I may end up shaving the tailgate. I go camping quite a bit and it would be a pain to get into the bed without the bumper so I'm going to keep it on for now.

Some updates:
Got a few more parts. Picked up a set of WCCH Stage II LQ9 heads, Comp cam 224/230 .581/.592 114, I have the performabuilt level 3 4L60E on the way.
Still need a torque converter, going with a Circle D Multi-disk around a 3200 stall, And a few odd and end things such as gaskets, pushrods, oil pump.
Also going with a 4.56 gear with a Detroit TruTrac rear locker.

Well, I finally got the Jeep registered and on the road so now the build of the C3 can really start. I'm swapping out the stock intake to the NNBS intake with a LS3 90mm TB.
some pics of the intake
Figured it would be a good time to replace the knock sensors and the wire harness. They didn't look that bad. Gotta love living in the desert.
And the new intake with the LS3 90mm TB.
have to figure out how I'm going to run the intake tube. I had the upper radiator hose flipped so that it would clear the intake tube. Now it gets pinched between the tb and the tube. I could co back to the old K&N intake setup. But I really liked the way the Volant and the 4" intake tube worked. All I have left to do is fab a egr bracket since I am no longer running egr, install the 160* thermostat and install the new tune. Trying to get everything ready before test and tune at SIR Saturday night.
