At this years event Jason will be raffling off products from some of the top vendors around the country.B&C Customs,Radio Control Fabrication and Colquitt Customs have joined together and built something that could make a real nice scale rig.B&C did the paint for the C10,RCF built the CSC-1 chassis and Colquitt Customs built the bumpers & sliders.I don't know what will be added to the final product before it's raffled off, but when it's finished someone is going to have a bada** rig.Here's a video.

Congratulations beeeyotch!
Thanks guys, I really am excited that I won it.

I did a mock up last night and I think I will plan on RPM Revolver wheels, Unimoger's rock rings (not sure which yet), IMEX Swamp Dawg or HPI Geolander tires, TLT axles, coil spring suspension front and rear with TLT shocks for a scale look, frame mounted steering, winch, working lights, some type of rack from Unimoger, frame mounted tow hooks and rear receiver hitch, and maybe have Heydco machine me up a tranny. I thought about putting Moabs on it but I don't want to cut the body too much, this will be a scale trail rig build....not a comp crawler.

I don't know exactly how soon I will start on it. After a solid month of building 2 comp rigs for Moab in every spare minute I had, the trophy girl is not quite ready for me to start a new project just yet. :lol: :lol:

Oh, and don't worry.......it wont be for sale. :twisted:

In his defense I got stuck in the same loose a$$ spot and I have a rear locker, but the lever on the floor and the switchs on the dash got me out. Probally did not need the front locker but I had already lock the front in and if you have it ,you have to test it from time to time.

What's that big shaft thing stickin' out? Is that for the snow?:) Can we get some specs?I love anything that is loud,fast,and guzzles gas!

Yes it is for the snow...and the sand, and for beating stock Mustangs. :lol:

The block is a Ford 351W bored and stroked to 393ci from Coast High Performance. It has a forged steel crank, forged 4340 rods, and forged pistons. Compression is 8.5:1 with World Windsor Senior heads. The Comp Cams steel roller rockers are tickled by a custom ground camshaft that I designed and the custom pushrods ride on roller lifters.

The "big shaft" is the snout of the Holley 174ci roots blower sitting on a Holley intake manifold designed for a 302 block but adapted to the 351 by Price Motorsport Engineering ( http://www.pricemotorsport.com/ ).

Fuel is fed by a 750hp rated Accel fuel pump feeding a Holley Commander 950 fuel injection system. The computer also controls timing thanks to the late model MSD TFI distributor.

The motor made 600 hp and 600 ft-lb of torque on the dyno (on it's good run) with a poorly jetted 750 Holley carb and the timing locked at 18 degrees. I am pretty sure the blower is only making 3 psi of boost right now. The motor is capable of much more power but in the interest of keeping the drive train alive I am going to keep the motor to about 550-600 hp. The motor makes 530 ft-lb of torque at 3700 rpm and still makes 500 ft-lb of torque at 5500 rpm. It's not done making horsepower at 5800 rpm but the rev limiter will be set to 6000 rpm so that is all we tested it to.

Loud: YES
Fast: 600hp in a 4500 lb rig. YES
Guzzles Gas: Oh yeah.

Video and more pics here.

I got some TLT axles for it a couple weeks ago and was going to get to work on it. Then I decided to redo my comp rigs so it got shoved to the back of the workbench again. I don't want to start a build thread until I am able to really do some work on it.

I have 2 G-hawgs cut to look like TSL's, narrowed RPM Torkerz wheels, a 'pede tranny, 'pede sliders with metal yokes, a set of bruiser leaf packs, TLT shocks, and 18T springs (in case I decide on coilovers instead of leafs in the rear). I really just need to get to fabricating.

You guys know it take me like 8 months to do anything! :lol:
