  1. This sounds beastly, I wanna hear it when it's done since you're in tucson too :peepwall:

    you live in tucson? ill let you know when its done but this is going to be a loooooooong build. im ripping the truck apart and going through everything. it's going to be a show truck after im done! right now im debating parts for my new 454 block or audio parts :'(

    Yeah I live way out in bumfuck egypt by Old Tucson lol but can't wait to see how your build turns out. Should be worth the wait, sounds like it's going to be cool as hell already with the DC stuff going in and that new 454!

    oh shit hahaha i have cousins out there. im not to far i live in south tucson by pueblo high school. thanks dude my only problem is so much stuff and not enough $! i just got the rotating assembly (eagle forged crank and rods) and that ran me about 2k. but after the bore and hone on the block ittl be a 496 :D

  2. Why would .5 be a maybe? My pair are strapped at 1 ohm(.5 per amp) and have no issues.

    Now I have to add my disclaimer. Running below 1 ohm will void the factory warranty.

    I wasn't questioning the amplifiers ability to handle .5 ohm.

    I was questioning his electrical to supply enough current for the amp at .5 ohm due to his alternator being on the small side :)

    my alts on the small side?? last time i checked i got the highest amp available but i bought it about a half a year ago :(

    its a dc xp370

  3. So i finally got my alt and it's back to saving up for some DC products! So ive decided im going to go with two Level 5's powered at 1ohm to a 7.5K amp. Total watts rms rounded up will be around 9K. So the Alt's pushing 220 amps at idle and im going XS Power D31 batts. Ill be sticking two up front and 6 in the back. Do you guys think this will be enough? or will i need more bats or even a second alt?

  4. i would like to use dc but i got 2x 2ohms subs so i need 2 ohms load unless the dc can work at .5load daily?????

    Get yourself one hell of an electrical system to back it up.

    so with a nice electrical system it can run at .5 easily??? cuz if is like that I'm in

    4 alts and 15 batts? jk idk how much you would need but for .5 ohm holy shit thats alot of power!!!

  5. I had an 86 short we made it out of steel tubing and aluminum sheets and had the tail gate latch relocated to the inside. Towards the end I ended up placing an actuator on it so I could open it from the cab for show.

    ooh ok thats a pretty good idea. i had a friend that made one a couple years ago on around the same year as mine and he cut a hole in the tailgate and welded a bar in that spot so the latch he had on the cover would hook on and lock. hes currently locked up tho and truck totalled lol

  6. I used to be in that business, we used to custom order stuff for ANYTHING. I can't remember the name of the company. Ill email my old boss and let you know.

    hey bro thanks alot! i just dont want "velcro or buttons" protecting my bed with a speaker box plus batts from water sun thief's etc.. lol

    Naw, it would be fg or alum, color matched if you have your paint code.

    thats exactly what i was looking for and its gonna get re painted any way im looking at a metallic gun metal grey
