You've really got that truck moving. Congrats!
I forget, what size turbos?

Truck has a 4094r and a 485 beside it. I and debating on switching up to a single s4 with a larger turbine and selling this setup. It spools amazing.

Well things have changed a bit over the winter and it's all kept me crazy busy. I am jumping to the new class in odds outlaw 5.90. Truck has went on a much stronger diet with back half 4 link rear and as partial front half. All the glass is replaced with Lexan . One piece Fiberglass front clip. I am staying with the mechanical game still but I have switched from a 5.9 12v block to a sleeves 6.7 block. Still very much a work in progress

This was starting the frame cut and back half.
From there I build a moly back half with Afco shocks and firepunk 4 link brackets. Pretty happy with it for my first one.
From there I moved into the front end and cut everything infront of the engine mounts off whole axle got stripped and all oem steering was replaced with custom rack and pinion.
I need to do the front cross member and 2 welds in the cab and the chassis is pretty much done. Everything has worked rather well for a very custom
Unit.
The windows are fitted with hand cut Lexan and Tou can't tell until you touch it that it's not glass.
Engine also came back from
Machine today I need to cut the block for cam bushings and it's ready to assemble.
Hoping to be at Rudy's race at the end of the month. As you can see its a lot of work.
I can't thank those who have helped me enough with firepunk engineering, infinite performance and Hamilton cams. Without them this wouldn't be possible.

It is not a manual rack and pinion it's hydro assist. There is a lot that goes into it. Nothing from the cab forward is stock except the engine mounts. I will do a write up on the rack when I am ready

Looks great, excellent fab work!!!
On the 2v head, we've been getting quite a bit of great feedback on power numbers from the as-cast War Heads from Hamilton. Both in our own testing and other's in the industry we've worked with they make excellent power as-cast. A few guys have had cracking issues with their War Heads when ported to the extreme limits but the 3 that we've played with (1 ported and 2 as-cast) have all been great as far as heat cracking in the valve seats and port bowl area.

I am not running a war head by choice currently . This is a standard large Valve Hamilton unit. This engine is a bit different then most but should run rather well for a 2 valve . Probably start the season with a 480/96 and be replaced by a 72-75/87-96 and a gt55 beside it. Downside to 5.90 is I will be running pro street at many non ODSS events. Looking to get the truck to 60 in the 1.2x range

The truck is about finished and I will do a large update when that happens. Currently doing the front Intercooler Mount.
I will be honest, the amount of custom work this go around has really slowed progress more then I would like.
The front clip comes from joe Frey at hot bodz. He has an amazing product
