Mean truck there. Details on the engine and suspension?

**Captainfab** · 05-24-2015, 11:34 PM

That's pretty impressive

We need more info on this truck

383 Stroker · 05-25-2015, 01:59 AM

It has a 565ci BBC, TH400, 9" rear end. It's a Ladder bar suspension. Ran 5.69@121mph on that pass.

To put that in perspective for us 1/4milers

(1/8 ET + 0.22)/ 0.655

That's a 9.0 quarter if it's geared for 1/4's

Nice!

Love the way that truck looks. Why the chrome door handles? LOL they stick out like a sore thumb. Sweet truck

How did you guys do the "SS" style scoopy-things on the front bumper? Thats a nod to the Silvy SS/TBSS/Gibbs trucks I assume.

383 Stroker · 05-26-2015, 10:06 PM

It's a aftermarket bumper cover that comes with the scoops made into it.

Hollow65 · 05-26-2015, 10:16 PM

Nitrous motor? That thing scoots regardless. Very nicely done.

383 Stroker · 05-27-2015, 12:17 AM

Yes, it has a 300 shot on it... Leaving on 50% on the progressive controller... Runs 6.40's on motor.
