Damned fine lookin build you've got there J.H. I love the IC set up. Never seen another truck set up like that.

Love the Mad Max blacked out look of the truck too. Very sinister. :tup:

Well I finally got my carbon dash housing. Now when I get a break from my job I can go start doing some testing with the truck. Drove it up and down the street a few times, and its Fun let me tell you.

Blk00Z28 The motor made 470 we only turned it to 6900, and that was with a Holley 750, and the turbo manifolds with a dump pipe connected to the turbo flange.

Re: Progress of Bowtie motor (Not looking good)

are you going to make a c.f. light switch plate too? The stocker just doesn't do that sweet bezel justice!

That is beautiful. very clean.

Hope the testing goes will.

Off topic are you still riding for Yamaha? reason i ask is becasue a friend on mine works out of atlanta something dealing with R&D with yamaha. His wife used to work for my bank. He also worked for Larry pegram when he was with yoshi in the 90's. His name is Ry Landry. didn'y know if you knew him or not.

I've tryed taking the not looking good off but doesn't seem to work. I don't reconize that name. I use to ride for Yamaha, but I ride for Kawi now.
