Trailblazer SS conversion - Sinister SS

Converted a LT trailblazer into an SS , build time 1 1/2 months . more parts on way ! stroker block , procharger , etc .

[@NYRM1974]

I like the hood scoup well done.

[@countryguitar1989]

I wonder why a lot of people are asking why you didnt just buy a tbss. I guess they dont understand the passion in creating a rig like that. Mad mad props man.

[@lazyesgarage]

All these people saying it isn't a "True SS" well neither is your Civic with a fart cannon that your mechanic put on it. Or your SS with non SS exhaust or wheels.

[@menaceiisociety9598]

I might woulda been cheaper to buy one but its not about that ! Built Not Bought! Great job. Alot of craftsmanship, money, time,hard work &dedication. #inspiration

[@vflrockytop]

The style sure as changed in the past 10 years. That was a sweet build back in its day

[@TheBTOshow]

those license plate setups front and rear are awesome.

[@chevyman5436]

Sweet! I saw this at the World Of Wheels in Minneapolis in Febuary, Very nice ride!

[@CHUUMPASS]

awesome transformation process, i can see the passion and the hard work you put into it, and the result justifies all the efforts, stunning! i like especially the eye-popping color combo and what you did to the hood. greetings from germany :)

[@sfrankz71]

I feel your pain. I built my own version of an SS. Spent more money than it would to just buy one as well. It's about the one off build. Internet tough guys and wanna be mechanics talk to much crap. I like it and would buy it from you if ever sell. Great job on it.

[@bishop5166]

I'm with Scott. the truck is a beast. good job on it. fuck all you haters who have no skills.

[@sterlingwitherspoon5709]

I know people don’t know how to turn a damn wrench

[@loucks428]

saw this at Carcraft 2010! sick ride man.. absolutely sick.

[@JamesBondSim9]

WOW.. That really nice, ive always wanted to put the 6.0 in mine and black it out. The Orange and black combo really makes it stand out from any other car out there. My favorite part was the hood, VERRRRRY cool design, never see another one like it. Great work man, very cool

[@NYRM1974]

Just one word brother beautiful

[@ryanraquino4747]

NYRM1974 masterpiece

[@wisdomandy9361]

When someone does a proper conversion with they're heart and sole it simply deserve's your respect. I'm tired of people complaining about everything in the car community. And you know what the fact is? 95% of the people complaining have nothing respectable themselves. Fact is that this conversion was done quite well and you got my respect. Looks awesome, post more videos!

[@mrgeo20]

that's got to be the most insane loking TB evr! I love it! it even has remote entry so the doors are completely clean!

[@SuperJmoney87]

This is badass looks like a lot of work but wen u doin something u love it's a pleasure

[@brandonpatterson4360]

Love love love the color and the attention to the little details just makes it amazing things like the trim around the exhaust, the inset front license plate and the airbrush work great truck I would much rather drive that than a stock tbss.

[@ttetomer]

great VIDEO,, great truck.. I have an 2005,, soon I will get an SS.. and great on doing it your-self..

[@david11946]

Your truck is an inspiration. Great build. I am looking to convert my straight 6 TB to a V8 and I was wondering if you needed to do any fab work to the frame or motor mounts to drop in the LS2? There's alot of disinformation and misinformation out there about the I6 and V8 Trailblazers having different frames. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks!

[@cpufreak101]

+david11946 i will say i do know one very popular thing people do is if they have an LS or an LT they do swap in a LS2 since they are really all the same vehicle, and they are all on a GMT360 chassis (the EXT's are on the GMT370, same thing just lenghened)

[@fbody4ever63]

Fantastic build! Im blown away!

[@shunmitchell1249]

I looked into doing this as well. First off the cross member which is what the engine connects to via motor mounts has to be cut with a plasma cutter, moved up a few inches and rewelded. It's cheaper to just buy a SS and do the upgrades you wanted as seen in the video

[@darrylsmijan9123]

One of my favourite builds ever 👍

[@tacusi542]

Probably has one of those kits where u tap the mirror and the door pops open. Seen one like that at waterfest 17 on a GTI and it was sick!! U tap the mirror and the door pops open and then u double tap one of them to open the gas cap which was behind the right tail light.

[@ricardoramirezccc7242]

Nice paint job love the orange color 👍 I hate wen painting always drop some paint clear or primer al over Jaja God job

[@gavinistheawesomest]

Fucking epic, bro. Some people will never understand sentimental value of particular vehicles. Glad to see you stick it out to the end. I want to do an SS swap on mine one day. It was my moms truck, so it’s not going anywhere.

[@903aaron903]

What an awesome job you all did! looks killer

[@jakelxxx12121212]

i really like how you did the doors

[@LinkinPark2135]

Thats a sweet ride man hey where did you get the front end at? Like the bumber and the center piece that runs through the headlights? Thanks

[@bigfootgarage2201]

what lowering springs did you use because im doing the same thing to my tbls and turning it into a tbss

[@Applefirebird]

What drop kit did you use for your trailblazer

[@bhimler]

WOW, Good work Looks like a toy, a bad ass toy!! A normal cat would buy an ss, paint it and call it a day. But you have connections and did it BETTER!! impressed

[@joisdaname]

the process looks cool

[@Twinturbospool]

That paint is sick man!

[@wagurleyIII]

This is a "ONE OFF" for sure. Nice custom conversion my friend.!!!!!!!!!!

[@Woodchips78]

I normally hate orange, but I like this color! Great job.

[@94camaroguy]

I love this truck I see it all the time by my house, I want that color!

[@herbienbrian2]

love the hood scoop, very reminiscent of the Stingray Corvette

[@45CHI]

its no different from building any other project, so why be negative about his Trailblazer Project Build

[@Beandiptheredneck]

Really nice build I'm a lift and boggers guy myself but I know people with lowered trucks and tuner cars, I appreciate anything someone works hard on, this is nicer than any SS I have seen so F**k the haters

[@818bass]

dude...nice work...i have an LS....but dont gots the money to do something like this...great job.

[@gjg50]

Dude... thats bad ass ... great work ... the color is outrageous ... lol love it ...

[@artisanaviation8926]

And for this, we thank you. That TB is killer!

[@95beretta]

Looks pretty badass man!!! My only question. Why did you shatter the old windshield when you removed it instead of re-using it? Or was it already broke?

[@BLACKLACDTS]

bad ass!! how much did the conversion cost? how much total do you have in the whole deal?(truck,motor,wheels,paint+bodywork,interior,labor)what did the motor come out of? why did you do this instead of just buying a trailblazer ss? im just curious because im thinking of buying a hot rod suv/truck(trailblazer ss,jeep srt8,magnum srt8,silverado ss,lightning,rt10 ram) but your makin me want to build sumthing! thanks for any info.

[@carlosrdz7468]

Good job and beautiful truck i like it

[@greenmoster2006]

Wouldn't be cheaper just to buy one?

[@cesarsanchez1315]

Green Moster lol 😂 true

[@sterlingwitherspoon5709]

No. It’s not about the money.

[@quintessentialbachelor395]

Its not what you can buy, its what you can build

[@M.Arbogast]

do you wax/buff flat paint like any regular paint job, i have a small recon buissness in rhode island and yet to have a flat color come to me. just curious love the truck to im in the process of getting an AWD ss ive got a harley supercharged but i like the TBSS a lil better

[@stevennicastro6993]

NO WAY that took 1.5 months but sick build a lot of body work i like the no door handles i wanna do this to mine post a video of it running and doing some burnouts

[@Link60822]

nice vid man, dis is exactly what i needed to see. i want to turn my 06 ext ls into an SS but i didnt think any one but me wud tke time to do such a job.

[@twofast4nu]

Did I miss read the Odometer... or did that body have 400,000 miles on it? Did it actually run at this point? I heard the inline 6 in these was decent, but not 400,000 miles decent. Really impressive that it's in that shape if so.

[@williamcallison2582]

now to do my trailblazer.... mmmmm. some how i think i am dreaming. awesome video

[@dynocompe1990]

looks sick! I might not have gone with that hood style, but its an awesome rig!

[@Nihllation]

im getting ready to take on the same endeavor with my LT. what do you think is the best starting place, or shoud i just go all at once?

[@spadz93]

holy shit! this is the sickest tbss ive even seen!. how much did all the paint cost? i wanna get mine painted this way

[@imranhanif5105]

looks very beautiful, nice.

[@XxSUGARSHANE777]

Sweet job man, I was wondering what size rims and is that a flat candy orange or something?

[@drtabe]

One hell of a job on the trailblazer,,all the haters keep hatin thats what motivates people..

[@mmmnascar]

Don't get me wrong, the body looks good but whats it got on the 1/4, or the track????

[@ZayerProductions]

hey im absolutely in love with your blazer and im thinking about doing something like that to my gmc envoy Denali but if you don't mind me asking how much would a job like this cost?

[@jamesshaughnessy3472]

thats a badass truck

[@ryanraquino4747]

James Shaughnessy awesome paint job tail lights looks cool too

[@BBAHUNTER]

@smumm That's not the case, at least with the TBSS. It's very easy to make a TBSS hood scoop functional and most actually are. They have a duct that runs to the top of the airbox with a gasket to put air directly on the filter. I have thought about buying one of the hoods for my TBSS as well. Oh, and Ford even does the same trick stock on some of the Mustangs.

[@islidemyride]

Amazing build, But why did you change the windshield, is there a difference ??

[@joebrenke2573]

he chopped it a little

[@NCDropkickSquad]

F'k the haters Bro!! The truck looks bad-ass. I own a TBSS and this looks better than 95% of the real SS's out there. Great work. I wish I had that kind of skill.

[@alwoo100]

did you do anything to the suspension?beautiful truck,love the paint.

[@rodsingleton3097]

What tyranny did you use? When it's finished what do you think money wise in it??

[@xDr3wskyx]

beautiful job man. does it have any performance upgrades??

[@ebusseyrchmi]

That paint job is sick...what color is that?

[@derrickbarker343]

I agree if thats the case but does he not have listed in the description box stroker box and procharger...? I cant imagine all that work being done and then it being power by not only a 4.2, or a 4.2 procharged, but a 4.2 stroker block with a charger... maybe thats the case idk but it seems more likely its a 6.0 or 6.2 ls stroker block?

[@WILLKent8]

Not a big fan of orange, but that is one of the sickest Trailblazers I have ever seen.

[@yesac41]

very sick. wish i had the talent to do that stuff.

[@angelytolyndo]

hey pal did you get the rims like that??? or can you paint them???? please i have a trailblazer ss too can i get some info!!

[@twotall07]

I like that paint job, what kind of orange is that?

[@leschampagnes1]

neat...but more interested in the duster in the garage next to it

[@SHANKDAWGBABY]

you did a damn good job with this but I gotta ask why you threw the factory deck back in there?

[@kenho3j0k3r]

loving that orange color

[@Triphax]

Its not about what you buy, its about what you build.

[@bigbank347]

just wondering but how do you get inside the car with no door handles? nice car i want one like that,

[@10RRASK]

I have seen this truck in person a few times and I must say that he did an amazing job

[@njnetsfuckinrule]

How exactly does one open the doors? Not dissing it, just curious.

[@_thevaporz]

absolutely stunning design! the hood scoop is sharp and aggressive. it compliments the power under the hood nicely! did you put a LS2 in there? have any updated pics with the procharger or other engine mods? have you dyno'd this beast yet? very, very nice job. also, great touch on the riveted exhaust tip cutouts!

[@richcitymustangs5106]

what did it take to swap in the ls motor in it ? did you have to change computer ? motor mounts ? wire harness ? I'm trying to install a 6.0 tbss motor in my 4.2 but I wanna know what is required to do the swap , thanks in advance

[@adamlongbotham2011]

I am wanting to do the same conversion to my trailblazer. where did you get the parts? is there a website that sells the parts and says what all parts are necessary? any help would be appreciated.

[@densidadglobal2610]

Te felicito es una buena SUV muy fuertes y suave al manejar.

[@ConeKillerAUTOx]

Very nice! I took a lot of heat for my Envoy Turbo build that I did. I like the look you gave the truck a lot and man is that unique! Any plans on making it a true SS with the LS2 !?!?!

[@00lexuses300]

Your envoy turbo is beautiful! I checked it out!

[@ConeKillerAUTOx]

Thank you!

[@camrod120]

did you have a ss.for parts I noticed the ss.wheel inside or did you fix a ss.with a plain trailblazer I thought about putting 6.0 in mine but the cost I can trade mine and have the money left over to paint it for how much you spent on your bad ass SS.clone

[@BBAHUNTER]

Looks good. When is the drivetrain coming in?

[@iMSoHigh420ritenow]

i like you ride! i bet building it was half the fun.

[@LovettMyHatersyall]

This is the hottest conversion I've seen. I'm in the Detroit Area and just inherited one from MS. I would love to bring my truck and have you trick it out. I have some ideas and a 3d Printer to print that interior items I want as well. Please email me so I can get this moving asap~

[@thanksalotbikes]

did you already have the trailblazer? if not with that many miles i bet you got it cheap

[@Retropizzashop]

so sick. nice work... is that a flat orange

[@tmaxa]

just the pics in the slide show ! was there something you were looking for ? that i could answer for you .

[@52fakeoutt]

That was a super nice build..who cares if it was a true ss or not..however seems like some low level work at 0:16 for a shop of that caliber..why not reuse it anyway?

[@FinancedByMurder]

shaved doors make it look so much better

[@maegris113233]

@tmaxa Have you touched the suspension at all?

[@Are2Squared]

Cool build, TBSS’s are getting hard to find in good shape! At least this way you know what you have!!!

[@RuckerBuilds]

Sorry this might be a stupid question to most but how are you accessing the doors and liftgate since you deleted the door handles

[@joebrenke2573]

fob

[@Kole208]

i would do a black stripe through the side, orange is awesome but its a cooler that needs allot of compliments by other coolers.

[@rebelracer77]

wow that's awesome..... we had a trailblazer then we traded it for a 09 suburban and i really miss the trailblazer lol

[@Krysco51]

Awesome job, looks great, but there is no way in hell that would be in the snow after all that hard work and money.

[@tomsws6]

Great job! Im thinkin comp grey wheels might make it pop a little better though.

[@prevalenttruth]

awesome truck and video

[@isaiaheckert4429]

Is it me or are there no exterior door handles?
