Mike and your broad team, I have nothing of value to add to improve your build, but feel the urge to just say again: Thank you for sharing your build, inspiring many of us to stretch our own imaginations and up our games.

I just shake my head in awe.

Three weeks before I am in Searcy, then Fayetteville.......:metal:

looks great
might need to add a few pipeholders here and there to prevent it from vibrating and break over time but i guess you get to that later

Re: Slosh Tubz SEMA 2015 Build "BOOSTED BERTHA"
 
:four::five: this is how it must feel after you plumb hard lines that look that good. outstanding!!

This dude Clem of Tuba Trucks is Awesome, if you haven't had the pleasure to meet him you need to get to his upcoming party and meet him !

Clem came over last night, brought dinner and we wet sanded and buffed most of the frame.

Also picked up the Flowmaster exhaust , I had it Jet Hot coated. I cant wait to hang it all !

Well I got a little more polishing done and started bolting up that Flowmaster exhaust last night. I am now a firm believer in V-bands and the one from Ace Race Parts are top notch and a good bargain. I am happy with my first exhaust job, I now know the things to look for and the things to do different next time but overall I am pleased with it.
