I think the last thing I remember seeing was when the 2J was on the engine stand at that shop and I think it was waiting on some parts still. I know it’s not a cheap build but I think you guys should help Cooper get it finished, or at least get it close enough to be drivable even if there’s still some more that needs to be done down the line. I can’t wait to see what that thing is capable of when it’s all done and it’s going to be one badass machine for sure.

The engine HAS to point down at least 1 degree from horizontal, which normally is fine, except cleetus was planning on a 1000hp v8 to "help" it move, which could pull the front wheels. As far as i could see that was close to earning a darwin award, because if the wheels came up and pointed that engines thrust down, that car would take off, and im talking altitude NOT acceleration. Acceleration would be 0-death pretty much instantly.

Cooper is a great guy he gets a ton of credit for the work he does. As does James. There valued and there friends. Obviously cletus gets more air time it's his show.

"You don't want to forget that, because then you'll have all neutrals." Yeah, just like a 4L60 LOL

[@DarkLinkAD]

Got the 4l60 swapped into 3500 dually. At least 150k Strong transmission so far, some towing in 3rd, bad mechanics nightmare. Needs proper grounds and after a many miles, valve body O rings replaced.

[@Avetho]

Yup, one doesn't just cancel a Jet-Camino for logical reasons and expect it to not go fast in a more reliable, safe way! XD Mullet gonna get some fasts and be speed, we gotta give a hell yeah brother On another note, perhaps this LS will get an 8-to-1 header. Not as good as a 12-to-1, but hey, its the thought that counts lol

Hell yeah brother!!! That’s some cool stuff you got there. It’s funny seeing a transmission that long. I’m my 2002 BMW Z3 M roadster the engine is connected to the transmission like every cars but there is no drive shaft the rear end connects to transmission tail shaft there is just enough room to connect the flanges. They have independent rear suspension. That ElCamino will be so awesome for a week of racing with that truck bed.

It be really cool to have a vented chair set up in it but also leave the rear window out of the cab and put one of those EL Camino snug tops on it so it's almost like a streamlined Farm Truck variation..... And for the bumpers I would get the Monte Carlo SS ground effects kit which will cover up where the bumpers were so you have a place for your tail lights to graft in on the back and a place to get rid of your steel bumper on the front and have a really cool arrow nose&grill treatment.
