Offroad Truck Battle: 1937 Ford Megatruck Vs. Chevy Silverado Prerunner – Beragampengetahuan

What happens when a methanol Megatruck races a turbo LS-powered Chevy Silverado Prerunner on a dirt track with jumps? It’s pure adrenaline-pumping fun. Sure, it isn’t as fast as a typical drag race on tarmac, but the jumps and V8 noises more than make up for it.

The race featured in Hoonigan’s This vs. That series involves a classic 1937 Ford named “Flyboy,” owned and built by Devin Villanueve from Canada. The ride is quite tall as it sits on massive 64-inch paddy tires inspired by agricultural spec tires.

It also has a solid axle setup that boasts 21 inches and a whopping 46 inches of wheel travel at the front and rear. It’s equipped with a supercharged 548 Chevy V8, making 1,600 horsepower (on the flywheel) and a 20-ton differential from a crane. On top of that, the V8 uses methanol, the same fuel that the fastest piston-powered car, the Speed Demon 715, uses.
