Re: Syborg Twin Turbo

Good Morning All,

Last week Kenny took the bed over the Line-X Dealer.



The underside and topside have been sprayed for protection from road debris.



I was asked earlier what the little notches were for on the front of the bed.
These were put in to clear the hardware that attaches the rollbar legs to the cab.



Should have more pictures later in the week

Re: Syborg Twin Turbo

i may be wrong but im guessing something for the audio system or maybe a fuel cell...not sure, looks amazing though!! its amazing what a lil bit of line X can do! what would you reccomend tho, line x or rhino liner? ive heard line x can chip off from time to time. and im glad you coated the underside especially the comment on that so no road debris messes it up is an awesome statement showing that just kuz theres alot of time and money into it doesnt mean its gunna be a trailer queen or a garage floor queen. its actually going to be driven, like a vehicle should be!

Re: Syborg Twin Turbo

The drivers side box will be for a Sub if we go that route.

The benifit of line-x is that it can be sprayed a little thinner. Since this really isn't a work truck it doesn't need that really thick coat.

ps - yep i plan to drive this truck at least once on the Power Tour.

03-12-08 Update - More miles then a Vegas Hooker

Good Morning All,

The Turbos are done and look really nice.
Both Guy and Precision Turbo really took care of me.

Guy & I started talking and we realized these Turbos have been shipped via UPS so many time it's just not right.
So here is a really long story -- see if you make it to the end.


So way back on June 25, 2004 I purchased custom Turbos from Precision Turbo.
www.precisionturbo.net www.rockfordracecraft.com

Precision Turbo shipped them to Rockford Racecraft. - 140miles

After Rockford Racecraft looked them over, he drove them to Competition Fabrication - 51 miles
www.compfab.com

When the truck was completed at Comp Fab they headed to my Shop - 54 miles

About 4 months later I loaded truck w/Turbos and headed to Recovery Room Interiors to meet Kenny - 601 miles
www.recoveryroomrodinteriors.com

Kenny Hauls truck, motor & those Turbos back to his Shop in Arkansas - 413 miles
www.kdhotrods.com

A short while later Kenny Ships Turbos back to my shop - 592 Miles
www.sportmachines.com

Then I ship Turbos to Rockford Racecraft so they could Polished and Hi-Temp all the surfaces of the Turbos. - 93 miles

Now here's were it gets fun ( if you've read this far )

In order to Hi Temp Coat the center section of the Turbo's you have to send the center section to Precision Turbo so they can take it apart - 144 miles

Precision Turbo - disassembles Center Section and Ships it back to Rockford Racecraft - 144 miles

Rockford Racecraft High temp coats the center section and then ships it back to Precision Turbo - 144 miles

Precision Turbo Reassembles the Center Section and ships them Back to Rockford Racecraft - 144 miles

Rockford Racecraft puts everything back together and then ships them to Kenny Davis - 617 miles
( really I hope this is there last Journey )

Now that's a lot of miles -- how many not sure it's late.

Okay so here are the Turbo's and yep there in the new bed on the new line-x liner.
Note the center section is officially Hi-Temp Coated Black



The imperfections in the housing were tig welded prior to polishing.



Exhaust Housing were done in a silver finish.



Final Picture
yep - there they are sitting on that new line-x bed liner

Re: Syborg Twin Turbo

Good Day all,

Where coming down to the end with the motor build.

However, we still have a couple little more problems that needed to be resolved.



The problems only gets worse when you put the valve cover on.
So the tube will have to be removed from the inside of the valve cover.



Once tube is removed the valve cover will leak oil.
To keep the oil from leaking we installed an O-ring under the ARP bolt.



Guy also had to remove a little material from the Rocker itself.




Plenty of updates to come this week.
So keep your eye's open.

Re: Syborg Twin Turbo

Good Evening All,

I figured I would post the up pictures Sunday Night instead of Monday Morning.

I want to Thank the Guy's over at Line-X of Rogers Arkansas they did an outstanding job on the truck.
Line-X of NW Arkansas
2001 S 8th St
Rogers, AR 72758 ( 479.621.6262 )

The back of the cab has been coated since it will be exposed to the elements.



If your not an S10 guy you wouldn't notice how square the "B" pillar is.
It's hard to tell it's been modified.



Just a different view of the bed with the Turbo's testing out the bed liner.



More pictures to come this week.
