"Exotic" auto parts designs. - 02.10.2009, 01:27 AM

Ever see really cool custom parts on a car that someone should make available for purchase? Well over on the noob forum someone thought it would be cool to make a 1:1 Revo with cantilever suspension and it reminded me of a friend in Houston Texas. I did his motor work for him back when I was a tech and he had some of the sweetest chassis/suspension designs you will ever see. The one that I remember the most was Project Mazda that had cantilever air bag suspension. It also had a 327 small block I built for him Check this out and tell me its not cool. His shop is called Mind To Metal and it is located in Houston about 2 miles off FM 1960 where Hardy Toll Road crosses.





The answer is no. And yes, mine is faster.

Haha, no I packed it full of liquid nitrogen and welded over the water neck and pump It has a radiator but its too tall for show. It only gets ran in 30 second intervals anyways, no reason to put the radiator on it. The motor just has a new stock cam. Nothing wild. It can't eat the amount of fuel going through it but the tunnel ram looks cool.
