Where can I find that steering wheel???? I love it! thanks.

I think we all need a friend like Dave in our lives!

No car in the world sounds like a Vette with sidepipes...Vettes rules!!!!

Can't wait until I get my hands on one of these. This big block sounds awesome.

We salute you Dave for your taste in cars,real American genius

I like Dave. He drives his big block 4 speed Corvette like it should be driven.

Sounds like it will barely idle Rips like a Dragster Love it Watch your legs!

gorgeous. i have a '74 orange L82 that I ordered side pipes for...won't show up for another month, but listening to this awesome big block, I can't wait. mine also has a lazy right eye like his too lol

No LS will ever sound as good as the ol’ carbureted engines..even the 327 sounds better than my C7Z

Lovely old car, the soundtrack of America.

I had a 71 LT-! back in the day with side pipes, I still remember the exhaust smell.....

Would love to hear this on a winding mountain road❣️

That sounds amazing! I love the side pipes👍🏻

I had a '73 with these Hooker side pipes. Sounded great with a big cam. I forgot to warn my dad and he burned his calf pretty bad getting out.

I had a 68 Camaro with a big block for years, was practically begging t hear the dust come off the tires, recently bought a Vette, has a ways to go, Beautiful car!

That AC was the cherry on top ! LOL .

BEST sounding car on KZfaq. PERIOD

Makes a grown man smile!!

Nice, a fan of sidemounts (had a '69 Vette/L72 with Hookers), love that sound

Cannot beat a manual transmission sound. Great car sans the steering wheel.

So awesome. I have a 79 LS7(bigblock) 4 speed. I need to find those headers!

That sounds awesome! Super nice Vette!

u shift like pro

Goals for my ‘72 💪🏼

I owned a '73 big block/4spd with side pipe headers. It's gone now. I also drove a '73 small block/4spd enough to get familiar with it. The difference in handling are night & day. Also have a '68 Camaro that has had both big block and small block in it, same huge handling difference.

Oh that sounds sick !!

I own a yellow 1972 Corvette Stingray 350 4-speed black leather interior T-tops pop out back window luggage rack with side pipes chrome bumpers front and back....And she is absolutely beautiful not to mention badass. And if you want to know what she sounds like just watch this video again.

Beautiful! Im looking at a 73 convertible with a 502 and aa richmond 5 speed..i dont like how close the alternator pulley is to the top radiator hose🤔🤔that 74 is Badass!!

Raw power!

I like the wheel it gos good with the old c3

Holy smokes

Its a nice car. in 1978 i has a 1973 same color 454 auto i miss that car.

....i don't think that's stock ... 😂 Very VERY nice car!

@4:47 it sounds like a war going on

Such music to my ears! I have a sliver '73 LS4 that needs to breathe better. So many question. My car is a two owner and the second owner was my brother so I know the complete history. It is a numbers matching survivor and I have been entrusted with it. I feel I do not want to molest this beauty but if I can bring this 50 year old time piece up with modernized ignition and other options while organizing and saving original parts , armed with information on the feasibility, I might be inclined to do so. Your machine is so nice. Mine is a Turbo 400 and the RPM clicking at 3 grand at 70 just kills me knowing that massive torque (r) can be happier much lower. Don't get me wrong it will get away from you if your not carful and triple digits are mere seconds away if you so chose. Even stock as de rated as this engine is ( 275 hp and 390 ft/lbs torque with 8.25:1 compression) the sound and feel is holy. The car invokes spirits and feelings which you thought were long gone. Congratulations on your rare beauty.

Love the Muncie but this engine cries out for a 6 speed Tremec

Was this in Long Island newyork?

Sounds awesome. What pipes and headers did you go with? I'm planning to put Doug's on mine

That sounds fantastic ! What cam do you have in it ? Am I seeing cast iron manifolds too ? Wow, would’ve sworn it had headers.

What is your ignition setup? I see an old style coil and no vacuum advance hooked up..... There are some really good setups out there. I run an HEI that triggers an old Jacobs Ignition box and Jacobs high energy coil with an aftermarket adjustable vacuum advance tuned with a shitload of advance at idle and run 40* total. My 454 is in a 4500 lb ‘72 C10 and outruns all these LS3 vettes....I wish it was in a C3 and weighed 1000 lbs less, it would run 10 sec quarter miles.

Smile generator (:

Very sharp ride. Which aluminum intake do you have? I just bought a 1976 454 4 speed. Obviously not original. I would like to replace the cast iron intake. The aftermarket manifold suppliers say their oval port manifolds will not fit a Corvette. Any help is appreciated.

Beautiful car! I have 2 77's just bought a 93 40th convertable. What steering wheel is that and is it smaller than factory?

Very cool car! I love the side pipes! Does this exhaust have catalytic converter?

Nice car and it sounds amazing. What kind of steering wheel is that? I have a silver '76 and I detest the factory steering wheel. It looks exactly like the one in my "93 GMC 4X4. It really doesn't look right in my car. I love the one in yours.

74's are great. They have no cats and the back window comes out if you remove the trim.

What year was this? I had a 79 silver corvette with white leather interior 😊

Power steering?

Sounds Like Mini Chevelle.

Where do you get that interior?

you answered a lot in the comments... side pipe and header brand and style.. steering wheel brand and seller.. camshaft selection.. big block.. Is it fuel injected? Or, carbureted? What setup? Thanks "better watch your legs" comment.. was wondering if that was an issue too..

What steering wheel is that ? It's nice, I want one.

what 4 speed is that ? im loving those ratios !

What cam is in it?

what mufflers does he have inside the pipes?

DAVE ?.........…...... DAVES NOT HERE !

Nah, my favorite Vette yrs is 1963-67 and must be a Stingray Coupe.

Love the car, BUT I hate when someone has to drive so fast in an older car, yes its fast for its era,,, BUT a newer basic car is fast, handles, and has ice cold ac and comfort.... Dont get me wrong, I have a few vettes myself, BUT, driven low N slow

Think it's actually annoying when it's that loud. I enjoy an engine growl, not a screech.

Nuthin like the sound of a big ol rat ...

Bwulll Pwakkk lol

Tesla is much quicker but will never be a driving experience like this.

It's a Vette but g-damn. How could they have made such an ugly back bumper. 74 was a terrible year for almost all cars.

Funny. At the end when he leaves the neighborhood you can hear the roar for a block. Normally it would piss you off if you were just a random neighbor. But because you know its your friend in a Big Block Corvette it just sounds like music to your ears! Mine too.
