GM 572ci BIG BLOCK 5 SPEED 1970 NOVA GETS A TUNE & RIPS THROUGH THE GEARS!

- Опубліковано 26 вер 2024
- I’ve been working on this beautiful Orange 1970 Nova off and on for a few months, ever since Billy swapped the stock 10 bolt for a STRANGE 9” with 3.50 gears, and pulled the M20 4 speed and replaced it with a TREMEC TKX 5 Speed.
Unfortunately someone had gotten into the carburetor and kinda messed it up. And despite what some think, 🤣 I don’t HAVE to just replace every Carburetor I come across with a brand new ATM.
Believe it or not haters… I can actually tune engines well enough to correct issues I didn’t cause to begin with 🫡
BUT, can I actually DRIVE IT? 572 CUBIC INCHES, 5 SPEEDS, and a 50 year old washed up Ditch Digger… what could possibly go wrong?! 🤣
PLUS!!! Vicki drags me to COSI to visit the Titanic Exhibit and we got tossed out of the parking garage, and almost tossed from the exhibits themselves. 🥴
The Oldman made some hollywood magic with his editing!
Insomnia gang here and excited for another great video. Thank you Bill
here with ya buddy comes out at just the right time
Add time change. Omg.
@ErikHyndmantohope you feel better soon. Ive had both and its not nice, especially being an asthmatic.
Bill does it.make u a proud papa watchin ur boys take over the builds..how far they came, tearing apart pulling engines, dropping engine's completing projects stsying out of trouble.watching the src/omg empire continue to grow.its awesome
Few more mechanics and they'll be knocking them cars out
Sweet love the nova man
Yes, it does.
I LOVE 💕 HOW THE OLD MAN IS FUNNY AND ROMANTIC! He's a good husband and Father that really cares about their happiness 😊. Great job! Anyway, thanks for the video 📸.
Bill your advancements at Vicki are resembles the ones i have tried on my wife and they literally have gotten me the same response lol. You always put a smile on my face so thanks for the awesome entertainment. All this free knowledge about carbs and distributors im hoping the newbies are taking notes. God bless and as always be safe.
Awesome video! I love ripping stick shift cars, there is just something about rowing through gears that gets me through my troubles.
Always love the SRC family’s videos all of them are awesome Tommy and Alison had a good one tonight also
Bill, you are a genius when it comes to those carburetors. Don’t let anyone else tell you different the people who are saying that probably have never done it before. Keep up the good work man.
I'm with you and the old man on this, a screwdriver and a carburetor work's fine especially if you have the ear and knowledge that Bill has ..
Bills probably forgotten more about carburetors than most people know...🙏🇺🇲🇺🇲OMG🇮🇪🇮🇪🙏
Laughter and education, just can't beat that. Bill just being Bill and that's just who is in person as well. What you see is what you get, love it brother. Great video man.
The carburetor professor does it again, great job Bill.
The man of the carburetors is the old man for sure he knows how to tune them and make them run and I think when the Monte Carlo gets done with the turbos the old man is going to surprise everybody on it and show them that the old man still has what it takes to keep up with the young guys with fuel injection stuff. I can’t wait to see the old man banging gears in the Monte Carlo with twin turbos with an atm blow through carburetor on it
Always anticipating bills uploads and always he comes through with great content! I must say the quality of your videography has immensely improved over the last year . Thanks bill for keeping us in the loop
Mark gotta be like Elmer and keep a long barrel for when Bucko comes in to give him grief! 😂
Mr BILL you do the best videos .Your narration makes them .Thank you for sharing a snapshot of your life with us.My father and uncles drag raced in the 60s throught the 80s now i want to get back into it.I wish they were still around for there guidance .I am a professional mechanic by trade but there expertise like yours with drag racing is so important. Technology with this sport has changed since thoes days and to be honest i am lost !
It is nice to see you and the boys with Wyatt hanging out
Well, Well, Well….ha! Said that at a car show this weekend and a guy right away asked me if I watched the Old Man Garage? Said hell yeah I do. Bill’s taught me everything I need to know in life. Keep on keepin’ on Sir. Don’t sweat the haters. They are not worth your time.
Bill- Good catch on the bent linkage! Lockin in at 38' changed the sound and can hear it thru the shifts!
That's one nice Nova . Love to watch your videos but when the music at the end starts .... bummer it's over already. Thanks Bill
Didn't realize he decided not to hook up the Dyno. 😢. Was looking forward to it being in the shop
They're going with a different style dyno I believe. This one would take up to much space
@@kiotewolfer3278 oh good. I must've missed that
MY FAVORITE GARAGE CHANNEL!
😁👍🏼
Banging gears in that big block Nova was great to watch. Nice video Mr Bill
It's hard to beat a big block Nova with a manual transmission for a fun street car. Love that thing! I had a 69 Chevelle with a 427 big block 4 speed in high school, and I have a lot of great memories with that car. Good video, brother!
I installed the sealing in the Titanic museum thing that’s parked on the strip in Branson, Mo.
Thank you Bill I always enjoy watching your videos right before I go to bed
Thank you to you and your family for helping me get through the rough days. We appreciate all of your hard work.
I actually know a hillbilly that lives in the city. For the life of me. I can't think of a reason to do anything in any city. But love your videos. Old school and power.
I think it is hilarious the ad at the beginning of this video was for dentures 😝
Little Billy is growing fast!
Was going to bed. But how could I not watch the old man banging gears in a big block !!
The old, fast NA muscle cars are still my favorite. Nice to see you and Vicki get to sneak off for a little time alone. Good work young man, really good video!
What's up, bill?.. You're damn smart. I always listen as I work on Holleys..I was the first one on tonight.
I really learn a lot looking at this.....
Big block sounds great💯 I may be FORD to the core but I'll give props where props are due and the Old Man has that BBC ON POINT💯
My night just got 20 minutes longer lol. I keep commenting on the kids channel and telling them they need to do more just normal around the garage vids. These always remind me of growing up in the garage with my dad working on his built S10 and Chevelle’s and always tearing my dirtbikes down rebuilding them ect.
All that on pump gas! Awesome! Very sweet car and epic upgrades your buddy will be tickled! (and if not i'll take it off his hands) ((Even tho it stumbles in 3rd at 500rpm)) lol
Pop’s comment on the lighting bug had me dead 😂💀
Your night shift gang is up and ready for a kick ass video.
I never ever miss old mans videos they are so good
I watched this way earlier this morning while i was at work, and I'm not happy in which the way i watched the video...
In my uncomfortable, cramped co worker filled, work truck.
So now that I'm off work, all cleaned up, and belly full.
Only now can i truly enjoy this video that i cherish so much.
Thanks Bill and Family, you all are appreciated and Loved all over the world.
Wishing nothing but the absolute best for you guys.
the Nova's were the hot ticket in the 1980's street racing in SoCal, when i was growing up.
Nothing better than waking up to some TheOldMansGarage!
I just love the amusement in all your videos thanks 😅
Sure glad you put a big block in that Nova bill🔥💪😁
Old man wants his wife, Cmon Ms Vicky he loves you ❤ LOL God bless u two 😊
man that 77 high boy in jax wax sure is beautiful
I’ve been a Chevy guy most all of my driving life (and that's a long time, a whole bunch of years older than Bill H.). I’ve had some pretty decent home built hot rods over the years and still have a rare Chevelle ragtop I’ve owned since new, over 53 years. I just enjoy the hell out of the Old Mans Garage series and even more so Billy the Kids episodes. Right now, my son and I are playing around with his car at his house, a 72 Chevelle pro street 2 Dr hdtp w/468BB, modified turbo 400 trans, coil over ladder bar suspension [3 link] and a 4.11 Dana Posi rear. Future plans call for a bigger motor, min 540ciBB. Just love the 572 Nova and B the K’s race truck ! Keep up the great work Bill, Billy and company. Your series rock and make my day !
I'd rather watch your videos than 90% of what's out there on cable
Loved the water fountain scene 🤣 Omg I can't take u ANYWHERE! 🤣😂🤣😂
The old man is a great narrator, I could care less about the Titanic but he made it worth watching
Cool 😎. Love wakening up in the morning to a awesome video 😊 . Thanks Bill !
Watching the old man bang the gears, If you notice he still took it easy on it, His hand was in the right place everytime he shifted or bang the gears, The old man is old school..
I just love yalls channel. I wish there were more like it. Keep up the great content. Much love from Maryland❤❤❤.
Excellent video as always I enjoyed when you were arguing discussing the Nova at the end of the video Good Times
The best old school carburetor tuner for sure😁 Novas beautiful. Looking forward to the Monte and the falcon👍🏼💨💨💨🏁
Thank you for another great video and all the hard work from everyone I really appreciate it and look forward to seeing the next video from the whole team much respect. GOD BLESS YOU ALL!!!!!!!! ✌🏻from Ga.
Thank you for another great video Bill
That orange Nova is sweet ! Sounds so good ,what a awesome street car !!
He said “half the time I don’t think she knows what I’m tryna do either 😏👀” 😂
Every man in here felt that
That Wyatt is one smart looking young lad..love it
We used to be a food source for those big ol skeleton remains thing's and I'm guessing they were pretty sneaky while being on the hunt..I watched Titanic several times, purty durn good movie and I use to have the DVD..I can only imagine what it'd be like to watch it on a big screen tv instead the older box tvs..I still have 1 and I still watch the thing every now and then..I used to love tinkering with carburators and all the things it takes to get peak performance and I use the want to yank the gear shifter out of the floor cause I use to love grabbing cogs instead of awful matics doin all the work for me..After building a 66 Belvedere with a 727 trans with 4.11 gears and a shift kit in the trans wasn't no missing 3rd gear anymore and it spoiled me but I still love yankn cogs with a 4 or 5 speed stick. Backwards to the shift kit. I watched the guy do the transmission and it's crazy how he rerouted the fluid and all that..It makes me wonder who the first person was to figure that out cause when I'd click into another gear itd hit harder than any 4speed I've had..I got into Mopar for awhile but I'm back into Chevy's after I figured how much power these newer LS engines make..I still can't believe it although small block Chevy's and big blocks never hurt the wallet to bad and if I ever wanted a big or small block engine..I'd go on the hunt of worn-out looking campers and some of em was given to me to get em out of their yard lol..Big ol 454 or a 440 engine setn in em with very low miles and if I'd ever wanted a Chevy 350c.i engine I'd go on the hunt for a small Chevy camper that was trashed inside with a 350c.i 300hp 4bolt main engine. Do everything on a cheap budget and I ended up with 700 to 800hp easy especially buying new heads in the corner at Summit Racing..People that ordered stuff and didn't come to get it, sometimes you can hit jackpot and buy the whole corner full of stuff cheap like 50% to 75% off the regular price...My daughter lives like a mile from Summit Racing in Tallmadge Ohio and that's my info with parts and yes they will overnight discount parts..My first time going into the store. It blew my mind how well stocked they were..Heads camshafts and everything on the shelves. I think you could build a complete car, if they'd let you and drive the dagon thing outa the parking lot and roll..They have everything and it blew my mind. Headlights taillights body's frames, everything lol...What's even more amazing is Summit County Ohio was Summit Racings first of 6 or 8 stores nationwide...I'm pretty sure they can get anything you'd want or need..Love the SRC Channel and yalls youngns are doin exactly what me and my brother did...We were constantly building something for drag racing and it bugs me where I'm living now. .People don't know anything about building horsepower cause they think a 4barrel intake with dual exhaust and a hoodscoop is all they need..They know nothing about camshafts, spray and all that..I have managed to take several car's with a 4cylinder Pontiac Grand Am 2.2 ecotec 4cylinder engine and I reckon I'm just outdriving em here in Wva in a small town of people that just don't get it lol..I could've taken a couple Chargers and Challengers with car's I've won but they wasn't paid for so I'd make em throw cash in the pot and take it..Enough of my rambling, I'm just into the sport that I started doing in the 70s into the early 80s..I don't remember why I quit racing, maybe I's to interested in raising my bbgrl that's in Tallmadge Ohio doin great, I hope cause she wouldn't tell me if she wasn't doing well..Nah, she'll tell me cause she's always been straight up with me..That's a bad ol Nova and I know I'm fixing to sound so silly but in the 70s a buddy of mine had a 68 or 69 Nova with a what we thought was a 250 straight 6cylinder engine with a 2speed power glide trans in it..His brother has a 66 or 67 Nova that got a vehicle smashed into the roof of the car cause the way some of the dirt roads and driveways are in Wva, you can honestly get your vehicle trashed by someone running down a dirt road onto the pavement and over the embankment into the roof of a car or truck..Anyhow, back to the 68 or 69 Nova..The only salvageable part on the 66 Nova street car was the rearend cause everything else was smashed badly..A 66 Plymouth Satellite Sport met the same fate..Anyway, we put the rearend and found a 4barrel intake for the 68 Nova with N50 Mohawk tires on the rear, that little 6banger would swell the tires up and outrun V8 engines that wasn't really built..Stock engines with what GM said had 325 to 375hp in a 327 engine..I was so amazed how well that 6cylinder red Nova ran..I'm thinking 13.26 seconds wasn't bad for a quarter mile run, so he said plus he showed me the E/T slip of paper from the track cause I had to work that weekend. Race night was any night up Armstrong Creek Rd where I was born and raised..They used to race under Montgomery Wva bridge on the weekends until the poleece started lining up with em and away they'd go but they always had the 4 lane blocked at the other end and people stood on the overpass and never warned anyone that the road was blocked with poleece lol..The audience just wanted to see races so we went waaaaay up in the coal holler I grew in and made our own straight 8th mile place to race..It was pavement but I didn't have any problems with it..Only thing I didn't like is when a sore loser tried putting me in the creek that was a good 60ft drop over the bank into the creek..One time was all it took..I thought, if ya wanna play bumper car's I'm game. .I gapped the guy and on the way back down the road I pushed him wide open down outa that holler cause everybody seen him trying to wreck me. .I'm pretty sure that I pushed him waaaaay over 100mph down the road until I thought he had enough and yes we fought but that was nothing unusual. .We never let him race anyone in our loop but I don't know if he ever tried to wreck anybody anymore cause it's not cool, especially at high speeds. .I didn't care if I won or lost cause I enjoyed doing it lol. .20 to 50 bucks is all we'd race for but after winning several races that was good money back in the 70s lol..I almost quit my job just to focus on racing until I started losing badly so I decided to stay employed and keep it thataway lol...
Absolutely loved seeing the 'Old Man" going through the gears in this hot rod!!!
We sure appreciate the humor 😂
You make Tony look like an amateur banging those gears. 😂😂
And the Old Bird sounds great, Tommy is going to love that HP increase! Cannot wait to watch it run...goooo Tommy 2 Guns.
Keep on keeping on (As they say) doing what you're doing because you're good at it, and without taking the fun out of it for you. When you're having fun it shows on the videos and in my opinion it is one of the main differences in your videos versus others out there. Thank you Bill
No injectors need that carb is right Oldman is like a carburetor god I love how them 4 barrow sound
Wyatt is such a good looking little fella
The 3 wealthiest men in the country (who all said no to world banking ) were on the titanic the night it sank…. And basically 48hrs after it sank things were in motion to start world banks👀. 🤜🏼🤛🏼
Hell yeah man that nova is so sick!
I missed the Titanic exhibit when it was here in Pittsburgh, wanted to take the kiddos, looks like it was a nice exhibit, always captured my interest, such a tragic event, but one of the most intriguing shipwrecks of the last 200yrs, and even more so after the submersible implosion last year.
Definitely needed a change of pace it was an awesome video bill feel like we're part of your family always showing us your daily life which I think is awesome and a special shout out to the little man Wyatt totally love him
That Nova sure sounds good, banging them gears was awesome to. Got some decent weather here in Michigan today, hearing that Nova got me getting antsy over here, might have to get something out my garage and go play around.
sounds so good with turbo style mufflers and not flowjunks and some others...especially at idle
Nice nova I’m 63 and I’d sport it 💪💪💪
Never go to the pad without BJ's blessings.
Another one in the books 🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤
Fantastic video seeing you cruising through the countryside makes me homesick!
I remember the coal mine exhibit in the old cosi. Used to go every year, I cant remember if it was with school or the scouts. Thinkin scouts. Spend the weekend there, it was so cool. Think my nephew needs to go and I need to take him. Jegs on the way back.
Billy showing the Old Man how to bang gears lol
beautiful nova man! great job!
Too cool you are the master at carbs mad respect Bill looks like fun
Bill thanks for another great video. You are the master of carburetors no doubt. Thanks for sharing your experience knowledge and journey with us. I say get the same engine for your Nova!
Nice work ole man on the Nova it’s in Pristine condition your friend will definitely be happy 💪🫡
Bill I truly love you and Billy's relationship ❤️. Cherish that ❤️. Me and my dad had a stumbled relationship until I was in my 30s . Few years later he was gone 😢. Are 1 common love was cars. God Bless Yall
Seen Jegs while in Columbus just passed by like a little Wal Mart from the outside would have loved to stopped - keep banging gears
Man I love ❤️ sound of the Big Block 572👍🏾
Another great one for the nightshift! Thanks Sir
Very clean Nova. Nice car
Going to go out on Limb here, but no one points out your not just good with the carb. Your good at tuning an engine period...timing, carb, understanding what components are causing what for each engine you work on. Always impressed thanks for sharing
Went to the Titanic museum in Pigeon Forge with my wife on birthday trip for me. It was very interesting .The Falcon sounds awesome and should really fly this upcoming season.
Hey Bill the wife says Wyatt looks strong holding his head up and double cute really happy for the family great video
The Honey Do turned out great. Hats off brother..
All those pro charger shirts and hats Billy been wearing is definitely on purpose and telling us something lol
Pretty awesome. Getting closer to swapping out my mustang to carb. Got me a xp 650 of face space couple nights ago, just waiting on cylinder heads.
YEAH BUDDY!!! Another very cool vid Bill, thanks!!!
I'd like to see Billy do something different with the splitter on the falcon. Can u imagine how much it slowes the car down? Great video as always👍
Just got home from work watching the video
Love that Nova!
Nice job on tuning the Nova Bill. 🇺🇸
Damn....I love that car..mine was a 70 also!❤
