In a two-part series, and In preparation for a burnout show, I'm installing a Weiand/Holley 142 blower, Holley carburetor, and other goodies on my 1980 Chevrolet corvette. With the pulleys provided, I should get around 5-6 PSI and turn this 4 speed into a tire fryer! I've got an idea for brakes to give me a little advantage, as well as special colored smoke tires. You can't miss this behind the scenes style video

If you'd like to try some colored smoke tires for yourself, search their huge selection at www.highwaymax.com and use code "ViceGripGarage" for 10% OFF! I don't make a penny from sales, but instead, want to pass a discount down to my channel fans.

    A guy has a lot of things: - Knowledge - Free Time - Patience - One-liners Respect.
  • @tonny.c
    I can't believe how much the guy pushes himself to do these videos and not run out of stamina and just throw everything through a window out of frustration and just pure tiredness. This guy... This guy is a champ champion champiogne champagne. God damn. It's unreal. He didn't even got mind bottled through all this.
  • @richarda3659
    Don't let this guy's "awww shucks" demeanor trick you - you're looking at a seriously brilliant mechanic here.
  • @vf19blue
    There is nothing close to this show, for general interest, specialist knowledge and a good laugh out loud pretty much every minute, great value!
  • @Ronalyhotham
    "Tighter than Jlo's half -time outfit" surely the best yet!!
  • Me being a lady who knows nothing about cars but driving them...I love watching you bring these old cars and trucks back to life! You are a very funny genius...keep up the good work!
  • Hands down the best Channel on YouTube I can watch this 24/7 and keep putting a smile on my face good job keep up the good work

    "Jessica wouldn't let me bring my Harbor Freight ones." 😬
  • @Andrewausfa
    The shape of the body on these (and those) Corvettes is something else, hats off to the designer. Forget the blower, a new eight track player in the cockpit would add 97.657 BHP to the rear wheels.

    "What is this thing? I don't know." Then he throws it. This is the best channel on YouTube.
  • @billbufford2320
    "Gotta find somewhere to put this so I can lose it." My life in one sentence.

    Trying to protect paint= Puts duct tape on paint= I love this guy.
  • @chrisoneill4211
    When a car diesels like that when I was a kid my Dad would say it runs so good it doesn’t want to quit!
  • @vhfgamer
    In case nobody got that Harbor Freight jackstands reference he made... I'll cue you in. Harbor freight did a massive recall on just about all their jackstands. Supposedly the tooling they used at the factory was worn out and they were dropping cars on people. Just a warning.
  • @cassiegrace30
    Get that camera guy a tripod, he's not chasing a criminal on cops 😂 making me dizzy with the wobble cam haha
  • I still think these are beautiful cars. But I’m British so what Would I know. But give my a thumbs up for driving a 53 Chevy
  • @Dave-hs3xf
    Although he pretends otherwise he knows exactly what's he's doing. A really entertaining show and I'm enthralled finding new episodes with old dinosaurs he breathes life back into. I'm a believer
