  • yea bub.... i believe youve got a thousand horsepower but its probly at the crank! Dude , if this motor had some serious power (to the wheels ) like u say it does , you would have no problem leaving a long, nice , musclecar j - hook in that concrete ! I am a true wrencher been doin it since i was in middle school bro , this is an amazing maching machine , but a 1000 horsepower (@ the wheels ) monster , sorry you are sadly mistaken , research and dyno your claims before you make them...

  • @Fordsoulburn85 Ugh. I hate having to defend videos we post. Yes, the horsepower claim is at the motor. We are high performance engine builders and have been in business doing nothing but engines since 1968. We have a DTS 2500 water brake dyno. It's properly calibrated and is not "corrected". Please follow the link in the pop up bubble for the burn out footage. As far as researching our claims, we let the dyno print out speak for itself. We appreciate everyone who watches the videos.

  • I have a 540 Dart, It's got a blower, Twin carbs, big valve aluminum heads, It's only pushing 640HP, I have no doubt that it will smoke this motor. Sorry, You Dyno this it's gonna be under 500HP.

  • @seenalotabs Under 500? We just put out a pump gas 383 that made 501HP with a mild cam and Dart heads. I have another video posted of blown 540 we built that did 950HP on pump gas (compared to the 640HP you say yours made). The 1000HP claim for this motor is based on pump gas and 5lbs of boost. It can handle race gas and 15lbs. 1000HP is conservative.

  • Awesome chevelle Im building my 68 ss right now and im about to spray the black and im gonna do the same red stripe, my car is the 325 hp 396 matching numbers with 39000 miles org butternut with black top cant wait to see it done

  • @borowskirace wow i'll bet that guys feels like a dumbass! "i been doin this since middle school" --- yeah, engine shop since '68--- HAHA owned. NICE TURBO CHEVELLE BTW! I guess word on the street is "look out for the one with the red and white stripes it will eat you"

  • I can believe this thing has 1000+ hp with no problem all these people talking shit probably dont have anything to even compare to this like they say they do

  • 41 people are gay

  • @Fordsoulburn85 Anyone talking about horsepower evidence being the vehicles ability to spin the tires really has no business trying to demean anyone's, especially a successful business owner/engine builder's, claim... A true wrencher? Why because you have a 150 piece set of Huskey wrenches and sockets with a few extensions? Seriously dude... Just watch the video and keep your shit derogatory comments to yourself.

  • Sick ride, I had a blue one in high school....never sell it brotha

  • How the hell does this have 40 dislikes..who could hate on a chevelle. And I believe 100% that its pushin out 1000 horses. Anyone who naysays is an idiot.

  • You can have my wife and her twin sister for the pink slip on this beast!

  • A record-breaking 3 miles per gallon!

  • 0:05 = eargasm
