Sam's V8 Shop
My name is Sam, I'm 17 and I live in Connecticut, USA. My dream is to own my own hot rod shop
Out shopping for car parts?

The LS2 I built for AJ ended up going into his Chevy trailblazer SS! The blazer made 390 wheel hp!! Not bad for awd!!!
Aj did a whole frame off build on the truck, built engine and transmission and much more. The 6.0 LS2 has a truck Norris cam. The thing definitely screams with the long tube headers as well. What do you think about the build?!! Leave a comment
AJs LS2 TBSS chopping away with the truck Norris cam
AJs AWD trail blazer SS made 390 wheel horse power
Happy holidays!! Check out AJs LS2 ripping on the run stand. This is the coldest I’ve ever ran one of my engines. It was about 10° outside when I ran it with AJ. But thanks to the carburetor and LS ignition box it cranked up no problem!! What kind of LS builds do you want to see next?

The LS2 build is going great so far! All the bearings were in spec so it was an easy assembly. Check out the ls7 lifters. Awesome build so far

The LS2 build is coming together! Crankshaft and camshaft is in! Now it’s time to drop in the pistons and rods!

Check out the new LS2 build for AJ. You can see it’s looking rough. But soon enough it will be rebuilt and looking like jewelry! Check out my new YouTube video on it! Going into a 06 trailblazer SS
Happy thanksgiving to you all! I’m so thankful for all of your support over the years! What kind of content do you want to see? What kind of builds do you want? Have a great thanksgiving all!

Keith Black 505 Chevy Big Block - waiting for the ProCharger to arrive.
First start up on John’s 505 with the Holley Terminator X multi-port EFI - waiting for the blower to arrive from ProCharger Superchargers. That’s nice music for a Tuesday afternoon! What do you think?

Today my dad and I took the shop truck down to New Jersey to see my customers . Make sure to give him a follow and see his jeep rip through the trails with my motor. I had a lot of fun building this 6.0 ls I hope Nick loves it even more!
Here’s a preview of the YouTube video about Nick’s 6.0 LS build.

Bobby’s 383 really sounds great. How would you like to have this motor in your driver?
Sam’s V8 Shop (About Sam)
Sam started building motors when he was 10 years old. His dream is to have his own shop one day. You can check out some of his work on his website:
https://samsv8shop.com/
He currently has six motors out there in hot rods that he either built or repaired. One of his goals is to get automotive classes put back into his school as an elective for students to learn about how cars and engines work. He thinks hot rodding needs to be kept alive!
You can also follow his story on instagram and youtube if you search for samsv8shop.
Thank you for supporting a kid trying to make a positive change in this world.
