What make is that cab....it's not a ford. You're doing good work. Spoon

I just don't see how this is gonna work. The inlet side of the turbo is open. What are you blowing into? I don't see a hat on top of the carb. If this is a draw thru, the carb needs to get drawn into the turbo. If it is a "Blow through" carb setup, you need to blow through the top of the...

Was that his wife on drums? Spooner

Whew....I've been reading this thread for two day. Looks great ! ! ! Could you possibly post a side view of the truck so we can see the stance, results of the channel and the bed length? I am building a truck and would like to look at the proportians. How long is the bed? Thanks for all the...
