What happens when a broke teenager with a $60 junkyard turbo challenges big-block muscle cars at a Texas drag strip?
In this video, we dive into the incredible true story of 17-year-old Gale Banks, who in 1974 revolutionized American drag racing with nothing but sixty dollars and pure ingenuity. Unable to afford a V8 engine like his competitors, Banks scavenged a turbocharger from a Caterpillar diesel engine and jerry-rigged it onto his inline-six Chevy Nova using plumbing parts and HVAC ducting. His homemade setup transformed a 105-horsepower grocery-getter into a 400-horsepower giant killer that humiliated expensive big-block V8s, proved forced induction was the future of performance, and accidentally launched a multi-million dollar engineering empire that would reshape the entire automotive industry.
