      I know those tires suck but it's hard to get decent tires here, they only sell these. With all the weight up front and this truck not having a brake proportioning to the rear dependant on load makes it a suicide machine in the wet

      Twin,
      That is sick. Specs on motor? I like the stance, old school and mean as hell. Nice.

      Just a simple forged 355, nothing spectacular. I still have some supercharger stuff, twin intercoolers and a blowthrough carb box lying around, as well as some TFS Kenny Duttweiler series 195cc heads, I may slap those on to pep it up a little. Will need a new tranny too since the little 355 smoked the 2nd gear on the TH400

      Nice combo. That is going to be fun when you're done. What kind of SCer and blow through are you using?
      Do you have a build thread?

      No build thread, haven't started on it yet. Gotta fixsome rust issues in the firewall 1st (from brake booster flexing, seams opened now I hate rust).still have to finish my SCed IROC & trans am 1st (have build thread on the TA), then I'll get working on the truck. SC will probably be a P600B since that's what I have the brackets and all for. Intercoolers are small 2.5" in and outlets, an F body dual system from the 4th gen P600B kit. I used to put quite a bit of miles on the truck, kinda sad it's down now.

      Looks like you have a few kinked hoses that need to be modified

      Thanks Tig! I am installing a KP components 4-link modified to work with coilovers, an extra long adjustable panhard bar, new C-section, and chassis connectors. It has required a lot of fab work! I have also been stripping and painting everything I touch (very time consuming!). I have been taking pics of the build up and haven't had time to post them..... Every free moment I'm in the garage! I will try to post them over Christmas break. I'll start a build thread on FSC ;)

      Very cool setup. Just checked out your thread a little bit. That's an interesting way to solve the issue of how to mate the T56 to the transfer case. Glad to see it can be done with some ingenuity (and a big checkbook)!

      I had all the parts a few years back to do the same thing, but gave up on the idea due to slightly changing direction and wanting to keep the weight down. Of course mine was a 2wd to begin with...

      Anyway, that's a sweet ride. Would love to get a ride in it someday!!!
