MoNsTeR mUdDeR · 10-17-2008, 11:11 AM

this is my first truck... it is not street legal... im 15 years old

it is a chevy S-10 4-linked on 44 cut boggers... has a 10 point roll cage, and a 5 point saftey harness with racing seat... its my first truck... has a 406 small block with over 450 hp. 205 t-case with a full manual body turbo 400... msd 6al ignition...the only thing original from the truck is the body. full tube chassis... Great first truck and all the hard work payed off... took a little over 8 months to build from scratch with the help from my grandpa and brothers...

and a short video

Looks real nice.

Did you get that accelerator pump issue resolved? Sounds like a small hesitation when you stomp the skinny pedal.
Is that a right hand drive chassis? Reasons for this?
I would like to learn more. Any reason why rear brakes are not used?
I know, brakes are over rated, they just slow you down!

that was the first time out with the truck we still have to make some changes and adjustments... there is only one seat in the truck and it is right in the center... front brakes were easier to use but if we need to we are going to install them on the back.
