HOT ROD Garage: Season 1, Episode 1

1 - 1: Draguar Engine Swap, El Camino 4L60-E Trans Install & More!

HOT ROD Garage, presented by Lincoln Tech, is the new show from HOT ROD Magazine with host Mike Finnegan and guest David Freiburger of HOT ROD and the Roadkill series here on the Motor Trend Channel. In this very first episode, we have fun showing you how to install a 4L60-E overdrive transmission into a 1969 Chevy El Camino, drop a 700hp blown small-block into a 1974 Jaguar XJ12, get TIG welding lessons from the guys at ToxicFab, and do smoky burnouts at every opportunity. We have tips from Lincoln Tech, Gumout, and Duplicolor. There's dragstrip testing, a live punk band, bad jokes, great parts, and lots of inside info into the cars that have appeared on Roadkill. Check out HOT ROD Garage every month for the tips, tricks, and wrenching that you've come to expect from the crew at HOT ROD Magazine.
