Out with the old.....


In with the new... Turn key Engines 585 HP LS3 and TKO-600. And a little bit of tire in there as well!



New Speedway mod Lite floater with Wilwood 13" brakes.


Mini-tubbed the bed to get the wider tires int eh back and then finally got around to bed lining it for a nice clean finish.


345/30R19's on Forgeline's on the front. Full turning radius, no modifications to the body or suspension, and 13.8" of rubber on each side!





A nice comparison of the original front tires and the new front tires.

I am in love. What do you plan to do about inner fenders? I am guessing it will be at Columbus as well?

WOW! love everything about this truck

[WILWAXU]

AWESOME!

Amazing! Getting 14" of rubber to turn in the front is quite an achievement

What are you using for a steering rack? With that much front rubber, so you have to update the rack or pump or anything to make it comparably drivable?

Love the truck!

I see you have a cooler in front of the radiator...what is the cooler hooked up to? Oil, trans, ps?

The truck will be at Columbus and running in the Autocross Sponsor Shoot Out. No plans yet for inner fenders. Probably run the truck with out them for a while. If we get time we will fab something up for it.

No plans just yet. Probably use it in something else down the line. We have enough shop projects that I'm sure it will find a home shortly.

We were a little worried about the drivability with that big of front tire on the truck. We changed the power steering pulley to get a more out of the pump. Under tight slalom situations, there was a slight lag in the power steering. The pulley change took care of that. Otherwise you can't tell the difference between the 255's that were on there before. Steering feel is the same. We drove the truck 90 miles to Blackhawk Raceway yesterday and then put 50+ hard track laps on it. Steering feels great and the truck sticks like crazy!

It is a power steering cooler.
