Favors my friend, owner of the machine shop's son owed pinky basically with his life. He had a heart attack and pinky is the one who got him to the hospital.

Well final comp on that motor was 11.6:1-ish and if you know Pinky that 8k is pretty understandable(valves floating is his red line), especially with titanium involved. Minor detail there is only 22R, carburated so that is also how....

Also that is the third motor we put together that week and that week end was the last week end before he left for 2 months to work. He put in 371 hours in one month, 36 hours on one stretch with 5 hours sleep than a 21 hour day after that. Once through that he had an 18 hour drive home, the kid is a machine, and i know that is not....um...well...you know.


Parts on the truck as follows
high comp motor
dual-friction CF clutch
turbo tranny
dual t-cases
rear; chromoly ring and pinon, 5.29s, spool
front; SAS, cryomoly ring and pinion, 5.29s, spool, chromoly birfields inner and outter, x over with hydro assist
5" all pro front springs
monster 4" marlin rear springs w/anti wrap
3" body
longfield winch, 10klbs
2" lift shackles
42" tsl super swampers
Perfect straight body with slight oxidation on maroon paint and minor decal pealing/fading
and many other little things.....

overall about 12k invested so 7k sounds resonable, no?
