not much to update. i am waiting on the tranny so i can finish the exhaust and i am waiting to get the intercooler back so i can finish the charge pipes. both should be done this week. i hope to have everything i need for july 4th weekend so i can get it done on the long weekend.

about all i have to do right now is relocate the battery. i started on that and it is looking like an easy project. i also got a new wheel well so i can replace the one i cut up. i might go do that tonight but it is kinda hot outside and i am working 10 hour days so it kills my motivation. here is a pic of my battery box so far. i need some kind of terminals before i go much farther with it.

have you thought about movingthe fuel tank or swapping to a cell? That way you can run the dual pipes strait down each side.

i will probably be going to a pair of fuel cells in the fall or over the winter. i want to step up to a carb style intake, larger tb and 16 injectors staged with a duel fuel set up. 87 puting around and c16 as the boost ramps up

Looks great! You ever thought about making clean looking? You know debadging it, SS front etc. or are you trying to make it a sleeper?? I doubt that you can since im pretty sure everyone knows what you have

it is debaged, i would like to pull the side moldings off but the ******* thing has dings right where they end and i know what the entire side would look like if i had no side moldings at all.

the painted bumper would be cool too but i spend too much time standing on my bumper working on the truck to try that one.

i really dont care too much what it looks like as long as it isn't all ratty.
