I'm thinking dual gates to keep it divided. And give me better placement. Ain't got this one done yet and I started collecting parts for a 417. Found a sweet deal on a Alum 6.2lblock and a 4" crank...... Or build a 388 with the sleeved alum 6.0 block.Hopefully next year.
Damm it's easy to get off track.

Nice truck! Not to get too off topic, but how did you get those hummer wheels on there? I was looking into doing them for my k20 (which has the same axles you got, semi float 14 and 8 lug 10 bolt) but the backspace is a killer. Also any details on the suspension setup?

I put 2inch spacers on the front. I need a set for the back, but they fit. Just a little skinny on the track with. I've read that with the dully front you don't need them. So when u put the 60 in the front I'll put them on the back. Also you can re center them for 100 ea.

Ordered a set of 40mm jgs wastegates. Wasn't sure what brand I was going to go with. I'm glad I called around. Talked the the guys at jgs for almost 40 minutes. Talked about Drag Racing, mud trucks, sand rails, cnc machines, tool making, hot chicks, and then turbo stuff. Great group of guys. Not just guys making parts, someone that cares. They got my money from now on.
As for the truck got all the piping welded up, just need to get wastegates on.
Drain and feed lines made. Thanks LJMS for a all in one turbo accessories for the borg. Worked out great.
Picked up a brand new set of 799's. Finished deburring them razor blades. Need to install Tooley duals.
Short block's together. But have to check piston to valve. Hoping not to take it apart again.
Been a good weekend

It'll just fill with mud. Lol
Plan is to run e85 and no cooler, just want to hear what some others have made. I'll put a meth kit on it if it needs.
And how effective is a intercooler half full of mud at say 20 mph?

Good looking rig! I'll be doing a twin setup in my K1500 Blazer, but it's getting slammed and caged 
Interested to see how it does with no I/c, I've seen quite a few setups without it. Trail truck? Tractor pulls or mud drags or anything fun!?

Just a all around fun truck. Mud bog, sand dunes, Hadn't thought about tractor pull, but the local county fair does a little pulling. But mainly it's for taking Hot Chicks for a ride at all the local bogs, and scaring the **** out of them. Lol

It's been down hill ever since I seen it the first time. Could sit and watch it over and over and over and over...... LMAO Mine should make 700 rwhp for now. End goal is 1000. That comes in "phase 2"
