Looks perfect but unfortunately you left out some important information. What kind of drop? I really like those wheels. What size are they and who makes them? What size tires?

It is a 2/4 drop from Western Chassis. The wheels are 18x9's. They are Epic wheels. American Racing makes them. They have now discontinued them. The tires are Nitto NT 455's. 255's up front, 295's out back. I would like to see how my other wheels look like with the drop. They looked awesome before the drop, but with the direction I'm goin on the truck, they just didn't really serve any purpose, so I put them on the other truck.

Could be 1/8 times. Looks like a V6. Only see one exhaust pipe hanging down.

Yeh, it's a v-6. One of the fastest V-6's on some site that he is on. Purely for V-6 Firebirds and Camaros. He is lookin for some mid 11's next time he goes to Houston. And yes, the 8.4 is the 1/8th. Him and his dad own Abbott Racing Heads. They are the ones that will be doin my head work. In fact, those pics are takin at their shop. Tryin to talk them into sponsoring this site. They can do magic when it comes to porting heads and building engines. When my heads/cam is completed, I'll post up some video of the dyno, and dyno #s. Then it's on to the bored, stroked, and forged 6.0. Then you will be able to see what them boys can do with an LS-based engine!!
