Strapping A Supercharger On The Dakota RT's Stock 5.9L - Trucks! S3, E7

[@justino8935]

Man. What glorious days in the era when this video was made.

[@dventureswithAndrew]

Owned my deep amethyst 99' R/T RC for 20 years now ! My HS hotrod . Great truck ! I was I was probably 15 at the time of this video . Great to watch again!

[@TheCoopMan]

Always fun to see pre-production versions of vehicles I know. You can see what the original designers were going for. And where the pencil pushers decided cuts had to be made. (No 4 wheel independent suspension, all metal parts you see on exterior end up being plastic, that cool wrap over windshield gets ditched, headers swapped for manifolds, custom cut tires changed for off the shelf bfgs, interior ends being completely toned down) At the end of the day, a completely one of a kind design was binned for a body swapped 3/4 ton suburban.

I put A 440/727 in my 99 Dakota ! It takes care of them fords without even breathing hard !

[@whatthe363]

Im so thankful for this series. The Dakota build specifically. These guys and hair dus seal the deal.

[@deathbusa]

It’s a truck it’s all about torque and it still has good tq even by today’s standard and it handles like a sports car

[@Zaucey]

@Sativa I have a 99 std cab rt. It’s factory height with just bolt ons. Death busa is sort of correct on the handling… it DOES NOT feel like you’re driving a truck most of the time. Very minimal body roll. Steering is very tight, sort of heavy and ratio is very quick. Dodge did a damn good job for once. I wouldn’t say it handles like a sports car but it will surprise you… It’s very easy to forget you’re driving a truck

[@thomastrumigneault8918]

Rts arent ever used as trucks unless they slangin parts for some like harry

[@deathbusa]

Well they out performed the Mustang on lateral g’s when they came out and I can fit stuff in the bed that won’t fit in a car they did have a problem when people would try to tow with them they could pull a lot more weight than the truck could control due to not having the weight to stop it

[@jimmyc6686]

I bought a '00 std cab in 2002. I must of burned at least 10 sets of tires. Fun little truck. Transmission was shot when I sold it a few years ago

[@dangoldbach6570]

22 years later and I still can't afford one.

[@ΒΞΔΝ]

They went from $4.5k to $15.5k in one year when that 20 rolled around. I have a 2002 R/T single cab with 31k miles on it. I think they cost $18k brand new.

[@davecaresforyou7606]

Wow that’s crazy money

[@mopar-jp4hq]

I just purchased my rt for 1200 bucks

[@mopar-jp4hq]

2000 single cab I just gotta fix a couple things on it does hell of a burnout

[@noduh736]

It's funny to see the h2 pretty production

[@cesarmartinez3582]

Great job .one of the best in this world

[@-ouv]

Wow look how young SD is!!!

[@5.9_pookie]

Dude this is sick definitely like these Dakota’s but Ram 1500 are better to me

[@whatthe363]

That hummer looks wild

[@GenZBuilds2]

Man have wheels came a long way..

[@SGTJDerek]

I know it's been a while and I'm pretty sure it's been done but I can't help but see a Modern Interpretation of The Lil Red Express. For me I'd need a "King Cab" or "Crew Cab". Wouldn't even need to start with an R/T.

[@juanpagan3295]

Where i can buy a supercharge kit like that.? I got a Dakota 5.9lts R/T too…

[@alexanderforsgren1533]

Torqstorm is the best

[@BigMan7o0]

I need to get my truck repainted, that's the same color as mine and it looks so much better than mine xD

[@Pendaws]

WOW, the VERY first to view this :) Great Show.

[@richardclary6267]

Sad about Stacy getting all those charges and being on the FBI's Most Wanted list for that "sweet gig" as a Mall Of America Santa Claus...

[@jamespittman7136]

Definitely recommend a aftermarket intake hat when running boost

[@timc8551]

It sucks that powerdyne didn't fair well in the future😅

[@sactownmopar]

I wonder if they ever upgraded the brakes? the brakes have been the worse thing about the r/t, I got all the parts together to put dual piston 12" 2004 brakes on the front now.

[@Brock_Landers]

The interior of that H2 is fugly. I'm REALLY hoping to see the dyno run of the truck, but chances are I'll miss it because of the 150+ notifications every day.

[@stanferguson4653]

Did y'all ever get the supercharger on the RT?

[@magnumcipher4971]

A DuraMax H2!? 🤣🤣🤣

[@earlmason3168]

You two need to invest in a groove ring

[@bryancoats5328]

I’d love to do to a Durango what they did to that Dakota

[@timbuzick8778]

title would make more sense for a Ford lightning

[@phillipshirley89]

Telling people to cut there coil springs They ain't that expensive

[@s0uthp4w68]

Hummer H2?! how old is this episode and why is it just now going up on KZbin??

[@LukeEdward]

As it is with every episode, the last 15 seconds, in the credits, show you the year. So, you’d see its 20(!) years old - 2001. 21:04

[@Icutmetal]

Be resourceful- look at the title.

[@americanpatriot2.06]

Trucks! started back in the late 90's and it was just one of MULTIPLE series Powerblock had. Eventually Powerblock became PowerNation (which also has a KZbin channel that post their shows) which continues to make multiple weekly shows to this very day. They've been slowly converting their OLD shows to digital so they can add them to digital and streaming platforms. Stacey David only did a few years before doing his own shows and currently has a youtube channel as well.

[@HorseJizzTim]

08:09 how many takes did they do?

[@joeyoung3319]

*.. injectors are not part of the kit, THEY'LL cost a LITTLE extra.." ..ROFLMAO It's very telling you don't say HOW MUCH extra.

[@Carvania]

Duramax h2 lol... if only

[@greatlakeshotrodglh5341]

Lots of money to go slow.

[@grcyvtcffuubucfuv]

God h2 were ugly

[@bmstylee]

Basically a Suburban in a fat suit.

[@americanpatriot2.06]

H3 wasn't much better.

[@Brock_Landers]

Just under 200 HP at the wheels is impressive? My stock Acura TL makes that...since when is under 200 WHP impressive for a 5.9L V8?

[@TheCoopMan]

Rated at 250 at the flywheel. Was pretty standard power. For late 90s-00s in trucks.

[@adriansneed7220]

Lmao especially for a V8 compared to a 4 or 6 cylinder Acura that ain't shit like they make close to 3 either way so that's sad for a V8 vs the smaller engines and it's the biggest motor made in that truck how pitiful

[@199jl]

That was a very different time... the mid 70's to late 90's horsepower for all vehicles in North America was way down.... those years were a valley that youngsters..... those under 30 most likely have no knowledge of

[@Vincent-ke5zn]

The original Hummer had a diesel engine, the H2 is a copy

I'm too old school to lower a truck, if you want to go lower get a car
