We give all our customers estimates. I like to keep that between the customer and myself due to every job is different. I will keep sending updates as we progess.

madman will get you rolling right. ive chatted with him a few times via PM and took his advice. so far ive gone from a spinning 1.68 spraying a 125 shot out of the hole, to a 1.68 60' all motor with absolutely zero tire spin. i havent had a chance to spray out of the hole yet, and i still have a few more things to add to help the suspension. madman will make it right! i wish i lived closer to him so he could do his voodoo on my toys.

good luck with the new setup. i'm sure it will perform great.
i'm pretty close to him, he's always at the track tuning on his customers vehicles and giving out advice.

I've yet to hear one bad thing about the work being performed over there at his shop. I'll have to admit at first I was a little apprehensive about leaving my **** in another state, at a shop I'd never been to with a guy I had only talked on the phone with once or twice. However, once I got there and got to meet everyone and take a look around the shop I was more than comfortable. Customer service so far has been some of the best I've seen out of a performance shop. I also like the fact that the words "no" or "it can't be done" don't seem to be in Brian's vocab.

I'm looking forward to getting the truck back.

Thanks Madman.

lol! If the motor lives! I'm pretty sure I can create enough cylinder pressure with the f1r to blow the fenders off.

wow. just insane of a build. what "street/strip" rims/tires are you gonna run for that kind of HP/TQ? id like to get a good set of tires finally...never had a reason to have 1200 in tires before bc i never created enough HP to keep the tires spinning for long

are you still on a 10 bolt or did you upgrade to a 12/14 bolt?
what transmission will be taking the abuse?

i really like that you want the truck to be able to be a daily driver...that makes this build even more important imo.
