The time has come to finally reveal the engine and transmission that will propel Zac’s OBS 2 door Tahoe into single digit 1/4 mile times. That engine is a Texas Speed built, FORD GODZILLA motor. But this is no ordinary Godzilla 7.3. The crew at Texas Speed and Performance have upgraded the entire rotating assembly and valvetrain, ported the heads, and topped it off with one of their Titan Intake manifolds. Handling shifting duties is a Gearstar Transmissions 4L85e Level 4 transmission, backed by an NP208 transfer case which was also modified by GearStar.

Zac's builds are always so rowdy

[@esxpr3mo378]

That’s because Zac knows wassup he ain’t wit no bullshit lol

Zac’s builds have a message to them. It says “trust me guys I have big pp”

When Zac said it wasn't an LS motor I was thinking coyote motor or the Godzilla motor. This Chevy is gonna be a drag strip beast.

[@j0sh707]

Cleetus had a lot of luck with the Godzilla platform.

[@whistlinduramax7723]

P.S blew up twice already, Nothing to do with the engine why its making good passes, all on the car setup! He finally figured out how to build the suspension, and fox bodies have decent weight on the rear wheels.

@@whistlinduramax7723 still better and faster than an LS

[@NXT_LVL]

@@whistlinduramax7723 Both the giveaway F150 and his Peanut butter/Mayo wrapped one (except the doughnuts in 4wd duh moment) have done well. The GT500 engine in Neighbor lasted forever.

[@naufalkusumah2192]

@@whistlinduramax7723 Cleetus tried to squeeze 1200hp out of stock motor, of course it blew up, and he had to deal with boost creep also. I mean if you take a stock LS it wont take more than 800hp before it throws rods on the side of the block

[@mikes2876]

Still needs head studs beyond 20lbs of boost

I think this is the first time I’ve seen scotto act like a true boss.

[@Matthew-by6vl]

Woah... to be honest...I never suspected a Godzilla engine. I was totally expecting a LS or LT and am pleasantly surprised. Looking forward to seeing end product!

[@FranksGarageOfficial]

Zac needs a museum for all these masterpieces he builds

[@LS_Rooster]

Im so stoked for this! I love making them big boats rip.

[@Max23653]

Cleetus made 800 on the stock motor with an awful turbo kit slapped together this one with all the good shot in it should make WELL over 1000 without a sweat

[@marshalldcarpenter]

Also insisted on keeping the factory intake. Amazed that he's pushing that engine with a significant amount of boost on a plastic intake manifold.

Sees Beto and ondagas smoking people then builds his own. Got me thinking bout a 5.0 4x4 truck too

[@johnmurphy7108]

I think normally that motor would disappoint, but that's not a Ford motor anymore. It's a Texas speed motor, I dont think zac will have any issues :)

[@christopherwetmore845]

This channel should be renamed “Jameson builds” because I swear he is building every car on this channel

A Texas Speed 7.3. Fascinating.

Texas speed was one of the first to get their hands on a 7.3 and really mess with it. It’s definitely gonna be a bright future for that power plant

This thing is gonna rip. That Godzilla looks right at home in the bay

[@qers]

I read Godzilla in the title and was very surprised, a VR38DETT build in a Tahoe? This makes a lot more sense.

[@trashypantsyota]

Hell yea, killer engines no matter what it's in. Cleetus has one in mcflurry and it flat rips. Big boost will make it work. The Godzilla is very close to a larger ls, the lifters are straight from the ls platform.

4.53 spacing. Ford small block was 4.38 Big block was 4.9 Smack dab in the middle. Old SB hemi was 4.56 SB Chevy/LS 4.4
