    I'm not sure on all the other questions, I'll ask the customer, it does lay frame though, that's why the turbo wasn't a option.

    Thats one of the bad things in the Air Ride Truck world was the invention of the 2link. It doesn't offer any good things from a rear setup except for thats its cheap and easy to install and anyone can do it. Plus you can win some burnout contests with a stock 4banger. You can still turbo them with laying frame. You just have to move a few things around. Speedaddicts lays frame and is turbo'd. The truck sounds really healthy.

    We were thinking about using the used Trick kit I have here, that one specifically wouldn't fit. I noticed the crossmember contacts the pavement quite a bit, the crossover pipe hangs below that, I could cut and shorten it, but it would still be .5" too low.

    Plus, the TVS is pretty cool,

    I will say it's a 224/234.

    I hate not posting the cam specs, but please look at it from this side, we've put a lot of time in testing the cams and even more $$$$$, so to just pass out the cam specs... you know.
    They aren't secret, we'll give you the cam specs when we sale a cam to you, so it's no secret, it's just we don't want to hand out free cam specs and get a "see ya later" lol. If it was a secret, we'd have comp cams put our own special grind on the end of the cam and not ther grind numbers.
    Then again, you can put any cam on the grind dr.

    It would have been too wide then, it's very tight between the trans oil pan and bell housing.
    The biggest issue was, IF it didn't fit, then I'd be stuck with a broken down ass turbo kit, lol.
