Thanks! It is a 1915 with single Del 45 and a T4 turbo but changing to a T3 5 grand just to much for 20lbs of boost.

David, still haven't seen any video of that motor. When you going to get Angie to film you stuffing the nose in the sand or something. :P
Talk to you later, will try to call this weekend if I can get away for a minute.

In the second pic it appears that you are breeding bugs. How is that going? That is a very nice buggy.

Nice buggy!

That oil line looks like it's hanging low, have you ever had it catch on anything?

Hey Leatherneck! Did you do that turbo setup yourself from what you learned from Scott? If so, how hard was it?

Yes that is the one Scott the Viking helped me with, he did the Pistons and jugs, Turbo cam and gave direction on setting it up.

As far as hard, not if you have somebody who does not mind answering stupid questions, he was pretty patient with me. Glad I did it, first time I hit 20lbs of boost I was smiling all day.

Buggy looks really good. I haven't seen it for a while. You have been busy.

Hey Leatherneck, give me a call sometime. Love to talk to you again, maybe this July when I take vacation I can come visit and bring my rail and go play in that sand at Little Sahara or something. Been thinking about either stroking my motor out to a 2275 or going your route with the turbo. Send some more pictures when you get them. Talk to you later brother
