This truck has a Twin Holley carb atop a Littlefield 8:71 Competition Series blower rests on a Hampton intake manifold. Below that, 428 SCJ iron 'N' heads were filled with Manley stainless steel valves, Comp springs, and titanium rocker arms. JE pistons, a Comp cam (.675 lift; .308 duration), Melling oil pump, and a custom oil pan were notable additions to my already-beefy block.
