    It's pretty quiet when just cruising, but when it get on the cam it really screams.
    Here is my next project which might interest you. It will be controlled by a Megasquirt and the ignition will be an EDIS with the coil packs concealed in a housing that looks like a Vertex mag.

    Very cool!....what are those TB's out of?
    There are some nice couplers that the Weber carb guys use on their EFI conversions ...I think it's Redline EFI or something like that. Keep us up to date on this one ...PLEASE!

    The throttle bodies came from a TRD intake for a Toyota V6 that I found on E-Bay. They were used on factory stadium trucks. If you look real close you can see TRD cast on the TB's. I thought this would be cool as I am running a Toyota engine. The intake manifold I fabricated myself. It will probably be a couple of months before I do anything on this project because I want to get all the bugs worked out on the T before I go any farther.

    Old Guy!
    Thanks for taking the time to share with us slackers, I love seeing you build this rather than seeing another 9" Ford slapped under it. Happy Holidays to you and your family! tt

    It's not a 9", but it has 9" spider gears, billet axles and bearings.

    I am a machinist by Trade, but had to reducate and take another job when the manufacturing bust happened. I will someday have a mill and a lathe in my private shop. Then i can take on these kind of projects. This is very inspiring. Thanks.

    I have friends in the tool and die trade, and can tell you that they can work what seem like miracles.

    I agree, this is nice work!!
