I totally agree!!! That would be awesome. The funny thing is a few years back I was well on my way to building a Jet powered go-kart.

The Bat mobile had a jet engine. Should I have it drop put from the undercarriage, or a special lift out from the bed?

Either, or have if kind of sideways and it swings out and down. Could be flat against the rear of the cab, where the spare goes, or cut and weld a notch on one side of the bed and hold it sideways vertically there. Plenty of options................

I like it. You must have boosted your horsepower by at least 10

Easly 10HP gain. As soon as i get some decals on it I am sure to gain more. I cant wait to get it on the dyno and see the before and after results.

Nice! Also good to see another home machinist on the board.

For the other tool junkies, here's a quick video I shot this weekend. I am working with some #80 roller chain sprockets, and I needed to open up the ID on one:

I think there are more machinists/fabricators/welders on here than you think.
