I checked out some of his other videos, he rapes two mustangs on the strip, 13.6 and 13.7 times. That's not too bad for a turbo V6. Could do better though.

Heh, the only thing I don't like are the lights on his dash. I would do everything in my power to get those things turned off. I can't stand glowing idiot lights on my dash.

It's these ones:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hmL1p...e=channel_page

The first one looks like the check engine light, and the second video is the ABS light. I'm not entirely sure what the red one is on the first video, I'm not too familiar with the GA dash.

billytheman1188 · 03-03-2009, 05:43 PM

Those lights arent too bad....my question is why does it take so long to shift when he gunned it? it sits at redline for like 2-3 seconds.....

Does the GA have traction control the our Aleros? I know that if you turn it off it will redline like that if you floor it and will not shift right away. If the traction is on it keeps the engine from revving too high, and will shift earlier.

Interesting...... im not sure if they have traction control though.

I barely floor my car cause everytime i do i always cringe....thinking about what its doing to my tranny

I try not to beat on the car too much since its all i got right now and i love ruby too much

once its built for speed...that will change

The motor is not that big; you can fit it inside the Trailblazer just fine.
Is is a bit heavy though, especially considering the cast-iron block. About 400lbs. fully dressed.
You'll need some wood blocks to sit it on, and obviously a tarp or something so you don't leak any oil/other fluids and run the Trailblazer. I'd highly suggest an engine stand if you are planning on disassembling the motor.

This gives you an idea of the size (the accessories are missing, of course - alternator, power steering pump, AC compressor, and a few idler pulleys):

And here's an old one just sitting on a couple of wood blocks on the garage floor:
