The "Illegal" Truck Engine That Humiliated NASCAR V8s
It was an engine from a dump truck. It shouldn't have been fast. But it terrified NASCAR so much, they changed the rulebook to kill it.

In 1974, legendary mechanic Smokey Yunick declared war on the V8. His weapon? A Chevy 292 Inline-6 taken from a delivery truck, strapped with a turbocharger, and tuned to produce 450+ horsepower.

In this episode of The Lost Garage, we uncover the story of the most politically inconvenient engine in racing history. Smokey proved that efficiency and forced induction were the future, but the factory teams (Ford, Chrysler, and GM) conspired to silence him.

We dig deep into the archives to reveal:

The "Trojan Horse": How Smokey used the Oil Crisis to justify his radical engine.

The Build: How he turned a heavy "boat anchor" truck block into a high-revving monster.

The "Blow-Through" Carb: The engineering secret most teams couldn't figure out.

The Betrayal: The retroactive 1.7x displacement rule that banned the car overnight.

Vindication: How modern cars (like the M3 and Raptor) finally proved Smokey right 50 years later.

This is the story of the engine that was too good to race.
