1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS LS6 454 Convertible Muscle Car Of The Week Video #44

1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS LS6 454 Convertible Muscle Car Of The Week Video #44
If you were to go buy a brand-new 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS, what options would you choose? This week, our featured Muscle Car is a super-clean 1970 Chevelle SS 454 with the 450 HP LS6 V8 backed by a Muncie M22 4-speed transmission. Couple that with a power convertible top, and you've got an awesome ride capable of burning through the first 3 gears while wind-blowing your hair at the same time. There are multiple LS6 Chevelles in the Brothers Collection, but this one is perhaps the most sinister.

The 70 Chevelle SS is still a beautiful car. The lines are timeless. Fifty years later I never get tired of looking at them. It's my favorite of all time.

[@sluttyboy69]

Mine to even tho gto skylark oldsmobile all have cars that almost look identical to it lol

[@tmtheasphaltgambler3709]

Interesting thing is the advertised HP and Torque rating was well below the factory redline of 6500. That rating was at @5600. All you had to do was add large primary tube headers, increase the jet sizes by 4 in front, 2 in rear, add @5 degrees in initial timing and that thing became a MONSTER!

[@nathanbalog7027]

Nice observation. Thanks

[@MuscleCarOfTheWeek]

For sure! It was a trick also used by the L88 Corvettes.

[@mikescaffo4850]

Wow what a car what a time to be alive I miss the old days

[@markurbancowboy]

Awesome car, but I gotta go with the hardtop version. I like how you guys really drive the cars and not just talk about them. Cool!

[@wollecom]

The 1970 454 LS-6 450 HP engine used a Holley 800 CFM spread bore carburetor specifically for this engine. Another engine option was the LS5 365 HP which used the Rochester Q-jet 750 cfm unit, other engine options were the L34-396-402 350 HP, Q-jet carb, L78-396-402 375 HP, & the L89 were also Holley Carb however this final option used Aluminum heads. I know since I owned a few of these new in there day way back then. They were some of the best! The customer had allot of options to choice from. Something you don't see any more.

[@jcglos]

The LS6 454 had a Holly Carb Kevin.

[@JakeTheMuss10454]

beautiful ride!!

[@johnjacobjingleheimerschmi3857]

And the Tuxedo Black is Perfect for this Beauty. Bucket seat's would have been nice but bench seats are great for your gal to slide up next to you.

[@davidlane9138]

Slide up next to you and scream "slow down"🤣

[@jeffcathline5431]

I got a ride in one when I was 22 it had a turbo 400 in it.But with 4 200 lbs guys it would smoke the tires at 30 mph by just matting the pedal

[@enerrivers4392]

I remember them, awesome. BIG BLOCKS Naturally aspirated. Imagine with today's technology. 👑

[@1vildon679]

He also slipped on saying smog was for California cars when in fact all LS6 cars had the smog system along with L78 cars.

[@Oneida100]

I think you slipped on the rim size too but, it's all good; love the series.

[@1vildon679]

15x7 should be 14x7

[@johnniemoore2228]

Great car, I do believe that would be a Holley, not a quad carburetor..

[@smacwhinnie]

70 had 14 in wheels

[@hnkfsh81]

Time for some new rings in that beast of an engine.

[@gt4th]

So was the Holley carb. an option for the Ls6? This one you said was a quadrajet but on another Ls6 cars you have featured you said holley 850. They say they Holley performs better but for me I'll take the intake howl of a quad. any day, even if I had to loose some h.p. Keep up the good work. I love your channel!

[@Sherman62]

No, video shows a dual feed Holley, not Quadrajet. No one is perfect.

[@labtide]

Bench seats in a SS just don't do it for me. I had a 70 SS 396.

[@chadkimmel8957]

Back in 83 my brother had a red 70 SS396 402 4 speed. Pretty bad ass car for an 18 year old. Too bad I was 3 at the time. I remember being in it once. I'm thinkin his had buckets.

[@cuzz63]

I had a 72 SS 454 and it had a bench seat.

[@Sherman62]

Strato buckets were really comfortable.

[@marksimpson100]

If Charlie owned it I would be checking out the back seat

[@jessendawg8152]

i wanna see this bad boy vs that 70 something hemi plum crazy Challenger y'all got

[@AlejandroP1980s]

Both overrated why not a super rare 1971 euroshelby

[@tcswag801]

Why all the haters ? Like any of you fools could could even pay the title transfer . depending on miles this cars gotta be pushing 100k ? $

[@jamesjoslin7586]

Well north of that.

[@superapple4ever]

I wouldn't mention the Charlie Sheen ownership thing, it might make it go down in value...

[@TheFokker03]

one cool,fully loaded motor.love it,Kevin,keep 'em coming.

[@Trebor-gw8lt]

The Corvette low rise intake never made any sense in the Chevelle. The hi rise L72/L88 intake would’ve fit just fine and added 10-15hp over the terrible low riser.

[@ronnorris2934]

Excellent

[@johndymowski6844]

I had the same except it was a 1971 LS6 aluminum head job. Just a change of pistons and to the ZL1 cam and I had the LS7. A friend had the Monty 1971 LS6 w/th400 dk green...

[@brgable]

They didn’t put the LS6 in a chevelle in 71.

[@gt4th]

P.s. I would still like to see p.o.v. Shot from inside the car! Heck I'd get ya a gopro for that!

[@Sherman62]

Man, that car sounds neutered for a 4.10 geared, large port, solid lifter, screamin big block. Sounds like an Olds 98.

[@nathanbalog7027]

I concor. The hard top is tightest

[@stephaniekong9531]

Rochester carb? It came with a Holley carb.

[@MrTheHillfolk]

Stephanie Kong did it smell like coke booze and hookers since Charlie sheen owned it briefly?

[@cincyspin178]

@Davis Dean Still pushing that rumor? people.com/tv/corey-haim-mother-names-his-alleged-abuser/

[@stretch54]

It's hard to believe dual exhaust was an option with the LS-6. I'm not sure if that's right.

[@mrdiplomat9018]

No 👎🏼

[@bobdc13]

I think the L S-6 had a Holley carb not the Q-Jet..

[@mynameis9057]

a bench seat? ! who orders a bench in a beast like that?it ain't a freakin taxi! lol! I just don't get it. nice ride through i reckon. ☆☆☆

[@smacwhinnie]

SS package should have included buckets and floor shifter

[@blainemonson3414]

Who lets you lite em up in a car worth that much??

[@charlieb308]

I saw a bone stock LS6 engine on dyno it was less than 450hp wuth everything hooked up, so all that nonsense babble about "these were under rated from factory" is bullshit

[@brgable]

And I’ve seen several make more than 450 with everything hooked up on a Dyno.

[@sluttyboy69]

This is the rarest chevelle there is

[@sluttyboy69]

Theres a 72 chevy chevelle ss convertible for sell near me immaculate condition i wish i had the 68k right now
