Pro Tech Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 John, doing a great job! It seems each build you do you raise the bar even higher. Nice job also on your t-fitting, how much would you charge me (per unit) for 3000 pieces? LOL........ Charlie Pro Tech Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Cranky Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 The fact that you know where all of these things go and run to is impressive enough for me but also that when you are done it looks like a version of the real thing but in scale. I think you are a magician, John. Pure and simple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comp1839 Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 john, you may want to swap those blower pulleys around. the big one goes on the crankshaft. your setup would be under driving the blower. very nice build. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Cranky Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 Mind blowing. You obviously know the vehicles you build intimately, through hands-on or research. Regardless, these builds are real eye candy treats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danno Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 Wow! Long time since I had a chance to check on the progress. Wow! Your builds bankrupt the language, John. Just Wow! I keep thinking "Wow!" and I can't seem to get past that. Build on, brother! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eviltwincustoms Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 John I have been lurking in on your build and have to say you my man... have a daunting task if you plan on wrapping this project up in your usual Build time frames. Question, what is that on your Roots blower toward the back on each side? Is that the injection ports for the NOS? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
