Temporary Power Plant

With my motor being down and having a tremendous amount of things going on, I wont be getting the pleasure of running my truck for a while.

However, my buddy has a 56 Chevy truck that was a single turbo LS and it is in need of a cage and rear chassis work. We have come together and are putting his now twin 69mm turbo power plant in my truck. He will be leaving his 56 with me to have a local chassis shop back half and cage it, similar to my set up.

We had to redo a few things in my chassis like cut the motor plate free and lower it so the back of the intake would clear the fire wall. Had to move the alternator bracket which was on the frame. Some minor stuff that just eats time.

But we should have it up and running for a dyno session on Thursday, then to the track on Saturday so he can make license passes.

He has a couple sponsorships and my truck will be at the Vegas LS fest in one of his sponsors booths and running the new truck class.

It will be interesting to say the least.
