SEMA 2018 LIVE Chevrolet Booth Tour - part Two

All right, let's try this again

YouTube cut us out before last time, so we're going to continue on where we left off before here at the Blazer

Like I said before, this thing looks a heck of a lot nicer than it did before

Or then you would think it would look a little bit more clean

Just a nice looking vehicle. All right, let's keep moving on. Here's y'all, 1978 Silberato custom

custom concept it has a six-liter engine in it of course this is a crate

engine just massive what a nice little truck here thanks for coming back people

we're here again if the YouTube app crashes again just back out and I will be

starting another live stream every time my stupid YouTube crashes hopefully won't happen again here is a 100th anniversary concept

pick up it has all of the cues that the production 100th anniversary truck had

but it's just an older one what a beautiful beautiful engine we have a zZ6

crate engine So this is the 1967 short box concept

It has 420 horsepower, 408 pound feet of torque through the ZZ6, turn key crate engine

These are literally engines that are commission, admission compliant, you buy them, you plug them in, they come with all the wiring, you turn the key, they run your concept, your little project car has been

Here is from the Ron Hall Performance Racing School. or Chad Hall

Not my bad Got a HD here pulling This Colorado ZR2 Chad Hall

Race truck Obviously not available for sale But it has a lot

of performance Pieces that you'll be able to get soon Here's the tow shop

Here's the tow truck. And over here we have a Colorado ZR2 bison, which by the way, I'm going to be going to talk to AEV later today

Learn a little bit more about the bison. What makes it special? This obviously is 100% production

You can buy this at your dealer and all of these lights, including all the Baja design

lights you can get and put them on your truck. All right, while we walk back over this way

does some more truck stuff. Let's take a look at the E-Copo Camaro

This is a 100% electric drag racing car. They've taken the Copo concept and electrified it

with an 800. bolt motor. Obviously 100% concept. But sometimes GM has a history of making these

things reality after a few years. So keep your fingers crossed if you want

something like this. Electric drag racing may be in our future. Here we've got

another Colorado ZR2. Fumping out some of the decal stuff on the side. We've got

the Baja design lights on the front again. It's like they're going to put some wood mounts for these things

which is pretty sweet. We'll look into that and get back to you guys soon

I saw some mounts on the 2019s now. When we put our Baja ditch lights on our 2011

the mounting solution was awful. We had to cut some trim pieces

It was just an overall mess and just not very easy to get in. These things look like there's no cutting at all

which would be so much more comfortable when going to put them in

Let's see. So we'll get back to everybody and let you know what we find out about those ditchlight mounts

Give ourselves a nice 360 of the booth here. I got a request to see that 67 C10 in the 3M booth by Chip Fuse

I will definitely go and try to check that out. I'm seeing if it's close by to me here

But I will go look at that after I'm done with the live stream, I promise

All right, let's see, what would we not take in a look at here yet

There's a lot of Camaro's, very big Camaro year, they're trying to really push the new design

on these things. Some more truck concepts, obviously they're really pushing the roll bars, the functionality

the wheels. This is an RST, but it has their two-inch lift to make it like a trail boss, so it just goes

show you you don't have to get the trail boss if you want to give a two-inch lift

You can put that two-inch lift on any 2019 Silvarado you believe

Now this was an interesting concept I saw before I went online. This is another RST, but it has some really, really cool carbon fiber accents and

stripes on it. I thought this graphic kit in the front was one of the more tasteful graphic kits

I've seen for the 2019, especially the way it wraps around the air dam

There's a fake carbon fiber grill, which until you get up really close looks pretty good

but you can tell it's not real. Have the blacked out bow tie

And then some carbon, it looks like maybe real carbon

All right, we got some requests for some engines, so we'll take a detour and walk over to the engine spot of the booth

So normally this is the same booth that Chevy's had for the entire ten years that I've been coming to Seema

It's always had this layout. They put their production vehicles here in the front for people the more concept stuff in the back

And then over here on the side is where all the crate engines live and it's pretty awesome

Are you guys happy

Let's take a look at these things. This is pretty cool. So one of the things that Chevy does that a lot of people don't necessarily know is the engines that they sell in their performance cards, you can go and

buy them, a lot of them. That's turnkey crate engines. So what does turnkey mean

Well, usually, turnkey means that it comes with all the computers, the wiring harnesses

Everything you'd need to get that engine to run and be emissions compliant

And yes, you can still get a 427 crate engine. They don't have any prices for this stuff

You can guarantee it's pretty steep. But as you also can see, there is a wide range of stuff from just the normal classic engine displacements

Just the really classic. A CT 400, CT350, and a CT525

So we'll go back here. The 350s, as you might guess, 350 horsepower

It's a small block. Got another small block here. The CT 400 is 400 to horsepower, 404 to be exact

And then if you want to step up, we got the CT 525, which is 533

So this is an LS series small block engine that you can get right out of the crane

Here is another LS series engine. This is a DR 525, which is 525 horsepower

You can get a, it looks like two different oil pans, muscle car oil pan and F car oil pan

So if you want to replace your F-body, fourth-gen F-body engine, here's what you want

Now let's get over to some blown engines. We've got the Copo 350 supercharged at 580 horsepower

This is a race engine. You buy this if you going to be racing your copo And then we also have the Copo 302

Now let's keep moving to try to find those other engines. You got transmissions, camshafts

all the different transmissions here that you may want. From a normal, six-speed manual, right up to their brand new 8-speed

you can get it all. Here is the LSX crate engine, the 454

It's 627 horsepower. That's excellent. Yep. I found that

Here's an LSX7 or 376 B15

I don't know where they get these numbers, these names. I mean, I understand some of the history behind them, but... B15

All right, anyways, 473 horsepower, basis of the LSX. And then we got another LSX

This one's a B8. This particular engine makes 476 horse. Wow, so we got a couple more engines to look here

Seems as we go along they get more advanced, more new, newer stuff

Here is an L96. 360 horsepower. L.S7

5505 horsepower and a crate engine. We've got some other LSA, E-Rods, supercharged system

Again, when they, uh, this particular engine is the CTSVs 622 liter, 566 horsepower

It's a crate engine. But it's also a California Airboard Certified Crade Engine

So you can get a supercharged carb-compliant engine in the E-Rod LSA

That is incredible. 466 horsepower, you can just drop right into whatever you want

And here's LS3. Same kind of concept. A little bit less horsepower, but you know, carb-compliant

put it in anything and then an LT1 e-rod system same concept just different

and then so GM also has this thing called connect and cruise create power

trans systems and what that details is they give you everything including the

transmission and so it all works together you get the computers you get the wiring

you get the engine, you get the transmission. Even right down to the pedal, you even get the throttle pedal

And it all plugs in, no matter where you want to put it, what gear, what type of vehicle, you

can put it in, plug it in, it's going to work, it's going to run, it's going to be emissions

compliant, and there's nothing else to ask for. Got some accessory drive

Got some accessory drive belts, normal stuff. And here's the LT5 crate engine

755 wars power. Obviously the latest and greatest GM has to offer at the moment

but it's just that rate you go. So are they being used more so than the old motors is for

is for functionality as far as being able to drive 1,000 miles

air conditioning? Right. So the trucks are maybe 31 and 33 install tires

and you're doing the road most of the time. We were talking about the Connecting Cruise system

Here's just an idea of how you can apply that to any any old vehicle you want

They just have a basic chassis right here. And this thing looks like it could run. I mean, it's everything you need

Just give yourself a body, a chassis, a drives, and an exhaust

You're good to go. Okay, let's make our way back through the engine display

We'll take one final look here to close everything up at the Camaros they have up this year

Camaros are a big focus of this year's Cima show. As you may know Chevy redesigned the Camaro for 2019 The front end has gotten a lot of flack from a lot of people and so apparently there an emergency redesign of some sort or another but anyways they are

really pushing Camaros this year Camaros and trucks that's their bread and butter

things are getting pretty busy here at the show it's only probably just a little

bit before ten by now This year's show, I've been asking a lot of vendors how the show is going for them

And although it seems to be more people here and more exhibitors and more activity

every exhibitor I've talked to has told me the show is slower this year

Take that what you will. I don't know what that means. It looks busier to me

And we have a bolt cargo concept. Yeah, that's interesting. Here's the real copo Camaro with the actual gas engine in it

427, 50th anniversary. You know, you don't even have to like Camaros or Chevys

to understand just how badass of a vehicle this thing is. All right. I don't know what this color is called. We'll find out in a second

It's yellow with a very slight green tinge. I don't know how well it's transferring to

through YouTube, but it like glows in a way. So this is the commercial

Mero shock concept. I guess the paint color is a death man

A lot of these performance accessories that you can get, a lot of blacked out center caps

blacked out trim pieces. As you can see, they change that front end on that thing

It no longer has the blacked out crossbar. That does lead some creeped out crossbar

to that the thing will get a little bit of a redo before it goes and hits the market

This looks like another drag concept of some sort. Again, the front end is painted out and

the bow tie is in the grill, not the crossbar anymore, unlike the first pictures

Oh, it's in garage. This is the drag race car concept

Again, just a lot more of the performance pieces that you can get

One of the things that Chevy loves to do is bring back classics like you've seen and put modern power trains in them

And this is no... So this actually is the original 1969 Copeland Copeland

69 Copo from that. 69, Z01. Don't get to see this

What's that? Not a ZL1. I understand. Yeah. It says right there, ZL1 Copo, sorry

I think it should have one like that, one field off. Getting schooled here

Is it. Is it. That's a big. That's just a big. It's stuck out with the paper

I'll show you guys Z-L-1-Copo Camaro. Yeah, right now you get a green

That's just another part of SEMA is old guys walking around, thinking that they know everything

The joy of Sema. All right here. Anybody else have any more requests before we get the heck out of here and on with our day

This absolutely. Well you know what guys, hey, thank you so much for spending your time with me while I walked around the Chevy booth today
