I like the all black look. I'm assuming you have more than just the stock suspension?

BTW for a twin turbo 6.4 doing t3/60-1's, I wouldn't be happy with less than 950whp. On pump gas. Twin 57trims would more than do it, and if spool isn't that important, full t04e's with divided .70 turbines would still hit full boost by 3-3500 rpm. They would also be cheap as ----, enough to get other cool ---- like meth injection.

This is the fab section. Go be retarded elsewhere.

Nice looking set-up. Always like to see an non-sport-compact project.

2 inch drop spindles. 2 inch drop hangers, Leaf clamp on front of leap spring, and Slapper bars snubbed on the spring eye. Its a proven old school leaf spring setup...But ill be putting a triangulated 4-link in the near future.

ford f250 front springs are pretty stiff.. also long and cheap if you want to make an ultra squatable rear setup.

You must not know much about rear suspension setup. You never want the rear to "squat." When your rear end squats you are loosing push of the tires to the ground. You actually want the rear end to go up during acceleration. This indicates push and maximum traction.

Now for the front you want a soft suspension...as soft as possible but still able to hold the wieght of the vehicle. A soft spring and shock allows the front end to lift up freely to allow transfer of weight to the rear. To stiff of a shock or spring and youll get bounce...or worse, tire lift.

I have rear and front lift with this suspesion setup. And almost zero front end bounce. I was pulling 2.0 60's during 1/8 mile runs with M/T ET streets. It wasnt spinning one bit...but the truck had absolutly no low end. With the manifold and cam im running its a 3k powerband, and I had the stock stall converter.

Refer to this previous post.

Also there was a problem with the turbo so I have to send that back as well. When it gets hot it is locking up. Its like its not alowing for heat expansion. Ive heard that on some garrett journal bearings they installed the bearing backwords.
But it will be faster. Blower takes about 10hp to make 1 pis. 10psi=100 hp draw.

10psi with turbo=0hp draw.
