Does sound real nice mate, it's nice having all that extra power too isn't it instead of having to stop and change gears, or starting out in a lower one and then not being able to keep the momentum. looks like all the hard work has paid off for you, well done.

Oops
Did not mean to gain some wings in this zook.
what happens when u are not used to the bigblock and give it a quick boot before asending a sloppy - slippy bank. Did not even hit it with much speed.

Landing will have to wait for the caps from the video. angle of bank made for quick orbit.
Was not too bad a landing. thought to expect worse. no damage thou my 1" extended box-section bumpstops are nowabout 10mm extended. nice bent in V. lucky did not have crush tubes in there as more damage may of happened.
Popped a transfer mount but beleive i did this earlier to this on last climb. also front body mounts are slightly bent now, i believe this is due to the BL forcing more load on to them. i'm leaving these now anyway. still drives good and all that.
Front diff looks ok.
