    This is a current ongoing project. This 1973 crewcab started life as a rolling shell. Full frame off rebuild. the frame was blasted and painted and black inron. It has skyjacker 8" springs and Bilstein shocks at each corner. The front end is a Dana 60 outfitted with 4.56s and a power lock dif. The steering is from Off Road Unlimited and features crossover steering with the ram assist. The rear is a 14 bolt with 4.56s and a Detroit locker. Four wheel discbrakes and Hydro-boost slows it right down. It rolls on CenterLine 16.5 x 9.75 wheels with 39 X 15.5 X 16.5 Mickey Thompson Baja's. The engine is a blown injected 509. Started out with a gen VI 502 block, factory steel crank, Eagle h-beam rods, connected to JE pistons. Assembled with Speed-Pro rings and Federal Mogul bearings. A custom Comp Cams hydraulic roller with Crane lifter is spun by a factory timing set. The cylinder heads are Edelbrock oval ports ported and assembled by McKenzie Cylinder Heads. Comp roller rockers and push rods finish off the valvetrain. Induction consists of a oval port Edelbrock Victor manifold converted to injection. A custom elbow mounts a Accufab 75mm throttle body. A Vortech J-Trim supercharger pumps out 9psi of boost to keep things interesting. Ignition is all MSD. The injection is handled by a F.A.S.T. sequential controller. Cooling is handled by a Griffin radiator outfitted with twin Spal fans. The transmission is the ultra stout 4l80-e controlled by a T.C.I. controller mated up to a NP205 transfer case. The body has been all up dated with new GM sheet metal. The interior has been upgraded with later model bucket seats with the matching center console. The dash has been outfitted with Autometer Phantom gauges and a Clarion stereo. The whole cab has been Accumatted for noise control. Future upgrades call for new exhaust system to be built including 2-1/8 headers to let it breathe a little more and little bit higher stall in the converter. This was the hot rod I chose to build. More than a little excessive in power and size but a whole lotta fun to drive. And driven it gets, just about to roll 40,000 miles on it.
