Default Big twin teaser

Little teaser of the twin build I have going on down at caliber customs. Should have it wrapped up by end of summer.

How are you getting the hot side past the cradle to the turbos. I want to do twins in the same location but can't figure out how to get the hot side past the cradle

Bummer on the MAST delay, hope they don't drag their feet to long on it.

Have you though of an alternate route if the MAST doesn't work out for some reason?

no one has a program for billet on the lsx-r port or i would have (that im aware of or lme). hogan could have made a sheet metal by now but they have a 6-8 week lead time. already to deep waiting for this thing might aswell stick it out and ride the wave lol
