motor in picture lost a rod bearing so im in the winter process of putting the new one together , should be extra 100hp and maybe get the front tires right up off the ground , never got to even spray it

no doubt that you invest a lot of money but it is a great satisfaction to see them finished

Here's a picture of my truck back when I first got it about 4 years ago. Just bought a cab to replace all the unseen rust on this one. Hopefully going to get it swapped sometime this year.
