I am finally happy with how my savage has turned out. Its taken many months, more money than I'd like to admit... And the classic, blood, sweat and tears!
It started its days as a savage xl 5.9 with an LRP 32 spec.4 as its lungs. It was a great setup and I enjoyed it for a while. I found a...

Before I start with the build I will give a little back story on the truck.
I bought this truck used back in 12/05. It started its life as a non x SS 4.6. I ran the crap out of it. replaced what broke with upgrades. Burnt that motor out and got a Axial .28rr ran that for a while. I did some BP...
