Hey everyone,

My name is Devin and I am new to the b scene. I picked up my truck about a year ago and shortly after... It blew up. Since I lost my job shortly after I didn't have the money to put into it.

Build Log:
New Block [Bored 20 over]
New Pistons and Rings
New Crank [Ground down and went 30 over on the bearings]
New Oil Pump and Pick-up Tube
New Head
New Cam [Stage 2, 260 Grind]
New Adjustable Rockers
New Rocker Rods
All New Seals [Obviously]
New Motor Mounts [Mine were weak and busted]
Cat-less Exhaust

18' Nissan Titans wrapped with 40 series tires

To Do:

Thanks. Not sure how extreme I am gonna go with it. I know I wanna "clean" it up a little... Like tuck the rear a little more to match the front, raise the front bumper an inch or so to get rid of the factory gap between bumper and fender. Might do the 4x4 fenders but I dont really need to to be able to tuck.

Just thoughts I have. Right now, I just want it back on the road lol. I have a couple more things to button up and then she will fire her new motor for the first time.

Truck sounds good! Got a lil lope to it! How's it drive? What kind of power you got now?

I am waiting for the 500 mile break in before I test it out. Lol. Everything feels really smooth though.

This is what I am thinking for my paint scheme... Glossy red top half, matte white bottom half and glossy red wheels.
