American MUSCLE

[sirlonghair]

Red Victor is a chevy engine so your right

[sirlonghair]

red victor is a BOW-TIE that brit is smart he knowes that america makes horsepower and he run's nitrious in a big block on a street car nelson just put out #004 a 69 marro with a572 BB TT that may give redV a run O yes theas nelson engines idol at 800 run smooth like glass and on pump gas till the boost hits then race fule in a whole differint tank,pumps,lines,injectors.ord­er one today get it in the mail drop it in and prea you tranny guy knowes what he's dooing.

[sirlonghair]

R.V is the quickest not the fastest

[ZClipze]

Yeah you're right. I would rather have the camaro myself. I have to check that other nelson one you said, it sounds mean

[ZClipze]

I think R.V only gets to 200mph

[sirlonghair]

but gets thear quick that guy is amazing I think I heard 0-60 in under a second.he came to a drag in the states My brother was thear said the guy baught a new injection system and was winning the next day with it put it on had it tuned and kicking ass over night thats unheard of.

[ZClipze]

Yeah it's impressive he done it on his own, i think its called red victor 2 now. Being the quickest legal road car must also mean maybe the most expensive to run, fillin up like every 10 mins or something could be repetitive lol

[mark4tk]

an 06 Z06 corvette out accelerates every fucking guido exoticar ever made

including the ENZO -guinzo

[sirlonghair]

and you can't even owen an ENZO you leac them LOL thats so they can hide the performanc they clame and your right they can't and thats the ZO6 not the Z1 stock even they just look at production numbers and think they are superiorr but they just don't want to hear the whole story stick your head in the sand mabey that will make a farrari go faster

[mark4tk]

the vauxhall has a bbc -of course it's fast wanker

[Probendriz]

where in the world v=could u find a projct 73 camaro for $800?? Im not tlkn about the fbomb, d state it wz earlier.

[Probendriz]

WooOOW d@z Cold

[RichardEllisxyz]

6:44...a B-17?? Nope, a Liberator, B-24

[qpzmak]

what was that ferrari thinking

[ROSCObadlad]

thats nothing search for a 2000hp vauxhall victor

[balla740]

the vauxhall is a prostreet car, this car is a daily driver

[GeaserakaErik]

your a clomplete retard dude this is a daily driver something that could probably make 200-500 passes without plowwin up that farm red fucker neck is all power probably surges and is just all booost pos

[gthyfah]

Your the retard! This is no daily driver! It's an over priced show and drag car that will end up in the Perterson museum. If you knew what small builders are capable of with a fraction of the money wasted on turdbomb you wouldn't be so easily impressed. Too many teenaged know knothings drool over that hyped up crap. Look up Project Heavy Metal. It's meant to sell magazine subscriptions not to be taken so seriously. I've subscribed to HOTROD and CarCraft years ago.Turdbomb = I'm never renewing.

[akulax1]

F stands for FUCKING SICKKKKKKKKKKKK

[1966caprice]

fucking sick bomb camaro ha ha ha i love it

[2vintage68]

An incredible amount of WORK and time must have gone into this project (and money!). American engine-uity lives! Thanks Tom Nelson for sharing this fascinating documentary.

[jasonb32]

the shitter took off first

[jasonb32]

damn they kept it shit green

all that work ,and shit green?-

how bout a twin turbo supercharged motor-

[camaro88iroc]

dude that color is badass, flat green, they wanted something that would stand out and looks different and they nailed it right on the head!!!!

[sirlonghair]

he has some twin supercharged Big Blocks

[primiHS]

o camaro foi praticamente feito de novo, meteram turbos no motor e vão a comparar cm um ferrari de origem? so mesmo os americanos para fazerem uma comparação desleal compararem um carro americano qualquer DE ORIGEM e um europeu ou japonês de ORIGEM e a comparar cilindrada (CC) e BHP. um europeu, por exemplo o ferrari ganha a um carro americano que tem 3 vezes mais cilindrada... não sei qual o orgulho americano nesses carros... grandes motores e depois são zero

[sirlonghair]

translate???

[importsstillsuck]

holy shit that dude with the Ferrari was flamin....whats that say about Ferrari's..nothing I didn't already figure

[Bigmanghs03]

I would much rather have a nelson car over a Ferrari!! They make the badest engines around

[327chevelle71]

why is every one compareing this car to a ferrari thats like compareing apples to oranges ther both built for totaly diffrent uses and ur out your dam mind if you think a a ferrari 360 would be faster in a str8 line idk wut your smokein buddy but to think like you i need a hit>

[alienwareboy14]

does anyone know what a chevelle contour 71' is a big block?

[unclebenz7]

Id would take the Ferrari, then sell it build a F-body for a 1/16th the cost of a of a 360 then go ahead and beat the Ferrari guy on the road. Not sure bout your area but straight line racing is a little more common than road courses in my parts. BTW its camAro

[krizla4]

LOL, how can they compare a Ferrari 360 Modeno with a custom Camero ... only in a straight line ... have you seen the tyres of that Camaro ...

Take these cars to a circuit and see what happens. There's hundreds of engineers who worked on that high-tec Ferrari, unlike the Camaro.

The Camaro is a cool car, but I think it's a very dumb comparison. I'd take the Ferrari ...

[xSenorPwnagex]

i heard this camaro doesnt even have a steering wheel. locked in str8 forward

[spezzy]

The Ferrari has a high compression motor that probably wouldn't take more than 5 Psi of boost.

[tommythecola]

You're wrong friend, go to watch some works made by "Novitec" which is a german tuner specialized on Ferrari and italian cars. One of the first things he always does, is the turbo.

[spezzy]

Non-stock internals if I'm not mistaken. I'm not really a foreign car guy and don't know too much about other modifying companies, but I doubt they would keep stock internals unless they're already forged and capable of more boost. I just wouldn't do it, 12:1 compression or higher plus boost? You wouldn't be running that on 91 octange ;).

[sirlonghair]

this car has a compleet fuil systen with race gas that turns on wene the boost calls for it tom nelson says have your cake and eat it to

[803brando]

what do you mean by high compression? 8.5:1, 9:1, 10:1 etc. any production car euro or whatever meant to be driven on a daily basis does not have over 10:1 and if you bought a ferrari with "high compression" and cant buy fuel at a gas station then theres a problem.

[sirlonghair]

tey put a newer version of this engine in a MTmosler900s called the red devel and it will out do any ferrari, 270mph 0-60 2.1 seconds and the best number 1.1 horsepower per. pound I'd take the Ferrari and put the f bomb engine in it

[tommythecola]

The problem is that you can't only think about hp and power. A ferrari with less power would beat that car in a track.

The 0-400 metres is a stupid thing

[sirlonghair]

the quarter mile is a test bead and touture ring to build horsepower no ferrari can compeet because thear engine cant put up with6000hp thear engine is heaver and more top heavy and has maney more parts to break weeker parts I might add and did you look at the moosler at nelson ferrari can kiss My red white and blue ass what car co. tells thear drivers that they can't race thear car (enzo)against track times or they will not renew thear leace thats right ferrari owns them all!

[sirlonghair]

then go watch the mosler 1800hp video

[piter690]

id still take the ferrari anyday

[erpizza]

no ma sarà una macchina facile da guidare!

vediamo in pista come se la cava con quel 360..

[akulax2]

Badass
