Are you going to reclock the PC? Never seen it routed up like that before.

That's one of the bigger ones, the F2. With a cog belt drive.

Couple steps up from a D1. He'll be making 4 digits with it's all said & done.

I think he's referring to it pointing upward like in photos...

Yes the volute will be reclocked. It's not supposed to be pointing up.

Motor is installed, but I've run into two minor issues with fitment. I'll probably pull it back out fix those issues and put it back in tomorrow.

Thing looks crazy sick with this new wheel combo. The rears are 15x12 double beadlocked alumastars with a 29.5x10.5 ET Drag, fronts are the same ones I had but I sent them back to Bogart to get anodized black. Here are some pics....

Looks great! I think at this point, lots of people have high expectations of the truck! I know I do.

I dont recall, are all your wiring issues fixed?

I honestly have no idea what to expect. I'll have a better idea when I figure out what it's gonna weigh. That to me is the biggest unknown at this point.

I really don't know how much power it's gonna make either. I'm pretty sure it will be over 1000hp at the tires, but how much over is the question.

With the current gearing and tire combo, it would trap 170 at 8000 rpm with about 8% converter slip. Will it have the power to go 170???? I have no idea.

Oh I know it's an F2 and makes my D1 look like a baby LOL. I was just under the impressions for proper oiling or something all procharger had to have the volute at a 6 o'clock position or close to that.
