Had very good success racing my last Duramax mud truck so now I'm building a lighter, faster, better truck. My last truck was a 2005 4 door full bodied truck that weighed 8600lbs.

Here are some specs on the new truck:
Full 4 link race chassis
Toyota cab with everything else fiberglass
LBZ engine (PPE tuning. Thanks Dan!!)
Trans-specialties 5500 powerglide with brake
Converter?? ***** Please chime in with ideas.
SCS transfer case
King coilover shocks
14.9x24 cut tractor tires
F106 rear
C103 rear hybrid with Rockwell 2.5 ton outers and axles for the front
I need help with a good name for the truck.
Sponsors welcome!!

Looks sweet I would get rid of that egr and put a lb7 up pipe on it. And get some good efi tune on it. That lbz should make a lil over 550+ hp in a light truck would be pretty bad ass

Should weigh no more than 5000lbs with me in it.
