2JZ Trialblazer or ?! 

Good on ya for diving deep into the weird different stuff

I'm pumped for this, in south Louisiana trailblazers are clean and dirt cheap and for sale everywhere.

@@haydenroyer Correct. Literally no one wants them.

Dude that thing is sick! I’ve been bs-ing with guys at work about building one of these to shove into something.

Literally the first thing that popped up to me, when he mentioned the vortec 4200 😁

All hot rodders agree that the Northstar platform is the best of all platforms.

@@eriklarson9137 no they def don’t, they all love the LS or coyote or whatever else nobody builds northstars for 1000hp like nivlac tryin to do or we’d have seen it on 1320 video or whatever else all us gearheads watch. I’ve never heard anything but bad things about the north star getting hot and coolant issues I’ve never heard or seen someone work past that and actually build one; even then I don’t think it’s the “best platform” or whatever. Show me a 6 second stock block North Star.. I’d seriously love to see it no joke at all… but I’ve see several 6 sec “stock block” coyote setups like in the snot rocket mustang…

I bet a 32v Northstar on boost would be insane

Headgaskets may be an issue on the Northstar, I have done them on stock engines. Only 4 bolts per cylinder, it's going to need studs if it's getting boost

I added the maf back in when i did the a2w set up and it hasn't done it since. That may have been the cure.

I believe the 4L65e in these already have a corvette servo in them. They also have an upgraded sun shell.

Right? I mean a 4 cylinder K can put out 6-800 hp pretty easy. But this thing is REALLY throwing down!!

It’s the atlas platform. It’s a gm barra

I miss the channel bro ! GOD BLESS AMERICA!!! 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸

It's a bbbbeast of a platform b. Look at the numbers here! Can't fake that kind of power.

Not just the atlas 6 but the 3700 as well

I saw some ford explorers had an inline 6 as well. Now are all these having a iron block if so how heavy?

Looks top notch! I love all the rust.

I was going to say the same thing.

8.8 out of s ranger

I marked your words.

There are more and more parts becoming available. Emtech makes parts, snake eater has injectors, artec offers the turbo manifold, then everything else is up to the builder. They can be ran on megasquirt or maxxecu as well as other stand alones.

Nivlac57 here on yt has boosted em alot

Oh heck yes they are fast! 200 hp at 4500 lbs. That's a combo dude! I imagine yours had a CAI that added 250hp though.

you have any videos!? would love to see how that works out. i have an idea to convert this to manual and retain 4wd but its way more unconventional...

@@J-Whit I will be uploading videos on it mine is an Envoy need the 4wd actuator delete kit thats used on the Rainier and Saab 9-7x I bought a Hummer H3 clutch pedal w/ bracket I'm gonna work up to fit it in the car

The car we are swapping an atlas into will have a standalone. The goal of this was to show it could be done. People have tuned the stock p12 with boosted applications. No one had really done the e67 despite it being the same ecu has corvettes, ctsv, etc. Now the bugs are sorted it runs great.

It’s a shame they gave up on them. While they’re not as stout at some other straight 6’s they’re still pretty good and have potential. Stuff like the Barra doesn’t make a ton of power stock either and needs the aftermarket support for the big numbers. A straight 6 ends up so tall it’s hard to fit them in much besides trucks and SUVs. To stick one in a sports car you end up needing to lay it over at an angle so the hood isn’t tall. I think a big part of why people haven’t taken to them is because the LS exists. With that you have greater power potential for similar money and effort.

Don't think a straight 6 would fit in a 4th gen f body but anyway gm paired these engines with good ol garbage 4l60e

@@neilbrown82 They won't fit. Tell Cooper.

Perhaps a 6l80 would be even better, especially for highway driving ?

Have any information to back that up ? The intake flows close to 300 CFM stock and 350 CFM , those are really good numbers for an engine that was destined to be in a family hauler.

Its a completely stock long block lol. Calvin has taken a stock sealed long block to over 600whp and completed a drag and drive event on it.

It's a great platform. Not much aftermarket support just yet but Fingers crossed.

yes it was. at the track this set up was 202 F on the big end. but after the a2w it was 61 degrees.
