84 Chevy C10 Custom Bagged Ridetech, Porterbuilt,accuair, 5.3 Ls on 2040-cars
Corona, California, United States
|
This 84 Chevy C10 has everything. The truck started as an everyday California truck a few years ago, but was tore down to the frame and built backup. The paint has its share of nicks and dings here and there but almost everything on the truck is new. Started with a blank frame stripped it down and had an 8” step notch welded in the back and notches in the front cut out for a mustang II rack and pinion. Then coated the frame in POR-15 to prevent any rust (not like we’ll see much rain in CA). Once complete assembly began with the following parts Porterbuilt V2 Dropmember with LSX engine mounts (Power coated silver) Ridetech tubular upper and lower control arms (painted silver) Ridetech airbags front and rear Porterbuilt front sway bar Belltech drop spindles KP Components Cantilever 6 link (Power coated silver) KP Components Watts link (Power coated silver) Brothers Truck rear 19 gallon fuel cell Brand new fuel and brake lines ran from master cylinder to each wheel. The old 305 engine was removed and replaced with a 2006 5.3 w/ 4l60e transmission. The engine was pulled from a wrecked Tahoe with 60k miles on it. A basic tune has been installed, new plugs, MSD wires etc and it runs great! Lokar shift rods adapt the dash shifter to the 4l60e. Steel braided trans lines running from the trans to the cooler. Since it lays frame when laid out the heater and AC systems were removed and a blocking plate installed on the firewall. To clean up the engine bay and prevent all the road grime from landing on the underside of the hood and engine bay Slosh Tubs fiberglass wheel wells were installed. It rides on new Boss 330 20x8.5 wheels and tires Optima battery provides tons of power for the compressors, stereo, engine and accessories; sits under the bed in a drop down battery box. Interior - In the interior, the dash was covered in black leather with red stitching, all the AC/heater vents shaved in the process. New carpet was installed, the headliner is covered in grey suede. Door panels are from Rod Doors covered in black leather and grey suede accents. Door locks were removed and AVS door popper kit installed. The AVS kit is very nice, no need for 10lb door poppers, fairly quiet when hitting the switches. Dakota Digital VHX red carbon fiber gauges were installed in the dash and wired up. Ridetech E2 digital gauges monitor the pressure of all 4 air bags with 3 presets. A Sony stereo with Rockford Fosgate amp and 2x 10” Rockford Fosgate subs make the system sound great! Custom kick panels house 2x 6.5” mids and 2” tweeters. Bed – The bed floor was raised 4” new wheel wells installed. Rear Stake holes, rear tailgate skinned and shaved everything coated in bedliner. 2xViair 440 compressors, 8 gallon tank and an Accuair Vu2, Ridetech pressure sensors are mounted in the bed on a custom mount and covered by the fiberglass Snugtop Tonneau. Exterior – Handles were shaved, led turn signals up front and rear led tail lights and new lenses. Billet front grill painted front bumper and rear roll pan. New window felts and wind wing rubbers, One Piece Products flush mount rear window. I don’t really drive this now and looking to sell this to make room for another project. Lost more parts installed, just can’t remember. I have receipts for most everything installed (over 20k), has been fun building, but time to move on. Buyer is responsible for picking up the truck.

GM reintroduces Tripower name in the worst way possible
Wed, Aug 1 2018The story of General Motors' use of the Tripower moniker begins way back in 1957, when Semon E. "Bunkie" Knudsen, then General Manager of GM's Pontiac division, directed his engineers to inject more performance into his brand's line of V8-powered automobiles. Fuel injection was an option, but hot rodders flocked instead to Tri-Power (marketed way back when with a hyphen), which grafted a trio of two-barrel Rochester carburetors onto a single intake manifold. A legend was born. And that legend was born of performance. At idle and when full power wasn't required, Pontiac's Tri-Power system used just the middle carburetor, which helped make the setup easier to tune. Depending on the year and model, either a vacuum system or a mechanical linkage opened up the two outer carbs, thereby switching from two barrels to six, and allowing the engine to take in more fuel and air. And it was an easy marketing win – six barrels is better than four barrels, right? Because performance! So, when news filtered in that GM has resurrected the Tripower name, those of us who grew up attending classic car shows and wrenching on old Pontiacs did a double-take. And then we all collectively sighed. Turns out that today's Tripower refers to a trio of fuel-saving measures that include cylinder deactivation, active thermal management, and intake valve lift control, according to Automotive News. And, at least for now, it applies to GM's line of fullsize trucks powered by a 2.7-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine. We're all for saving fuel whenever possible. And we have zero say in how any automaker chooses to market its products and technologies. But, we'll offer our two cents anyway: Relaunching a storied name from the past is fine. Relaunching a storied name from the past while completely overlooking the reasons the name got famous in the first place is only going to irritate the people who remember the name in the first place. Couldn't they just call this new technology package something else?

Nissan Leaf, Chevy Volt sales both down in June
Wed, Jul 1 2015The best news you can slice out of today's sales reports for June 2015 is that things have to get better at some point. Most likely, sales of the Nissan Leaf and the Chevy Volt will see a big increase once the second-generation models of both vehicles arrive (the Volt later this year and the Leaf, well, at some point after that). For now, though, the best-selling EVs in the US are both suffering compared to where the numbers were at last year. The numbers are also suffering compared to last month, which was the best of the year so far for both vehicles. Looking just at June, though, Leaf sales totaled 2,074 units, down 11.6 percent from a year ago (the EV sold 2,347 units in June 2014). The world's best-selling EV is now down 22.9 percent for the year so far (12,736 in 2014 vs. 9,816 in 2015). Things are a bit worse over at Chevy, where news about the pretty-much-better-in-all-ways second-gen Volt is coming out with great frequency. Nonetheless, people are still buying the outgoing Volt, snapping up 1,225 units in June. That's down 31.1 percent from the 1,777 sold in June 2014. So far in 2015, the Chevy has sold 5,622 Volts, a drop of 34.7 percent from the 8,615 Volts sold in the first six months of 2014. As always, we're working on our full tally of green car sales for June and will bring that to you shortly. For now, discuss the sales of these two plug-in pioneers in our Comments, below.

Consumer Reports criticizes small turbo engines for misleading performance, fuel economy claims [w/video]
Tue, 05 Feb 2013Consumer Reports has taken aim at at small-displacement, forced-induction engines, saying the powerplants don't manage to deliver on automaker fuel economy claims. Manufacturers have long held that smaller, turbocharged engines pack all power of their larger displacement cousins with significantly better fuel economy, but the research organization says that despite scoring high EPA economy numbers, the engines are no better than conventional drivetrains in both categories. Jake Fisher, director of automotive testing for Consumer Reports, says the forced induction options "are often slower and less fuel efficient than larger four and six-cylinder engines."
Specifically, CR calls out the new Ford Fusion equipped with the automaker's Ecoboost 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine. The institute's researchers found the engine, which is a $795 option over the base 2.5-liter four-cylinder, fails to match competitors in acceleration and served up 25 miles per gallon in testing, putting the sedan dead last among other midsize options.
The Chevrolet Cruze, Hyundai Sonata Turbo and Ford Escape 2.0T all got dinged for the same troubles, though Consumer Reports has found the turbo 2.0-liter four-cylinder in the BMW 328i does deliver on its promises.
