Default Duramax Diesel 70 chevelle
Guys, I wanted to share another sweet build that we have put wheels on. Some of you may have seen it at SEMA last year. It is on DPE R05S wheels. the Rear wheel is a 20x15! Enjoy!

nice wheels. That was a cool car, saw it last year. I'd say it should haul with the torque the Dmax's make.

Ryan,
That is a Chevelle. Who built that car?

Wow... that engine is so wide, it almost looks like someone parked a Mini under the hood of a Chevelle!

Makes me think though, when is that new passenger car Duramax supposed to be released?

Shiny Side Up!

I looked around for more specs, this was the best write-up I could find.

http://www.dieselpowermag.com/tech/c...max/index.html

Still not very complete on details. Maybe Ryan could ask him to come here and share more about it? What gearhead doesn't love to talk about his ride?
I've got a Dmax plan on the back burner and would love to ask Mike a few questions about how he tackled a few things...

The paint and body on the Duramax Chevelle were done by Rick at Anaheim Prestige Autoworks in Placentia, CA.
