Question: In the first posts it appears you made new upper shock mounts for the front XV Motorsports suspension. Am I seeing this correctly and if so was this done to lower the ride height or for other reasons? I'm contemplating their front suspension for my project and their normal ride height has always seemed a bit high. I do realize your build is very low.

Any pictures of the rear suspension installed.

Great build.

If you look at the mounts I fabbed they have both the original (XV) height holes and a lower set, Ill do the same on the rear when I get to that part .
This gives us the look we are after with the car but also we can put it back up to the height XV designed their suspension to run at,for when the customer wants to play.

Shane,
Thanks for the response on the front suspension. That is a great solution for the ride height. I still wonder if the XV front would physically fit Air Ride/Ride Tech shockwaves?

One of my favorite builds. I need to look at the Cuda you're doing also.

Looks like a Tom Nelson Twin to me.... and if so.... he has his TT's made so that they can be symmetrical (or whatever it should be called)... BTW -- NOT saying that you're wrong... cause I really don't know - but that looks like a TNR billet intake etc so was thinking maybe that the turbos are his "new" versions?

Wow, talk about eagle eyes! I wonder what would happen if one was making boost & the other was making vacuum. Who wins?

Assuming matching rpm and exhaust flow on each bank......basically you would have a naturally aspirated motor;)

i figured they were but like i said, im assuming you just have the housings on there for mockup and the center cartridge will get changed because that wheel is pitched the wrong direction :thumbsup:
