was this in a rattle can? What was the brand?
Yup, just a quick rattle can job. I think I used two cans for the engine and accessories.

It's this stuff:

VHT SP402 Burnt Copper High Temp (650 degrees Fahrenheit) Engine Metallic has excellent durability and superior heat and chemical resistance. It is specially formulated to withstand corrosion, rust, salt spray, chemicals and additives of today's gasoline blends and degreasers. VHT's Engine Metallics is a unique blend of urethane and ceramic resins, which produce a long-lasting finish for engines, engine accessories or wherever a tough durable heat and chemical resistant finish is needed.

Man that burnt orange looks SWEET. Cat yellow sounds good too. I run Cat machines all day so they guys at work would love it.

Still no picks yet guys. It won't let me from my iPad.
I will see what I can do in a little wile from my computer.

i might have to do some testing on diff combo,s

most of the motor burnt orange

turbo not sure on the way to clock it for the intake.

wish it was inercooled

my buddy told me that i dont realy need one unless i was changing the turbo i found an IC on CL along with the piping good for 400- 700 hp. I guess gas IC's are diff from our cummins..... pushing hot air ??



the motor is still on the shelf at my buddies so i only have a pic of it up high .... but i will take some before and afters when i get it



Also was wondering about converting the 4x4 tranny to a 2wd

didnt know if anyone had a 2wd tail the tranny

although it would be cool to do some 4wd launchs
