Yes, all the custom work was done by the previous owner. Frank Garcia, who was the center for the Carolina Panthers.

No way is that truck fitting in my garage. Top of the roof is 7'2"

Pistons and rings just came in so all I need is head studs and a cam. Motor vids are a few months away. Have not decided on an injection system, either AEM or Holley. May have a line on a throttle body off of an RO7.
