It's turning out awesome!.... I saw a Zilla powered R at the dunes once but it was like the ellusive white buffalo & I never saw it again.

Thanks Kevin!

Very nice I like how it is turning out. It will be even better with a hand coned pipe of Arlen's. Gets me thinking

Thanks

That is one bad ass HonZilla! I'm assuming you'll have the Rad and as much installed (coolant lines too!) so the Pipe won't interfere with anything when you attach everything else....I made that mistake once....better to learn from other's mistakes than you own!

Keep the pics coming......it's an Awesome build!

Looks great I'm surprised more guys don't do thus with the AAEN pipe made for the swap.

I thought about the Aaen pipe, Ive heard good things about it but I really like my LRD that I had on the Zilla and Arlan is confident that the new pipe will perform like I want it to.

A few more pics of my progress so far. Sent the head out to Larry Wiechman for the decompression mod, Sandad has my handle bars and front grab bar to polish them. Working on the brake systems today.

Got it about 99% complete, need to install the decomp head when I get it back. Arlan won't be ready for me until next week, so I get to stare at it in my garage all week. Thanks to Sandad21 for the awesome job polishing my handle bars, can't wait to see the front grab bar when he gets that done, awesome work!!

Got it outside the other day in the brief moment of sunshine.

Yeah, I spent some time on it yesterday and finished up a bunch of little loose ends. I will get my cylinder head, with the decomp mod, back next week then Arlan wants me to bring it in to him on the first. Once I get it back swap out the dirt tires for paddles, because it will never see dirt as long as I have it, and wait for a break in the weather to try it out.
