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. |

Hurst Edition Trans Am proves the Screaming Chicken will rise from the ashes
Wed, 31 Oct 2012It seems the Pontiac Trans Am steadfastly refuses to die. Ever since Chevrolet was granted a retrofied Camaro to compete with the Ford Mustang, Pontiac lovers have lamented the loss of this 1970s icon. And, looking at the Hurst Edition from Trans Am Depot, shown here at the 2012 SEMA Show, may explain what all the fuss is about.
It's not going to appeal to everyone's muscle-car tastes, but there's certainly room for a brash-and-bold black-and-gold Special Edition in many a Trans Am lover's garage. After all, if you want the keys to a custom pony car, you'll certainly get noticed in this one. If this scheme isn't your bag,, you can alternatively order your Hurst Edition in white and gold or silver and black. Oh, and don't forget a color-coordinated Screaming Chicken on the hood.
No matter which way you choose to go, your inner Burt Reynolds will appreciate the Eibach suspension kit, forged wheels with Pirelli PZero tires, functional shaker hood, fender air extractors, rear spoiler and, of course, a Hurst shifter inside. The interior is emblazoned with all manner of special touches, including a Hurst dash plate and T/A stitching on the Katzkin two-tone leather seats.
GM recalls full-size truck, SUVs and vans over faulty shifter mechanism
Mon, 07 Jan 2013Twelve different General Motors vehicles from the 2013 model year, up to 54,686 units in total, are being recalled over two potential issues with their steering columns. The models in question, all full-size trucks, SUVs or vans, are the: Cadillac Escalade, Escalade ESV, Escalade EXT, Chevrolet Avalanche, Express, Silverado, Suburban, Tahoe, and GMC Savana, Sierra, Yukon and Yukon XL.
The affected vehicles were built with a fractured parking lock cable or "a malformed steering column lock actuator gear in the lock module assembly." As a consequence, they could shift out of park without the brake pedal being applied or with the key removed or in the off position.
A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration indicates that the recall should begin on January 17. GM will notify owners, at which time they can take their vehicles to their dealers for repair free of charge. Have a look at the bulletin below for more information.
Experimental mid-engine XP-819 Corvette going up for auction
Sun, 17 Feb 2013It seems to be commonplace that when a new Corvette is in development, rumors swirl about a possible mid-engine layout. As is the case of Chevy's most recent C7 Corvette, these rumors never pan out.
In any case, the idea for a 'Vette with an engine mounted behind the driver can probably all be traced back to a single car, the 1964 XP-819 prototype. Built as an "engineering exercise" back in 1964, the prototype was designed with a rear-mounted engine. History tells us that the idea of a rear-engine Corvette fizzled, and the XP-819 was eventually cut up into pieces and stored at a shop in Daytona Beach, FL.
After sitting for untold years, a restoration project started on the car, and while it isn't yet fully completed, the current owner of the car, Mid America Motorworks, will have the car on display at the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance as a "driveable chassis" with hopes of having a fully completed car ready to bring to next year's show.
