Yeah 2wd is sorta useless. Granted I need some new tires, still don't think it's going to help. 4wd is going to be fun but haven't been able to test it out since my front prop shaft isn't finished yet. One thing I do need to fix before I rip on it anymore is my Innovate MTX wideband... recalibrated it yesterday since it was reading a little off, now the damn thing is way off. Even cruising it flashes to 22.5 way to often. Hopeing it's just the sensor which I can just pick up a new bosh sensor at Advance auto. Off or not gonna wait to rip on it again just to be safe.
Goes on the dyno January 14th so will see what the truck can really put down.

Well the fittings I ordered for the intercooler and tank came in but they packaged the wrong fittings that go into the intercooler. Ordered -16 ORB to 1" hose but they sent me a -16 ORM to -16 AN male. Good thing I got a buddy whose a machinest and got them fixed up for me overnight. Started mounting the tank and getting the pump installed and all that taken care of. In the pictures it shows the pump mounted straight to the tank but after putting it in the bed and seeing how much room I had underneath I ended up mounting it off the frame. Also looks a lot cleaner too. Getting the truck ready for January 14th for a big dyno day some new local shop is having. Meth and nitrous kit comes in beginning of next week so that will all go in as well hopefully if time permits...

If the bottom doesn't have a screen be carful how much ice and not to pack it tight.
You don't want to suck a piece of ice into the suction port.

That screen is never going to work. It's actually gonna make it worse. Do yourself a huge favor now and run a tube into that tank with holes drilled in it all the way down.
The way it is now, 1 cube could plug the whole system up easily.

Yea, I agree. You really want something like this: Aluminum Perforated Pipe Strong and Durable for Filtration
But it may be cheaper/easier to get some perferated sheet like this https://www.onlinemetals.com/merchan...003&top_cat=60 and roll it to the diameter you want and weld a cap on the end.

In current config will work as long as you don't stomp ice in the tank.
Currently since the tank is built,
Choices
Let it ride don't over pack the tank. Ice does float.
Install a perforated tube.
But need to get inside and tack in place so it doesn't move.
Install flat piece piece of perforated metal on an angle still need tack in place.
Could call the mfg and get their input. They did build the tank.
