sweet tow rig?

lets see

16-17 degree timing
370 or EDM injectors
Better Air intake
Twins
Headwork
studs, keepers, retainers
4K GSK
10 plate or a 100 plate
Southbend Dual Disk
Billet Shaft

should add up to a 450-500 rwhp minimum towing monster

Sounds about like mine except for twins(soon to come hopefully) and I have an auto. Works great for towing. A little water/meth and DV's will make it even better.

Wow you can't find work, that sucks, up here in Alberta, they are paying labourers 15 bucks an hour to start, they just can't get enough.
