New Redline Rebuild Video: The Time Lapse Of The 283 Chevy Teardown and Assembly Is Here And It’s A Fun Watch

We tend to stick onto the Redline Rebuild series videos like glue around here. But this time? To be totally honest, we weren’t really THAT into the 2-bbl 283 rebuild in-depth but we sure wanted to see the end product, which we have for you below. No, we have nothing against small block Chevy engines, that’s for sure, but it doesn’t strike us as compelling (on a granular basis) as the straight eights, Mini engines, and other weirdo stuff they have done in the past. In some sense, if you have seen one SBC you have seen them all, right?

This said, the payoff video for the 283 is brilliant and like all of these, a feat of really interesting film making. It has to be pure tedium to create these films bolt by bolt and nut by nut. As the engine “takes itself apart” in a seemingly uninterrupted and smooth fashion that’s got to represent hours and hours of work.

Perhaps there is an element of cool in the sense that this engine got a small roller camshaft and that’s about it. Factory intake, exhaust manifolds, and even factory style 2bbl carb. It burbles a little but that’s about it. To a degree that’s unique these days because who doesn’t plop an aluminum intake on the thing, some headers, and a hopped up ignition system?!

Watch this little mouse motor tear itself down, get some human help, and then rebuild itself. Wild.

TX2K23 Day 1: Mustang Nearly TAKES OUT Lamborghini, 200mph Races, And MORE

Image
It’s that time of year again when everyone converges on Houston Raceway Park for TX2K. 2023 is going to be the last TX2K to be held there, as the track is going to be closing soon. Where will it be in 2024? I’m not sure, but I’m sure they will make that announcement before the end of the event this weekend. This event is known for big performances and unfortunately some big crashes too, as folks try to push their cars to the limits for fame at TX2K. This year started out just like last year, with a crazy crash that involved a Lambo. This time the Lambo was not the crasher, but almost the crashie. Check it out! Video Description: TX2K23 is upon us, which means the fastest street cars from around the United States have gathered to compete for records, trophies, and of course – bragging rights! Last year, we saw an unprecedented amount of wrecks, most of which were Supercars. This year seems to be taking a similar route, however we can’t take away from the insane level of cars that thi...

Helmet Sale: Simpson And Racequip Are On Sale Now! Quit Using A Crap Helmet.

Image
I just got back from Holley’s LSFest West in Las Vegas and the number of people who are racing, or trying to race, wearing crappy helmets, or those that are NOT designed to be used in a car or truck, still blows me away. It gets better all the time, but even so, we need more people to do the right thing for themselves and buy a good helmet. I remember when I got my first helmet that was actually bought for me to use while racing cars. It was awesome. It fit better than anything I’d ever borrowed, and it was mine. I loved it. I have had several helmets since, but regardless of my budget, I’ve always bought a helmet that is specifically made for racing cars and is certified for doing so. Helmets can be expensive, but they don’t have to be. With this new sale coming out of Holley, their Simpson and Racequip brands are both having helmet sales. Yes, a clear-coated carbon fiber helmet is going to be more expensive than a painted one. But from a safety perspective, you can get the same prot...
