C'mon kids gather round,
there's a new sensation hitting town,
It's moving straight, low to the ground,
it'll pick you up when your feeling down.

Lookin' good!
Is the exhaust fully welded yet or just tacked?
What cam and heads have you chosen?

Heads are street elims 44x37.5 and cam will be TCS20
we still have to pull it apart at the merge and weld it all up and polish it then weld the merge up but we are going to move onto the intercoolers and make sure all fits b4 we finalise anything. I haven't looked into pushrods yet (the ones you built were nice) but I have a set of autocraft 1:25 rockers for it. The rest of the internals are scat H beams and CB nitrated, shot peened etc 78mm crank. My members rides has all the details. Will keep you all posted.

Looking good T54....
Looks to be a very similar spec to my own (2276), but Im thinkin about mounting my turbo and intercooler over the transaxle....
But you said you still had to mount your intercooler..... How you going to do that with this set-up?
Im always open to other ideas...

FUCH your early!
