Unfortunately my job is really starting to pick up as well as SBChvy's job so I probably the truck will be sitting for a while until after April or so. We might be able to work on the tune some more here and there but everything else is gonna have to wait.

Depends on how you want to proceed, some people don't want to have to deal with a switch, they just wanna have to romp on the pedal and go nuts, me personally, I could wait the 3 seconds it took to open the cut-out. That and a loud truck gets OLD FAST.

You know, that is probably one of the best sounding trucks on the board in my opinion.

Well finally got a chance to work on the truck again. I wasnt able to get many pictures but I got a video finally! We were able to patch the floor, put the new carpet in, new center console, bend the shifter, cut the valence and I put a small section of 3" exhaust on the down pipe with a dump. Also put on the catch can but didnt take any pics of it yet. Truck is a blast to drive and I cant wait to continue working on it. We had problems with the fuel pump, its whining like a SOB and the fuel pressure is low so I ordered a new one. We changed the fuel filter and that didnt help so Ill just replace the pump. The other big project is we need to install the 14 bolt rear with the tru-trac and the go have some fun!
