    Simply outstanding! COMPLETELY different and it looks perfect. Every detail, everything goes together perfectly and it draws you into that manifold. Precision art. Great job.

    The sled has come a very long way since The Rumble in the Desert this past January.

    Damn that sled looks great...

    Updated PICS Under The Hood - Billet Technology

    Well gang I have been working on the ride these last couple of days.. I have added more goodies under the hood. Billet Technology has decided to sponsor the ride so I received the strut covers and other pieces to make it complete.

    Holy crap! that's unbelievable! I REALLY like that.

    Just a suggestion to complete it maybe. That 90* off the throttle body to the CAI tube. Can you do that either in silver or something polished? And then either braided or shield the rest of the black hoses and wires in silver.

    Oh yea, maybe convince BT that you really really need your avatar on a fuse box cover.
