Looks like a Detroit 12-71 diesel but the bug catchers have me a bit confused - unless they're just for decoration. They are nomally direct-injected with unrestricted intake airflow. The Detroit 12-71 diesels came with two 6-71 blowers, this was the original application that hodrodders took the blowers from.

Great shots guys!

Amazing how many of the same cars I shot.

Bruce; sorry I wasn't able to hook up with you guys. I was trying to pack a weeks worth of meetings into two days, and the hours went by way too fast. Had to get back to work on MCACN!

Not to worry, had some great meetings with national media and several interested potential future sponsors. The buzz about the MCACN show was great even all the way out there.

It was great to be stopped in the aisle when people read my name tag, and tell me they were planning on coming in. Heck...a guy in the elevator at the Bellagio even told me he has been watching the website and wanted to come out.

SEMA was indeed great. I saw all kinds of neat 2010 Camaro's and some that were, well...not so neat!

Was at the Art Center this summer - the whole rig twists when rev'd - makes its own kind of racket, too!

Great pics as always!
