should have a little update tommorow.

[marlborosyclone]

Good Day All,

I would like to welcome our new Sponsor - Nitrous Express.
Brian, noticed the truck and said that we needed to work together and I agreed.



Nitrous Express "Next Generation Nitrous Systems" or brianh@nitrousexpress.com

Our plans are to build an Intercooler chillier similar to the kit Jerry offers for the Syclones.
However the new kit will be custom built to our Intercooler.




While were in there we figured we might as well add a little more go-go juice to the motor.
We still haven't decided which kit were going to use but I am certain Brian has something up his sleeve.



Guy has been steady working on the Motor.
Collecting parts and working on some old parts that needed some TLC.

Way back in the day (April 2002) I was able to locate a sheet metal Moroso 2 Piece main seal Oil Pan.
Trust me it was very hard to Find.




Dennis over at high speed welding trimmed the front cross member (August 2004) so we would be able
to remove the oil pan just in case there were problems with the motor. It's much easier to pull a pan then pull a motor.



Dennis added some Simple Bracing to the crossmember for Strength.



Guy at Rockford Racecraft has been steady working on the Motor.
He welded a new pick up to the oil pump to ensure proper oil supply.





The pan has been stripped down and it heading to Kenny's so we can put in the oil return lines.
Once were done with the pan it's heading back to Dave at Comp Fab so we can clean up all of the Welds.



Plenty more in store in the next few months.

Actually the body is on hold till the 19th when i head down to Kenny's. After that there going to get cranking on the body.

[95xtreme]

yeah those pans are rare... I had seen one a couple years ago but it was mangled.
Keep up the good work.

[MGSDime97]

All panels are NOS Stock except for the tailgate. I ordered a new one and ended up with one that said chevy on it. Anyone interested - cheap
