Looking good, I want to see this thing run and hear your thoughts of it.

 

How much clearance do you have from the back of the alternator to the fuel rail?

 

Not for sure yet but it looks to be more then what I had with the magnacharger on there.

 

I am very close to buying that same intake as my next upgrade, but havent heard a lot of reviews from the turbo truck guys...

 

Intake is on but I ran into one problem. The FIC2000 injectors seat too far into the intake and cause them to pull out of the fuel rail. I got in contact with FIC and they have billet collars to put on the injectors to keep this from happening. Got those coming..... Exhaust is done. Had my friend Rich tig the joints and hangers on. He went above and beyond and made them look awesome. The guy can definitely weld! I did spot weld them with a mig welder and found out that wasn't the thing to do. Should've bought a roll of stainless wire and then used it. I just caused Rich a lot more work as he had to grind those welds off... sorry...
I guess you learn something new everyday! About all that is left is put the V-band clamp on the front of the exhaust. Remove one broken bolt from the frame for the sway bar mount. reinstall the sway bar and see how bad it's going to hit on the crossover pipe. Ran into a leak on the transmission. It's coming out of the internal wiring harness connector. Greg at Phoenix sent me out a new one. Need to install that. Put the fuel rails on. Figure out what air filter I need. Also need to maybe lengthen the intercooler pipe to the throttle body and weld the IAT bung in. Pipe is too short because of how high the intake sits.

 

So hopefully she'll be runnin early this week?

 

So close.............
Waiting on a fuel line fitting and the air filter. Everything else is done......
If it starts on the tune I'll be happy!

 

Damn this truck is badass. 1000hp cc just sounds beastly

 

Air filter and ducting came out fairly descent. It's a little saggy and needs some support but will work. Filter is down there and hope that it gets some cooler air vs the filter right off the inlet of the turbo. The bend at the throttle body is a 4" straight coupler and a 45 degree 4" to 3" reducer. It also has a 4" metal jointer in there. I don't really like how that came out. Had to do a lot of trimming to make those fit right. It really probably needs a 60 degree bend reducer there but I couldn't seem to find one. Waiting on one fuel line fitting still. It should be here this week.

 

That looks good, I like that setup.
