      5 episodes of bolting in an LS? the junkyard LS motor with turbo (2 episodes), Lucky's Chevelle, the 57 (which isn't done yet) and now the crusher Camaro.... of those, the first Camaro was cool because it was cheap tech - this? I like HR Garage, but maybe it's time to move on to something blue oval (yeah, I said it) or even something less traditional like a caddy, buick, mercury, pontiac, etc.... at least it's not yet another Mopar commercial.

        heh...at least they come out and say right in the first few seconds, that it's a re run.

            well...I fibbed...but the intro being done twice with two different cars, yeah, it looks like they know they're repeating themselves!

              Fryburger hates Pontiac so that won't happen, but I agree with you about something different.

                      my 74 chevelle did that the same, a lot of years did.
                      the cough and that dump, it reminds of a simple 300 hp n/a on a thm 250 gripping so hard tranny fluid could catch on fire as a four door pops a wheelie.

                      I was impressed with the 150F air temp on a 135 F track.
                      if they could compare something older to this on that day... we'd know why it is yet another ls swap...for the alloy.

                      and that auto tranny sucks ass.

                      The aluminum LS is good for wherever they are breaking heat records... but a lemon for the most part.

                      great show anyway.
                      I hope they get the supercharger to actually engage into a thing called gears...

                        I glossed over this earlier, thinking it was roadkill because of crusher camaro? HRG is cool but still to much yellow chevy action.
