This episode is a chronicle from my formative years as an engineer and car guy. I went to engineering school at General Motors Institute from '80-85. My automotive engineering buddies and I devoured every story about the twin-turbo Trans Am project as they came out in Car & Driver. Mrs Orcutt's driveway sounded like paradise to us. And to top it off, Csaba Csere came to GMI and gave a lecture somewhere around that time.

Wow. Not your regular podcast. I loved how you got right in to technical talk. Loved it budd. Keep em comin!

More to come! Thanks for listening.

Thanks Gale. One of treasures of the automotive performance industry. When people fail to understand turbocharging I point them directly to you.

Csaba Csere, that’s a name I haven’t heard for decades! Glad you two didn’t die that day! Listening to the stories, for me, are just as interesting as learning things. Thank you, sir!

Loved the interview. Great stories and very relatable. Thank you.

2022. Bleeps. From the man himself known as Gale Banks. Are we not all adults here. Engine guy mechanic. We can take a curse word just be real. Please don't treat us like children

You issue is not with Gale, but with youtube management- you know... the ones who censored the Covid truth and the election truth.

This podcast series is simply outstanding, cant get enough!

I worked at DMAX for over a decade. I remember being all excited seeing Gale walk through in around 2009. Seeing that Sidewinder sitting in the lobby was pretty sweet!

I love this podcast speed school. I just hope it goes forever and I will always listen.

awesome its always great to see new content from the best minds in the industry

Amazing stuff. More please!

Very fun to soak in the knowledge from Gale!

Good to hear about the hybrid truck program iv got a VW golf GTE with a tune that is a true performance car with a 100hp electric motor sandwiched between the motor and gearbox very simple and works well with 6 speed gearbox

Excited for episode 4

That's really cool Gayle I remember going to Ohio and taking a ride in this 1st 6.5 diesel diesel awesome plant. I it was Frigidaire along time ago I uuse one of their stoves to Powder coat stuff. But maybe it was Delphi

Learni'n from the BEST!!

Will this series be coming to a podcast platform anytime in the future

Did you do any work on the Toro Flow ?

I'm surprised Gale hasn't opened a technical training school by now....

What happened to the Sidewinder alternate aint trucks can you talk about them the history But one day I want to build a replica

Wouldn’t that be something if someone listening remembers two nut drivers passing them on the 133 highway headed to the 5 freeway north on the left shoulder lol. (Time stamp end of story 30:03)

💕I like listening to it, I would love watching it if you put it in a nice cool space with not so bright lights... 🤷

I think Chevy did a Flat Plane crank, because Ford Mustang did it, so it’s marketing. I say this because NASCAR cross plane cranks engines hit 9,000 plus rpm. Am I right? I love take in lot’s of air, then blow it out 😂

We need a banks book

Killing A Duramax is a single turbo. You may be referring to our Monster Truck engine, a supercharged twin-turbo Duramax. We'll be rolling that engine back into Dyno Cell No. 2 soon.

I don’t get any video?

What happened to Lockjaw, killing a Duramax etc? Get back to the good stuff.

LokJaw is being tuned right now (engine and trans). Killing a Duramax and Monster truck are on hold while dial in the AVL dyno.
