Re: Project Thread:Nothin Normal

Awesome truck, also saw it on SSM. Budnik, Colorado Customs, and B.A.D (Billet Accesories Direct) are the only places I know of that build a rim over 10 inches wide. I had mine built by B.A.D they are 20x13 for my '00 GMC. They were the most reasonable and I liked their wheel design ( Maulers). They did not make the Mickey Thompson tires when I got mine built or I would have gone wider. Maybe on the next project, if I ever finish the ones I have. Love to see some more pics, keep up the good work.

those are for support but are there for my exhaust to run through. i will have cutouts at the front of the system and then a full exhaust routed out the back

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

Great. Excellent. Supurb.

Loved the engine movie and the rear bag/9" steup. Good luck with the rest of the project.

Can't wait for more updates!! Thanks for sharing what you've done. It inspires us all.
