Hot Rod Garage (2014)
S8E8 Big-Block Bicoastal Swap! Our C10 gets a 454 upgrade!
Episode Overview
Our C10 short-bed conversion truck has been craving a major boost in power for years, and the moment has finally arrived to inject some serious horsepower into this awesome street machine. Hosts Tony Angelo and Lucky Costa may be miles apart on opposite coasts, but that won't hinder their mission. Tony kicks things off by installing a 1968 Chevy big-block engine, giving it a complete top-end makeover with aluminum heads, a sizable camshaft, and impressive accessories in his Pennsylvania shop. Once the engine roars to life, it gets shipped to Lucky and the current owner, Mikey P, for the installation of a fantastic Gearstar 6L80E transmission. After everything is set up, watch Mikey P unleash that newfound power down the dragstrip!
