I bought this truck as a roller (no engine), almost 5 years ago. This was my first LS project and I learned a lot about the platform after swapping in 4 different engines. From oil starvation to getting taken on a junk long block.
The truck currently has an iron block 408 stroker, LS3/L92 heads, a huge cam and a 4L80 with a 3200rpm stall. It regularly tows car, boats and tractors all while making a very streetable 500rwhp.
The truck is finally completely sorted out and looking great. Which means its time to find it a new home before it breaks again. I hate to see it go, but we need the space for more projects.

Wow, this video has been in the can as film people would say. JR'S entire Turo fleet was still there.

This video was a nice surprise tonight. Glad to see Josh back at it. I hope you are doing well Josh. Look forward to the next projects.

Always good to see you and JR working together, you makes a good team. 👍

Hope all is well, Josh. This video is just what I needed for tonight!

I drove a long ways to a salvage that advertised a transmission cross member. Then the mechanic said he NEVER had a rusted out cross member when he installed a Reman Transmission. Hilarious.

That Chevy needed to leave 11's in someone else's life also... Sad to see it go but a change is as good as a holiday! Welcome back!
-
Not sure why this video escaped my attention. I'm sure someone is having a great time owning that beast.
-
If that SS had 6 speed manual it would be the perfect driver, and whole lot of fun.

I got a 2004 Chevy Trail Trailblazer LS 80000 miles needs a front windshield detailing 2500 cash

Wow, what a beast. You’ve done all the things to that truck and made it a monster. It just needs a newer corvette transmission with all the overdrives to get the rpm’s down when cruising. Whoever gets it next will have a hoot with it.

Great "Airplane" quote!

Great to see you back Josh, missed your videos. If you didn't like putting gas in the Blazer before you would really hate it with current gas prices.

A platypus is a duck that utters platitudes.
