Re: LFD's low buck truck build!

i seen a couple of trucks where they put the turbo(s) under the bed right behind the cab or trough the bedfloor
its a little more complicated oiling the turbo (you either need a seperate tank and pump system or line from the engine to the turbo and a scavangepump back to the sump ) and some more piping to get the air to the intake , but you can use stock type exaust manifolds .
and it saves a lot of heat under the hood and in the cab , it doesnt lag as some nay sayers want you to believe

idea's for the trucks and the order of things to do are taking shape and get closer to being realized , a few more months and i be able to start building for real

i complete 2 of the trucks intoo running fashion one custom and one basicly stock the thirth will be sacrificed for parts
