This has been quite the progect for me. I have been busy to say the least. We had to mod the chassis to fit the engine in it and total reconstruction of the cage to fit me. We started assembly tonight so i figured it at least started to look like a race car. Hope you like the pics.

Sheesh Brad, ya wanna go fast or something?? Looks great man!
 
Awesome Brad! Been wondering what you had in the works! Can't wait to see it at the track.
 
Is that a factory marine or industrial oil pan? What is the capacity?
Thanks
 
Thanks. The capacity is about 15qts if i remember correctly. Its a cummins marine pan. Im sure i will piss myself the first run all out. Its really going to be a learning curve for me. I think its best if i sneak up on it and get comfortable with the car before a all out pass.
 
playin with gears should get you a nice top end, and the torque down low still be able to get ya off the line. one turbo for now ?
 
:drool1: :drool1: :drool1: :rockwoot: Wow that is nice! :bow: That transmission cover is beautiful, heck the whole thing is beautiful. Looking very good Brad. Congratulations, I know it's been a big project. When do you think it will be ready to make its first pass? :pop:

Are you going to keep the blue and purple paint scheme?

Thats a stemco low profile hub cap for the front axle on a class 6-8 truck. Homemade flange welded on the cover.

Looks like a lot of fun!

Any predictions on when it will make it's maiden voyage down the track?
 
very very clean!

What did you do for the water inlet and outlet, just make a plate and thread a -16 an fitting into it?
 
I would like to thank a few people that have gave me good advise and support along the way. First of all my lovely wife Dana and 2 daughters Kim and Breanna, Steve Qkiss, Bob Lewis, Ryan (stock600), Colin (CBtoyz) and all of you guys and girls for the positive feedback. THANK YOU!!!!
