1983 Chevy K20, Mega Mud Truck on 2040-cars
Mount Croghan, South Carolina, United States
For all you Chevy lovers out there, here you go!!!!!! More than I hate
to sale it, I just have too, cause me & "Hugabug" need a roof of our
own over our heads rather than a big "TOY2" sitting in the front yard!
Up "FOR SALE" is a 1983 Chevy K20, tho it has been customized with 21
inches of suspension lift, 54" DOT approved Michelin tires, 2.5 ton
Rockwell axles, 427 big block, 350 turbo transmission, 2500 stall,
B&M slap shifter, & new cut & balanced drive shafts. Since
the engine & transmission swap has been done, the only thing that
has been done with the truck was showed off in the 2014 Pageland
Watermelon Festival Parade, which may I add, the trucks made local TV
news too! We were really hoping to b able to carry it to Big Lick for
the last mud bog of the year, however priorities come first, & we
are in need of a home instead of a huge "TOY2". Now, you can come view
the truck, fire it up, drive it around the yard to make sure it runs
& drives properly, however, it does need some steering issues
addressed. The steering turns great to the left, but not so much to the
right, it needs the steering pit man arm centered back to the steering
box, but it also needs either full hydro added to it or hydro assist,
which I have the orbital valve, valve bank, & 2 cylinders to make it
right, just dont have the time or money to complete it, however, all
that goes along with the truck & YES, it does have a clear title in
hand! I have got a lot of time & money invested in this truck
already, but with just a little more time & a few dollars, this
truck will b one bad ass Mega Mud Truck, but for now, a home is much
more important to us! I know I wont get out of it what I have invested
in it, but I wont just give it away either, cause its surely not eating
anything, & its also paid for, so please, no tire kickers here, only
serious inquires please!! I am asking $8000.00 CASH OBRO, NO TRADES,
please read, CASH & CASH ONLY, NO TRADES!! If you feel you maybe
interested in this truck, please feel free to contact me, Aaron "Big
Daddy" Horne on my cell, & you can call or text it at (843) 517-3160
or even my home at (843) 672-6903, please no calls before 8 a.m. or
after 10 p.m. Thank You!!!!

Race Recap: 2013 Indianapolis 500 better than Bollywood; all the emotion, none of the music [spoilers]
Mon, 27 May 2013If the 2013 Indy 500 were a movie it would be the one expected to win all the little statues come awards season, and if it were an athlete it would have made spectators watch in awe as it broke record after record. And this kind of talk comes after last year's race was considered one of the best ever - the last lap hijinks in 2012 and Takuma Sato's crash leading to a podium ceremony straight out of a Golden Globes tearjerker.
But this year's race delivered more than anyone expected, from the 250,000 fans to the commentators to the IndyCar series itself and, finally, to the guy who hopped through a two-mile window on Lap 197 to take the lead and keep it until the end.
Diesel Power finds the ultimate modified oil-burner
Sat, 24 Aug 2013For nine years, Diesel Power magazine has run the Diesel Power Challenge, this year's grindfest being "a week-long torture test that features seven events, nine trucks, 8,000 horsepower, and nearly 15,000 pound-feet of torque." The road to being crowned "the most powerful truck" starts with a dyno run, and then continues through the completion of a CDL-style obstacle course, an eighth-of-a-mile drag race while towing a 10,000-pound trailer, a quarter-mile drag race without a trailer, a fuel economy test in the mountains and finally a sled-pulling test through a 300-foot-long packed-mud pit.
What kind of trucks get into such a fight? Last year's winner, for instance - who upgraded his truck this year to prove he didn't "luck into the win" - drives a 2008 Ford F-250 Super Duty with a 6.4-liter Power Stroke V8 upgraded with a custom intake, Elite Diesel triple turbos and a two-stage nitrous system. Another competitor has a 2005 Dodge Ram 2500 powered by a 5.9-liter Cummins inline-six, upgraded with Garrett turbos, dual-stage nitrous, a seven-inch exhaust stack and twin fans built into the bed to cool the Sun Coast Omega transmission. The numbers on that truck: 1,255 horsepower, and 2,063 pound-feet of torque at the wheels. Naturally, as the image above might suggest, things don't always end well.
You'll find all five videos covering this years challenge below. A scene in the dyno video sums it all up perfectly: a competitor leaves his nitrous on too long and the crew is treated to some ominous poppings, he leans out the window, throws both hands up and shouts, "Amer'ca!"
Why does the Corvette Stingray have so many vents? Here's why
Sun, 27 Jan 2013Just looking at the new 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, it's not hard to see that the car's design was created with aerodynamics at the forefront, but Chevrolet designers point out exactly what went into designing the iconic coupe in a pair of recently released videos. The videos show the Corvette going through early design phases, including clay models and wind tunnel tests, as well as talking to the car's chief engineer, Tadge Juechter.
Both videos help explain various aspects of the C7 Corvette, but it's the aero tuning of the car that is most interesting. This includes extra attention paid to the lower air dam and vented hood to help reduce drag and lift, while the rear quarter inlets are for differential and transmission cooling. Juechter said that some of these aero-tuned elements were inspired from GM's involvement in racing.
If you have about five minutes and you can't get enough information about the new 'Vette, then check out the videos posted below.
