VIDEO! TVS R1900 Silverado finally makes it to track
It's been awhile since anything has been posted about Matt Swartzlander's combination. He's been hard at work making some major changes. Cosmetically the truck has been dropped, got some 20's, a fiberglass tonneau cover, cowl induction hood and some new paint. Mechanically the truck now has a 6.6L with a front-inlet R1900 along with Baer brakes.
Truck made some passes out at Milan Dragway yesterday and has a new best of 11.4 @ 119. Still some tuning left in it and needs some suspension work since after reviewing some video the truck keeps unloading on launch. Spinning all 4 wheels is not a problem!
Here's a couple pics. Video to follow:

I really like that. I've been hoping to see that truck at the track again around here. That 1900 looks bigger than the TVS series I've seen on here, is it much different. I'm also very impressed with that lower manifold.
