Haha i could only dream of driving the race truck..........actually, now that i think about it i probably dont want to do that. it will only make me want to build one as well and this damn sport is expensive!!!
Promise you, you will never wipe the smile off once you start driving it either.
He picked up Blackie unfinished and not fine tuned and every time I talk to him I can see his smile thru the phone:happy2: Congrats, hope to see some pics when its done too:thumb:

Don't let Daryl fool you , he drove the race truck once ............................. but i was hooked to it with my side by side towing it out of the shop :rofl:
So last night i was puttin steves stock bumper back on his truck and built new bumper brackets for it (since we cut them off for the prerunner bumper i built him) and we went out for a ride in his truck with a s472. all i can say is HOLY CRAP!!! that thing gets with it! now im really excited for these twins! i know i wont be as fast but hell, its still quicker than i am now plus i wont be smokin everyone and their brother out on the road.
Now, i got a question. Those that have put the trubo drain back into the vavle cover (which is the way ill be doing it), how did you keep the metal shavings from droppin in the head? vaseline/grease on the drill bit? vacuum up next to the hole?

I took the valve cover off but the engine was out of the truck and torn town a bit that day. Look at the pics in my albums for placement. I would consider pulling off at least the upper and then you can capture everything. That rib may chunk off but at least it would settle at the bottom.
The twins ARE friggen AWASOME and thats on a small tune. My buds ask and I say remember going from the SBC to DMAX? Same thing all over again :thumb:

I may reconsider putting the drain in the valve cover. A friend of mine did this and it pushed oil out of the seals on his S475 on Trent's kit when he ran it hard.

Yeah, ive been using your pics as reference on that stupid little rib, i think i can move it over a hair and miss it, im jsut worried about the drill shaving or if i do chunk it off. to pull the upper cover though, i think i t would be pretty close to the same amount of work as pullin the starter and drillin the upper pan
Haha i dont think they can get here fast enough! im jsut glad steve never floored it on his big tune so i would be itchin to have that kind of power too lol. 500-550 is plenty for me lol :happy2:
interesting. LB7 or LLY? old kit or new kit?
X2 I find it hard to blame it as the cause , its a far better flowing way to drain the oil and its hard to say if the drain is at fault . I have ran both ways on my own truck and have customers both ways , haven't heard of a complaint yet , but I didn't hear about Reece's either so............................
no no no no no lol. if it aint happen on #2 or with the current heavy ass weight my truck is at, i aint gunna push it unless you would like to contribute to my motor fund as well?? :rofl: maybe guy will give us a discount for doin two motors at once lol
thats what i really figured. you would really have to fill that valve cover up fast to make it do that and there is a big void in there to fill
