Its got a built 355/B&M 350turbo/np208, 10b front welded, 12bolt rear welded, 4.56 gears, 35" boggers, and 4" lift.

Truck was originally built 5-6 years ago out of a wrecked truck, frame was bent but they ran it like that up untill half way through 2011 when she broke the 350t were it bolted to the adapter. Thats when it was decided that it was time to rebuilt the truck, he found a straight frame, had it blasted, and painted it.

He found a step side bed and rebuilt it, did all the repairs to the cab that was needed. It took him over a year to complete the truck, she got to run it one time last year at the final race of the season.

He has a aluminum headed 383 stroker waiting to be dropped in it but if he puts it in she will have to step up to another class of trucks.

Sorry for the lengthy post....
 
The before pic is better. I hate step side trucks. It is a total waste, as is a short bed. I would take a dually over a step side. It is more useful and still has the look of big fenders.

That pic in the mud is pretty badass. It's a shame to get such a nice covered in mud, but I'll bet it is fun.
 
Yes it is a very beautiful truck, its only use is mud racing. Its not tagged or anything, just a trailer queen.

Whats funny is that he is a mopar man and when he asked her what she wanted to race she said a chevy. lol

He said he may have to repaint it from the body line down and add some chip guard, the race the pic was taken beat the paint job up from all the shell rock in the mud.
 
Beautiful truck! I like the fleetside bed better that the stepside but awesome truck nonetheless!
