Got the Cvec pipe and it fits great!! Also the only turnbuckles that have been bending are the front 2 so I replaced them with some lunsford titanium turnbuckles. I also found some lexan paint from a last truck and put some paint on the clear shell. After a 50mph 30yrd roof slide the clear body didnt look so hot anymore:p. I love the adjustability of the cvec power system pipe. The mechanics inside are pretty cool. Well here she is everyone kept telling me I needed a aluminum pipe so here it is. My memory card reader isnt working so I thought I wouldnt be able to get any pics. Then I remembered the wifes camera phone. Pictures are low quality but they are pictures none the less.

btw as soon as this hurricane passes Ill let you know how it runs.

Thanks for all the comments guys.

Tarant, I may try that.
 
I have made some changes to it since these pictures but hate posting so many pictures after every change. All the blue has been removed from the screws to the antenna mount. I also have mailed out a chassis to be anodized red. I need a good painted body to try to get in a mag though. Mine are all beat up and I dont have a airbrush or the know how for that matter. :)
 
New head, new pull start(removed ezstart) new dish rims. New piston and sleeve.

What happened to the cvec and the shock socks???

The cvec is for when I want low end torque and the shock socks are ripping so I ordered some black ones.
 
I wouldn't let a little hurricane stop me from running my truck......

That thing looks sweet!
