how many do you need and how big??????

That's a unique rig! Funny somebody just posted a diesel camaro rig on my site.... 67 with a Duramax.... I guess 1000hp and 1800-1900 ft/lb torque is estimated with a built 4L80E behind it.

I could get away with 3 and use them only at the new place but I would like to get 2 more if possible to put at my place when they pour the new approach...

Size:
4" x 4" wide at 5 or 5.5 feet long thin wall is fine...I think you had suggested that I burry them 1.5 to 2 feet correct? this way 3.5 feet above ground to run the cable across....

Great looking rigs...very unique...The guy I was talking to said someone in Havi owns either one or two of these custom rigs that were also custom built by the same guy that built the one I first posted..

BigBoyBlue · 09-11-2009, 07:48 PM

Its the same guy that built Jay Leno's Tank car. http://www.blastolene.com/

I guess there are a few diesel hot rods running around.... 70 Chevelle with a Duramax was featured in Popular Hot Rodding.... Finished Car, says it gets 32mpg.

once a year they hold a working truck show at the palmdale drag strip and you would see that type of truck there. Next month at Irwindale on Oct 4 there is a working truck show open to the public and they may have the drag strip open and you would see that type of truck there
