Yeah I'm gonna have them do a 700r4 for me hopefully by march so that I can make it to CPP. I manage the Midas. I get the privaledge of going over to Lodi Trans and checking out all the cool rides that come in and yours was one that I poured over while it was up on the rack. Very nice job!

Delmo,
So you eliminate the mounting bracket from firewall to booster mount? Just bolt the booster direct to firewall. What was the one hole you had to drill? And last question. Does this get in any way of the stock steering column position?

This is a nice lil upgrade you did thanks for sharing!

Re: Nacho Truck

Yes I use the stock big hole for the booster, you may have to oversize it a little if needed. Make a template of the booster and transfer it to the firewall. No issues from my experience with steering column clearance.

It's really the biggest and best set up to go with if you have this identical set up.

Porterbuilt Bolt on body drop etc.

Re: Nacho Truck

mason, thanks for letting me molest one of Nacho's wheels yesterday so I could see how it sized up in the front of the 58 there.

Seeing pictures in the build thread is rad, but seeing nacho laid out in the flesh is a work of art.

Cant wait to see it rolling down the street!

Pound those rockstars Del.

Re: Nacho Truck

LOL, ya he owed me $15 bucks so I sold it back to the guy in Tijuana. No, last week was crazy with the Grand Nationals in town so I didn't get much done. Should have nacho wrapped up this week and I'll make sure I get some pics up. It's lookin good.

That's a piece that was smashed out and louvered on my home made mini louver die. I have a big Oak stump on castor wheels that I have carved out in different shapes to form that kind of stuff.
Believe or not I have been working, Nacho gets love but maybe not as much lately as it deserves. Here are the rear tubs waiting for mother nature to do her work.
