Paint the truck a flat black but have whoever is painting it or if you are trace out the lightening with the green. It would basically be like a green version of the shied diesel dragster

Whats the weak link on the front end? Seems the stock twin I beam setup would be plenty to hold the weight of everything.

Current idea is a dark green for most of the truck and part of front clip and bottom of truck to fade into gloss black. As far as name i was thinking of something with my last name in in. Like Hall-in, Hall effect, Over-hall, etc. Nothing really seems to fit right though. Gonna need some CompD opinion.

Twin I-beam should work fine. Just is gonna take a little more tow in to get it to drive straight.

I-beam kingpin is very strong. That's not the issue. More of the bump steer etc. I have a solution now.

Not really an engine stand. More of a shop tool. Moves trannys and engines around when you don't need em on a rocker. 2x2 square tube with a sheet of mesh on top on casters.

Thanks, it's coming along. Got an estimate for paint today and redid the back half to lower it further.
I should have put the rest of the chargers together and taken a picture. Ht4b, another gt55, sb, big BW and some others.
