Tales of a Gearhead
New Chevy Crate Engine
On this episode Stacey cracks open the crate on the new Chevy ZZ632/1000* crate engine — the largest and most powerful crate engine in the brand’s history. A naturally aspirated 632-cubic-inch V-8 BEAST that produces 1,004 horsepower and 876 lb-ft of torque. From there, Stacey dives into all the other things big and small that you need to consider before purchasing a crate engine of any kind.
 
After that, Stacey whips out his McPherson acoustic guitar to do a little follow up on his interview with Jerry Reed and jam out to show what made Jerry’s style of playing so special and influential.
