Love the build, and doing my 05 very similarly. What are your plans for fuel and converter?
The truck in NC or Havasu? My inlaws have a place there and we go a couple times a year.

Im from Havasu, Im in NC for the next few years. I would like to move back out west in the next 5 years. AZ is awesome, NC has too many f-uped laws dealing with cars. I have aeromotive 340 pump, and im going to use dieshwerks 60lb injectors. I will go with a circle D single disk converter around 35-3600 stall. Im not too worried about locking up the converter, so I dont need the triple disk.

Havent tackled turbo yet, Full time work and school has me busy, and having few days in row to get it done without driving it is hard right now, but soon. I picked up some Raceline Renegade 6's 16 X 8 for the front, the 16 X 10's for the rear would stick out too far with only 4.5" bs. So i have a set of 17 X 9's with 5" bs on order. Im going to see how much tire I can squeeze out of the 17 X 9's. I really like the way these wheels look and on the bathroom scale weighed in at 20.3 lbs. For $117 a wheel they are perfect for the track for me, and don't look bad at all. When the truck gets lowered, it will look real good.
I like rims, especially at 20.3lbs. Figure out a converter/cam setup yet?

got my rear wheels in, and got one drag radial mounted up, need to order another, put the wheels on to see how it looked, i actually dont think its too bad. Raceline Renegade 6's 16x8 front with 245/70/16's and 17x9's out back with more backspace with 390/40/17 M&H. I got a real good deal on a brand new one for 150 bucks, so I need to buy another, may have to sell a organ to do it. The M&Hs seem to run small, so i gave it a shot on the 9" rim, they fit fine. My ultimate goal will be some bogarts later down the road.
