Evening All!
Rob here in Portland, OR and I'm finally (FINALLY) getting a chance to complete my goblin. Chassis number 235 has been in my possession for a little over a year but we're finally at a place where I can get this thing ready for the road. I'm not entirely sure what I'm walking into but I've tried my best to go over the build videos and build logs here to get me prepared. I'm a one man operation unfortunately, so I'm hopeful that I'll be able to complete this within the next 6 months (fingers crossed).
I'm hoping for ~350-400whp with the following. I understand things get a little sketchy once past the 400 mark but I'm uncertain if I should build as is or start fresh with an LDK Long Block. I'm just looking for the most smiles per gallon possible. If anyone has any tips on things to look out for, PLEASE LET ME KNOW! I'll take all the help I can get at this point. Wish me luck!
PS: Photos are a bit dated. Should have some progress posted by the end of the week.
