Home made race twins , Finally running !!!!!

[TrentNell]

So any updates?

She is on the battery charger now, full of fluids , just need to hookup the lift pump wiring up and go get 5 gallons of fuel , should fire it up later when i get back out there :happy2: .

I still cant drive it , I have a brake line leaking on the back end , It must have got damaged when I was working back there , but if i can get it running i can replace the brake line easily tomorrow and maybe take it for a spin :thumb:

Just cap off the rear brake line and go do some wicked burnouts. Don't you have some old worn out tires hanging around you don't need??? :joker:

May be a good time to plumb in a rear cutout for heating up the rear tires :cool2:

Man Trent I wish you were about 1200 Km (500mi) closer to me I would love give you the chance to build set up like that for a LLY!!!! Looks awesome I am jealous!!! I am coming through Utah in April and I hope I can come and take a look at your animal!!!!

 

[TrentNell]

well she is alive !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :happy2:

only thing so far i don't like is when i bolted the motor mounts i sucked them down way tight so it would be stiff , and they are pretty much solid mounted in the video you can here the dash rattling a bit from it , when revving the motor it doesn't even budge , not nec a bad thing for a race truck though !
