      Unique build twin turbo powered Duramax in a 68 Camaro

      A local shop is building this unique car for a company who specializes in Diesel performance and converters. They have a Chevy Duramax that has twin turbos and has dynoed at 1200HP! They are finishing up the firewall now and should have the motor installed in a week they said. I will pop back in and take pics of the updates..

      Do you still believe in all the things that you stood by before? Are you out there on the front lines, or at home keeping score?
      Do you care to be the layer of the bricks that seal your fate? Would you rather be the architect of what we might create?

      At least, probably closer to 2000, those oil burners make crazy torque.
