C6-57 pickup update....

[ironworks]

Well we have slowed down on the C6-57 truck project, but we are seeing some progress finally. The truck will be mostly in paint next week. We dynoed the engine at Westech. The engine made 592 hp at 6000 and 584 ft lbs at 4100 rpm. That thing rips, it made 500ft lbs from the start of the dyno run at 3500 rpms on.

The exhaust is finally done. It looks great. We should be powder coating the frame soon and starting reassembly pretty soon.

We slowed down on the build progress due to the coverage that Truckin mag has done and will do on the build. We have had about 25 pages of coverage in Truckin in the past 4 months. They are covering everything from the chassis fab to the upholstry.

Novanutcase will post some pics here soon for you guys. My new computer is lacking the resize software as of yet.

Thanks guys Rodger

Oh My God ! I don't know what that means - but I want it !


Wow, that chassis came out awesome guys ! And the motor looks wicked too with that touch of red !

REALLY can't wait to see the frame in paint and all mocked up.

Is the exterrior of the engine painted, brushed, powder, or some other treatment ??

Excellent job !

I have not done anything to the outside of the engine it is stock for now. But I will begin detailing the engine in the next few weeks.

The transaxle has been powder coated and the torque tube will be also.

Thanks guys
