WOW! I'd have a moment if I saw something like that under a rig! What's this thing dyno out at and is this the rumored Brazel's inspired Bonneville RV Record Speed chaser?

It would be great to see this on a 32 foot W22 with a push button Ahrens shifter in full SSC regalia. Of course we would want to run Z rated tires!

If anything could do it, the 8.1 Vortec would be my choice.

I turboed two Camero's and a couple of Corvettes.

If I wasn't a poor retired old F**T.................IN A HEARTBEAT!

Does the beast have an Intercooler John?

How much boost is it running?

Is it still "Street Legal"............Scratch that! Who cares!!

Just something we found that really caught our attention. Not something we have done....YET!

Would definitely take the right customer as it's not exactly a "cheap" upgrade and would require running premium grade gasoline. Might also require some internal engine mods to maintain reliability...

That being said...who wants to be our guinea pig?!

Thank you, I'll keep it all in the back of my mind since it's not on your front burner.

Reliability is the key word here.

Unfortunately no interest from anyone to do it :(

We've had a couple people interested in swapping a Duramax into their W22 though...
