What's with the bolts on the outside edges? I'd be interested in seeing how they mount to the frame....

Bumpers look good. Too bad the self righting jib crane with the kung fu grip attatchment will crumple them like an empty beer can.

Yup... You know it

As for testing them..Nah . Put off the truck over the winter but this weekend I got an old timer engine tuner guy to dial in the 428. Doesn't flash up as quick ad it should with the new ignition and could be tuned better. I'll admit it's not my cup of tea so I'll gladly pay a pro.
Although it does run. I was laying down nice 5 foot long locker burbouts on the gravel driveway couple days ago and man its got some good power and spins the 44's like nothing with the new traction bar and 5:13s with no hop. I like!

my old engine layed down a good 150' long burnout through a jr high parking lot at Nick #2s. I guess thats almost as good as 5' in gravel.

maybe if you anchored yourself to the asphalt with your jib crane that would help
