Marty I hope you don't have any problems with the Precision turbos. Garrett pulled out of Precision "long story". So getting anything from them anymore is impossible.

But they look killer! :thumbsup:

So far we haven't had any problems with Precision. They have turned around everything same day. I'd say there doing good by me.

Good Day all,

Where coming down to the end with the motor build.

However, we still have a couple little more problems that needed to be resolved.

The problems only gets worse when you put the valve cover on.
So the tube will have to be removed from the inside of the valve cover.

http://www.syborgtwinturbo.com/album...03_05_RR_1.jpg

Once tube is removed the valve cover will leak oil.
To keep the oil from leaking we installed an O-ring under the ARP bolt.

Guy also had to remove a little material from the Rocker itself.

Plenty of updates to come this week.
So keep your eye's open.

Good Evening All,

I figured I would post the up pictures Sunday Night instead of Monday Morning.

I want to Thank the Guy's over at Line-X of Rogers Arkansas they did an outstanding job on the truck.
Line-X of NW Arkansas
2001 S 8th St
Rogers, AR 72758 ( 479.621.6262 )

The back of the cab has been coated since it will be exposed to the elements.

If your not an S10 guy you wouldn't notice how square the "B" pillar is.
It's hard to tell it's been modified.

I am really impressed with the quality of work Kenny can produce, considering the shop he has... I am sure Marty will fill everyone in on this a little.

I disagree it's champagne

http://www.syborgtwinturbo.com/album...b_Thrash_6.jpg

The Original Concept was to create a Factory Prototype.
So in keeping with the Concept the Paint had to be applied like it would at the Manufacture.

http://www.syborgtwinturbo.com/album..._Thrash_24.jpg

Keeping the details throughout the paint job.

http://www.syborgtwinturbo.com/album..._Thrash_35.jpg

Still to be applied is the Satin Silver to the inside of the bed & Bed sides.
Watch for More updates this week.
