we will see....I built the motor to be 700 to 800hp depending on boost...ive had 400hp in this truck before with a 454....and 275 with the t pi roller motor...I really think the differential won't hold up...planning a 9 inch Ford next

It depends on how you hold your phone when you take the initial picture. If you always take the picture with your phone sideways, bottom of phone pointed towards your right hand, the pictures will upload in the correct orientation.

Great progress on the truck! The engine sounds like it will be a ton of fun

Nice.

Check the door gap/fit at the cowl and the front fender too while you're there. It's alarming how inconsistently out of wack these are.

Looks good!
