Bertha,picking up where Shewheeler left off.

Bumpity bumpity bumpity...

Sounds awesome. I need to swing by this weekend and hear it in person.
 
Dayum that thing sounds mean! I must have missed it. What did you do to the motor?


And what is the significance of truck jumping at the top of the page? Is it because its set up like yours?

Stock 5.3 with a Pac Fab cam package. The cam is custom ground by Comp Cams per Kevin's specs and its exactly what I wanted. I wanted bumpity with an extra side of bumpity and that's exactly what I got :thumb:

Its not set up like mine, but some day I hope mine will be half the truck that one is. That truck currently spanks modern high dollar machines in its class.

Bumpity bumpity bumpity...

Come by tomorrow on your way home and you can blip the throttle :D
 
Damn I saw that on PAC-FAB's Facebook page, had no idea it was you! That's mean man! It's amazing what a cam swap can do for LS engines. What are you doing for exhaust? I'm curious to see what it sounds like through a muffler.
 
Omg! :thumb:

That sounds real nice! :waytogo:

Thanks :waytogo:

I let my 6 year girl start it last night.And I blipped the throttle so she could check out the flames out the exhaust and she thought it was the coolest thing evar :pimp:

Its actually hers. I gave it to her for her birthday in April :D

Pretty brutal! Going to sound sooo good at the dunes!

The dunes,mall,the desert, people will know Im legit :haha:

I didnt even know they put it up on there Facebook til later in the day. Pretty cool :D

The exhaust is going to be short n sweet. Dynomax race bullets and turn downs in front of the axle :pimp:
 
Glad you didn`t give it back to your son! :whistle::haha:

Sorry had to... that truck will make many memories for you and her for sure! :waytogo:
 
She asked me last night after she shut it off if we would be able to take it off sweet jumps like we used to do. I said oh yea...but a lot faster.

She snapped her head around and gave me a crazy smile. Im excited to get her out in it,but at the same time scared to death ha ha :D

Yes it should :D

Morgan had a friend over when I got home from work today. We were talking about Bertha and her friend asked "Who is Bertha?" . I said she is big,ugly, a little chunky, smells funny, and lives beside the house...so Morgan asked if she could start her and how could I say no :pimp:

The friend ran off screaming :haha:

Oh yea,I made the bumpity bumpity my ring tone ha ha! :woot:

Nice, putting the fear in hearts already:)
 
Not a lot to update. Drove it out of the back yard and got it turned around so I could get the other door and fender swapped out.

Quick n dirty throttle cable bracket just to get the throttle body hooked to the pedal :D

Will be making a different one later.



And the view from the kitchen door :rolleyes:

 
Those headers are awesome.
When does the computer come in? I want to come back by and make bumpity noises.
 
I call bs. Quick and dirty does not include drilling speed holes and dimpling them.

It can only be considered quick and dirty if it was a piece you already had made and laying around :whistle:
 
The throttle cable looks pimp, but your kitchen needs some work. :D
