No kidding. You would think that by now, he's found every roach in Vegas with his trips up and down every street.

To be fair, I think a lot of the counts "finds" could be staged for dramatic effect.  :o

Sort of like on Pawn Stars where the two numb skulls break down (probably staged) in the truck and walk through the desert to a gun range to ask for a phone to call for help.   All while being followed by a film crew.   :smilielol:

I'm still a bit jealous though, that '70 has a bit more "patina" than mine.  :lol:

We have a guy here that installs rear mount twin turbos on the late hemi engines. "Performance injection equipment"  he sells the kit.  :Twocents:

I'm a fabricator, I can make anything for it. Already built a tubular k frame coil over setup for it. Plus I don't like rear mount turbo setups. The longer the hot side the more time exhaust charge has to cool causing delayed spool up. Plus the longer the cold side is more volume of space to pressurize before it will even show boost
