    I see no turbos...
    and Why does it have a Dominator on top of an intake with fuel rails/injectors?
    Like it sits in that pic, it is not streetable in any reasonable sense of the word.

    Damn, I wonder if I can talk my grandpa into letting me have his Boss 429 engine? :rofl2:

    I can't wait to see that blown Boss 504 Maverick done. That will be the absolute most badass Maverick ever built IMO. :thumbs2:

    just a guess here? - they are sorting it out and or breaking it in with the carb on the dyno before they start messing with the tune on the turbo and injection set up?
    trying to find headers that will bolt onto a boss to make dyno runs are non exisitant before introducing turbos to the mix .

    I guess I dont see why it isnt streetable as it sits?


    by the way, looks nice!(y)

    That makes sense...
    AFA streetability, I was commenting on the Dominator, high rpm intake, and monster headers.
    Now, taking into consideration what you say, the fuel injection will make it better, taking the Dom out of the question. The FI will also negate the intake.
    Then, if the turbos are right, and they use different size pipes, it ought to be much less peaky and good for a street cruiser.
    It is a very nice piece of work any way you cut it.
