Does anyone know how much they weight? They do look huge and look a lot heavier, this truck has 22s and they look like 20s.

I like it. I still am not totally sold on the NNBS looks however this build does look good.

Couple of quick questions... I see that you do not have the EVAP purge line hooked up. Are you deleting this? I see that you blocked off (cut) the port on the FAST intake near the alt so I figured you are deleting the system.

How close is the the belt from touching the WP under the intake tube (clearance between the two)?

Also, just an observation, make sure the blue O-ring is seated fully on the oil add neck...looks a little squished.

Nice work, I sure bet the owner will apreciate the new found power!

Yes it was deleted, the port on the intake would let the intake fully seat, clearance is very little, it almost touches, probably like 1 or 2mm

Cool. Yea, I know fully about that port and what needs to be done to make it work I cut my bracket a little more than you did and also cut that port by 1/2 to make it work.

Nice work!

well truck was taken to the track on this past wensday(first time this truck sees the track) it had the 22 ss wheels in the front and 28inch hosiers out in the back, no weight reduction was done to the truck, and it ran a 12.3@109 breaking the build driveshaft right after the 1/8th mile it also broke the trans tail so its back to working on it, it is also going to get some QA1 shocks all around and some caltracs, 60 foot times were 1.69 it has a better 60 foot time in her also hopefully we can fix everything to take it to the track next wensday
