Pat Muhgooch Posted August 24, 2011 Report Share Posted August 24, 2011 started as a near stock 520 with no engine or trans that I got for a 32" tv after I totaled my hardbody. We have been working on it a bit here and there so I would like to see what people think so far. My parents thought it would make a nice decoration and the final plan is something like this Quote Link to comment
wayno Posted August 24, 2011 Report Share Posted August 24, 2011 Looks like you might have done this before, looks good so far. 521 Johnny took the rockers off like you have, he went with a rotory, whats your power plant going to be? Quote Link to comment

wildmaninid Posted August 24, 2011 Report Share Posted August 24, 2011 Not usually a fan of cutting up dattos, but you are doing quite the job...I would love to see a titan v8 under that hood! Quote Link to comment
67 411 Posted August 24, 2011 Report Share Posted August 24, 2011 Looks great man. I also think a titan v8 would be awesome. Keep the oic's coming! Quote Link to comment
Pat Muhgooch Posted August 24, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2011 thanks and a v8 would be nice but, I am going to keep a stock hood. And I am doing a 13b swap also. I am just the grunt work on the truck though. I have to thank Draggers Alley for the awesome work and thought. Quote Link to comment

Pat Muhgooch Posted October 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2011 I am thinking about putting a 4.3L Chevrolet v6 in insted of the 13B. Quote Link to comment
]2eDeYe Posted October 11, 2011 Report Share Posted October 11, 2011 Nice looking truck :cool: The 4.3 is a good motor. Are you going with a Vortec? Quote Link to comment
Pat Muhgooch Posted October 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2011 no just a late 80's model with a carb. 200-250 hp should be enough power lol Quote Link to comment
bonvo Posted October 11, 2011 Report Share Posted October 11, 2011 good engine choice but i see fitment issues with how narrow the frame is either way 4.3 or 13b i approve Quote Link to comment
Pat Muhgooch Posted October 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2011 The frame is set low so width is no issue. My only problem is height. Anyone know how tall a 22R is? Quote Link to comment
drastic520 Posted October 12, 2011 Report Share Posted October 12, 2011 That is bad ass man!!!! Are those wheels titan steelies? I like the look. Did anything with the bore size? Quote Link to comment
