    Sweet looking ride Any Idea what kind of boost will be powering the beast? Please............. say turbo/s :D
    blowers are cool too but nothing beats the feeliing of turbo power; in my opinion. But if you make N/a power than you know you are getting it done .........ether way still cool to see an all steel body, the way they should be!

    Funny thing is I have this 2JZ motor right now that I am going to be building up for the little toyota was almost thinking it would be funny to slap one of those bitches in it and a huge turbo just to see what it will do... I am thinking twins but I havent gotten far enough to plan out how large of one I need to go with... check out my little 77 toyota its in the early stages right now.... https://www.theturboforums.com/smf/index.php?topic=98760.0

    So I kept the car and I got a little bit of work done over the past year. I sold the other housing I built to fund makeing a Custom sheetmetal housing. Although I had it layed out, I never made a full prototype to test. I still have the stuff but would rather just do something I know will work. I Made my own 4 link and custom built a Strange housing :2thumbs:
    There easy to work with and customize. Also very stout compared to the other junk on the market.

    I can move it to builds if you would like. Nice vintage Chevy Build :2thumbs:

    I'm around and kicking. Destroyed everything behind the motor last fall. >:( Put back a basic combo but did not run down the track with it this year. Considering options for 2012 from mild (3 baby seat mod) to wild 4340 forged, fire breathing, pissed off and boosted :D
