What do you think? Is it a worthy project?
All steel, a friend has plans for it

I should have taken a picture of this truck now. Bob has a blown 540 ci BB Chevy in it backed by a 5 speed. Just about ready to powdercoat the chassis.
Should be pushing well past 1000 HP on that short wheel base. Shifting that thing is going to be nuts!
Pretty cool.

Really is cool. Is he gonna keep the 1000HP or tone it down?

Knowing him , as I do I would not be surprised to see fogger nitrous added to compensate for the heat developed by the blower.
I just hope shifting that thing manually five times will be enough to keep his mind off that stuff

I seem to remember seeing a shifter some time back that had an accessory switch built right into the top. That's what he needs.
