Help clarify this for me because I used to do the marketing for a very innovative drag racing shop and we just started building the entire front end and sub frame as one piece

The same reason Detroit Speed does it. I have an interest in the 2nd gen truck...just trying to understand the whole thing

Thanks Joe
I would say it's 'cost' related. Lots more guys can afford to piece something together when the funds allow & be able to enjoy their truck while doing so vs the few that could pop for an entire frame @ once.

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.
