Re: SloMotion Build - Winter Project

So here is one old man's take on a relatively unusual truck.

At the risk of boring everyone, a few more pics of the "winter project" dually. It ran over time a little but there were days when other things were higher on the list.

I don't know which way I like it best...with the full fences, or the short ones, so I switch off when the mood strikes.

The engine is all but done. I switched out the 390 cfm Holley for the 500 cfm Edelbrock, and it really runs great. Not especially fast, but for what it is, it's fun to drive. The T5 made a huge difference in the drivability. The intake is heated, but the "U" turn under the carb in the manifold is a result of not useing the heat during the summer days here in Maine. (All four of them!)
