Decided to go ahead and post up one of our "builds" thats been in the works here and there but is finally getting going at a good clip, all "custom" work and engine assembly etc is being done by us in house
The truck is going to be a strip/dyno truck and used for advertising at local events etc, should (hopefully) be making its way down for rudys opener
Truck started off as a 08 reg cab dually, and it will stay a dually. went through some motor changes, different single set ups, put 450 axles under it, towed with it. Then got bored with it and decided to go "all out" everything is in the works currently with 90% of parts here and motor being assembled this week and axles going under the truck next week
here is a breakdown (its long)

afa ported & polished heads w/ over sized valves
rcd springs & retainers
o ringed
afa ported intake manifold
short block-
30 over block w/ midwest delipped/coated/fly cut pistons

r&r rods
stage 3 rcd cam
polished crank & balanced rotating assembly
mahle bearings
arp studs
arp hardware throughout
ats billet flywheel
manton lifters
manton pushrods
rcd aluminum oil pan
fuel-
twin k16 pumps
mpd 150% nozzles (on way to rcd for balancing etc)
fuel bowl ******
regulated return (unsure of brand)
fuel cell
twin ad165 4g's
turbo set up-
custom built ht turbo s4** with race cover

misc/cosemetic -

mishimoto radiator
fuel dually wheels rear/ single up front w/ 420's

everything under hood powdercoated
edge cts 2 for gauges
as stated before pretty much everything is here with exception of some odds and ends, biggest factor is being swamped @ shop with customers stuff so tough to make time to work on our own stuff. Truck should make the quest down to rudys for the spring event is what we are hoping for. Named it jawz since shes a wide girl and seemed fitting LOL, will post pics throughout
