The screwdriver plugging the vacuum line at 1:18 is a cool touch. Plus, there's always a screwdriver handy should you need it.

[keithsmith]

Richard we really do appreciate this! All of it!

300K subscribers later this month Richard! Nicely done sir.

I just wanted to thank you. It was awhile ago when you first talked about the "truck norris" and it got my brain going with my LM7. It's been running a little over 500 since then. Just recently bought a new Trax for 10k off because wew boy my mileage on a truck with that power and a 4" lift

[wheelbasemedia]

It wasn't the intention of the video, I think, but a great example of the importance of looking at the power under the curve vs. the peak number. As for intakes, I would suggest the Carbon pTR with the 'long' (less stubby) stacks vs. a Fast LSX.

[brentscott]

Good video! Probably better for people to spend their money on finding a 6.0l. I would imagine it would cost less than half to get that power from more cubes and have a much better torque curve. 👍

I've been watching you for a couple years now! Thank you for all the knowledge and being a genuine person. Definitely deserve more views!

Hell yeah the recipe ive been waiting for my drag mini truck. I bought the holley split single plane and wilson’s manifold’s 105mm 4150 TB for the flying toilet look and to mimic shawn pavlor’s sbf nitrous foxbody but in an LS application. I’m willing to lend out that intake/tb for testing!

[Kstang]

It's currently workin' season, and I'm adding to the winter build fund as I type this. Haha. HCI planned, the V2 lobe BTR n/a cams look pretty nice.. TEA heads & a ported FAST.. 500whp LS1 or bust 😎

[supercoupe]

Duel carb tunnel ram! May not help, but man, it'll look awesome!

[josemacias]

We need a maxxed out 5.3 build with absolutely everything done to it to see what the max hp NA can be without changing the stroke or the bore

[Brianbri-nqcc]

Simply outstanding as usual!💥👍👍🏽👍🏾👍🏼👍🏿

Hi Richard! I'd like to see a TPI-style extra longrunner intake with low LSA cam to increase the low-midrange torque in an LS-engine

[AnDrEw]

The one other thing you could do to take advantage of more camshaft without spending money is you could fly cut the stock pistons . Just a thought .

[thirdgenmacgyver]

5.3 torque build, street purpose truck motor, shoot for most torque under 4k rpm

[melishadiamond]

To the best of my knowledge I have a stock L59 with 706 heads. Its my family Tahoe (A Mint) it needs more but not alot more.

[brandonrohrer]

Love it. Can we compare this with the destrocked 6.0

[dogdue]

And an amazing personality to finish off.

Richard I would like see this test more suited to a daily driver truck for the best torque/power gains
