I researched those for my Malibu. They're not too far (road trip distance) but never could decide. Please post up (or PM) your experience/opinion once you move forward.

Nice, that should be great. I’m curious about how the motor is going to perform. In the near future I’ll be in the market for a new motor for my chevelle. Please keep us informed.

Very nice.:metal:

I am not a Podiatrist by no means.
I can see foot issues in your son's near future. ;)

What's the dyno graph look like?

What's the plan to get the power to the ground? Replacing tires is going to get expensive.

If you don’t mind me asking, where did your son get the bed cut down? A shop or did you guys do it yourself?

I wish I could take credit for it. A guy in Stockton did it in one day, drove it up one day and picked it up the next $4000 Start to Finish. Superior workmanship

lol he probably learned that shortening technique on the bed here on the board. There was a guy here closer to 10 years ago that did his that way, that thread blew everyone’s mind at the time. That was the first time any of here had seen it. It does make a lot nicer finished product with way less feet of weld.
