In this thrilling episode of Larry Chen's automotive escapades, we are taken on a riveting tour of his latest project at store 17. Chen unveils his ambitious McLaren build, where he tackles the challenges of a gearbox swap and a mind-boggling LS engine conversion. The attention to detail is staggering, from custom coilovers to a unique fuel system setup, all in pursuit of pushing the power boundaries while retaining the hydraulic system. It's a symphony of engineering ingenuity and sheer determination, setting the stage for a roaring twin-turbo beast that promises to redefine performance standards.

But the excitement doesn't stop there. Chen shifts gears to showcase a Porsche tube chassis project like no other. With a vision to create a Class 10 off-road marvel that retains the iconic 911 aesthetics, he embarks on a journey filled with bespoke modifications and a quest for unmatched performance. Drawing inspiration from industry stalwarts like Morgan Clark and Matt from 826 Engineering, Chen's Porsche project is a testament to his unwavering passion and commitment to pushing the boundaries of automotive innovation.

As we delve deeper into Chen's world, we are treated to a glimpse of his eclectic collection, featuring an LS-powered Toyota 86 and a meticulously crafted C10 truck. The meticulous attention to detail and unwavering dedication to perfection shine through in every project, showcasing Chen's unique blend of creativity and technical prowess. From the roar of a twin-turbo LS engine to the sleek lines of a carbon-clad Toyota 86, Larry Chen's automotive empire is a testament to the boundless possibilities that await in the world of custom car builds.
