All I want is what it costs to drive that truck 500 miles. I could probably finish my chassis for that.

Its been done soooo many times...its just a "Look At Me" thing. Besides the fact there are carbs hidden under those hats and the blowers are massively underdriven. For the time and money spent he could have just mounted a 14-71 with triple dominators front dist drive with a mag and run it on alky.

Eh...I don' much care for it. He obviously has a lot of talent (or the money to pay for someone else's) but speaking just for myself I'd go for a lot less EVEN IF I had the money and desire to go "all out" in my build. Interesting to see though.
