Default cummins swap kustom parts for a ...

sorry, but i am not allowed to reveal that much info about this truck, but i figured i could show a couple parts that i fabbed for this kustom monster. i can say it has fox coilovers, 2.5 ton axles, and 54" mickey thompsons. this is the first part i built for the project, a kustom intercooler capable of flow almost 1200 cfm of air. tomorrow i will be hammering out a radiator to fit in the confined space. hope you enjoy!

if your not allowed to post any info about the truck, why post a thread on it?

it's like a teaser, so i can show off any one-off parts that wouldn't identify the vehicle until it hits the street, and probably magazine racks, when it can be enjoyed in its entirety. i have to be quiet about it because:
a) not my project, i just fab all the aluminum and stainless parts and
b) it is so crazy that the builder is worried about someone else trying to copy it before its completely finished.
i figured that by posting a thread about a guy making his own parts because the stock dodge stuff doesn't fit would be inspirational to someone stuck in the middle of a swap with the same problem. i know that as a fabricator "there's more than one way to skin a cat," and i love to see other fabricators ideas, so why not show off my solution to the "no space" problem?

Just curious, why the round ports that run over the edge instead of oval ports?
