Romell R Posted September 15, 2010 Author Share Posted September 15, 2010 QUESTION...WHY THE MSD MARINE SYSTEM? Well as its really the same system , the only differance is the color and it just has water resistant connections. And did you notice its the AL-2 version?(And I just happened to have it when I started this project) I decieded instead of going out and buying a new one I'd save myself $259.00 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crazyjim Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 A very pretty engine, Rommel and I hope it runs as good as it looks. Are those carburators on top or some kind of fuel injection? You ever going to finish that truck? I think the last I saw was the working lights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kit Basher Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 Holy Cow! I just did an Aftashox marathon! I found your wrecker last nite at almost bedtime. I ended up missing some sleep, 'cause I could't stop looking until I had been through the whole thread! And well worth it too! Tonite I find this thread in your reply to another thread, and I've been through all of this one too! Your builds are informative and entertaining, not to mention downright amazing! You may notice I'm using a lot of exclamation marks! It's impossible not to! Thanks for sharing all this with us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's lots of tips I could use like using aluminium panels to create dents and the turbo set up looks awesome. Then there's your big rig with lights!!! Very cool work......
