You're Australian?

jeremy you are getting a lot more natural on camera! great video. get another shout out from cleetus so we can start making you some money from these videos.

[@sargspudguts7034]

In Australia they like to put the chev badges on there Holden's. You should do the opposite and put Holden badges on it, just for shits and giggles.

[@ike8236]

Only bogan peanuts put chev badges on, and he should put Holden badges on because it is a Holden!!!

[@jeremygyles3492]

Yea they do the same in New Zealand and it ruins the car.

Do a wrap on uncle sam with a American flag and "we want you" uncle sam image on the hood then a "these colors dont run" lettering on the back bumper!

[@derrynf565]

Ya know uncle sam was made in australia🤣

[@thewookiee5174]

Derryn F Jeremy needs to put some Holden badges on it. Just that mod alone will take 1 sec off the elapsed times.

[@itsme675t7]

Dope idea!

[@nordic5490]

aj, this is an Australian car, so if you think flags are a good idea, use an Australian flag. Btw, why would you call an Australian car Uncle Sam ?? nuts.

[@aj-fb5yi]

Nor Dic so its based off of a Australian model but it still has the caprice name and a ls powerplant owned by a AMERICAN in the usa and carries the name uncle sam so ide say a american flag and a uncle sam picture suits it pretty well.

[@Major-Kong]

Here in Australia we just throw out the side mounted air filters and go over the radiator also you would be surprised how much power we force down those driveshafts, just keep an eye on the couplings. Also, the caprice in this country is the top of the line in the standard Holdens, they come pretty much decked out with all the electronic goodies. The V8's here also come with quad outlets but the same Peashooter exhaust from the cats to the Diff, we yank them and go 2 3/4 or 3 inch twins but still exiting through quad tips.

[@bigworm84]

I got same kit from BTR for mine, went with their stage 2 NA cam to go with that. I also did 2010 camaro headers needed little beating around the oil cooler and passenger side tranny oil lines. Pontiac g8 exhaust is bolt in just need the tips extended. And yes very happy with BTR very detailed kit.

[@EwainW]

You know it's funny, when I look at things and want to take them apart (computers, cars, lamps, guitars, phones, furniture, TVs... etc) to fettle, see if I can make them better, see how they work, if I can fix them, just to check an idea out, how it will work and what (if any) marginal gains it'll make, or just to make it look different, my family and friends think I'm mad. When I look at you geeking out over building a cold air intake from bits and pieces laying around, I'm right there, totally getting you Jeremy. Amen to us fettlers!

[@martinrodger9565]

I’m almost over the previous percentage thing.... haha. Keep up the great work and thank you for producing entertaining and educating content. I remember when tuning was smoke and mirrors only to the general public - we the public are lucky to have people like you.

[@cram6891]

Been waiting all day for this! So excited to watch the build of Uncle Sam!

[@RobertD_83]

Hot damn almost 100k subs with the channel only being really active the last couple months! That's awesome and well deserved! We could all learn a thing or 2 about the tuning/building process from the mindset of the wizard. Keep pumping out great content and this channel will blow up faster than Leroy runs the quarter!

[@uwharriebigfoothunter]

I really enjoy these build videos! I watched all the Neighbor vidz and I look forward to watching all of these. I really like these Caprice! I'm excited to see more!

[@greaservictor491]

G8 headers would have worked perfectly.

[@Fasterproms1]

Not so sure because of the oil cooler. But Camaro headers should be here any day....

[@runespaze]

Could you fit a G8 front end on a PPV Caprice? Seeing as they’re mostly the same

[@rheser]

@@runespaze yeah fits no problem, Holden Statesman & HSV Caprice & Grange were the same as SS sedan Ute & Wagon as they just had a longer wheelbase.

[@emergencyfleetservice]

Kooks Caprice headers fit perfectly. Why not just use what's made it?

[@Brock_Landers]

This build is going to be awesome brother. This channel has come out strong for sure. Keep up the good work brother! I seriously can't wait to see the upcoming modifications for this beast!

[@TheSteve1175]

Sweet content, this is gonna be a wonderful ride. Two things I would love to know. 1. What did your wife think of the hipo mods, maybe a ride along with her driving and showing what she likes or not. 2. Do the boys know what you're doing, cause people are already mentioning it on their channel. I'm really looking forward to this build.. 😊

[@toddfoxx9945]

Thanks the info, Im really liking this build, hoping to get a Caprice of my own soon!!

This is why most car restoration workers must do 2007 to 2017 Chevy Caprice PPVs in the best possible restoration conditions even with Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptors. This is why they are great even in 2024 and future movies and television.

[@Threeeees]

Riding them coattails! Gotta say I'm actually looking forward to a head to head against Neighbor.

"she was a northern car, so LOTS of rust...". I feel that. the body work on my Truck went from a 5k job to a 12k job. just uncovering more and more problems as the tear the truck down more and more. It's rough for old vehicles up here.

[@MRShifty24211]

God bless you too Jeremy love your videos

[@Dan-su1zq]

Shifty 7 god bless you brotha

[@Oldsoldiersays]

the reason you have more carbon than the mileage shows is because as a cop car it has thousands and thousands of engine hours idling, probably 250-300k miles worth of the engine running.

[@DieselAddict-vs9fc]

Yep. I think it's 25 miles, per hour it idles

[@Fasterproms1]

Indeed. Still gonna send it.

[@Oldsoldiersays]

no doubt, at least you know the rings are set and sealed and self gapped lol

[@1216jimmyz]

Exactly...cop cars are either sitting at idle for hours on end...or being red lined non stop...haha..

Big single turbo !!!!! Like 80mm

[@dustinrenner7553]

Ls9 head gaskets, head studs. Hmm. Sounds like its going turbo

[@steverebuilds152]

im guessing since you tune cars that you got a nice cam for low end torque with other parts that helps torque keep increasing past rpm limit of the cam.

[@Swerval]

Jeremy, have you looked into over the radiator intakes and mafless tubes for these? It's basically the staple of aussie LS commo mods

[@davidwindsor2866]

VMP supercharger might go well on the uncle Sam. To make some power.😉👍👍👍

[@chubbysumo2230]

the OBD2 port damage is actually explainable. If this was a government service vehicle or a cop car, they splice in a tracking device that will monitor and record the car's inputs, as well as a few other things. The upfitters usually just cut them off, and splice into whats left, and then when they get prep'd for resale, someone just goes and rips the whole thing out, which usually means the cluster quits working, and it blows a bunch of fuses.

[@Fasterproms1]

Ok well that explains it. And you are right on the cluster didn’t work.

[@drewschmidt6314]

Great job on porkapotamus. It looks like it came from factory that way.

[@Bigofft]

What's involved in removing the black banana intake cover couple bolts? Or you gotta remove fuel rail etc?

[@ChristopherBell]

100% someone makes a laptop or tablet mount for that.

[@melindamichael2144]

Ammusing how youve called an australian car uncle sam lol should call it uncle bruce

[@nordic5490]

Agreed. These yanks are crazy calling an Ozzie car uncle sam. Maybe that is some ones mad uncle.

[@chetwood164]

ausies got the car on the fifth gen, prior to that american.

[@nordic5490]

Otto, do some basic home work mate. The Holden Statesman Caprice was made in Elizabeth, South Australia, then exported to the USA en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holden_Caprice

Looking forward to the updates.

[@mmcnew1]

Your baseline 1/4 mile is 13.7sec @ 102mph. I have this exact same car with 119,000 on it. Ran it at PIR last weekend. I think I could shave off a couple tenths with practice. Green Performance drop in airfilter and Solo Performance axle back exhaust are the only mods... so far. It’s big. It weighs a little over 4,300 lbs. on a scale with me in it. But I love the car. Can hardly wait to watch this build unfold. Check out newcaprice.com if you want because I think some of those guys have already been down the paddle shifter install etc...

[@eavesstreet6307]

First time watching! First time seeing ya watching Leroy I was like this guy is a party pooper. Lol but I like watching you're videos just as much. I didnt know the new caprice even came with V8s. I want one now!

[@electronbeing5473]

wow you're learning a lot

[@TheSteve1175]

[@703fishing3]

Uncle Sam vs Neighbor needs to happen, the battle of the retired cop cars.

[@mattu1914]

Holden vs Ford 👍

[@rustedratchetgarage6788]

Huh not much comparisons unless you dropped a ctsv motor in the caprice neighbor has a gt500 driveline this thing is still rocking the original shortblock id say this one wins for that reason alone

[@703fishing3]

Well Jeremy's goal is to run 9s in this thing and neighbor currently does that. That's why I think its meant to happen.

[@rustedratchetgarage6788]

Fishing With Joseph yea but neighbor is about a close to a cop car as my pickup is at least this one has the original engine from a cop car not a swapped in factory built performance engine it has a engine that was on its last leg and got brought back from the dead that really put in work and survived not a low mileage midlife crisis advertisement that got busted up at cars n coffee i say this caprice wins already just for that but don't get me wrong Cleetus is awesome just comparing this to neighbor is apples and oranges

[@chris91nelson]

Congratulations on 100k now go make some power!

[@bradt9244]

Can you test if adding a gallon of octane booster makes more power ?

[@rusty2029]

I have been looking for a PPV on craigslist but they are hard to find in central Florida. I want one! Just today I saw one in full Holden Statesman livery.

[@jrgt628]

Most PPV have the shifter on the column... Did you do that modification or did it come that way? The reason for that is gun belts can cause a problem...

[@mooremaceo]

So, the intake manifold, did you just remove the sound dampener? Or did you have to replace the whole thing with a different one? I’ve been wondering ever since I found out there was a sound dampener! And was it a hard job. I’ve swapped them on old cars, but never done a new one.

[@getlikeme149]

Hey I was wondering if you could send a list of what you got for the car in just this video look at doing the same set up

[@arifeenaushad9287]
