After having my own shop and doing the swap with simon, I will never again have another shop build anything of mine... sure I will get help, but the work will be done at my shop for the most part.

Hands on is what really makes it special. Keep up the good work, see you tomorrow for lunch!
I'm just teasing guys!! Don't take my lame sarcasm too seriously!!

So I think I'm gonna need a new valley cover seeing that the current one has been hacked and epoxied due to the previous set-ups, and I'm gonna have to get some ARP bolts for the converter to the flex plate. The converter only came with three bolts and if I have to buy new ones might as well be ARP ones right?? Meaning do I need all 6 or will 3 be plenty?

There is more than enough IMO, 3 bolts has held up to a lot more than you're going to put it through, no offense intended towards your setup of course

Nice son! I like it..... We still need to see the cali neighbors though.

I would go ahead and do the ARP bolts. You may not need them at the moment but I'm sure this truck will get lot crazier in the future. Better to do it now than later.

Actually this weekend I visited an uncle of mine who is the chief mechanic for a Major airline company and he and I talked shop for quite a while and I think I came up with an excellent idea of a power boost!
Not gonna happen till I have more loot though cuz it's gonna be $$. And no it's not a jet engine...I don't have that kinda money that's for sure but I want to be different, Kyle already did what I wanted to do so it's time to raise the bar!!

When you coming out here Cody? I will introduce you to Bill's new step-daughter! She's really sweet!

Cali neighbors is another story.
I'm gonna give Richard a call tomorrow, I'm shooting for 800rwhp eventually so I guess just for peace of mind I'll go ahead and do it.
