Re: Slosh Tubz SEMA 2015 Build "BOOSTED BERTHA"
Sorry Mike but you ARE officially an "interior guy". Looks like fun and I'm sure it'll look fantastic when you're done.

Re: Slosh Tubz SEMA 2015 Build "BOOSTED BERTHA"
Well I am still plugging away at the interior but in the mean time we have decided that the Atomic Injection would not run this Mast Motorsports 6.2 and the Magnuson Supercharger to the full extent of its capabilities. So in my effort to find the right solution to the problem I called on my friends Aaron Kauffman and Jonathan Mansour from Gas Monkey, they came down and went over everything with me and pointed me towards the Holley Dominator.....so here we go ! I spent a couple days taking out everything else we had done to get it ready for my buddy Brock Payton to do the wiring. We started Sunday morning getting everything laid out and I have to say this is an AMAZING user friendly set up almost everything so far has been plug and play !
Holley Dominator for the win ! |

Re: Slosh Tubz SEMA 2015 Build "BOOSTED BERTHA"
We started under the hood plugging in the Fuel injection harness, then the cam position sensors and the idle air sensor . The next step was plugging in the main harness to it to start figuring out where to route it all

Re: Slosh Tubz SEMA 2015 Build "BOOSTED BERTHA"
What's the part number on your batt box. I'm having a hard time finding the right one. Looking good Mike!

Re: Slosh Tubz SEMA 2015 Build "BOOSTED BERTHA"
good place for the battery especially when the car is aired out and out of power
ask gasmonkey garage how that feels (it happened to them shortly before the truck had to drive to the auctionblock) would be a good idea to add a power connection for a boosterpack under the hood

Re: Slosh Tubz SEMA 2015 Build "BOOSTED BERTHA"
looks good enough , as long as the edges are good and rounded so the leather doesnt get cut when stretched over the edges or rubbing against the doormetal during driving
the foam and leather covers a lot

Re: Slosh Tubz SEMA 2015 Build "BOOSTED BERTHA"
Really nice Mike .
I always preferred the look of a bench seat in these trucks . I will use my original bench seat, and fab a pull down arm rest in on a 40/60 split configuration .
