Very interesting build it turned out very nice......not to pollute your thread and/or question but just for my curiosity sake where did the $130K in parts come from. I am trying to wrap my head around what conceivably drove the cost up that much.....

With that being said it is definitely a masterpiece and GLWS

The parts are all top shelf and all work was done by DMC Racecars. The car alone as purchased was $38k before any work or build was done.
Call Tom Nelson of Nelson Competition Engines and ask how much to build, install, plumb and tune a TTLS. It will be over 50k.

Thanks for the compliments. Most people cannot relate to the cost of building a top shelf car but if you have you realize just how quickly it ads up.

Very true. I will not post the engine details online but will go over any details & questions a serious buyer has.
There is over 300 hours of billable work at DMC alone and at $125hr, that adds up quickly.

One & only price drop.
Trades accepted are a NICE OL 10.5 car, 2013 & up Ford crewcab 4x4 diesel plus cash or a drag radial chevy. (Real x275, ODR or Limited street car not some 10 second hooptie on radials)

Amazing car and a great price for what you are getting. I see other LS swap older cars with not nearly the attention to detail or badass parts in them going for almost the same price. Old classic+LS swap = $$$$$$$

Do you have a build thread on this car?
