Re: Isn't this cool or what!
On the temp gauge you could put an explosion or something on the hot.

Nice little detail!
Make sure you post pics when you do the volcano on the temp gauge and lightning bolt on the amp meter and the old oil can pic on the pressure gauge

Re: Isn't this cool or what!
Sweet that's pretty cool looks great
Nice work it is defiantly the little touches that set the trucks apart from other peoples. Keep up the good work.

Re: Isn't this cool or what!
I can get it up to 130mph with 308s spinning 5k so yah prob would go 145 but I have 373s now so Prob end up topping at 125 without the overdrive. But I need at least 50 more hp to make that speed come a lil sooner with less distance lol
