 Now that's SWEEEEET!! Love the wheelbase! Excellent thinking and workmanship on the motor! Nice reference photo on the motor too. Reds a cool color. What are you thinking for a paint job on the cab? By the way the cab looks equally nice. Can't wait to see what your going to do with the paint job on the cab! Definitely nice to see some thinking outside the box! I have a couple of cabovers in my stash and and am going to watch your build for sure.

You've combined two of my favorite things-big cab overs and unique power plants.Do you know what kind of truck your reference photo is.It must be a custom install,because I believe V16's were off road items only.Can't wait to see it finished.

That photo is a KW 100.The company ran K.W.s with 16/71's to pull heavy trailers in the Western mountain area.The one in the photo is a hot rodded one for racing backed by K.W. and Banks Diesel performance, it races 1/4 mile in Canada ,Bonneville and the Mile in N. Carolina. Paul |
