I'm pretty sure the Harley engine had a few less HP, plus Doc did that swap too.

it ran less boost, it was still the exact same engine. Doing a pulley swap kinda makes that irrelevant

it's cool, but not to me at that price. i'm cheap.

btw offroadkarter, is that a marauder in you pic, or just a clone? either way, pretty sweet.

Yep tuning issues and stoopid mistakes are what I am dealing with. A total swap would have been ALOT easier like this guy did. BUT NOOOOOO I had to BUILD one! LOL

He's right though they are a hell of a lot of fun to drive! and about on the money for investment. I have close to $60K in mine and you can't hardly tell.

Oh and I found out I burnt a couple valves, nothing major and I will get it fixed but not in the near future as an SAS and full custom fourlink suspension are in the works for her this winter...(found a sponsor) gonna be a really cool project.

It is a pretty cool swap...but I think I'd rather see a Lightning SAS'd.

^Right...but with his SC...I thought he meant he got his hands on a lightning.

^^^My solution...tell her to go make you sammich. While she's distracted doing that, buy whacha have to buy. Then cover it in the shed with a sheet or something...put truck parts over it, and she'll never even look.

Wait til you're married that won't work after the first year.
