Some fancy pics to end what i assume will be the driveable weather for this thing. Dash says 220miles on it, runs good for 9lbs, think im gonna throw a 12lb spring in it and call it good for pump gas and see what it runs come spring then start working with e85 on the holley maybe.
just a short winter list hopefully of odds and ends to do, besides the heat output im happy so far with everything fingers crossed. Debating on weather to take it to world of wheels show this winter, but im not much of a car show person so its doubtful

Damn I love this truck. The wheels look sick too, just not a fan of the weld center caps. One day I’d like to pull the trigger on a Syclone or Typhoon.

thanks and i agree on the caps, i have them cut down as much as i can and still clear front axle stubs. Would just leave them out but hubs will start rusting eventually and look bad.

Drove it to and from the track, weighs 3640 without me so 3900 with me, lots of heavy stuff on it.
12lbs peak on pump gas, shifted from 1st to 3rd pretty much, need to figure that out as it didnt do it on the street testing, then get testing with e85 and see what 15or16lbs and some timing does. As of right now its just as fast on the street as it is on the track, just not sure how far the turbo choke point will let me take it..
