Everything fits under the hood and the intercooler charge pipes hang a little below the front bumper so you know its turbo charged from up front. The rest: This car was built to be an efficient, powerful, reliable daily driver that you could beat up on the strip for fun. I built this car in 2008 and been driving it ever since. I’ve put over 35K miles on this combo since then. Its current combo has ran a best of 11.26@118MPH with a 1.59 60’. The tune I run on it makes approx. 600hp at the crank (475RWHP) and about 1000ft lbs of torque. This is the same tune I run every day, to and from work, to and from my kids school, softball practice……… anywhere. It’s also the same tune we ran the 11.26 on…………. Just change the tires and it’s on. This is a proven street car, daily driver, race car, commuter car, attention getter…………. Anything you can imagine, this car has it. It gets 30+ miles to the gallon with this same tune up, if you even breathe on the throttle it will light up the rear tires. This is a clean tune 475RWHP (no smoke!!!) has been chassis dynoed, mid 11’s, 30+MPG commuter muscle car that you can drive anywhere you want and get fuel at any fuel station in the world. There is nothing like this on the planet. Only a few have been able to accomplish this feat, literally only 3 that I know of with a Chevelle, but none perform this well on the strip. This car has been in Diesel Power, Diesel World and Chevy Hi-Performance Magazines multiple times. It’s had multiple online articles in Chevy Hardcore, Diesel World and Powerblock. It’s currently on the Hughes Performance Webpage and has hundreds of thousands (100k+) of hits on YouTube, key words duramax chevelle, diesel chevelle, diesel car, triple threat racing. This is the car featured on Facebook Triple Threat Duramax chevelle. Folks I love this car, it’s part of my family. My kids love this car, my wife tolerates this car, lol and I am the Diesel Chevelle man. But life has a way of making changes for you. It’s time to make some big changes and selling this car is the first step in making some big dreams come true. Good luck happy bidding and if you have any questions please feel free to ask. My name is Rick and the car is located in Northern Ca. Shipping is negotiable. |

The story of the 2014 Chevrolet SS: "Luxury, power, refinement, handling"
Thu, 07 Mar 2013Not including the women and men who built it, the 2014 Chevrolet SS has only been seen in person by a piddling number of people - fewer humans than would fill the gymnasium at a high school volleyball game. Not including the men and women who built it, no one has driven it. Even so, it is already saddled with two controversies: the way it looks and the way it shifts.
First to that shifting. Did we love the last Americanized Holden, the awesomely sportsome Pontiac G8 GXP, and its six-speed manual? Of course. Do we wish the SS came with a six-speed manual? Of course. But we'd like a toboggan to come with a manual transmission. We'd put a manual transmission on a weasel if we could because we're just wired that way; if it moves, it should come with a stick and a clutch. Or at least the option.
Let's climb down off the ledge, though. We haven't driven the SS and we have no idea how good (or not) the automatic is. And the Hobson's Choice in transmissions when it comes to sport sedans like the BMW M5, Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG and Jaguar XFR-S and, oh yeah, cars-that-really-should-have-manuals like the Audi R8 and Nissan GT-R and Porsche 918 and every single Lamborghini and Ferrari, for instance, hasn't stopped us from enjoying what is clearly the gruesome, dual-clutched demise of Western automotive civilization. Because in spite of our ululations at the dying of the six-speed light, we understand.
Chevy rolls out Silverado HD High Country
Wed, 09 Apr 2014It's been a good week for heavy-duty truck buyers. First, Ram revealed the Black Package for its HD trucks, then it rolled out its new Power Wagon, and now Chevy's getting in on the action with its Silverado High Country HD. Okay, so it may not pack quite the attitude of Ram's latest 2500-series offerings, but the High Country HD will come as a welcome addition to the Chevy Trucks range to those looking to pull their horse, boat or other trailer without skimping on creature comforts.
Rolled out a little under a year ago, the High Country trim is Chevy's answer to the likes of the GMC Denali, Ford King Ranch and Ram Longhorn. It has until now only been offered on the light duty, 1500-series Silverado, but now extends to the 2500 and 3500-series HD models, as well.
So what sets a High Country pickup apart from lesser Chevy trucks? You'll be able to pick it out based on its chrome horizontal grille, body-color bumpers, 6-inch tubular side steps, 20-inch chrome wheels (18-inch on the 3500 and 17-inch on the dualie) and, of course, plenty of special badging. But it's inside where the High Country makes its mark, with a cabin decked out in saddle brown perforated leather, seats that are both heated and cooled, eight-inch touchscreen with full MyLink suite, Bose audio and park assist functions front and rear to keep those color-keyed bumpers looking fresh. (Though Chevy hasn't yet showed us the interior of the HD model, it'll presumably look mostly the same as the cab in the 1500 High Country in the gallery below.)
Artist imagines eerie world where cars have no wheels
Thu, 24 Jan 2013The wheel ranks right up there with the telescope and four-slice toaster in the pantheon of inventions that have moved humankind forward. But what if a circle in three dimensions had never occurred to anyone, and we all had just moved on without it? Perhaps we'd be driving around in Lucas Motors Landspeeders with anti-gravity engines. Or maybe we'd have the same cars we do today, just without wheels.
That's the thought experiment that seems to have led French photographer Renaud Marion to create his six-image series called Air Drive. The shots depict cars throughout many eras of motoring that look normal except for one thing: they have no wheels. The models used include a Jaguar XK120, Cadillac DeVille (shown above), Chevrolet El Camino and Camaro, and Mercedes-Benz SL and 300 roadsters.
Perhaps one day when our future becomes our past, you'll be able to walk the street and see with your own eyes the rust and patina of age on our nation's fleet of floating cars. Until then, Monsieur Marion's photographs will have to do.
