C10 Nationals 2025: Nashville Sets Record-Breaking Truck Celebration

The 5th annual Classic Parts of America C10 Nationals® presented by Chevrolet Performance roared into Nashville last weekend, and 2025 set new all-time records! With 1,400 trucks on display, this was two days of pure, non-stop excitement for C10 fans from across the country. From garage-built classics to jaw-dropping pro-level builds, every truck brought its own flavor, and every corner of the show was buzzing with energy.

LS1 CAM SWAP AND DYNO TEST

When it comes to adding power to your small-block Chevy, the camshaft is an integral part of the performance equation. Luckily for owners of Chevy’s latest iteration (Gen III) of the famous small block, the modern fuel-injected LS1 responds just as well to camshaft upgrades as the LT1s, L79s and L48s of old. Naturally, cam technology has come a long way since the days of the Duntov 30-30 profile. The improvements in cam technology are important, as the new LS1 is head and shoulders above any of the old ’60s and ’70s muscle-car small blocks, regardless of the advertised power ratings.

ONE FREAKY RIDE!

Question: What has 861 all-wheel-drive horsepower and 773 lb-ft of torque-driven “grunt,” which can carry around an object the size of a grand piano? The answer? John Frey’s Loveland, Colorado-based twin-turbo 1991 GMC Syclone pickup truck, that’s what! Ah, better cancel that piano—this light-duty sport utility vehicle’s hauling days are over. The only thing Frey (who’s the CEO of Bully Racing Enterprises) is interested in hauling is—well, you know what we mean.
