Whats the story on the truck? Sry if there was a thread I missed

Steve bought it, made it a short bed, then was too big of a homo to finish it LOL

saw a teaser on instagram, you just adding the 76 atmo, no 62 or 66 to accompany it? maybe some 30% or 60% nozzles, maybe stumble into a dual fueler kit from the company of your choice, ported intake manifold, external gate, bov, maybe a little nitrous, or a lot if your into that stuff.

Just want to get it running on stock fuel first, still not really decided on turbos yet.

They appear to be working for me, tapatalk might be screwing them up.

I see them now on my laptop but still nothing on the phone.
That should be a cool truck when it's done!

I was wondering what was happening with this truck.

While it's that far apart already just strip the frame quick and go get it powdercoated... best 300 bucks you can spend. We just got one done for an obs fummins we are building and it is tits

I'm sure he'll do it better than powder coat. That stuff never lasts on the east coast

I'll stick with years of personal experience on several different vehicles, pieces of equipment, trailers, attachments, parts and pieces. East coast winters destroy that stuff in a New York minute, pun intended

And $300 is a cheap ass powder coat job. Truck deserves better than that with all the labor he's gonna have into it
