Jeep CJ-5...Supercharged! | Roadkill Garage | MotorTrend
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
What’s the best way to improve a 1975 CJ-5 with a small-block Chevy? Step one: Don't focus on the suspension, axles, gearing, and so forth. Step two: Add more power, of course! With some leftover parts from Engine Masters, the guys swap in a 383 short-block topped with a Weiand 671 supercharger and create the blown CJ-5 now known as the BJ-5! #MotorTrend #RoadkillGarage #Jeep

I understand why they took full episodes off of KZread. At the same time tho, I feel like they got more views here than on the other platform. Roadkill being on KZread was what made it Roadkill. It wasn’t some flashy “this is how you do this, this, and this” kinda show. It was fun, dirty, halfassed car Hackery, but most of all. It was relatable. Some of the people could relate to driving all the way to summit racing HQ in Ohio, in a car that’s running on 7 cylinders, park said car in the parking lot of summit racing, rip the motor out in below freezing temperatures, go inside, buy the motor you preordered, install it, then drive all the way back home. That was the glory of roadkill.
I was always a truck guy until i bought my first Jeep. A 79 Cj7 Golden Eagle with a 360 , Edelbrock 4 barrel and of course headers with side turn outs at the doors. That was the funest vehicle I ever owned!!!!

Yeah, I do to.. Roadkill has a new segment on Friday evening called junkyard gold, and is awesome as well. If you haven't seen it yet, I highly recommend it and is with classic car authority Steve Magnante and tracks down cars for the Roadkill crew to build for future projects on the show. As we know, they build many different vehicles on there. But really like it that they feature a lot of Mopars, and Freiburger is really into them to. Anyway, check it out if you haven't seen it and am sure that you will like it

Anyone else think about the sudden deceleration can shear shafts? The shafts looked like it had fracture for along time before hand, from the same abuse hahaha love it
My Cj5 7 is getting a 454. Send me an a blower!! It’s all 1 ton on 40s! I’ll let you ralley it!! Hahaha
From the looks of the corrosion on the driveshaft end of that output shaft, it had been suffering for a while!
I had a CJ5 with a one piece fiberglass tilt front end, a 4.3 Chevy engine, and some tool put a Saginaw 4 speed in it. It was scary AF to drive. This rig is gnarly!!

How did you like the 4.3? I have a tpi to put in mine but I'm thinking a 4.3 or some Buick v6 might be enough.

@@xmo552 The 4.3 was plenty strong in the ol 5er. They make good torque down low and pull pretty well when you run the rpms up too. Kinda nice to keep some weight off of the front end as well. I'd prefer that TPI though. That's the engine Chevy should have put into their trucks instead of the TBI.
You know they are real car guys bc they age 10 years for every actual year. Legends.
I think this just lit a fire to get another jeep
May you always steer straight and true.
When you hear,"blown,Frieberger,and engine",it seems there should be the standard oil slick,shards of block,and allot of smoke.

I LOVE MY HOT ROD FAMILY!!!! YOU GUYS ARE GREAT !!!!! YOU INSPIRE ME WITH MY PROJECT!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!
Use to watch every episode haven't seen a video since you left KZread was a dark day for me now that shat too nice for roadkill
I just “panic ordered” for my RZR. I literally LOL’d when he said that.
Nice, love it! Keep this project alive!
that thing sounds fantastic!
This looks like my sand wash in riverside California
Great episode guys!
Yess finally the bj5 its on youtube
I like the AMC's small block the best for an AMC Jeeps. Yours needs some driveline safety hoops. Keep that driveline from coming through the floor of your Jeep at 7,000 RPM.
Dave, Would you PLEASE do a compound turbo on a gasoline engine! we need to see what a budget pikes peak car looks like. ALSO no doubt it should do well going over the Rockies!
No better sound than a V8 with blower whine. Especially if it has a big cam.
Love this show
I think the Jeep is my new favorite!
I like how the exhaust pipes blow the water away from the intake
What a great idea!
Awesome Sounds so good
Fun Episode now that you did all the work and time in it can I have this wonderful machine lol 😆😂😂
Cool men... fantastic 🤩🔥
But it looks a whole lot cooler I think that's the first thing you need to have
Best day ever !!
For a long time I've been trying to figure out where I have seen Freiberger before, or at least who he reminds me of. He reminds me of the guitar player in Cheap Trick, the one who wears the ball cap. (rick neilson) Perhaps that IS a young Freiberger before his hot rod phase of life.

Ah, another roadkill "sampler". Fryberger going back to his roots, that's cool. Dulcich is no Finnegan, but for a gearhead he's not a complete stiff. Blown Jeep looks like fun. Still not paying to watch Roadkill

I learned the hard way that more HP does not always equal better performance. Short wheelbase vehicles with high Hp are a waste and are an accident waiting to happen at fast speeds. The only time more HP might be usable is in mud or sand.
