Umm...I'd like my truck to be running sometime before 2010

If I could get my truck up high in the air and get a pressure washer on it I'd clean it up, but I don't think that's likely.

haha time for a 2 post lift Chris, or you could just jack the front up really really high at a car wash and just degrease and pressure wash the bottom, thats what did at lexus. Quick off topic note, Chris it was 5 degree hotter there then there, i moved to a worse place!

1/4" pipe to -6AN fittings in the trans, 90* -6AN to hose barb, -6 pushlock hose

Gotcha covered in the original post

Thanks

I'm going to be out of town from June 10-22, so there will be about a 2 week hold on things while I'm gone. Hopefully everything I need will be here after that so I can hit the ground running when I get back.

I don't think enough people told you so... "You have the filter backwards".
I like this one thread idea...makes it easier to follow along what's going on!
Looks good, keep up the nasty work. btw I didn't know that you were black!
